Absolutely Pumped for v3.0.0

This will force all of us to change the way we play as we learn what is in many ways a new combat system.
It'll attract new players (and purge some old ones). It'll open up new builds. It'll make a stale game feel fresh and exciting again. I can't wait.

Everyone will be attracted to the huge negativity surrounding it? Really?
Also if the game is so easy why is pugging near impossible with the last influx of scrubs? I fail to see how things are going to improve on this basis. New players don't learn anything. The game isn't intuitive at all. ZOS relies on steamers to do it for them...oh wait..PC Master Race

Just do like me, ignore them and wait for them to test it

I caught 2 of them who went from "this is good all the people complaining need to adapt" to "wtf is this ***, 3 aoe 15k magicka".

That negativity is generated by players throwing tantrums, not ZOS. Remember when I said there'd be a purge of old players? I welcome the purge.
It's interesting that folks rage on about how new players don't learn anything and effectively ruin the game when it's the old guard who cry and whine about having to relearn their class. The irony is delicious.6 -

For real, fam'...? You must not know just what awaits you.
Whatever comes, it definitely won't be the old ESO. That's dead.
I'm saying good riddance. I'm looking forward to learning a new meta. And look, it's going to be rough in the beginning, but that's exactly the kind of disruptive change the game needs right now. it's stale AF at the moment, and building on old mistakes won't make it any better.6 -

Since ZOS is going to remove stealth DMG bonus many Nightblades will find themself in a situation when ZOS removed core gameplay mechanics that NB are based on. There will be nothing more to learn if core mechanics of this class will be missing. Will ZOS introduce a new "combat system" ? I highly doubt it.This will force all of us to change the way we play as we learn what is in many ways a new combat system.
It is the equivalent of not letting sorcerers to summon pets or taking away templars healing bonus.1 -

I hear ya, but I have a really hard time believing that NBs are that fragile as a class.
My bow ganker will be just fine without the crit bonus. There are other advantages to attacking from stealth.0 -

Yeah of course. It's been a few months since Homestead (bear in mind not everyone lives in Tamriel 24/7) and bang this lands and you think ffs why bother farming all this gear, golding it up, learning how to do xyz for zos to *** on us with this.
I for one I am not raging about l2p and adapt etc I'm just bored shitless now with thier lack of imagination that thier idea of creating hard content is just nerfs and more health and more one shots. It's amateur. They need to just recruit new brains to move this forward. Nerfs aren't the answer. Rather than try and think outside the box....how about create another box...and we'll go wow that's new..not...oh look another nerf but this time a huge one all round bar the p2w class. Get us playing differently by giving different content. Not force us to by nerfing and creating an artifical difficulty increase.PC Master Race

I mean I get why this is frustrating to a lot of people who've had to grind for dozens of hours just to complete a single build. I'm one of those folks. However, we all knew that our gear wouldn't last forever. Our gear could've been made obsolete with any number of changes, including an increase to the gear CP cap. It'll happen eventually. *shrugs*
As for the lack of creativity, I feel like that's what we've been experiencing for well over a year now. This patch could potentially be the groundwork for more interesting class changes down the road. At least I hope so.0 -
Kode✭✭✭I think I may start playing more seriously again if these changes work out. I like the game but honestly the direction of the game wasn't for me. The game has been over simplified by giving players everything they could want to endlessly spam, and mindlessly roll and blob.
I don't think these changes alone will drastically affect those mechanics, but I am hopeful that they will playstyles and get ZoS on the right path away from the face roll play that we have had for the past 2.5 years.
The cone changes to breath of life are an awesome step in the right direction and I hope to see more AoE's following this path. I'd like to see AoE abilities get watered down a little bit to encourage the use of more focused single target skills, bolstered by AoE skills.
Also, if they can keep resources in check we will hopefully be looking at more intelligent uses of skills, calculated to need, not just because you can do it over and over without running out of resources.
Time will tell I suppose. The state of the game wasn't for me, I was left waiting for the next game. But lets see what this is all about...Kode Darkstar, Aldmeri Dominion1 -

Yeah.. of course... new combat system? The combat system will be the same, only difference is that you will hit less, will deal less damage, will run out of resources due to the various changes in CP and armour passives, and also the increase of the cost on many skills...to have to light or heavy attack, making the pace of the fight slower, boring... more difficult? yeah, maybe but in a boring way.
Monsters will do the same, there aren't any change on mechanics or anything that involves the dinamics during combat. As I say, same combat, just longer... and with the feeling that you are hitting monsters with a wet noodle.
Im up for a change, yeah, I like the challenge, and changes keep the game alive... but these changes, all this amount of useless nerfs are not in the right direction.

✭✭Never trust forums, I've worked in the games industry for more than 15 years, I've never had contact with a game or mmo where the forums represented more than 5 percent of players. It's just the internet doing what it always does, acting like a mirror and showing you what you want to see, rather than the big picture
For example, where I live litteraly everyone I talked to said they were going to vote for one particular political party but when the results came in the other side won by a landslide. Forums are a subjective reality not nessesarily an accurate one0 -

Somebody is breathing relief... maybe because majority of the good player base is taking a brake? U seem happier about the purge than the change itself, ill bet u can't wait for those new pugs to arrive with MW so u can feel important and actually kill something prehaps...?
Ill bet u started playing this game like 4 months ago...lol
