Official Discussion Thread for "Crown Store Showcase: February 2017"

craybest · February 2017

love the costumes and the pesonality.
isn't the black noble costume prety much the same we get ingame though? I have one that lookls just like that but with colors...

Forztr · February 2017

Will we ever get costumes that look like armour again? RP costumes every month , yawn.

Recremen · February 2017

I'm sure some folks will be excited to finally get the Desert Garden Gala Overdress, and the body markings pack is certainly nice, but is anyone tired of seeing that one same vest/boot outfit over and over again? The vest is too big and the boots are too small, and it hasn't changed the last 5 times that a subtle variation of the outfit was released.

Well well no prices....???

Housing items....no prices???

They never have pricing on the showcase...

@mrs_gibbs

Actually they do in the crown forums. Seems just not here

Example: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/315086/new-items-and-limited-offers-available-in-the-crown-store-01-19-17-all-platforms#latest

That's the type of announcement they make when things actually become available in the store (note the dates). The overall monthly showcases generally don't include pricing.

Nice to see some things that people have been drooling over for a while. I'm not sure there's anything I really need, but I'll see what prices look like.

@Ilsabet
its tomorrow....

The kitty won't be available until the 14th, and some of the other things will be coming with Homestead on the 6th. I wouldn't be surprised if we get another announcement tomorrow for the things that will be added to the store that day.

Doesn't change the point that the overall monthly showcases generally don't include pricing, and the thing you linked wasn't an overall montly showcase.

As a console player I always find update months to be disappointing... couple items one week then pretty much nothing for (almost) 3 weeks.

Also wondering why the Redguard low, mid, high costumes had the be released spread out over nearly a year. All three Orc (albeit male only), and all three Breton and Bosmer (female only) came out at the same time. Eh, whatever, wake me up when Dark Elf and Nord costumes come out in a few years.

Actually all three female redguard have already been out.
Sandkissed
Whisper weft
And song of the night

This is a 4th tier dress which makes me think they might one day do that for other racial outfits

Beardimus · February 2017

Not particularly interesting this month. Alot of the costumes do seem very niche / theatrical as opposed to combat / aggressive.

I do get RP is a big side of the game, and the house simulator will be big for many. I prefer more function. Bigger banks / bag slots for one!

makeyurself · February 2017

Still no 'Velsa's hairstyle'. WHY ZOS. Velsa has love story, February has love day....see!?!?!??!? Hook a fella up please

perogwin_ESO · February 2017

@ZOS_GinaBruno - Is it safe to assume you will be able to buy multiples of the housing item packs as oppose to the 1 time only purchase of a lot of other items?

Any chance of furniture motif books becoming a thing in the crown store after Homestead launches?

Enodoc · February 2017

Nibenese furnishings in bundles. Great! Now you guys can put the Colovian furnishings back in the Housing Editor purchase tab for à la carte purchase, and put the Colovian furnishing plans back in the crafting system, to go with the Colovian houses. Y'know, like you can already buy and craft the Breton furnishings that match the Breton houses. And the Dunmer furnishings that match the Dunmer houses. And the Redguard furnishings that match the Redguard houses. And......

Acrolas · February 2017

I'm not in love with the cat model, but we'll see.

Dwemer crates are confirmed for June launch, so this should be the last month of Storm. So no doubt March's showcase will pale in comparison to some of the exclusives in the (Spriggan?) March through May crates.

shadoza · February 2017

I want the black cat for certain. Maybe the Dune Rider...I want to see what it looks like on my character, He is very selective as to what he will wear.

are we no longer getting mounts other than through the crown crates?

Of course not! They sold you a 4500 Crown Elk a couple of months ago

But yes, I share your concern as well. Really wanted that black mane lion to be sold on the store, because I refuse to support gamble packs.

Once you have the 4500 crown elk mount, what other mount could you possibly need?

In all seriousness, since this is the official thread and I want to stay constructive, I would also like to see new mounts on the store more than once in a blue moon. Not everyone wants to gamble for them. I hope ZOS will consider making some of the non-themed mounts and pets available in the store after the atronach crates are switched out.

Yes, but we just got the low and mid male Redguard on January 12th and now the high male and this 4th female costume in February. IMO they should all have come out with TG/Hew's Bane. I'm not really complaining, just don't understand why it seems like we have to wait till something isn't relevant anymore before we get it.

esotoon · February 2017

@ZOS_GinaBruno The article has no information about which items will be leaving the Crown Store. Any chance this information could be added please or is nothing leaving next month?

p.s. Thanks for releasing the black cat for Valentines Day, that will score me me some major bonus points from my gf. ;-)

WhiteCoatSyndrome · February 2017

Glad to see the people who were asking for it got their black cat.

I'm a little surprised that it is the exact same cat of the Japanese version of the game. I thought they would change it a little bit, like with the dog that came with the Skyrim version that is of a slightly different tint.

But oh well, looks just like my cat, so I'm getting it.

Zypheran · February 2017

This is just my impression but the costume options in the past few months have been a bit stagnant for male characters - Its all just Prince of Persia themed stuff!
Can we get some robes please? and a hood?
For ages now the only robes have been those orc ones

This is the official discussion thread for the blog article Crown Store Showcase: February 2017. Check out our latest Showcase to see what's in store (literally!) this month.

You guys can make it more diverse in the next chapters or dlcs, that you can expand the battle arenas to not only 4v4v4, but also to 2v2, 1v1, 3v3, 10v10, etc and also 1v monster(s) and x vs monsters, that all would be cool.

Put crowns on 50% off sale before monday and make a ton of money.

I agree with you. Male outfits had been pretty disappointing lately. A lot of them look too close to one that we get for finishing the TG quest - this one included.

Or they can have a crown sale next Thursday and make even more money from impatient people who can't wait for a sale. Isn't that how this usually works?

Inerar · February 2017

I was expecting any of datamined mount like Black Lion or Hearhtfire Kagouti. There wasn't any mount in January too. So i guess they're stocked for next crown crates. We'll see.

Kodrac · February 2017

Yay!

We will not be removing any items from the Crown Store this month.

@ZOS_GinaBruno I LOVE the new personality, but I have a question. Is it supposed to give my character a frown? I'm asking because I know there was a bug that made the characters frown in the past, but since it is a personality that is supposed to make your character look snobbish maybe the frown is part of this personality and is intended.

Are you sure that isn't a look of disdain towards the common folk?

That's why I'm asking, I am not sure. I think it might be, but at the same time I remember it was something that happened to other personalities so I don't know if it is intended this time. Just a heads-up to ZOS in case it is the same bug and not intended.

Nevermind, Jessica said it is intended

driosketch · February 2017

And looks like we have returned back down to the 1,000 crown price point for costumes this month.
