Elder Scrolls Online

[Mourningfall]

Something tells me this thread has probably already been done, but I couldn't see it and Gen. Video games needs one.

Who's excited for the beta? What expectations do you have? Anything you think could be improved from what you've seen?

Anything and everything ESO; post it here!

Re: Elder Scrolls Online

Still waiting for true online multiplayer for skyrim. Even if it is only 2 players.

Signed up for the beta, but I'm not too excited about the game.

Re: Elder Scrolls Online

They say their making it a high priority to keep the integrity and play style of the
Elder Scrolls franchise, non over that overcluttered hud bs you'd find in mmo's like EvE.

It's not mostly a PvP game.
I'm sure you'd be able to reach the level cap questing just as fast as someone who roamed Cyrodiil stomping noobs.
In terms of the map PvP zones will take up more than desired, but that doesn't mean the gameplay is going to revolve around it.

Re: Elder Scrolls Online

Just signed up for the beta test. Says my chances were "above average"

I was also told my chances were above average, yet I was also told if I was
accepted I'd receive an email within the next 48 hours to let me know.
And that was almost two weeks ago. So I'd say my chances of getting to
play while it's still in beta is pretty slim.
Hope they look more kindly upon you

Re: Elder Scrolls Online

I heard you have better chances at these things if you have unique hardware specifications that they are interested in getting feedback from.

Yeah they did ask for a DirectX Diagnostic, my computer's probably just not special enough for 'em..

Re: Elder Scrolls Online

I can't say I'm excited because I don't know too much about it. However, I read about it on Ars Technica and I'm pretty interested... this is something to keep an eye on.

You can see the javascript controlling the chances bar here:

http://signup.elderscrollsonline.com/js/signup.js

If you include guild name, guild website, check one of the previously played games, check one of the previous elder scroll games, select at least one of the game styles, select at least one of the game activities and include a game that you have previously beta tested and don't leave any any blanks you will get above average variable set to true
Then additionally if you include dx_dialog information you will get the excellent variable set.

stole from reddit ^ c;

Also, the email went to spam for me. Check that.

Since I haven't really looked into the game much, I'm not sure what to expect. Never completed a Elder Scrolls game before

Re: Elder Scrolls Online

I almost completely forgot about this.

Re: Elder Scrolls Online

I had completely forgotten about it. Seems to have potential so I will definitely try it out.

Re: Elder Scrolls Online

Played it for a little bit and it was meh. The characters movements seem weird. The world looks pretty good other than the starting zone thing.
