Re: The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited

Well, I'm trading in a couple of old games and redeemed some of my gamer points that I've been sitting on forever and I'm going to pick it up today. Thinking I'm going to make and elf ranger/thief type. Normally with RPGs I go sword and board, but I'm going to try something different to start off. Anyone who has it for the 4 and is willing to help a brutha out would be appreciated. Look for Gunslinger057

Got a little elf nightblade in the Aldmeri, but I'm going to also start up a Nord Dragonknight and put him in Ebonheart.

Re: The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited

I came across a sidequest that is an homage to John Carpenter's The Thing. :D

Re: The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited

I've decided to focus on my Nord Dragonknight for right now, and I'm trying something different and going for a stamina build so they can be a DPS/tank build. Holy crap Uppercut makes things so simple. Between it and charge I can stun lock most little things. Morphing magma armor and having Dragon Blood and Battle Roar makes survival pretty easy too. All in all a fun build I think. Looking forward to seeing how this goes with late game material.

Re: The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited

PS4 version. Anyone know how to fucking disable auto voice chat? I've turned voice chat off in the opions but it still auto joins a channel when I log in. It's really obnoxious to forget to leave the channel and then out of no where someone starts talking loudly.

Re: The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited

I don't think you can turn off public chat, which annoys the shit out of me. Tired of rolling in to a town and some guy has some obnoxious music playing or is yelling about wanting to buy something, or even better they're running around town asking if anyone can hear them. Yes we can, you're just annoying as hell.

You can turn it off, you just have to do it every time you log in. =\

Re: The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited

It also likes to rejoin sometimes when you go to a different area. A Google search tells me there's no way set it to not auto join, and the only option are work around like creating your own guild and defaulting your chat to that. Lame. A Google search also tells me that some people think if you don't like it you're just lazy. They can fuck right off with that.

Re: The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited

Guild and Group chat is one thing, but they really should've had text chatting for the mass public chat. Like, honestly. How can you even compete with 500 screaming people asking for something all at once? Such a dumb idea..

Re: The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited

"Ok time to log in really quick to buy my daily mount upgrade"

*message about how there's an update and you can't play without it first*

"Fuck me. Ok fine I hope this is a small one I just want to log in for 2 minutes"

*it takes 20 minutes just to 'prepare to download'*

"FUCK ME. Ok finally it's going to start downloading thank Christ"

*5+ gb to go, 4 hours estimated time to complete*

"FUCK MY LIFE"

I hate modern gaming so much.

Re: The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited

So it downloaded yesterday so today I can play...after it takes 10 minutes to login...and now I see it reset my skill points. WHAT IN THE FUCK I HATE YOU JUST LEAVE ME ALONE AND LET ME PLAY.

I assume the reset was related to the patch, but if so they need to fucking say hey we reset you here's why.

Fuck video games.

Re: The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited

I used to remember when video games made changes, you'd actually see a pop up in the game so that you can tell what got changed.

Now it is just "hey, purchase this"

Re: The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited

MMO's do skill resets all the time. I can't count how many times it's happened to me in WoW. Anyway, it's in the patch notes...

Re: The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited

Patch notes that at no point appeared on my screen nor did a button saying CLICK HERE TO READ PATCH NOTES appear.

Just more reasons I guess I should be glad my MMO playing is very limited. I would murder people, LOTS of people, for offline versions of Elder Scrolls Online and FFXIV that I could play by myself and not be dependant on a server or have shit randomly changed on me.

Re: The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited

Did the Imperial City DLC have anything for solo players? The brief time I mucked with it all I could find were dungeons that didn't say group but they scaled so that there was no way o was going to get anywhere solo.

Also, subtitles. Fucking finally!

Well, the Imperial City warzone has PVP and PVE single player quests so it's technically soloable, though obviously much easier with a party. There were quests too.. I'm not sure if there was a lot of new story content - I haven't downloaded it yet. I'm waiting until I hit the level cap before I grab it.

Re: The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited

Logged in to get my horse upgrade and enchanter writ for the day...update required.

Fuck.

Ok fine I'll do shit while that downloads. Comeback later: file could not be downloaded, please free up disc space.

FUCK.

Fine fuck you, I don't need the star wars beta anymore anyway. Ok so now I won't have time to play, but I can at least let this download before going to bed depending on how big it is. So how big is it? Fuck if I know it's been 'preparing to download' for 20 minutes (89% omg). And I can't leave it going right now because it'll suck up all my bandwidth and it's needed for other things before we're both in bed.

FUCK OFF AND DIE.

So tomorrow I'll get to wait half an hour again (I assume) for it to prepare the fucking thing just so I can see how big it is and see if I have time to get it tomorrow.

Seriously, I'm wishing video games were never invented.

Re: The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited

So I love this game. But I've been trying to play 100% single player.
But it's getting annoying to turn down group requests constantly.

Re: The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited

You'll get less as you get further along and higher level. I got tons at first, but I haven't gotten even one in probably two months.
