Looking forward to participating in the next Beta weekend!

Me too dude. Me too.
I put building my own housing. Even for a instance.
Lugging big logs around and collecting materials to make furniture and stuff is always appealing :P
Next weekend? Did they announce there will be a Beta then?
Not necessarily content. What I'd like to see is more robust army organizing & running mechanics so that it's less of a pain for a leader to run a large group. Think drawing on maps and your lieutenants being able to see what you draw, arrows showing up at your soldier's feet to direct them to the objective, ranking structure, etc. But those things are pretty much unrealistic at this stage in the game.
He said "next Beta weekend", not specifically next weekend. Although that would kick ass, heh.
i wrote i want to see Collision Detection and more variety of weapon skills and class skills
I also put Collision Detection :-), but also chat bubbles, not for me, but so other high maintenance people with STFU lol, and a little more dynamic events if even developer controlled...whoops, and improved animations, especially for bow carriers. I heard they have expanded the effect of dark anchors so maybe thats in response to things like that...but they need more.

That is a good thing to suggest imho and now I wish I'd also listed that. I put that I'd like to see a server wide auction house. Unfortunately I know there are those that don't want to see this implemented but can you all imagine the chat window as every non-guilded person wanting to sell or buy crafting wares decides to use zone chat as their market place. Maybe I'm over-reacting but ugh.
Also a good suggestion imho! For those of us who would have enjoyed hit AvAvA right out of the gate, or those that have beta'd the game. To be honest, I'm dreading having to redo those first 10 lvls at launch. lol
The problem with your desired open questing like in single player TES is that TESO has levels. The zones and mobs are leveled. It's different with single player TES where the mobs' level will be scaled with your own level. I think they have to remake the game from scratch if they were to apply level scaling to TESO.
By and large I want more MMO features, at least optional. I felt they neglected the MMO part too much and tried to shoehorn it waaay to much into the ES single player concept.
-chat bubbles (for PVP!!!!)
- minimap
- nametags
- group target highlighter
- PVP commander tags
- every player can rez fellow players for free
- lower prices / better prices for selling stuff
- open the DAMN story instances to bring in friends

After the next beta weekend keep an eye on another survey to suggest Collision
. We might get another survey because i remember the very first beta, i played it and got a survey afterwards but it was very clunky and it didnt get me interested so i deleted that first survey on a rage moment.
That was a long survey
I said less instance-phasing and more stomping bed buggies
Dark Brotherhood would be nice too!

I thought there was already some sort of dev video where they talk about it but reject collision because of griefing potential with players.
After all of your latest reactions, I was expecting so much worse from you. Those are not end of the world things.
1) I put in the survey for folks like you chat bubbles, so maybe they will listen. Its certainly a feature they should be able to add at some point.
2) In a previous beta, they had nametags as an option, I didn't see it this time, Im sure it will be in for release...at least I hope so. Maybe they were worried about performance.
3) The bring in friends, though I agree, is only a restriction I've heard for the main story which is only 5-6 hours out of 120hrs and thats just the 1-50 content, not including the 50+ and 50++, so less than 5% of PVE from levels 1-50 is restricted from playing with friends. You can't live with that?
4) Can't comment on the other stuff as I didn't play enough, but none of the rest should be deal breakers, especially prices, which may be adjusted as they continue to analyze beta data..or even adjusted after launch as they analyze the economy. That is nothing new.
5) You used to be so critical and complain endlessly about how SWTOR had no swimming or day night cycles including changing weather effects. You have all 3 of these now and they are done quite well, especially the day night cycles and weather effects and the water itself including the splashing is pretty awesome when you jump into the water. I know you are not getting EVERYTHING you want right away, but why are you so quick to not recognize what you are getting when you've complained about these things in other games??????
I don't care what you say Mr Elikal, I know very well that you will be playing this game so you aren't fooling anyone but yourself lol.

The basic stuff in ESO is good. But the many small things not there or "broken" seriously piss me off atm.
- 3) I just have bad hand to eye coordination, so boss fights defeat me. Plain and simple. I need help and a MMo SHOULD allow me to bring a friend. It was painful enough in TSW to be forced to skip so much content I simply didn't manage. It beats the idea of a MMO to be force to solo.
I made a video impression, as soon as the NDA drops it goes up.
The problem is, I am a MMO addict. I play most of them. But in this case the MMO part is SO neglected, I feel I ruin the experience if I play ESO now. Maybe in half a year when they add the stuff I mentioned. It is all those small hardships which really frustrated me more the longer I played. They add up. Most of the stuff is something I just don't GET why they didnt add it. Like there is no Auction House. WHY? WTF does that serve beside needless hardship and pain. Or WHAT on gods green earth did they use the hilariously bad Skyrim scrolldown interface instead of a SIMPLE MMO like box interface where you can sort things.
I can say that, because it was said in the press previews. I am not breaking a NDA by reinterating what the press said.

I wont watch it unless you point out the 3 things in SWTOR that pissed you off are well done in ESO lol.

Well, since you've stated quite fervently on many occasions that you will never play the game, I see your requests as being redundant.
-------------------
They've explained quite thoroughly why they designed a very minimal UI. Having experienced it, and worked with it for a couple of days, I see their point regarding immersion vs having a cluttered screen. It's quite refreshing to wander the world and having your attention focus more on the environment rather than the interface. I wasn't sure if I'd like that, but I found that it really synched with me.
filled out the survey.
told them i want to be able to know how much i actually hit mobs for in some fashion, so that picking skills, abilities and weapons isn't such a crapshoot.
