My point of view.

I think we're at a point where different platforms should just be flat out different. Even more than before.

For PC...I get it cause it's what many are use to. I'm not in favor of it nor do I even use the life bars, name, etc. sometimes I don't even use SCT it's just the environment, the visuals and me

For Xbox one
-No.
here's what's happening. The game is being divided more and more by each UI change.

There's the you must turn on text chat folks
There's the you must use voice chat folks
There's the you need this and this on

Choices aren't good when the impacts are so broad. Personally I want ZOS to pick something and that's it.


This isn't some game changing idea but it does impact gameplay specifically because it's only for group play where it matters.

So because you want to be oblivious to whats happening you want your entire platform to suffer? More information is a good thing, allows for more efficient completion of group content.

@Ghost-Shot

No ones oblivious on console. We all talk cause it's voice ingame or via the console in addition to having text chat. It's unnecessary to have more crap on the screens.

It's a different environment and pace

@NewBlacksmurf It's not unnecessary though, there are plenty of situations where coms need to be kept as clear as possible so important calls can be made and heard by the team. vMol for example, all 3 boss fights need a good raid lead making appropriate calls, especially for groups in progress mode. In group pvp, small or large, you have someone timing proxies and ult dumps or calling focus targets. When you have people calling out for orbs or shards to keep resources up, it clutters coms and creates problems, this is an easy solution that has no downside. Even if you feel you don't need it, what could possibly be the downside?

@Ghost-Shot

It's completely unnecessary.
It's at best a preference and just additional info

I can also tell you. Console is VERY different than PC whether it be Trials or PvP.
It's different by design from the developers of both the game UI and the console itself.

The people many times are similar and the same but if you and I were in a trial on PC and temhen you joined me on console...the only similarities would be the fight is the same. The talk and convos are drastically different.

Imagine playing in trials 100% vanilla in the gamepad UI with no mouse, no keyboard, medium graphics and no add-ons or alt tab to option for anything you may run while gaming


It's just different and I can relate having done both

I asked you what the downside is to having more info, and I would hardly call more info unnecessary, but if you are not arguing for the sake of arguing, what is the downside? What negative effect would seeing the stamina and magicka pools of group members have on the game?

@Ghost-Shot

Need - can't do without
Necessary - a need

It's not needed or necessary it's a desire and that's cool but it's not for me. I'm not interested in all the junk on the screen now cause it's been very intuitive without all the stuff even before console released.

The downside doesn't matter cause you and whomever want something and I don't.
The negative impact however was already answered previously.

When you add UI stuff you divide players because some will and some won't so what happens is people choose to exclude or seperate into groups like today

The text chat group
The voice chat only group
The SCT and health bar group
The elite jerks group
Etc.

That what more and extra unnecessary info creates. It is what it is.

Ok so you don't like and therefore want nobody to have it? Your world and we're just living in it right? No one knows if you have sct on btw and playing without group hp bars just seems dumb.

And you guys really need to stop complaining about the "elite jerks", casuals rarely get to interact with actual elite players because elite players tend to play with other elite players. You are confusing try hard scrubs who think they're elite for actual elite players and there is a big difference. Just because that guy payed one of our guilds a few million to carry him though vmaw to get that skin doesn't mean he's good, most of those are the type who when they die, we don't res them because its easier if they stay down.

@Ghost-Shot

Please stop. Scroll up and read

I did...
