    I'd like a decent trading system, and the improved communication we were promised late last year. The rest is great.

    Could you explain yhe promised communication? I haven't heard about it

    Towards the end of last year @ZOS_GinaBruno posted that they recognised that their communication on the forums needed to be improved and that they were working on a way of doing so but that it wouldn't be completed before the end of the year. We're now almost halfway through the new year and still no sign of it.

    Ah ok, I thought you ment communincation in the game, lol

    I also just wanted to say, that sorcerers still can't create portals. The mages guild have made portals, Tharn has made portals. Muiltiple other mage NPC's have made portals, and yet the player cant make one?

    All players can make portals. Open your map, select a zone and a wayshrine or one of your houses, and port away.

    I wish Zos would fix the game's deteriorating performance and actually communicate with us their customers....

    They barely communicate on the forums as it is.

    Thats not what I mean, thats a dumb teleporting mechanic. I mean ACTUALLY opening a portal so that people can go through and you can without hsving to pay gold to use wayshrines.

    Another thing is that NPC's dont do anything, both guards and story characters. In the last quest for Elswheyr and all the fights you do, none of the NPC's help. If you pull a mob near a guard, the guard doesn't do anything.

    What are your problems with ESO? These could be minor bugs, to wanting balance changes. It could be anything.

    Here are my problems.
    -Crown store and crown crates shouldnt exist. Crown crates is basiy gambling and the Crown store is filled with stuff that should be earned in the game.

    -Classes arent that unique. Both Necromancer and Warden have far too many abilities that share similarties. Heck, I found abilities necromancer had that came from dragonknight and sorcerer.

    -more pets and mounts should be avaible to get with gold or from drops.

    Edit: Bosses are very un-memorable. Also you baey get rewards for killing mobs

    Get rid if crown store and how would they fund the games development?

    Box sales, expansions, ESO plus.

    That would be fine if everyone was prepared to pay for their gaming in those ways, but many aren't.

    Outside of ESO+ everyone already is. While ESO might have a F2P style cash shop, I didn't realize it went F2P.

    I guess one of my biggest problems with ESO are entitled players that complain too much and don't have much insight as to game development processes -- something one could easily find videos on YouTube for to glean the slightest of fragments.

    Mind, there's tons of legitimate complaints out there. Things that give an unpleasant taste, or provide a poor experience, or otherwise detract from what could have been awesomeness. Sometimes those legitimate, well-thought-out, carefully crafted complaints are drowned out in a sea of "but I demand MY change NOW," though.

    I get the frustration. I really do. I just wish folk would take a step back before pounding the keys. :/

    The “limited time” items. Can we stop with those every month? There’s so little permanent items in the store nowadays.

    Oh and can we get more polys in the crown store

    For me, the main problem is the generic of it all. There is vast amount of content to do but great majority of it is completely forgettable. A memorable and awesome moment is a rarity.

    I actually don't find this game too buggy, I've played and enjoyed worse. Yes, I do get stuck scenery in occasion, mobs get inside walls and keep attacking, looting fails and so on. Server performance issues like loooooooading screens, skills not firing - is that a server issue? - random several seconds lags with 80ms ping, those are worse. LFG tool and PvP are not yet concern to me. (I'm getting there, slowly.)

    Server performance is not up to a sub game but then ESO+ is optional. Crown store microtransactions are actually macrotransactions but crown store is also optional. I do not gamble. If I an expansion is too expensive for its value to me I'll wait for sale. Result is I find this game pretty inexpensive to play.

    it is nice to know that crown store won't be

    touched because of some poor guy who

    wants to get stuff for gold B)

    wait... you can have most crown store items

    and even crates for gold...by buying crowns

    from other players...


    oh maybe his gold balance as bad as his

    bank account so he can't even afford food

    after repair bills? :D

    Eradication of established lore for no apparent reason, unwillingness to even consider raising housing item limits, terrible Cyrodiil performance, infinite loading screens, disappearing NPCs, inability for paid assistants to access guild banks and stores or repair armor...... goodness, how much time have you got?

    If you use any rooster as in guild, group or friend list, you will be able to tp for free. Most other MMOs have restriction that you need to pay for teleportation with in game tokens or currencies, even when you stand on similar things like Wayshrines in ESO. ESO offer a lot of teleport option compared to other MMO, if you take your time and learn how to use them that is without any cost. You get access to a small house (room for free) for each new character created (part of a small quest line) for free that later can be used for free to teleport to main cities and with Elsweyr you get one for finish a quest line too...what more do you want?


    Warden can make portals on ground which is for limited range and player to teleport to another location.
