We are currently investigating connection issues some players are having on the European megaservers. We will update as new information becomes available.

Suggest adding Lockpicking tutorial back into the tutorial.

A new player won't get a chance to pick locks until into the "real" world, and its a complex process for a new player, not quite like other games. The original game had a small, short trial chest to take a try at. I think that would be a great thing to add back into the tutorial for new players.

    Morrowind had this as well. Strange thing to get rid of from a tutorial. It's super easy, but you won't know how to do it without an explanation (even now, you get posts on the forums/subreddit about CP-level players complaining that lockpicking is too difficult, when it turns out they actually don't udnerstand how it works).

    I just remember trying to learn it in the base game beta. I cursed a lot. True, it took a lot of work for them to balance difficulty and stuff, but at some basic point especially now its just a matter of learning where to move the cursor and see/hear the feedback. I think a new player would have a lot less frustration if given a test-chest in tutorial to grasp the basics and maybe even be guided with a quick sentence or two.
