The Elder Scrolls Online Tamriel Unlimited - |OT| - Console edition

They said they will be reworking the game story to fit.

The Dark Brotherhood update is out now on Xbox One (PlayStation rolls out tomorrow). PSA: it's a huge update, 17gb. The Dark Brotherhood DLC is also great.

This is great.

This game has completely surprised me and blown my expectations of it out of the water.
 
One Tamriel is a REALLY great update and will bring me back into the game. I'm currently V3 and have just gotten bored of the area I'm in and don't feel like grinding out anymore. Every time I jump back in I play for a couple hours and stop for another month.

I could be blind here, but do we know when this will happen?

You can start playing again - as of today, Veteran Ranks no longer exist on Xbox or PlayStation.

One Tamriel is due later this year.

Just decided to log in for the first time in a year, servers are down lol

These must be the only company that take their game down in the MIDDLE of the fucking day for maintenance

PS4? I believe there was scheduled maintenance which caused the new dlc to be pushed back a day.
 
Really excited to get home and log in (PS4). My Templar was VR5 and I just hated the grind honestly. So what exactly happens when I log in, aside from everyone being 50, are my skills reset? Is it just Champion Ranks and CP's ? I don't full understand Champion Ranks btw, I just returned to the game.

You will become level 50, and then get 'free' Champion Points based on how long you've played. Your existing points will be reset. Your existing skills will be refunded if those skills have changed. Only Champion Points up to 500 are counted (anybody over 500 has grinded but those points don't do anything).

Patch Available for PS4.

Yep, 13gb on PS4. If you haven't played (and patched) lately it's a 31gb download.

The changes they're planning sound great

Haven't touched the game on Xbox in MONTHS since it was so pointless trying to group with a friend, might play it again now

these new changes to some of the skills were freaking sweet.

I am playing on the PS4 as a dual wield sorcerer with a back up 2h and before the patch I had just unlocked momentum.

With my setup now I decided to jump in dark shade caverns and I am halfway through it by myself. I have so much sustain with 3 healing abilities and several buffs :D

No more waiting hours to do dungeons for me.

Oh my god, this new DLC is great! I just did the first mission (and first assassination). Killing enemies from behind is really SATISFYING. It finally brings me back to awesome memories from Skyrim. There are a bunch of different aniamtions too. They did an incredible job with it and it bonds well with the new stealth mechanics introduced on Thieves Guild. You can now show nameplates above every player in the world which was an awesome an needed addition. They also revamped the health bars above enemies and they now display a neat animation when their health is drained. Overall this update was really really good. Can't wait for "One Tamriel" later this year.

It really is! My favourite animation for a stealth kill has to be the one where you throw the dagger. So fun!

Thanks. So does that mean I can go anywhere without worrying about being under leveled? Even though One Tamriel isn't live yet?
 
Great, thank you very much.

I guess I'll wait a bit to jump back in but the amount of support this game continues to get to improve it is fantastic.

If you have any of the DLC you can play it without having to level. It scales those quests. It is what I am doing with the Dark Brotherhood stuff right now.

The turn around this game has seen from P2P to B2P is quite impressive. The constant 3 months DLC is very good for MMO's too. Wish WoW did this Lol.

Why is pay if needed a thing? Is it hard to become a werewolf?

Some people pay in-game gold for bites. You can get it via NPCs I believe, but it's difficult.. you can also pay 1500 crowns for a Crown Store bite.

I'd give it for free if I had my WW leveled out to have that ability (I've not paid much attention to leveling it TBH).
 
Started playing the Xbox One version a few days ago. Pretty entertaining stuff, currently up to Lv 10 with an altmer dragonknight. My build is probably ass and my attribute allocation is probably not much better, I haven't bothered to research shit. Still having a great time. I was wondering at which point would DLC stuff be desirable to have? When reaching level cap, or from the beginning? I am probably going to be subbing on and off since I can get a bit disperse with games and DLC packs are really expensive if you want to buy them off the crown store.

Holy shit more new content hype? Zenimax is going at breakneck speed right now. I imagine we'll see this in August? Maybe earlier?!
 
Just reinstalled. Only played for a few weeks during the console launch and it just didn't grab my attention. I'm certainly having a bit more fun now, i don't know if there have just been a lot of little QoL improvements that make it better or what, but its certainly been more fun to play. I swear the visuals on PS4 are quite a bit better than i recall too, but perhaps thats just me starting in a different alliance.

Do we have active GAF players on PS4? It'd be nice to play with some friends for sure.

I just started playing again. I can get you an invite to the GAF guild. PSN cthulhusars

We had someone wipe out the guild bank money and bail but I am fixing that at the moment

Man, what a shit thing to do. I've got a good bit of gold at the moment thanks to Thieves Guild, so I could donate a bit if it'd help.

Also, I added you, so feel free to send the guild invite along whenever. And thanks!

What's that? No I didn't accidentally deconstrust Valerion's Spare Staff which was much better than anything I had and I was just waiting to level up to use it. That'd be silly.

Does NeoGAF have a guild trader parked anywhere?

So many PSN players and me stuck on PC. Guessing there's no cross play?

Sadly, no. :(

Would be amazing, though.. I have a few friends who play off and on via PC.. I'm actually close to convincing one to buy a PS4 - not just for ESO, but that will be one of the perks, hah!
