Official Discussion Thread for "ESO Live: January 19 @ 6:00pm EST"

ZOS_GinaBruno · January 2018

This is the official discussion thread for the blog article ESO Live: January 19 @ 6:00pm EST. This Friday at 6pm EST, we'll be joined by ESO's Lead Combat Designer Eric Wrobel and Systems Designer Chris Balser to have a deeper look at the Outfit System, Home Storage system, Level Up Advisor, and Skills Advisor. In addition, we'll have an in-depth discussion about some of the combat and balance changes coming to ESO in February. We'll be answering your questions throughout the show, and will have some exciting giveaways as well. See you then!

Hmm... this looks a lot like the armour storage mannequin we have been asking for. I'm looking forward to this ESO live, even with the technical problems the last one was really good.

SantieClaws · January 2018

So late the time! When the moons they rise Khajiit she must sleep.

No ESO Live for Khajiit this week then

This one she does not know the reasons for the time change and is sure they are good but perhaps it may be possible to vary the time of the show between one that is acceptable for some travellers and one when Khajiit is still awake.

Yours with paws

Yay, it would be cool to have them but probably they will introduce it later and now we only get the chests

SturgeHammer · January 2018

Will the January Combat Update be posted before the show?

Cinbri · January 2018

1. Will we get option to hide tabards at least on release?
2. Will there anything be done regarding shieldstacking?
3. Will we get ever robust/arcane black rose jewels?
4. Does monster spawn sets will be improved by allowing heavy attack to control spawned monster?
5. Bug fixes incoming?

Elsonso · January 2018

Hopefully, we can get the "why are we paying Gold to dye outfits" question addressed.

Also, I want to know if the HIDE HELMET will still hide COSTUME helmets. For my happiness, this needs to be retained. Some of those costumes have hideous helmets and I hide them for a reason. Dark Shaman, I am lookin' at you.

CavalryPK · January 2018

Thanks for the ESO Live. I am looking forward to this event more than going home to my 2 year old and letting her torture me until its sleep time.

Regardless, I would like to hear the following discussion:
1. Night blade syphoning tree. - Last time you said you are working towards converting this in the NBs main healing tree in pvp and PVE.
2. Zaan's monster set. - Per forum posts this set is over performing. I played with this in PTS and I felt the OPness as well.
3. Cyrodill - Anything to promote small scale ?

Thanks,

Rohamad_Ali · January 2018

Thank you for listening to Us for what we are wanting to see on the show . Also , any chance we can meet who the Lag Dev is soon ? A whole show dedicated to addressing lag . It's been a little laggy lately .

Yes, according to the pts report on https://eso.mmo-fashion.com/outfit-designer/

"Hide Helmet has been moved from Gameplay Settings. You now have two options for hiding your head piece depending on which apparel is visible.

Costume / Equipped Armor – Hide Your Helm in Collections under Hats
Outfit – Right click head piece or use the Hide Helmet option in the main editor at the top of the Head section"

Cinbri · January 2018

why does it go so late now

Vanthras79 · January 2018

Wrobes and Balser are back on the show. I wonder if the camera's are up and running?

I’d be interested in hearing more on this decision and possible alternatives in the future. Ouch

i want to see some love to stam dks

a guy can dream....

Agalloch · January 2018

1. When you'll make an upgrade to your infrastucture to handle more people in Cyrodiil?

Remember Midyear Mayhem event when servers crashed because too much people wanted to play PVP?

2. Why not have Battlegrounds with 2 options : 1. CP enabled 2. NO CP Enabled ?

3. Any news about code optimisations?

4. When we will have more sustain ? ( we need some redo of the combat changes arrived with Morrowind)

There are so many threads about the lack of sustain that come with Morrowind. 80-90% of the players are not elitists ..so we need more fluidity in combat.

When we will have more freedom in making our builds ..when Heavy Attack Meta will be no Meta?

Now we are almost forced in making heavy attack builds. If not...we are crap.

5. Stamina DK is one of the weakest class in PVP . Any changes coming ?

6. Can you introduce base game Trials in the group finder?

7.Can you introduce some features to save our builds and CP distribution? ( I know...on PC there are addons...but..)?

8. How about some new gear ( unique..EPIC ) very hard to find in the game?

English is not my native language.

VelociousLegend · January 2018

1. Anything to address the heavy armor meta in PvP? (similar damage to medium but much more tanky)
2. Any plans on how to further encourage spreading out the population in Cyrodiil?
3. Warden balance? (warden in PvP is OP and warden in PvE is lack luster)

Cinbri · January 2018

Will there be decrease of ap gain for 3rd place on bgs to promote active gameplay instead of afking?

riberion · January 2018

Seriously loving the time change! Actually allows me to watch it since before it always aired when I was at work.

IwakuraLain42 · January 2018

I don't like the new time slot either, it means the show airs way after midnight for most Europeans. This is a bad change compared to the old time slot.

Valykc · January 2018

Can you address game performance please?

@ZOS_GinaBruno

Recremen · January 2018

Heeeey will we get to talk about the per-use gold cost of the outfit system today? Maybe a bit about if there are plans to get rid of the cost for ESO+ members?

At first I was like, "Uhh.. 6:00p.m. is hardly late, but then I saw you're EU server so I assume you also live in Europe. With that in mind, has there ever been data released showing the breakdown of playerbase and global location?

I'm guessing ZoS would want to appeal to the largest potential audience, and for a moment let's pretend 75% of the playerbase is located in the United States. Of that 75%, roughly 90% probably have a job or are in school. 6:00 EST corresponds to 3:00 PST. With this timing, they improve the odds of US-based players to be off work / home from school in order to catch the ESO Live broadcast.

I feel for the EU players who may be required to stay up late to hear it, but my guess is they are just trying to appeal to the US audience.

Peeks into current ESO Live thread to try claim owed prize from last ESO Live.

News was that EU characters will be copied to PTS on SUNDAY. (it was hard to hear with the robot audio)

Also, PC Live "security" patch on Monday.

Thanks. Should have expected something like that... Does nothing for me. 1; I play it on PS4, and 2; I am NA anyway, not EU...

Serious, repeated audio glitches on both Twitch and YouTube. Crashed completely shortly before Giveaways. YT restream just repeated the problematic first stream. @ZOS_GinaBruno, @ZOS_JessicaFolsom, please post ETA for fixed YT or Twitch stream or if "irrecoverable error".

Time for new streaming contractor?
