ESO Qs

Post » Thu May 17, 2012 3:19 am

Well I'd really like to ask some questions about the new online game cause i've been hearing a lot of rumors lately,

First: on what platforms exactly will the game be released and will it be available for consoles??
Second: why are the graphics so bad ?(it's an opinion though) but i thought like why at least isn't it like skyrim graphics or even better ??
Third: how exactly will I be able to play with other people ? i mean how would i be able to interact with other real people in the game ?
,and thanks.

Ummmm really ?

First im only going to treat the first as an actually serious question, and you could have found the answer easy by reading a little, but it will only be Pc/Mac, NO console's .

Second the graphics look just fine, great in fact for an MMORPG boasting 100V100 PVP. Its impossible for that to happen with "Skyrim" graphics.

Third: Really ? never played an online game ? There will be thousands of players all in the same world at the same time, take a wild guess as to how you will interact with them.

1) No..it's an MMO, which is not achievable on console...
2) It's an MMO, run online. Usually they lag behind normal-game graphics by about 3 years. I've absolutely no idea why...likely to facilitate the large amounts of people playing, and to keep it accessible to the masses
3) MMOs work generally in a third person perspective. You will be able to see others in the game world in that perspective, and chat with them in a chat window, usually located on the left side of your screen. There will often be 1000s of other players on a single server. You may team up with them to quests, fight them if on a PvP server, laugh with them, rp with them, mock them etc...It will be nothing like Skyrim. You will not be alone, and it will have a different feel. The gameplay will be different. It is hot-key ability based. Usually MMOs have 100s of abilities, but in TESO, this has been limited to six, and excellent move IMO.

If you have any further question, please don't hesitate to ask :)

Can we stop defending the graphics now please? It's getting old.

Sure, but you said "mmo so cant be the best graphics".

It's a very common point of view on these forums, and one that baffles me completely. Especially when we're discussing a game that isn't being released until 2013, just like Blade and Soul that I linked to above.

I wouldn't say that at all, one of the best MMORPG's of all time was EQoa on the PLAYSTATION 2, and FFxi, which was an amazing MMORPG as well.

form what i'v heard and read

1)no consoles

2) the graphics are fine

3) lots and lots of ways ranging from trading and talking (most-likely) to dealvig into dungeons (Where you will get to keep 100% of the loot, everyone gets 100%, no spliting it up, supposedly). of course, i will not even mention the fighting

Oh yea, Blade and Soul will feature Castle/Fort siege type gameplay with 100V100 pvp ?
