I had no issues, but I have heard, that because of dailies the world bosses, the delves and public dungeons are really hard. While the world boss is usually full of players, I'm not so sure about delves.
And are suppose to be Craglorn Delves impossible to do with 2 people? The last boss in Hircine Haunt was hitting for 20k hps...

I'm loving almost all of the changes, but something is happening graphically.

My game seems a lot more...grainy.

I'm running everything on Ultra and still getting 60+ FPS like before. I haven't changed any settings, either - in-game or in my NVidia control panel.

But everything still seems a bit more gritty than before, and I have no idea how to fix it.

i have the exact same problem. on top of that, my game often feels like it's on low fps, however fps meters still show decent numbers

There are a few new bugs but I guess they will solve them with some patch, that's normal.

About the features, I don't like at all the level scaling, because now the game is more...flat. You can go anywhere or fight anyone and it's more or less the same.

I also don't like the factions mix. Now we can see enemies in our cities, which doesn't make sense to me.

Now I see more sense in wearing faction specific armors, to separate lords and vagrants .

Haven't got a chance to play yet (and will probably wait until the novelty dies down a bit) so specific question: Can you still identify ppls alliance in PvE via their name tag? (Pls no)

Yes, you can tell their alliance by an indicator next to their name.

Which leads to some funny moments. I took my DC player to Auridon and as soon as I stepped off the wayshrine, four ADs sent me duel requests. It was fun - although we did take it up the road a bit away from the wayshrine.

I actually thought I'd set my dueling to auto-decline but still haven't done so. If I don't want to fight, I just decline and keep moving. There's no tension or anything, I just move on and they do too. I'm not saying there's not problems but I haven't seen them yet.

Levels now feel very soft. A 300-ish CP challenged me to duel last night while I was running a quest and I turned him down. He kept at me and so I decided to just get it over with. My character was 180 NB DPS and his was a sorc of some kind. I really thought he'd drop a couple of spells and I'd be dead, but what actually happened is he was dead in like six hits by me. I remember thinking, "Wow, is that it?" So levels aren't everything.

In four hours of gameplay, I was able to go anywhere and grab bunches of easy skyshards, but the game also felt "flat." People keep saying it's similar to the "Elder Scrolls" experience, but only if you compare it to Oblivion and possibly Skyrim (with the delves, etc., being the high leveled areas of Skyrim). It's nothing like Morrowind, of course.

So you scale, and the world scales around you, which feels unrealistic. The game is a tad harder (it's a little harder to kill mobs now) but I took a low level character (level 8) to the highest level zone in her faction and she did fine without me even activating any skills. None. Just light and heavy attacks and a lot of roll dodging. To be clear, she could die and fights with basic mobs took a bit (and she wasn't taking on trolls) but she killed a couple of dozen no problem.

Bosses are a lot harder. I think that's awesome but there was a lot of grumbling about it in zone. I love coming up a delve and seeing that huge health bar pop up.

But even though the difficulty has been raised, the game feels softer and easier than it did before. I can go where I want which means I can grab a few dozen skyshards easily. It makes exploration fun but doesn't necessarily encourage it: I can park in a zone and grind out an entire character.

There are more people of course but that just means more reason to ignore zone chat. If anything, the game feels less social than it did before.

Just some first impressions after four hours of gameplay.

One Tamriel is great period.

I am just glad that I got my savior of nirn title right before the update, otherwise i'd probably have to camp every dolmen before it spawns.

apart from the eu log in thing and the way prov writs have gone weird.....

if anything it looks even better - i play 4k. new quests from mages and fighters guild are fun. really hasn't been time enough to explore all the ramifications.

so far so great....

I am actually surprised at the amount of love its getting. I am very happy to hear it. Hopefully when it hit on PS4 it goes a little smoother.

- Tamriel feels more alive than ever! People everywhere!

- No mats found anywhere! This is a real issue ZOS has to fix!

I suspect there's a direct connection between those two points, there are probably plenty of mats but they're being harvested before you can spot them. Once things quieten down a bit things should return to normal.

Elder Lag Online

This has been my experience as well.

Most of my spells seem to be invisible now. Enemy HP bars stay full even after death so I have no idea how much damage I've done to them. Frequent slow down and pauses in game play.... and this is just while I was attempting to farm up some ore. I don't even want to imagine what trying to PvP would be like.

This update has some great changes. Scaled content and world bosses who actually pose a challenge. I was looking forward to exploring a Tamriel that wasn't so easy. Unfortunately most of the challenge comes from dealing with this intolerable lag I'm having and after about an hour I think I've had enough.

Either this update was horribly programmed or it has significantly increased the hardware you need to play this game. Either way - unless things change this game is pretty much over for me. It is unplayable for me in it's current state. Which is a shame, cause I really did enjoy this game.

First Impressions One Tamriel PC/MAC

try logging on from EU..............thats a good sign of whats to come.and thats before you even get into the game.......more bugs , more broken stuff.

Well... I'm STILL downloading.

1st) the patch
2) 40GB of re-download the entire game for who knows what reason
3) then download an extra 100MB file (after 1st having a patch manifest error)
4) now downloading a further 7 GB file for who knows what reason (and holding thumbs that this insanity of downloading will end soon)

I have know idea what One Tamriel is like, but I have VERY strong and negative feelings about the *******g patch process.

I only had to download 2 gb lol
