Stuff this game (and forum) needs. Devs please read.

Lucifer66

For one thing this forum needs a suggestion section. I don't know who set this forum up , but they did a horrible job. It's poorly organized and looks like they threw it up in 5 minutes just to say they had one. The English, French, and German section should be separated better so that when you select your language you aren't still seeing the others still listed. On to the game...

- World Market.
The Guild Store is a stupid idea. The best way to buy or sell is to have a competitive market system. If you only have a limited customer base and a limited selection nobody is happy. Just like if you only have 1 store in a city the owner is free to charge any outrageous price they want and you have to pay it. You also have a very poor selection of goods so you probably won't find what you need.

- Trade Channel
The Zone chat is full of people posting over and over trying to sell things because there is no World Market or Trade Channel. Obviously the Guild Store idea is a total failure. It's difficult to chat in the chat channel because it's taken up with trade offers and gold bots spamming constantly. You can report the gold spammer, but the process is long with the form you have to fill out and nobody wants to bother taking the time to do it so they go unchecked.

- No Moderators In Game
I haven't seen a single moderator in the game trying to control players or the gold spammers. If they are in the game they are busy watching football games, sleeping or reading a book because they sure are not talking or doing their job. They are relying on us to report everything and they made the process so long and drawn out that they know we aren't going to do it. That way they don't have to do anything. Now they want us to quit playing and go on the forums and post about it. HEY, WE ARE PAYING TO PLAY A GAME HERE, NOT DO YOU JOB FOR YOU. In fact I shouldn't even have to be taking my time away from the game to type all this out right now, you should have done all of this already.

- More Skill Slots
Why in the world is there only 5 skill slots? Every other game has at least 10. Most have 12. Your game has much more than 5 skills you can learn even at low levels. Have you ever even played other games? Why did you think it was a good idea to chop the action bar in half?

- Movable UI
Yes that's right. Some of us don't like the default layout of the UI and would like to be able to move the elements around and even resize them individualy. Also I noticed that when I make the UI smaller I get loads of lag. Maybe something can be done about that.

- More Onscreen Info
When I first started playing this game the very first thing I noticed was I couldn't tell hardly anything about what was going on in a battle. I didn't know what my health, magic or stamina was or what my enemy's stats were. I had to get an addon to tell me these things. I also had to get an addon for a mini map, and exp read out. Now yes I'm all setup, but this kinda thing should have already been in the game. Again you are relying on the players to do your job for you. I'm really wondering just what the hell we are paying you guys for, you should be paying us some kinda rebate.

- Cross Alliance PVE Play
Here is something that makes no sense to me. I get how you have alliance wars for PVP. That makes perfect sense. But not being able to play with people for PVE because they are in a different alliance makes no sense. This came up when my friends and I all bought this game with the intent to play together. We all made characters but were in different alliances and found out later that we couldn't quest together and had to start over. There should be a way to either play together because you are just fighting NPCs, or a way that you can change alliances. Hey people change sides in every world, I'm not saying that it would necessarily be free or easy to do, but it should be possible. Maybe you would have to do some kinda quest or fight your way out or something interesting.

- Bugs
Here are some bugs I have reported but never heard anything back about.
1. Chests and corpses can't be looted. I don't know why but I click on them and I get a sound like an error sound and it just won't open. Sometimes it won't even give me the option to open then thing at all like the then where it says "Press E to Open" doesn't even show up. It does this on barrels, crates, bookcases, locked chests, and even on quest items like stuff you need to open to obtain things you need to progress for the quest.

2. Frozen During Combat
I used to think this was some kind of stun, but it's not. It happens frequently where you can't move all of the sudden. You can still use skill and swing your weapon and you can't dodge or move at all. But if you press ESC twice or ENTER twice it frees you. Unfortunately, you are usually dead by then because you are a sitting duck and then you get a real stun. Like I said I thought it was a stun but several other people reported the same thing and they mentioned the ESC trick and it works.

3. Getting Charged Next To A Wall
This happened to me yesterday. I was in a cave and this mob charged me in a narrow passageway between a rock and a wall. It hit me and knocked me down like it usually does but the charge kept on repeating over and over like a machine gun until it killed me. It was kinda funny except it was hardly fair. I couldn't do a thing about it because I was on the ground.

That's all for now, I'll add more when I run into them. I know I had more ideas but I just can't think of them right now and I really want to just get back to playing. If anyone else has more to add feel free to post them.

You might want to copy paste the forums feedback into the pinned thread at the top of this section, the team working on the forums have been reading feedback there and even posting comments.

Mephos

nothing above counts for me except:

- Bugs
- Auctionhouse

rest is totaly fine. want to chang UI? use addon (like wow)
you want more informaiton? use addon (like wow)

I also don´t need a trading channel, just a auction house where everyone can place their stuff or the option to cross link unlimited guildstores (so you build your own auction house)

You missed the point, we shouldn't have to use addons for these basic things that should have already been in the game. And you can't change the position or the individual elements of the default UI even with addons. Yes I have addons to do many of the things that I need, but my point was it should have been there in the first place and the addons are just a hassle because they are a security risk, you have to keep updating them, and they are buggy.

OneForSorrow

I think the game is mostly fine. Some bugs need to be sorted out, I am okay with guild-specific economies (not what I am used to but I am adjusting).

Some thoughts on your points, though:

-Five slots: Yeah that can be annoying if there are a lot of abilities you want to use but at the same time it's not hard just dragging the abilities you want to the bar before certain encounters. My concern if they added more would be WoW-ification. I'm guessing a lot of people here have played WoW and in that game there are so many abilities that can be keybound that you play finger hop-scotch. Remember Wrath-era feral druids? The ESO system keeps that more simplistic so you can watch the screen which is important since dodge isn't a stat here, it's done manually. Same with blocks.

Mods: I've only seen a few mods so far but all of them have been actively getting rid of bots.

You know I posted this so people could ADD ideas, not just come here and gripe about the ones that I posted. You guys sound like marketing propaganda drones that work for Havok and Bethesda games sent here to shoot down anyone who asks for a change. Doesn't anyone have a mind of their own anymore?

Seriously, you really want to stop and change your skill bar every 5 minutes?
You only want to buy/sell from a few people instead of the whole server?
You don't want more control over your UI?
You don't care if the game is buggy?
You like Gold spammers?

What low standards you have. No wonder games suck these days. There's too many people who will buy anything no matter how crappy it is and say it's the best game ever. If you just want something simple then go buy a deck of cards and save some electricity while you are at it. Then you can tell people you are saving the planet too.

You realize that none of your feedback is new or unique, right? Some of the problems you're having are already being worked on; some are under debate; and some, like the UI, are long-settled - that's one you're going to have to suck up because it's not changing. If you can't figure out how to play your characters using the skill slots provided, then I feel bad for you. And you're wrong about addons being buggy. There are some very good ones out there.

Lucifer66

I can play my characters with the skill slots provided, but I want to be able to use MORE skills that I spent my points on. Otherwise why even have them in the skill tree? Why have more than 5 skills at all? And I don't know what addons you are using but mine have errors all over the place. I spend more time trying to get them to work right than playing the game. Then trying to get them to fit right with the default UI is even more of a pain.

But again, I shouldn't HAVE to use something someone else made to make the game work properly. It's like if you rent a hotel room for $200 and you get in the room and they tell you that you have to bring your own bed. I suppose that's OK with you, but I'm not falling for that. The game should come with a COMPLETE UI because that's what I paid for.

I think you people are crazy to accept that you have to pay $60 for a game plus a monthly fee and still download 3rd party bits and pieces to make it playable. There used to be a sucker born every day, I guess there's thousands born daily now. Hmm, maybe I should open a hotel....

I agree with some of your points, I would also like a General Pc & General console section, as there are issues unique to each other
