Islands

Parcellus · August 2023

The fair winds is now for sale in the crown store

It would be great to have small islands (or even a mini archipelego) to have as additional abodes, which could be added to the ships destinations.
The possibilities are pretty much endless.

The ship is stationery and the water moves around it. It would be nice if the background changed occasionally to at least make it look like it is actually sailing. Having additional drop off locations or additional places you can enter it would be great.

WTB random encounters while on the ship.

Weren't you going to be able to chose to "go" to the three Alliance capitals to dock? Or did I misunderstand what was being said?

There's another ship on the left side that moves incredibly fast and there are sea snakes on the right side, supposedly there's a mob type tailing behind the ship but I haven't seen it yet. The rest of the scenery is High Isles circling it clockwise.

It's advisable to take it unfurnished as there aren't any notable furniture that comes with it that stand out and everything is thinly spread out. If you have a bunch of skeleton target dummies this is a great home to have a skeleton crew running your ship!

Actually they did just sell the island that goes with this. It's the fogbreak lighthouse.

what good would islands be since there is No Water travel, or methods of flying ?

I suppose you could swim in your full plate, but thats not very immersive,

wilykcat · August 2023

Eso first needs to add in underwater swimming and combat. Then they need to add in a boat system similar to what guild wars 2 has.

Also to make more uncharted islands both at sea and in the sky.

The travel to floating sky islands, eso needs to add in gliders and other flying abilities. That will include usable wings as a back item that can have the option to be visible or hidden.

Now about GM Island.

The engine won't allow for any z-axis movement, so no - no swimming, no flying. If you can't live without those, you can always go back to other games that have them.

PieMaster1 · August 2023

I do hope they add in a visual update to the new home. The revolving high isle background just looks so BAD, the graphics are blurry and 240p lol. It also really needs some sort of loop where they don't just disappear and reappear in the air like an old western movie

It's weird though, because the ship itself is perfect in my opinion. You can walk on the ropes outside crows nest and pretend to be jack sparrow

The z-axis represents depth and elevation.

What about jumping, sliding down cliffs, falling, being knocked into the air, certain dungeon boss abilities lifting stuff around or into the air, and flying pets. That stuff and those movements are up there.

Oh man, half way through last year, I remember speculating with a friend what the last 2 event ticket items would be, and considering that the year before we got Doomchar Plateau, I was really hopeful for a Beach Island house. We did get the Hour Glass, which was just as amazing though.

But I still keep my finger's crossed that we'll get another house from the Impressario, because that was awesome.

I don't go on the PTS very often, but I had heard someone mention that. I don't mind it very much, because mounts are rather uncommon, unless you want to pay crowns for them, so I'll take it.

Still, next year? Hoping for a house... Either that, or some sort of collectable that controls the weather in houses. I'd be happy with either honestly.
