One Month from Launch: No Screenshots from other zones

Post » Wed Mar 05, 2014 4:09 am

I am wondering why, with one month from launch, haven't we seen some real screenshots of some of the higher level zones? Why are some of us still testing the 1-15 content? I don't get it.

Apparently NDA is still in effect for the Closed beta servers.

Stress testers are testing 1-15 content, PTS testers are in endgame stuff.

Not anymore! Our NDA lifted officially Thursday I think? Either way, we can show anything off now.

Was there something you wanted to see specifically? I can go and get footage of it right now.

I'm wondering why there is a lack of mudcrab screenshots.

I mean, this close to launch and the mudcrabs are being neglected? Such a failure.

There should be mud crabs everywhere, they should be wearing top hats and monocles, like this:http://static.gamespot.com/uploads/screen_kubrick/mig/4/8/3/2/2114832-169_Skyrim_mods_of_the_week_021712.jpg

The complete lack of high class mud crabs in this game is furiously low.

Show me your best large open area. Like Whiterun. I want a valley as far as the eye can see. Thanks

I don't think the Whiterun Hold area is in the game yet, but how about Riften and Windhelm?

I'll also grab you a nice scenic shot of Coldharbour.

Areas being higher level isn't going to make the draw distance any longer, sadly :/

Was watching 2 different Twitch streams last night that had one guy over level 30 and another guy that was level 44. There's plenty of ways to find later game content, but why ruin it? I watched for a few minutes and then turned it off. I don't want to know everything about the game before I ever even play it!

Screenshots are awesome, short gameplay videos as well.

Wouldn't want a walkthrough though, that just ruins the surprise.

Yeah, there have been tons of streams. OP just isn't looking in the right places :tongue:

And I've been avoiding them as well. Spoiled enough as it is having seen starter material from all ALliances.

We aren't testing the content. We're stressing the servers. Other people are testing the content. Like Carde, apparently ;) There's been a smaller beta team testing the whole game for months now.

I have checked stream after stream after stream. I have searched for screenshots for several weeks. Everything is the level 15 area and below.

If there are streams or pics of these other areas like you say, then link them.

There is hidden truth - there is no endgame content, only 1-15 zones.

Can't link live streams when they're over, unless they save a replay :tongue:

But Tamriel Foundry members were streaming live all weekend (apparently they got some permissions that other testers didn't have :tongue: ). They have some stuff up on youtube. Force also has some high level content vids on youtube.

And I'm not gonna look em all up for you, because I am trying very hard not to look at any of that stuff myself >< Watched one of Force's vids to get some info, but regret it :(

Oh I didn't knwo that. Great.

A couple of questions if you don't mind - what is the max inventory and bank space?

Also - what do you do when you can move into adventuring in other faction zones? Do you do the normal quests they do, but just higher level versions, or is the content completely different? Is it somehow special, like elite mobs all over? Can you realistically solo there like you can in your home zones?

Is it easy/medium/hard/impossible to get all skyshards in Cyrodil? How many can be gotten realistically without putting a huge amount of time and effort into it?

Any info is welcome and appreciated. :)

Yeah, I'm going around right now getting some screenshots of Riften, Windhelm, Eastmarch and Coldharbour, and it was snowing/raining so it was terrible, but it cleared up.

Uhh, I'll try. About all I could show off right now is light armor since its what I use and have sets of. I guess I could go get a heavy and medium set from some public dungeons.

I'll head over to Reaper's March and Shadowfen and grab a few shots from there.

I've got a good idea of something in Cyrodiil to screenshot also.

1. I have no idea honestly, I haven't maxed them out. They get expensive as hell but I know bag slots go into the hundreds. I save my gold for respecs and stuff so, not much I can do here. Maybe someone else from PTS can answer.

2. 50+/50++ zones are the exact same as the normal versions, but scaled up and much harder with loot that is also scaled up. All of the public dungeons, quests, mobs, etc are all Veteran Rank between 1-10. Before you can move on to the next faction, you need to complete each zones faction storyline.

3. Skyshards aren't hard to get, you just need to find them. The achievements tab has a list of riddled hints of where to look, some area obvious and some aren't. Every single public dungeon in the game has at least 1 skyshard in it.

Just watch the streamers on Twitch tonight. I was watching a guy quest in a level 35+ area last night.
