What is the funniest thing about the PC transfer to the console?

psufan5 · June 2015

For me it is breaking up an entire siege by a low level raid group all by yourself. As a nightblade I start in the back and pick off the guys running the siege. You go through about 5 of them before they realize what is happening and then you have 60 level 10-30's chasing you for a quarter mile across the map. It is the definition of kicking an anthill. Circle back and burn all of their siege, rinse, repeat

.

All in all the console has been pretty amazing. Far more people PVPing and absolutely zero lag.

Ive had couple of those myself too. Why to put more non-veteran campaigns to the game as you can send noobs into slaughter machine. Im simply amazed anybody have not whined about this yet.

I think it is because they are all having a blast. Sure I can take out 10 at a time, but they are getting better at the game trying to take me down, and I am also getting better with attacking multiple targets. Given that you cant lock on to a target, it becomes a challenge for sure.

pecheckler · June 2015

Listening to hundreds of players complain that there is only one non vet campaign and it had a 4 hour queue so they are forced to be completely destroyed by transferred players in other campaigns.

Seriously why would a new platform launch with only one vet campaign? Does anyone at Zenimax think about this basic stuff?

Solo defending keeps on the first day, lol. I farmed over 150k ap on non vet the first day doing that. They literally wouldn't ever roll out of the oil aoe and just stood there fighting guards as they front doored everything lmao.

I watched a dude legit shooting a keep with standard bow attacks, instead of sieging.

The fight before that, 3 dudes pushed a ram 50 ft out, towards a keep and only got half way before whiping...

I wonder how long. I can kill them with 3 shots.

So amateurish by Zen again, they didnt even bother to look how many new campaigns they need.

dlepi24 · June 2015

I honestly think they're all having a blast no matter what. 90% of the people are their level/skill level. It's just every once in a while they run into someone like us who just understands the game better and has better gear/cp's and can just roll them, lol. Everyone I've met so far on console and all my friends are truly enjoying PvP and have gotten hooked on it. Just the queue times are awful now. I never would've imagined that all those servers plus like the 3 they implemented would all be full. That's crazy.

You're right, thinking has never been their strong point. From allowing transferred gold copies, the midnight launch debacle, the no console chat, goes on and on.

The non vet campaign is a blast but the queues are crazy, 6 hour queue last night. On the other hand the vet campaigns are so full of players, keeps are changing hands at a much faster pace than I've ever seen on PC so the alliance points are still raining in.

Good, keep coming to A. Star. The dominion welcomes you

The funniest thing to me has been how mad other pc players get about character transfers and console players don't care about them being too op

Dalglish · June 2015

A lot of the players ive played with and enemies alike, are just excited to see how powerful their characters can become (obviously at the moment its too much due to the level divide).

Siege mentality is quite funny, near every keep on the map has multiple destroyed walls with no-one repairing, assuming the vast majority don't even know how to fix them!

All the new players don't really care. They're just there to have fun. Win or lose

Yeah being trolled by transfers is NOT what most SANE people would call "fun" !

The funnest and best thing about the transfer to console is that I didn't.

All The Best

And no one ever rides around the keep to check for holes in the walls. They just arrive and start blasting away haha.

Most don't know pc were allowed to transfer

That is because ZOS marketed the game as a "New" game and gave it a name like Tamriel Unlimited.
You cannot blame them though. Sales were hit hard enough by the people that did not buy it because of the transfers.

I myself am enjoying the game even though I did not get to transfer. Will I be enjoying it after I get all of my characters to end game? Probably NOT due to the huge advantage transferring players had. This is sad honestly because I really want to enjoy this game for a long time, but with the only end game content being PvP that will be hard to enjoy.

All in all though the game really is a masterpiece:)

dlepi24 · June 2015

I take back my original post. I just witnessed an entire group wipe to the daedroth at the imperial city doorway. Probably one of the funniest things I've seen (only because I did the same thing last year).

i would say that PvP is going to be the only good thing for Transfers..

unless your entire PvE guild came with you, dont expect to do Trials on Consoles for a while.

btw, has there been any guilds that transferred enough that have completed a trial yet?

AbioticViper · June 2015

I tried PVP once and quit after and have stopped since. Transfer players have kinda ruined it a little for me so I'm waiting till I'm a little higher level so my group can take on these players when there soling it.

You need to try it more than once to be good at it. There are so many mechanics to it that it will take a while to understand everything. Hell, no offence but I'm sure your build isn't managed very well (don't worry, my first toon was so screwed I made it my master crafter). These are the times to play PvP though because everyone is just like you. Nobody knows what they are doing, the best way to get better is to play. Don't worry about the occasional v14 you run into, just go have fun. PvP might not be for everyone, but you won't know if you've only played it once.

Galaxyblade13 · June 2015

For me it's that one transfer stopped my group (which was holding a farm against three times the number of players we had) pretty much by sheer fear factor. After he killed half of us we ran and hid shivering in a burned down house just sitting around. Then he used shadow cloak to get in there with us after all his allies missed us, used fear ability to make us run out of the shelter, and then he wiped all of us. It was terrifying. P.s. In case it wasn't obvious this is from my experience as a victim of a transfer

Pman85 · June 2015

i like having a sweet mount that rides 60% faster than everyone else. Its kinda ballar, even though i should of transfered over more than just one of my measly alts. I dont see me going back to pc (even thought i sorely miss playing ESO in 4k def). so maybe i should of brought over my main and some crafters as well. #damnit #captainhindsight

I LMAO reading this. Maybe because I'm a transfer? They really seem to enjoy it when I have 20 of them chasing me down. Idon't farm them but many of seem to group up and farm VR14s. As long as we are both having fun, right

I made 3 level 45ish toons all decked out to pillage the non-vet campaign. After farming 150k in the first day I just went and made a new character, lol. It just wasn't fun essentially being a boss enemy to people who can't even figure out to roll and break out of cc's and roots lol. I've been having a blast though on my new character.

I would too if I was still earning Champion Points.
