• PC/Mac: No maintenance – April 6

ZZO! It's time to either completely open or close the flood gates.

I just wish would ZOS updated their EULA and TOS. And revise them to allow everyone to enjoy Multi-Skill Macroing. That way it's not just players that use dummy accounts with nothing to lose enjoying the absolute full extent of animation cancelling. And that everyone of us. Even those of us who are DEDICATED SUPPORTERS to the game with HIGH VALUE ACCOUNTS can also enjoy the full extent of Animation Cancelling to it full extent too! Without risk to there account/s.

I can't even begin to count how many times either in duels or in Cyrodiil. Where I meet players that can pull off 5 to 8 different abilities and light attacks, with jumping over and over, with perfect precision, back to back until you die. This is something that you don't see in any other MMO that actively banns. Multi-button macro users and combat bots. This is only a issue here in ESO because of it's combat system and ZOSes lack of fair punishment towards players.

My topic is simple! ZOS should either completely allow it for ALL PLAYERS! Or bann all players who are doing it. NOT CHERRY PICK WHO THEY WANT TO BAN AND NOT BAN. I'm pretty sure even with their TOS. If enough proof on the user end was presented in court about Unfair account bans. ZOS would be liable to either restore said account or provide a full refund of all that account has spent of the game. In my account's case well over $2500 USD. Because at least over here in the US we have consumer protection laws for online data and accounts.

It's sad that it's even come to having to ask for such a thing. For the sake of all. Institute fair play for all or none! This is all I ask! Is it too much to ask from you ZOS?

    Don't you know it is all skill. A person executing 5 combos in 2 milliseconds could not posibly be a macro :s

    Yes I'm fully aware it's all skill.

    The skill of being able to program Macro software to engage such a combo with perfect precision every time.

    I too do this legally in games called Elite Dangerous, and Star Citizens. Because those devs. was all about FAIR PLAY FOR ALL! I don't know why ZOS can't adapt this as well. Since they are completely incapable of punishing most of the multi-combo macro users.

    This takes a million times more skills. Than the simple macro these ESO abusers are doing!


    OPEN THE FLOODGATES OR CLOSE THEM DOWN COMPLETELY ZOS!

    Ability to AC does not always mean someone is using a macro.

    Plenty of people AC/weave without macros

    And you would do this on consoles how, exactly? Furthermore, permission for players to ban bots without developer intervention would come along with this, right? Because I guarantee you botting will get an order of magnitude worse than it already is if this is allowed.

    Not everyone that killed you is using a macro or cheat engine. Some people are just better than you. A long macro (5-8 skills as you describe) in the lag fest that is Cyrodiil is likely a death sentence. I am not saying there arent people that use them here and there, but most good players would absolutely refuse to be locked into a sequence of events like that.

    Even a macro for something simple like a LA/weave is absolutely terrible even in a stable PVE environment. I have messed around with them a fair amount in the privacy of my own test dummy. I have never been able to use macros to achieve better results than what my fingers can do on their own.

    Ok guys, I'm not talking about animation cancelling so cool your defensive jets. I am one of those players who can post 30,000 to 37,000 dps by use of animation cancelling.

    I'm talking about players abusing multi-combo macros. To hit you with 6 or more abilities with light attack, while jumping all happening on prefect timing with no error. I would post videos of such but ZOS would rather sweep such under the rug and act like it's not happening rather than address and fix the issue.

    I'm not asking for your Animation Cancelling to be taken away from the game. I'm simply asking for FAIR PLAY FOR ALL. Either for them to allow multi-combo animation cancelling for all, or none!

    If you have something against such. Than I'm going to have to suspect your angle on this topic is malicious in nature. Because you are one of those who abuse such. And don't want others to do what you are doing at no risk to their high value account/s.

    You would think Global cool down isn't server side and people were using some sort of program to send in a bunch of commands all at once into the client. But nah that can't be happening. It's just pro players and lag.

    I used to play a game years ago, Asherons Call, where they had a pretty good stance on macroing (in my opinion). Anyone was able to use Macro or 3rd party Add-ons, but your game couldn't be "Unattended" meaning you couldn't just start the macro and go to work (which people might risk and potentially ended up being banned). The only difference with it was that Asherons Call had actual GMs in the game (at least for a majority of the game until it started to die out) and they'd do macro checks on accounts. It was nice, instead of mashing keys for hours grinding out a spot....you could start a combat macro, do your thing, and socialize with other people or do some side-work on a different screen while still watching your game.

    Under sub 80 m/s instances? I high doubt this to be the case. If you disagree show me a human on video with his screen and hands preforming the same 5 or more multi combo routine in under a sec. Consistently without error under sub 80 m/s conditions.

    I do fight players who are simply better them me. I shake them off and aim to improve myself to be better than them. They are not the issue.

    There is a reason this is only a rampant thing in ESO, and no other MMO or RPG that has Action combat system.

    Under non lag conditions sub 120 m/s.(Which is most of my PvP experience in ESO) I suspect that they have found a way to bypass the global cooldown. Which can be done with macro software and or CE.

    Under lag conditions, 200 m/s and up, I think it's just the server going haywire.

    Ah in that case, I believe most people are against being able to bypass the global cooldown. It was unclear in your original post what exactly was the issue you were complaining about.

    This doesnt even make sense. There is no scenario where pressing 5 buttons in under a second is going to benefit you in any way. Macros dont allow you to bypass global cooldowns. You cant fire more than one ability per second unless you are using a cheat engine, which is clearly against TOS. A lag spike at the wrong time can cause multiple things at once, but that is what it is. Certain skills with travel times can be combined to make it feel like 2 things are hitting at once, but that's about it.

    Even if you did writ the perfect macro script to weave 5 abilities with light attacks in under a second, it wouldnt do anything.

    Edit: as to those that hop around while doing this, what does that have to do with anything? If you use different fingers for jump, weapon swap, abilities, and light attacks, one has nothing to do with the other. Jumps are independent of global cooldowns as far as I know.

    But that still don't solve the issue. Unless you want to join in on the shenanigans, with a low value dummy account. Which is why I asking for FAIR PLAY FOR ALL or NONE at all! That way I can also compete with these types without risking my own high value account.

    I've mostly noticed these events happening in the very early NA mornings, and in duels with some players. Outside of those two instances, I don't see it happening nearly as much.

    But it as completely unfair, game breaking, and demoralizing as a legit player to have to face such situations. And to see the same offenders day after day. Blatantly doing the same infractions without any fear of reprisal. Because they are more than likely using dummy accounts that host little to no value.

    So you are seriously saying that being able to hit players with 5 abilities. While light attacking and jumping around all at the same time in perfect synchronization. Doesn't do anything in a PvP situation? What!? Come again?

    I have spent a lot of time practicing my weaving but personally I have nothing against people using macros. This is a game. If someone wants to make it easier for themselves it's his call and I have no right to tell anyone how he should play his game.

    As for macros in pvp there are cooldowns for LA and abilities which means that it doesnt matter if you program a macro that fires 10 abilities in one second - only the first one will fire. Sure someone could create a macro with delays to execute a combo but lag will break that combo. And if one were to create a macro that takes lag into consideration by increasing delays, then that combo will be still much less effective than the one executed by hand.

    As for LA weaving I expect my enemies to be weaving. Whether they do it using one button or two is of no concern to me.

    As for people who have certain medical conditions they should be definitelly allowed to use macros. However since your health issues are a medical secret, no one except your doctor can expect you to talk about your medical condition, not even your employer and most definitely not a game developer. This means that anyone could tell they have a medical condition that forces them to use macros. Since we can't check this we should just allow everyone to use them.

    This is just a game. Play it the way you wan't. Remember though that you have no right to tell others how they should play it.






    I expect some mentally defficient person to accuse me of using macros on the sole basis that I advocate that people should be free to play the game the way they want.

    I am not saying that at all. I am saying that a macro doesn't allow you to accomplish that. This game operates on global cool downs, which a macro wont bypass.

    If you are legitimately getting hit by 5 different skills at the same time, it is either a bad lag spike or some sort of cheat engine. The other possibility is of course that you arent actually being hit by 5 skills at the same time, and there is something wrong with your perception. I have not comment as to which is which, but I do know that there is no macro that allows you to bypass global cooldowns in they way in which you are describing.

    Cheat engines are of course against the TOS. So in other words, I think you seeing one thing happen, misplacing the blame, and demanding ZOS take action on something that isnt actually the issue.

    Thank you for bringing this up. I fall into this category. It is extremely frustrating that the TOS prevents me from adapting to a game I love. Macros also don't solve everything but they do enable people like us to have a fighting chance in both PvE and PvP Content. Depending on the depth of the condition.

    Here is the problem. This is not an and/or scenario. A macro alone will not bypass the GCD in this game. I am 100% against anything that allows a player to bypass GCDs and anything that does is certainly against the TOS.

A long macro (5-8 skills as you describe) in the lag fest that is Cyrodiil is likely a death sentence. I am not saying there arent people that use them here and there, but most good players would absolutely refuse to be locked into a sequence of events like that.

    Even a macro for something simple like a LA/weave is absolutely terrible even in a stable PVE environment. I have messed around with them a fair amount in the privacy of my own test dummy. I have never been able to use macros to achieve better results than what my fingers can do on their own.

    Under sub 80 m/s instances? I high doubt this to be the case. If you disagree show me a human on video with his screen and hands preforming the same 5 or more multi combo routine in under a sec. Consistently without error under sub 80 m/s conditions.

    I do fight players who are simply better them me. I shake them off and aim to improve myself to be better than them. They are not the issue.

    There is a reason this is only a rampant thing in ESO, and no other MMO or RPG that has Action combat system.

    So they are bypassing the global cooldown and using 5 skills in 1 sec? or are 5 skills hitting you in 1 sec?

    ^ this is possible but not for reason op thinks. OP you need to present your case about your issue if you want action.

    With out any evidence this thread won't be taken seriously. If there really are crazy cheat combos out and about and its not your ping spiking you need to get recordings of these in action. Otherwise you invite doubt and accusations of crying wolf.

    No anyone using a macro to cheat the game should be banned

    Now if ZOS wants to develop an in game only option to assist disabled persons to meet a minimum of 25K dps so they can join in some content, if they can manage the movement requirements then maybe I could agree to that as long as it doesn't amount to basically a bot the does everything in the game for them and has some sort of medical verification involved to be able to turn it on.

    Ok guys, I'm not talking about animation cancelling so cool your defensive jets. I am one of those players who can post 30,000 to 37,000 dps by use of animation cancelling.

    I'm talking about players abusing multi-combo macros. To hit you with 6 or more abilities with light attack, while jumping all happening on prefect timing with no error. I would post videos of such but ZOS would rather sweep such under the rug and act like it's not happening rather than address and fix the issue.

    I'm not asking for your Animation Cancelling to be taken away from the game. I'm simply asking for FAIR PLAY FOR ALL. Either for them to allow multi-combo animation cancelling for all, or none!

    If you have something against such. Than I'm going to have to suspect your angle on this topic is malicious in nature. Because you are one of those who abuse such. And don't want others to do what you are doing at no risk to their high value account/s.

    can u write me the name of the guy that made u do this ?

    Making it bot like would be BORING. Reducing the amount of imputs alone would help quite allot.

    Just get good at the game. Executing skills in a certain order while not missing light attacks is so easy..

    Also you can't bypass the global skill cooldown with macro's. Something many people fail to understand..

    It's literally just a l2p issue on your part, I'm sorry.
