    Notes de version 1.2.3


    OVERVIEW
    Welcome to The Elder Scrolls Online v1.2.3. This version contains our second major content update, the introduction of the new Veteran Crypt of Hearts dungeon, as well as many other fixes and refinements to gameplay, quests, and more. We have also added a new FOV slider for first-person view, and improved the overall interaction with the world.


    BIG CHANGES / UPDATES / NEW FEATURES

    Veteran Crypt of Hearts Dungeon

    • Veteran Crypt of Hearts is open! The lich Nerien’eth has returned to inflict endless agony on the spirits he trapped in the original Crypt of Hearts. Fight mysterious Daedra and ultimately the lich himself to free these souls in an entirely new content experience. Veteran Crypt of Hearts continues the story begun in the original dungeon. This Veteran Dungeon is intended to be a challenge for groups of Veteran Rank 12 player characters.


    FOV Slider

    • Our new field of view slider allows you to change the field of view while playing in first-person mode, and will let you change between the minimum FOV of 70 up to the maximum FOV of 130.
    • The slider settings can be found in Settings > Camera, and under the First Person section.
    • Your setting will be saved per character.


    Pick up Armor and Weapons

    • Weapons and armor found in the world can now be picked up and equipped.
      • These items are low quality, but can be used if needed.
      • These items sell for 0 gold.
      • These items can be upgraded through crafting.
      • These items can be deconstructed, but yield very low inspiration and rarely yield usable resources.


    Improved Interior Lighting

    • They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so take a look at these images of our new window projections:

    Light Jerkins

    • Have updrafts been an issue for you robe wearers? Rejoice, citizens of Tamriel, as you may now craft light jerkins for added comfort and style.


    Solo vs Group Content Callouts

    • To reduce confusion when separated from your friends while entering solo instances, all doors and loading screens will now tell you what type of instance you are about to enter. For example, the door to Spindleclutch will now be displayed as “Spindleclutch (Group Instance).”

    Official Notes now posted. Second HUGE patch in 6 weeks. I think there have been 3 patches in total over the 6 weeks.

  • MsPtibiscuitMsPtibiscuit Member Posts: 164

    "Major contente update"

    "One new veteran dungeon, based on an already existing dungeon (So only new bosses)"

    I knew that they wouldn't hold their promises about the frequency of their content updates, but I thought they had cut more content before release

    Assuming most of the fixes actually work this time and no major new issues are introduced ( unintended vet content "revamp", I'm looking at you ! ), this actually looks like a decent patch. It is certainly not anything out of the ordinary for a big money MMO at this stage of its life cycle, especially considering it's only the second actual update in the almost three months since release. The other patches were minor bugfixes ( and subsequent hotfixes for the issues caused by them... )

    image This right here lol. Zen has a strange of helping. "Hey Night Blades we buffed one of your DoTs! Oops all your DoTs break stealth now. We'll fix that later!"

     

    edit - It's actually the second update in 6 weeks. Parse it how you will though..

    they said this would be a major balance and bug fixing patch not a content patch. This patch was a serious need way more than content. The classes are horribly imbalanced like templars being weak as a wet noodle and nightshades still having major bugs with abilities. Not to mention bow FINALLY got the love it needed. I think content isnt an issue still for majority of the player base , its the vet levels need to be fixed and redesigned because most players quitting and gripping is over the vet level skill level of difficulty and the rewards and experience gained. If they actually fixed this people wouldnt complain no where near as much as most hit a brick wall by vet level 2.  I think 1.3 is the dye system and other quality of life changes and some content though.

    Perhaps patching the game to make it console worthy.

    Lots of fixes but is there any new content?

    ESO has me thinking about buying a ps4 for the console launch image. We will be able to port our PC characters over.

    Why are you defending Zenimax? Pre-launch they talked of having a sub for which they would provide new content every 4-6 weeks. Now its - we launched an unfinished / untested game, have to put staff on so no content - you understand yada yada yada.

    (To be fair Zenimax have managed (just) to release two patches and this does have some content in (just).

    Contrast this with BF4. Launch a disaster. Post launch however BF4 had a dedicated team for new content.

    EA had no option. BF4 has an optional subscription plan. Customers bought a subscription; customers get new content for their subscription. What a novel idea! Oh - they get bug fixes as well.

    (To put things into context BF3 had 2.5M subscribers - EA booked $124M subscription income @ $50 per premium member.) 

    Like I say a novel idea at work. Quite a popular topic on WoW forums these days.

  • azzamasinazzamasin Member UncommonPosts: 3,105
    Is it worth playing now?  That is the question I have with the game.  Are Nightblades fixed?  Is the game 100% about ranged attacks?

    Sandbox means open world, non-linear gaming PERIOD!

    Subscription Gaming, especially MMO gaming is a Cash grab bigger then the most P2W cash shop!

    Bring Back Exploration and lengthy progression times. RPG's have always been about the Journey not the destination!!!

    Medium armor has strongly boosted stamina synergy, and they boosted up some weapon skills (both melee and ranged) significantly.  NB DW/Bow feels measurably stronger.  (And, in quality of life things, the guild stores have a much more functional set of filters for searching.)

    - melee dmg output is still subpar in pvp compared to any other ranged variant: with risk vs reward in mind, staying ranged you risk nothing and get all the rewards, melee you risk everything and deal pisspoor dmg even with a legendary 2h, full medium armor r12, capped stamina, 45% crit and about 180 weap dmg unbuffed;

    - Heavy armor still useless in cyrodiil (or anywhere, for that matter) as every cloth wearer that knows what he's doing, runs with capped HP and armor exactly like any plate wearer. Except that plate wearers get nothing in return (in combat health regen? like you could regen anything when sniped 2 times for 1300 with animation canceled of heavy attack that adds 800+ )

    - an already OP bow (pre-patch) is still the only viable stamina based weapon in pvp. hits like a truck, from range, with light/heavy attack. Snipe has 1-2shot potential, and now is casted even faster and can be used at even shorter range.

    This game had so much potential, but clearly whoever is in charge has other priorities (like adding fancy lights instead of fixing pvp).

     

    Another disappointment. Quite sad, I like the game but I don't like being forced to play cloth/staff or bow, because everything else is not equally viable.
