Yeah there tend to be a lot of people camping in the spawn areas. I got super lucky I got bit on the first try. Soon as a werewolf spawns everyone just swarms on it.

I had a total mutli-player Skyrim moment with my session last night. I spawned in on my EB toon and there were these other two dudes just riding up on their mounts.
"Hey, Quinn! We're going to Riften if you want to tag along!" they shout through the area chat.
I'm like, what the hell, why not? We are all severely under leveled for this (I'm 15, one of them 14 and the other 6, lol), but that was the charm of Skyrim. Just going wherever and doing whatever. So I grouped with them, and not only did we make it to Riften, but we made it all the way to Windhelm. Hit a bunch of Wayshrines along the way. Killed a bunch of level 32-42 enemies in a 3-on-1 scenario. We even tried a dungeon that we all knew was way too difficult for us, but we made it to the boss, so that had to count for something.
Good times! I love this game!

Stupid question, but... I'm nearly level 10. Is it recommended that I go straight to Cyrodill?

Group Finder actually worked for me today. I got grouped with 3 other players on the same level I was. We started a dungeon to see how it would go and we managed to go through it quite easliy. After that we spent the whole afternoon playing dungeons and it was SO good. Got a bunch of loot. I love this game.

Yea you can go there, but unless your in a group, I wouldn't recommend it.
You will be boosted up to level 50, but your equipment nor skills won't. So people who are actually level 50 will sneeze in your direction and youll die. So you need numbers to overcome that.
But yo, I think I found a way around the "notext chat" for our entire guild. Or atleast a big ass chuck of it.
Until I started playing this game with multiple folk, I didn't notice that you could send messages to more than one person, turning the text message into a chat room, where everyone whos involved in the text can see what everyone else post. Pretty much a PSN OS level chat system. This is what I mean.
And there can be up to 100 people in a chat room.
So I decided to send a friend request to every single guild member, and when i want to group up with some folks, i'll just create a chat room for us by adding as many of the guild members as i can, whos currently online at the time, so we can all communicate as to who wants to do what on the system itself.

Already started chatting
But now I see, those notifications become annoying.
I guess we should only post when we want to group up or need help with something to cut down all the chatter.

Maybe a Slack is a good idea if people are interested. I like the idea of a text chat, PSN app just drives me insane. My phone was buzzing off the hook until I removed the app's ability to send all notifications. I wish they would have left in text chat for people that wanted to use a usb or bluetooth keyboard.

Nice effort man. I think it's a good idea, but yeah - the chat notification's are going to get a bit intense. I really do wish they had left text chat in the game - so much more convenient and manageable.

Is the Imperial Upgrade in the Crown Store account bound on the PS4?
If I were to buy it on my PSN account would my wife have access on her PSN account on the same PS4 or would we have to buy it again?

Almost certain all the Crown Store stuff is account bound.

Well that is shit. No reason to ever buy anything from the Crown Store. If they ever release the Imperial race as a real DLC I might buy it, but the crown store is a rip-off if non-consumable stuff is account bound.

The DLC is likely going to be this way as well. :/
You guys have more than one account.....?
SkinnerSw33t
Member
No, but someone else in my home has an account as well.
both are quality. and a good change of pace from each other.

I have 3 as I like redoing some games and getting the trophies again. Sad I know. Also have 3 other people in the house who play on the system who all play this game too so I'm not going to be buying any dlc that is account locked.

Can someone give me a quick rundown of sharing quests when you're in a group, how it works and what the benefits are?

That sounds awesome. I am just loving the game on console. I played the PC version since it's beta and it is also great, but having a lot of people I know on the console version just makes the game so much better. I really never got into PVP on PC, but last week did on console and it was just fantastic. No slowdown, epic battles, it was just great.
It was surreal at the same time. Being a big LOTR fan and GoT, having a group of 24 people riding horseback going from keep to keep and finding that poor soul on his own and being ganked by 20 people was just flat out hilarious. It is such an amazing game and with the latest patch smoothing out a lot of the lag/hitching, it is very smooth. Still some other bugs and little things to work out, but damn if that latest patch made a difference.

It feels a little splintered right now. Not a lot of activity, people are not using the guild store too much, but honestly we have not been doing a lot as a guild so that probably has something to do with it. I also think that some of the larger guilds are taking some of the business away, but in due time I think things will settle down. I think we are approaching over 100 or we are at over 100 (can't remember). Since I had some IRL friends also get the game, I have been helping them, but they just joined as well so things should get more attention from me soon.

The grouping in this game is weird.
Even though yall may be on the same quest, in a group doing the same quest together, you still have to do them separately.
Meaning, if your partner activates a switch, everyone will also have to activate the switch too, as if yall werent even grouped up.
The quest doesnt even know yall are groupped up.
So theres practically 0 benefits to group up and do quest besides the fact that you have someone there to help you kill enemies easier.
You cant set group way points either.
lol, that was me, check the few post above yours.

Apparently you get a lot more XP from killing enemies if you are grouped with at least one other person.

Thats if you are married to that person you get exp. I havent heard about getting bonus exp while not married in groups though. Unless you know something that I don't.

Been playing 4-5 hours now. My initial impression is that this game is pretty ugly. And the animations are really dated. Still I'm having a decent time.

My son was pissed at me after we left a dungeon and I only had 3/4 of it complete. Good times. Dumb dad....

Wait, what? Marriage?
I'm assuming it's the rings/contract of Mara.
EDIT: Also, wasn't there a PS4 rollcall thread before? Can we use that thread to find people to run dungeons with within the guild?
MaKTaiL
Member
You can buy the RIngs of Mara to marry another player from the Crown Store. When you two are playing at the same time (not necessarily on the same group), you both get bonus XP. Those who bought the Imperial Edition got this ring for free.

Could anyone invite me to the EU Ebonheart Pact Guild? PSN: RainyTheB
Alright, thank you! So far, I've killed a few wasps, scouted my own base, bought an electric ballista, ran away from a dark anchor, got lost in a fort, and to top it all off, slid down a hill and died painfully. I'm not entirely sure I'm cut out for it quite yet. Thanks for further helping me clarify that.
This game's so eventful, though. It's great fun!
