The basis of an MMO is not to force you to group up, not to force you to join a guild, not to force you to be apart of an alliance, and not to force you to do anything. The goal of an MMO is to let you play the way you want. How ever because this community is such a troll-fest and such an immature, small minded group of children - we are stuck we people that demand you have a specific set of gear, stats, play a specific way: eg, no healer is allowed to also do dps in a dungeon, even though zenimax stated that you can play as you want how you want with who you want

The problem with this community is not the solo players them selves like me, who ONLY ever group up if we are forced to, in the case of dungeons, which should be public dungeons. Why should I be forced to do a raid? why should I be forced to do a dungeon, why should I be excluded from new story, new content because I like to go it alone.

NOW - what I do like is games like guildwars 2. I don't have to group up with any one, but I can run with a large group of people and do bosses and content, but I am not forced to sit around looking for a group, asking guild mates I despise or waiting for friends, who have better things to do then play some game for pix elated rewards that will probably either be rolled back (do to item duping bug) or nerfed, because some whiny little b!tch thinks their OP.

I would rather just be minding my own business and then see a large group of people or a small group and then just join in by following them. its more fun that way because then I can run off and do what I want and join back up later.

I think you kiddies, have the whole concept of MMO down as this forced grouping, forced raiding, forced dungeon bull crap. If you opened the world up and let people decide for them selves, should I run with this zerg fest or group up with friends to do some quests, then you would see a much more positive reaction from the community.

How ever when you force us to do a new zone only in groups and only by groups then you are limiting the ability for us to play as we like, how we like, when we like. Because now I have to be on at a specific time when the guild or the serve is active, be on to get a group, wait for the group and then follow the group when I might want to just ditch them for 5 minutes and go explore some off path area that might land me in a quest.

ES games, weather they are on-line or offline are all about exploration, getting lost in skyrim or oblivion only to find your way to some city after slaying dragons and trolls and other creatures.

Personally I dont care if this is an MMO or a solo game.

let me play the way I want to play, like you advertised.

Hey, I want to play on the back of a rainbow-farting unicorn, but it ain't happening.

Most MMOs force you to play in a specific alliance. Most MMOs have content which forces you to group up. If you don't like that, my grandfather had some immortal words of wisdom that may help: tough titties.

you're posts are nothing more then "shut up and do group content, welcome to MMO" you're the prime example why this community is full of small minded idiots.

I'm sorry, I wasn't aware that your posts were anything besides "I want more single-player in a game that already has a metric ton of soloable content."

I've played the Elder Scrolls series for well over a decade. When I want a single-player experience, I have plenty of games to satisfy that craving. Anyone who plays an MMO and doesn't expect at least some content to require grouping is too naive for words.

"Play how you want," has always been limited by the developers intentions, as it should be. Any game that actually let everyone play how they wanted would be a giant cluster.

But why have a whole new area group only? I want to go in and gather some mats and get some new weapons and maybe kill some bad guys

The overland area will be public like other zones, it will contain multiple dungeons

what does this mean

1) No bumping allowed.

2) Just give it a rest. You are the only one who thinks there isn't enough solo content.
