PVP Rank 50

Methuselah · May 2015

I'm making this post for a friend of mine who is dissapointed with reaching 49 and then 50 and not receiving a new symbol (among other things). I think we can all agree Grand Overlord should give a sick symbol, maybe your factions icon? It dosent suprise me that you can't get the achievement for killing a Grand Overlord nor is there a symbol for it. I mean, look at everything else that needs fixing for over a year. This isnt as important as balance, nirnhoned, or using multiple potions things of that nature. So I would assume it to be working 2020. Lets not be to optimistic though.

Am I the only one that finds it peculiar that all ranks work without issue except 50?

Did they fix the wrong order of rank symbols for prefect and praetorian in the alliance menu already?

Also, you are Grand Overlord with rank 49, wich doesn't give the achievement, too, right?

Rank 31-34 is still with changed symbols.

the idea of making your symbol become your factions symbol when you hit 50, that's a cool idea.

cant be that hard to implement.

I can't imagine fixing this would take them longer then 10 minutes... Seems like a simple issue. Spending 10 minutes of their time just isn't worth it for one player so it's probably buried on the bottom of their to do list.

This is a great idea.

You sound like a Project Manager.

We'll get a hot fix for the icon and achievement to work in a year

But before that, you can rest easy knowing we'll be receiving: Smoother walking animations, better water effects, improved block animations, more NPC chat options, etc.

Not 100% sure, I want to say he did get the achieve. But if someone kills him they dont get the "kill grand overlord" achieve

It doesn't need to be working until 2020. 999 out of 1000 players won't get to PvP rank 50 until then.

Yeah, I meant the "kill a grand overload" achievement ofc

Upon reaching rank 49 i.e Grand Overlord you get the achivment for reaching said rank but you keep the icon from overlord. The kill achivment for killing a grand overlord is bugged too. They did fix the pretorian rank bug back in the days (when it was a red ?) But they cannot fix this.. Cant be a hard issue.

Maybe they fix it if you get your second char to Alliance rank 50

I have a feeling that the no enemy alliance icons bug (ultimate immersion mode) will return if they touch this.

Actually, i've been a programmer for 30+ years (with many years in the gaming industry) and i agree with the 10 minutes estimate.
Now, of course the project manager would never bill it as 10 minutes, that's a 4 hour job right there for the programmer and another 4 hours for QA. That then gets added to the list of know bugs which is sorted by priority.
And since project managers don't like anything with high priority on their project lists, it'll be downgraded to the lowest possible priority and end up all the way on the bottom of the list.
Where it then quickly gets forgotten.

The real problem is that the people who are in charge of the bug and feature list (you know, the project managers) are usually *not* gamers.
They do not understand our frustration with little bugs like that. They simply don't.
Which is why a simple 10 minutes fix will hang around for months or years.

Anyways, that has been my experience as a gaming programmer and i somehow doubt ZOS is run any different.

As a fellow brogrammer, I was poking fun at Mojar. The PM would personally confess 'this would take you 5m right?', and bill half a day.

The bug list is probably the length of Egypt right now.

PeggymoeXD · May 2015

Sitting on walls after hardly contributing to the battle and /yelling for all pugs to keep pushing so their D tick is better deserves no such "sick symbol."

I do agree they should change the symbol from 49 to 50 though. Something like a middle finger, as a message to the players who actually fight and earn the AP for the players who insist on doing next to nothing. Especially if it's not with a group over 20 people.

Francescolg · May 2015

You shoud think further!

- PvP Ranks should give much more than just a skill point:
- The PvP world is still "empty", there could be significant NPCs having small %-drop chances for very rare items, etc-

Actually there is just the incentive to farm PvP dungeons for the Martial Knowledge set BUT much more could be done to convice people to join Cyrondil... Even the new PvP-Zone is not enough, imo. What do I waste my time.. :-(

Stating that Crystalized hardly contributed to the battle when you have never been part of any of his group since the release of the game and have probably never had a discussion with the guy..

I don't know from where you get that frustration but you should probably not bash on people like him who are in part responsable for winning campaigns several times for the Pact.

I'm pretty sure that even if he would not have waited for defense ticks, he would still be at least Warlord today with all the time and energies he spent since release.. and for the people telling him to go shower and have a job, he already has a job + school like everybody else. so please have a minimum of respect, ty

Regardless of whether or not he "earned" warlord, I actually never even referred to a specific player. I was just putting my opinion out there is all.
