The survey you get when you make a charcter where you choose what kind of people you want in your game,since they don't have servers they have one Mega Server(well three for each region) so you can choose RPers,PVPers,Dungeoners.


Fair dues...Sounds like a plan!... biggrin.gif ...

do we have a release date?

No official release date yet (to the best of my knowledge). They're on the third round of closed beta invites right now. An educated guess might be: spring 2014...but who knows? smile.gif

One thing we don't need any more of in the Elder Scrolls franchise, in my opinion, is any more inflexible release dates. I'm happy with Zenimax pushing back an intended release date if they think the game needs more work.

On a separate note, has the game been released yet? If not...do we have a release date?

Perhaps 13/13/13? wink.gif

Spring 2014 is the release date.

According to gaming journalism (a source for which apparently cannot be located on the internet) the projected release date is spring, 2014.

And I'm sure we all know that gaming journalism is never wrong about anything. cool.gif

Right it is basically just a guess.

You have to keep in mind that this is a forum for single-player games. The results we see here are naturally going to be skewed. You can't place too much importance on how folks vote here.

Gamers who mostly play single-player games are often gamers who do not like multiplayer games. That's just how it is. Take a look at all the hundreds of threads in the Bethesda forums over the years asking for multiplayer. The responses are usually overwhelmingly hostile.

The opposite can also be true. There is a portion of online gamers who dislike single-player games. They think single-player games are boring because there's no human beings in them.

I'm actually kind of amazed that the poll shows as much interest as it does, to be honest.

Yeah I gotta agree with everything here. Maybe when it is released there will be a small boost in interest and forum members but it will probably be small increases if at all.

While I agree with the thing that we shouldn't believe everything we read in the mags...One thing I read in the brother's X-Box mag today was that they repeatedly asked Zenimax about a monthly subscription charge...And Zenimax completely blanked them...

The game sounds proper epic...They had a two-hour hands on sesh, and what they did in the time sounds brilliant...But I'm not going to bother if there's a monthly charge...That I can't afford...Not for a game...

I'm betting there is a subscription fee, if there is then I definitely won't be playing it.

I don't know; considering the current MMO zeitgeist for either Pay Once, Play Forever or Free to Play models, I'd reckon it'll be one of those. I'm just hoping it's not going to be a Freemium model. That would suck magnificently.

Yeah but this is Bethsoft, they've already got a fan base behind them and they're already doing well financially, which sets them apart from other game companies trying to introduce new MMO titles. We'll just have to see, everything until they announce one way or another is just speculation anyways.

I, Darkness Eternal, give you new gameplay video.

And sleep as I in childhood sweetly slept,
Untroubling and untroubled where I lie
The grass below—above the vaulted sky.”

Watching it now. Still not happy about the race/faction lock. (if it's still in and I kinda get why. I mean, can you imagine if 9 out of ten Stormcloaks were Argonians, Khajiit or Altmer?)

First of all, first-person combat actually looks neat and indeed like the single-player games. A tad too fast for my liking, but maybe that is just them making the trailer footage as exciting as possible while saving precious seconds by speeding it up a bit. I hope so. My reflexes suck.

Also neat lightning effect on that hammer.

~7:30: An Ogrim! I haven't seen those Daedric big fellas in ages! cool.gif

Ok, I skipped ahead when they started saying what mmos are. Sorry, but I have a short attention span. I do really like the look of the combat system but again, too fast so hopefully they slow it down a tad. I also wish I saw more fighting that wasn't dual-wielding. It does seem that singleweapons can block though. The quick spellcasting was hotkey-based I guess and the equivalent of all the skillslots in most mmos.

Enchanting effects are gorgeous. No more static fade-in fade-out glows wrapped around the weapon!


The Daedroth looked a tad different than I thought, but I like the more outworldly stonelike skin. I mean, it's a demon from a different dimension.


I didn't get a close-up (maybe in a part I missed), but Argonians seem to be based on Skyrims. And Skyrim Argonians rock! Oblivion ones looked kinda cute and innocent, but I like the ones who mean bussiness.

DE, thanks for the vid. It looks very interesting and the scenery looks fabulous. Having never touched an MMO before, I found the discussion interesting and relevant.

Looks like it's mac compatible. Might try it out? I dunno I always liked elder scrolls for the fact that I could zone out into it. If I gotta hear a bunch of ten year-olds screaming profanities a la halo, I'm not going to be really into it.

Otherwise, looks kinda cool, and if we did a Chorrol guild as mentioned, it could definitely be fun.

It is slated to work on Mac. PC and Mac users will play together, and then Xbox One and PS4 will have separate servers.

I would like to upgrade my vote from "Not excited at all but I will still try it" to "Very excited." smile.gif


There isn't any voice chatter that I know of. There is a general text chat, but that is easily filtered if you do not want to participate in that.
