Gonna take some stuff from a PTS thread and it in to help get things going...

1. Please allow stack crafting, it's really tedious to have to spam the square button hundreds of times to craft potions/poisons/food/glyphs.

I still have problems with the fact that this doesn't exist in-game and PC players are allowed TOS-breaking add-ons that automize play and ZOS says nothing because they know it is a basic QoL improvement.

To add to those not already mentioned.

1. Ability to scroll thru the zone names at wayshrines instead of hitting the button up to 25+ times. This also goes for crafting material and styles in the crafting screen.
2. Mini map option, plus it would be nice if the zoom in and out worked a little better. We can only zoom so far in. I have seen other on PC zoom in much closer then console can on a map.
3. Already stated but will repeat for the importance of mass crafting and refining of material please.
4. Allow us to reassign button layout on our controllers.
5. Please improve skill, buff and debuff timers and allow use to select which we want to see and not see. Plus it would be nice to see our skill and weapon damage number on screen.
6. More detail in character screen such as physical and spell penetration.
7. More detail on skills such as is a type of damage and what effects its damage. I know this would make for tooltips a little too long but add the information under the help menu and put a small disclaimer referring to the help menu. Because now we have to depend on our PC brothers and sisters for this type of information which works but would make theory crafting a little easier for us in game.
8. Let us jump out of our homes for free if you want give us a wayshrine in our homes.
9. How about when we go to craft writs we could see what is required to craft because when we go to craft the quest tracker disappears from the upper left of the screen. I pretty much have what is needed committed to memory now but sometimes my Idiot self makes the wrong day’s writs since it varies for all of my character. Even better would be the option to auto craft writs.
10. Allow us to see and access what our other characters are holding without logging in and out over and over.

I am sure there are more but that’s is all I can think of on top of my head.


edited for spelling

I would like the following;

- ability bar swapping to be more responsive, its a bit hit or miss at the moment.
- research tracker, it can get tedious constantly having to look through it all to see how much time is remaining etc.
- the ability to see your crafting writ dailies whilst crafting items. (i'm quite forgetful at times)
- increased FOV
- (this one is for all platforms) double the housing space from 700 to 1400


That is all i have right now. Thanks

The ability to swap loadouts on the fly, and the ability to craft 100+ items at once.

Whatever you wish for they will charge you for it.

You wished for account wide skyshards or anything so you don’t have to constantly stare at a second screen and look at the monkey’s paw you got.

They could have just given you unlocated skyshards on the map, but no there were those who didn’t want to go get them. They could have made them account wide, but why do that when they know there are those who will pay.

So be careful what you wish for.

Exactly this.

Anything suggested in this thread will most likely show up in the crown store, instead of just being added as a QoL for it's own sake.

I second this...be careful what you're asking for...

Even if this were true, which is debatable, how is it being in the Crown Store worse than it not existing? And to be in the Crown Store they would want it to be for the PC market, too. So things PC players already have as add-ins wouldn't qualify.

Example 1: floating damage numbers and buff bar -- these existed for PC as add-ons but were added to the native UI as a regular update; no charge

Example 2: skyshards -- if they had just added a way to see undiscovered shards on console, it would have likely been a free base-UI upgrade because you can't charge PC players for it. Buying skyshards already discovered on your account has a market for PC and console. It's still possible that they will add the free upgrade to see them, as console players need to *find* all the shard in a zone on one character before they can buy them for another character

Example 3: build save slots (sets, CP, attributes, skills/morphs) -- these only kind of exist for PC with multiple add-ons and would add to server load; it would be expected that if the suped-up version (you can have different morphs, CP, attributes, etc. in different slots) is added to the native UI one slot would likely be an ESO+ reward and two more would be Crown Store. However if it's just Dressing Room (can save gear/current skill choices on your bars but not able to actually go back to a different save with different morphs, CP, etc.) then it would likely just be a free native UI upgrade

Because, believe it or not, some people believe putting cosmetics in a cash shop is fine, but putting quality of life things behind a paywall smacks of greed and a lack of respect for all players.

Why should a cp or gear load out be paid for when it can benefit all players?
One answer...they want to milk your wallet, not improve all players gaming experience...that's the purpose of quality of life improvements after all.

Except, I gave examples of when they tend to make them pay-items and when they don't for a reason

Arbitrarily saying that anything that people ask for in this thread will be monetized does not fit with what we've seen with free UI upgrades that mimic PC add-ons and are now available on both PC and console in the native UI. So while the premise that people should be wary of posting requests for console is understandable given their marketing tactics, it is also not entirely sound, especially concerning items that would be hard to monetize (e.g. items PC players already have access to through add-ons). Asking for better damage metrics, or something like the Dressing Room add-on for PC, is in the category of "harder to monetize" as PC players won't buy it and would totally riot if their add-ons were taken away to be sold back as a cash shop items. Not impossible, of course, but dumb and unlikely.

Asking for things that both PC and console lack, especially things that would be a lot of work to produce and add sever load, are far more likely to be monetized and it wouldn't *just* affect console. Anyone who wants certain features, like save slots that recall unique builds in complete detail even if you have respecced to something else so you could swap different builds with the press of a button (Stam Sorc to Magicka Pet Build, for example), should definitely expect such a feature to be a cash shop item. Requesting it for any platform means knowing it will almost certainly be an extra charge, so it hurts no more or less to ask for it here than it did for me to ask for it in another thread that wasn't focused on consoles.

The other part is that intentionally or not you are implying it is better to never quest console QOL improvements because some of them *might* be monetized. Which, then, suggests people shouldn't ask for console QOL improvements. If that isn't the case, then we are back to what I already wrote about items that are more likely or less likely to be monetized. Console players will most likely have to pay for the same QOL things PC players do. And that becomes not a console issue, but a ZOS sales and marketing issue that affects everyone.

I would happily deal with all of the crap if they just fix the freeze stepping that happens off of what seems to be every wayshrine. It used to be just a couple of zones, now it's almost every time you travel. Step-freeze-step-freeze-step-freeze

PS4 NA

When I find a survey or treasure chest location, let me add it to my map. If PC players are allowed add ons to let them see where crafting nodes are, give me back my skill points and make the nodes glow without needing all those points (and I think all PC players who don't choose to use add-ons have a legitimate complaint since nodes are shared and the add on gives advantage.)

Bulk crafting definitely. And fix the UI so when I'm doing crafting, I stay in the quest section and not bounce over to campaigns. And, can I please start lock picking at the end instead of the middle? Moving from pin to pin is harder on a controller than with a mouse.

Performance first and foremost. Then address bugs that have been there forever: Friends list (on Xbox), group finder specifically BGs (probably all platforms), voice chat dropping/causing lag, snipe desync exploit, etc.

Nonsense. They will not charge for hold-to-scroll when selecting style stones. Nor will they charge for making those icons a bit bigger. I know of no game that has ever charged for UI changes.

This is Zeni and Beth. They found a way to charge for free mods. They'll find a way to charge for this too.

They’ve got to fix them before they charge for them

Also worth noting charging for this would be a considerable departure from the zos business model
