Just to make sure we're all on the same page, once Update 6 is released and you have at least one Veteran Rank character, all your characters will receive 30 Champion Points - no more, no less.

A few months ago, it was said that we were tracking XP. However, this was still early in development and through internal testing and feedback, found that we needed to change our plans (and, honestly, this quite normal through the course of development). We understand that this was, indeed, a major change from what we were originally planning. In an effort to be open with everyone about how things were going and what was planned, it caused a great deal of confusion, and we sincerely apologize for that.
As it has been said a number of times, we certainly encourage you to hop on the PTS once this is available in January and try out the system. This is also a great chance to plan how you'd like to build your character once it's live!
Hope you all are enjoying the holidays, and we'll see you in the new year.
although i dont agree with this...i am very grateful on the timeliness of response and the fact it was during a holiday. Going forward ill be more careful how i interpret things that are said about things being tracked. have a good one guys and see you guys in 1.6

It has been 9 days since ESO live and this became an issue. If they were competent they would have responded that night. You expectations are far to low.
these folks have families also to be with during the holidays

Well, I have 2 days off for Christmas and 2 days off for New Year, I work the days between those two holidays... and I actually save lives in a hospital (not that it actually matters, but I can see from here people saying, well it's your fault for working a garbage minimum salary job, you worthless scum...Internet people are so nice...)
I don't expect people at ZOS to have 2-3 full weeks off leaving the game/forums in that state because they make video games or whatever...

Healthcare jobs serve a vital function and are in short supply. We knew what we're sacrificing our personal lives when we signed up for it.
I don't think video game development is vital (or in short supply for that matter), they're allowed the luxury of a life.

Should players that are VR1+ still work towards VR12 or should they just wait until the new changes.
Continue to play! We are tracking your XP as you advance your way through Veteran Ranks and even past VR14. When the Champion System comes out we will reward you points right away based on the amount of XP you have earned up to a cap.

I know you guys want to be transparent and open but you don't say something as fact and currently operational then pawn it off as early development/testing screwing over a good portion of your player base.
This company is terrible with communication as evident with in game skills tooltips and on these forums. I understand it's the holidays, but I'm appalled that it took you guys this long to provide a simple response to the confusion that has been festering the forums since eso live. Unacceptable.
If youre sincere about your apology how about compensating us for your lack of direction and clarity? Many people lost a lot of valuable time and completed content that should have waited due to the expectation of xp being tracked.
This answers one of my questions. Looks like I have about a month to focus and get one of my characters up to VR before that happens.ZOS_GinaBruno wrote: »once Update 6 is released and you have at least one Veteran Rank character, all your characters will receive 30 Champion Points - no more, no less.
