    I can't wait!!!   It seems the populations has grown ten fold in the last month as peepz are anticipating the new patch.  The real world zones are packed and it has been like a new game with everybody competing for quests, helping each other, buying, selling, trading, delving, pvp and pve'n. I think it is amazing how much ESO has recovered from what I thought was a pretty bad launch.  I returned a month and a half ago and I have been addicted.  The game is WAY better now that there is hardly any glitching.

     

    oh well, I'm excited!!

    Lost track of this a bit.

    This patch is separate from the Buy to Play conversion?

    Yes it s busier, but that has a lot to do with people wanting to get free crows when it converts to the new model.

    Same patch (Justice System, Champion System) minus the crown store and b2p. On 3/17 B2P starts and the crown store will be turned on. 

     

    Here's a link to the 1.6 patch notes.

    Remember to leave your launchers open, guys. 1.6 is a hefty 20GB in size.

    Something tells me that on March 17th, if you are still using a horse as a mount as opposed to a tiger or guar, then you WILL be one of the few doing something different.

    How are you spinning an anti-blob change into a promoting blob change?

     

    Before 1.6 = AOE capped @ 6

    After 1.6 = AoE abilities can now hit up to 60 targets; the first 6 will take 100% damage, the next 24 targets will take 50% damage, and the last 30 targets will take 25% damage.

     

    Doesn't that seem like less reason to be a blob, not more?

    That's because we tested the crap out of it on the PTS for a month... you're welcome :)

    Was planning on returning, opened launcher, seen 13gb "patch", check forums and see that indeed Zenimax are complete morons, closed launcher and wallet.

    You're cool.

    Well I don't live in Ghettoville and took about 2 hours to dl (not even sure as I went shopping and to dinner and when back was done). 

     

    Patch is smooth. Game looks far better now (colours really picked up ... had to reduce my digital vibrance a bit even) . New animations are sweet and make a big difference. FPS even smoothened out a bit. Didn't play long to see much more or if bugs did appear.

    You stay sassy!

  • NomadMorlockNomadMorlock Member UncommonPosts: 815

    Hey, you might want to start by reading the patch notes. This patch affected a huge amount of itemization for the entire world as well as a ton of NPC locations and behavior, animations, etc. the amount of files to be replaced are massive. Don't you have anything better to complain about?  Really..patch is too big?

     

    just wow.
