WTF ZOS???
Players are now being PUNISHED because of your bad code?
I am stuck in a state of death and in order to fix it I have to /stuck myself... but it wants to charge me GOLD in order to do that!! How is that fair??
In addition to that.. I am getting the death bug all the time now and have to keep signing out and back in over and over again.
This game is becoming more and more of a joke every day...

✭Thats great! instead of killing myself which I as an orc would NEVER do, I can just pay some gold and get out, instead of having to wait on a GM or play an alt. Good solution!Oghur Hatemachine, Guild leader of The Nephilim - EU Megaserver

LadyDestiny✭✭✭✭✭Seriously? This costs gold now? Is it intended or a bug? I can't believe with the high cost of everything and the complaints that they would do something like this. They must be sitting back having a good laugh. Good job ZoS, this just keeps getting better and better.......I used to be nice person but this company has brought out the worst in me.1 -
Syzmicke✭✭✭The only thing these charges are for is the gold sellers to make more money.
I'am sure ZOS has share's in the companys cause they dont seem to know/do with the Bot's.

Seriously, yes it is charging gold now. That is why I included the pic with the post to prove that it is charging gold to /stuck yourself now. So, yeah I am thinking it was an intended change.Far too many characters to list any more.0 -

pema✭✭✭so how do we get out of an object, or en endless fall?
Now you need money on you all the time in case you get stuck... what if you are broke? or put it in the bank?
I'd rathter have they put a repetive cap on it, no more then idk 5 times an hr?1 -
Artemiisia✭✭✭✭✭
✭well I have only been stuck like 3 times so far in my whole gaming experience, not really justified as a money sink
all you need is to have 500 gold on you at all time from now on, thats little more then one quest
I happy with this, especially now I dont need to repair my gear upon death by stuck
Kudos ZeN0 -
mowind✭✭✭
care to explain?
Previously, bots would hit a quest objective and type /stuck to kill themselves for a quick trip to a wayshrine. this way, if the quest gives 150g and it costs 140g to "die"...this makes the botting of quest worthless.
i do agree that they shouldn't charge gold for being stuck, it should move you a few feet to to one side or the other....like most other MMO's

Squishy✭✭✭I would highly recommend to get the first /stuck for free, but it would have a 1h CD.
I ended up stuck in the map, and when I saw the cost, I just alt+F4 the client. That annoyed me greatly, but if it's an anti bot measure, I think the first /stuck should be free, with an increasing fee (like the shrine travel), resetting every 2hours or so."In 2014, a possible bot was sent to coldharbour by a military GM for a crime she didn't commit. This argonian promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Ebonheart underground. Today, still wanted by the developers she survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a bot problem, if no one else can bite you, and if you can find her....maybe you can hire The SQUISHY."0 -
kasain✭✭✭Nope. ZOS is not to bright. They could of done what they do for IP address verifications. Send a code to your email. Then you can do /stuck.
But hey with the memory leak, and this new thing what no MMO has ever done. then theirs the fact they are hiring, most likely because they fired many of their people. The company has no direction on how to keep a player happy and control bots.0 -
Censorious✭✭✭✭It always did have a cost - it's just that they never told you how much before.'Clever' sigs get old real fast - just like this one.0 -
kasain✭✭✭No idea, but the fact it is a game developer problem and not a player problem is the issue. First it causes armor decay, then to warp. And no, I shouldn't have to take off all my armor because their server lags and I run into the middle of a mountain or fall from the sky. Then have to pay on top of that for them not providing a stable server.
They wonder why their are so many bots but truly it is 95% of there one game decisions and development that have caused more bots in this game and more player nerfs then any other MMO.

Svann✭✭✭If someone was exploiting stuck to fast travel this wont fix that. All they have to do is suicide and achieve the same thing.0

Aeradon✭✭✭✭✭Why didn't you just open your group/party and travel to the members?
/stuck had always have a cost. Travel doesn't. Who pays for way shrines nowadays?People keep telling me they're gonna buy me an ale. They never do.
There are only two things I can't stand in this world. People who are intolerant of other people's culture. And the Elves.

Manus✭✭Has anybody tried it with no gold? Does it result in a death or free ride ? or are you stuck until a gm/cs helps you out?0 -
Banumu✭✭If I could get into game I would try that, put all gold in bank /stuck just to see what would happen. Curiosity Killed the Khajiit.1 -
Fairydragon3✭✭✭✭This was exploited to all heck, so I'm glad they put in in.
/facepalm, I never repair, i could have been traveling to the nearest wayshrine for free. this is why these fixes are made, before slow people like me , the incoming people don't exploit it more. One of the advantages to continuing subs from day one. of course that has it's disadvantages too0 -
dideldumdei✭✭Has anybody tried it with no gold? Does it result in a death or free ride ? or are you stuck until a gm/cs helps you out?
Just tried it and let me say its even more worthless against Bots as all the Fanboys here think, cause if you have no money on your character its taken out of your ingame Bank Account. So ZOS actually not only takes gold from one of your Characters but from your whole Account.
And in addition you can only use /stuck only once every hour.
So it is a Gold Sink and nothing else, cause no Bot is harmed by it in any way. Only the once an hour limit maybe hurts them a bit.
As someone here already wrote a *** poor solution. Plus it was never mentioned in any Patch Notes so it was just ninjaed in.
Another well done ZOS!!Edited by dideldumdei on May 26, 2014 1:11PM0
