there's PvE content in Imperial City, though.

There is but it's primarily aimed at PvP players, which is fair as they've been waiting a while. I'm a casual player, don't mind doing Trials but the PvP element isn't my thing. I completed all of PvE cyrodil but didn't enjoy sneaking around it all. Is especially disheartening doing an anchor and being ganked as the boss drops out. Can't hate on the Gankers though as I love doing it with my Nightblade :p

Thanks, hepburn3d. Unfortunately, I'm in the U.S. I pm'ed XT Vengeance since I thought he was managing the NA guild, but apparently he isn't, so unless anyone knows who is managing that guild and we can contact them, I think the newbies like me just need to level up to 10 so one of us can start a new guild for NA peeps. :/

Definitely agree starting a new one is a good idea. I think EU has about 50 players with about 45 inactive for 1 year :p plus with a new one you have less threat of your bank being raided by a returner ;)

Yeah, I saw your story about the EU guild bank being robbed by that massive asshole MessieurCouchon and Queen of Hunting's wonderful revenge takedown in Marvel Heroes. Horrifying - can't believe he's still posting on GAF. Feel like going into sale thread and warning everyone away, but I suppose that way lies madness.

Just love the crafting in this game - he was licking his chops earlier, but I missed the shot. So cute.

The crafting is really satisfying. I recommend never making gold armour as its too fun changing armour. It's incredibly satisfying making your own food, potions and enchantments to.

Yea we got robbed and he was a douche but if he wanted back in I'd let him :p don't know why.

Really hope that controller support isn't far away. I think that coupled with DLC would be enough for me to get back in. I maxed out my Nightblade DD, couldn't push him much further. Was loving dragonknight tank and Templar healer. So good. Will be back ;) in time

So I got ESO in GMG's recent sale and just got around to making my character and finishing the intro scene. For some reason the game is running very poorly on my system. I have a GTX970 and an overclocked i7-5820k so the game should run just fine. Settings dont really make any difference and the game only uses 30-50% of my GPU. Any ideas why this is happening?

Is this thread only for consoles or does PC count? Also is it cross machine?

I wonder if the Adventurer's Pack is worth it.

Could be server lag? Your machine should be fine.

This is PC thread :) console thread is still in the gaming section. Adventurer pack is worth it. Nice to play as any race in any faction.

Planned Quality of Life Updates:

– LFG updates (thank gods!)

– Play with other alliances’s players! (In dungeons, and later more)

– Subtitles, finally.

– Controler support on PC, switches between Controller and Keyboard/Mouse freely whenever “you touch them”

– Removal of VR, complex because it is interwoven into every part of the game, expect it somewhen after Orsinium

All right! I guess I'll get the 1500 crowns since I got 500 from buying the game apparently.

Is the Pact the "broest" of all the factions? They don't seem to harbor any anger or superiority and are a pretty tightly-knit community. Haven't played Daggerfall or Aldmeri groups though.

This is from Quakecon, right? Any projected ETAs, especially for controller support (like end of year or anything)?

So after I login for the first time, I just see a spinning loading wheel. How long should I wait (it's been 3 minutes on my ssd, and still haven't seen any of the game except pre-rendered videos)

In my experience if it's your first time loading the game yeah it will load for a long time.

Ok, new guild for NA PC players since nobody knows who controls the old one: Neogaf NA. If you want to join just pm me your user ID or do it in game (my user ID is @K omboloi). (Get rid of the space between K and o when typing my ID)

Has anyone started crashing more lately?

My game rarely crashed and since 2.0.13 my game crashes A LOT. Like, In an hour I can get up to 4-5 hard crashes.

It's definitely not on my end because I haven't changed anything on my PC regarding hardware or software.

Do we still have an active EU guild?

It runs great on my computer on highest settings so far. I wish there were subtitles though.

We do have a PC EU guild. PM me ur username and I'll add you. It's quite quiet now days.

Cannot wait for that controller support!!!! Was going to use the Steam controller come November. Was hoping to use both Xinput and keyboard so I could make a custom mapping. If it's switches between the 2 dramatically that could be a little annoying.

Any idea how I could fix a possible server lag issue?

Unfortunately no. In the old days closing the launcher once the game was running helped. Is it constant stutter? In busy regions like cities you will notice it slow down. Out in the wild you should be fine.

Yeah, it constantly stutters with FPS all over the place. For now I've capped the game to 30fps so thats at least better than constant frame drops. Its not as smooth as 60fps but the game looks really great downsampled from 4k.
 
So just got the game and been playing it up to leveling my character to 7 and so far I'm really enjoying the game, questing system is superb from any other MMO I've played. A bit quiet though but not dead silent. Anyways is there a NA GAF guild I could join?

I bought this during the GMG sale and crash every 10-15 mins. Have tried everything and ready to give up. Shame too because I really like the game and it's amazing visuals.
 
My wife and I just started playing this on PC after getting it in the most recent GMG sale. Neither of us have experienced crashes, but a bit of lag only when the server seems to be running with a heavier population.

To be honest, this game has grabbed me like most other MMOs haven't in a LONG time. I'm talking Vanilla WOW here. I've moved to mostly single player games for the past 5 years or so having a little one, but this one scratches so many itches. I get to make a character just the way I like and my kinda tanky caster/haeler is having far too much fun. Thinking of picking up either Imperial pack or the Starter pack to throw a little more cash their way and for the glory of a mount.

Thank you for the offer! PM has been sent (and copied for AnathemicOne's benefit in case they missed it) and hopefully we will join in on the Guild soon, even being newbies.

I look forward to exploring more soon!

I'm pretty sure I'm still in the old one. lol

I tried pm-ing people in this thread who looked like they could invite people, but everyone I pm-ed said they couldn't. So I decided that when I got to 10 I'd start a new Neogaf guild for all the new players that wanted to be in one. I've set it so that people of all ranks may invite new members - they don't have to be Gaffers, just try to invite responsible gamers (
who won't rob the guild bank like a certain someone did in this thread
). Just pm me here with your user id (the @login) or your character's name in the game and I'll add you. Or you can whisper or mail me in game - my character's name is "Oscarx" and my login is "@K omboloi" (remove the space between the "K" and the "o" when typing).

Started playing a couple of days ago and I have much more fun than anticipated. Just did my 1st dungeon - Splindleclutch and although my party was dumb as fuck we did it, hehe.

Hey I just picked up ESO for PC. I'm playing as a Redguard DragonKnight.

I'm trying to be a DPS, which weapons, attributes and skills should I focus on getting?

Right now I'm just rocking Sword and Shield. Level 6 right now. Any insight? thank you. Tried searching for DragonKnight DPS builds online but them seem so confusing.

From what I understand you can do anything I'm terms of gear and weapons, just depends on how you skill point your character.

On my Nightblade (level 13 atm) I originally went bow and got bow skills but then around lvl 6 switched to dual wield daggers. Since at lvl 15 I get weapon swap those bow skills won't be wasted as I'll be able to switch between the two weapon sets.

Attribute wise, points should be distributed to compliment your main resource and gear. I wear mostly medium armor and most my skills now use stamina so I put points into stamina and health.
 
So Im playing as a Nord Templar. Heavy Armor and Two-Handed Weapons all the time.

Im lvl 10 now and havent spent a single skill poiny om any of my subclasses skills. Is that bad?

Are those class skills really good end-game wise?

Thanks. :)

Is the guild on the OP still active?

No, it's not (at least I couldn't find anyone in this thread who could invite people to it). I started a new one for people on the NA server: Neogaf NA. If you'd like to join, just pm me here or send me a message in game (my id is @K omboloi (remove the space between the "K" and "o" when messaging me in game).

Which faction do GAF players hang out in NA server?

The guild is equally split between the three factions. We're still pretty small right now - about 8 people, but I'm hoping we'll hit 10 members soon (and not only because I want to dump all these crafting materials in the guild bank).

There are a CRAZY amount of crafting materials lying around. Same with consumables. I've already gotten my upgrades of bank and bag (Just +1 each at this time but still!) just to try to keep up.

Sill having great fun with it.

Yes, me too! I simply can't resist picking up all the food and checking every crate (I know this is madness). I was googling around yesterday and apparently you can also store things on your horse? And you can upgrade storage by feeding it oats or wheat? And if you want it to go faster you should feed it apples? Haven't figured out how to do that yet, but apparently the stablemasters offer lessons that will improve stamina, speed and capacity of your hourse that be purchased once a day for 250 gp.

Also ventured into the pvp zone in Cyrodil and was really impressed, although I wish the map was smaller. It really does feel like a gigantic battle field. I've been scouting enemy outposts and also doing the solo pve missions that I come across. Also I'm finding much better recipes and loot in the crates (my first and only purples) than I am in the pve zones so far, so it's worth one's while to check.

I've started playing (NA) and would like to join our guild. Character name is Randomwaltz

Could we start adding our name here so I can add some of you in-game please? :)

My name in game: Raijin Cain

I'm on PC so I could use an invite to the guild

Name is Durviener

Added you all to the guild. And we finally have more than 10 members, yay, so people can start adding things to the guild bank, if they're hard up for storage (like me!) or just want to share things they don't need/want. Just remember to not put anything in the guild bank that you can't afford to lose. I don't think anyone that's in the guild would clean out the bank like MessieurCouchon did to the EU guild's bank, but better safe than sorry. So don't save anything in the guild bank storage that would be a real loss for you if someone decided to be an asshole.

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
I liked the lizardman sorceror I made when I first got the game last week, but wanted to try something different so I made a Nord Dragonknight. I Immediately loved it. The visuals of the defensive buffs with the cool molten spikes are awesome and I love having multiple melee DoT cleave abilities. I finished bleakrock last night and am about to hit level 7.

I don't know how deep I'll get into this game but it was probably worth the $12.

Okay, got it thanks.
I'll send you a PM when I'm ready. I think I'll join the guild at level 10 or so later.

Anyway, have anyone here upgraded to Win10 yet?
How is ESO running on Win10?
