*** Official Elder Scrolls MMO Thread ***

I completely overlooked the skill system and the fact it would be similar to other games in the series. Now I am excited. I'm sick of being stuck with one class in mmos as I like to mix it up a lot.

Anyone got a beta key? :D

You're still stuck with one class (as it were) but having the ability to mix it up seems to be what the devs have been going for.

Latex (I think) posted a PvP video a page or so ago. A player stealthing around with a bow, drawing single enemies to look for him them hitting them with poison and stun abilities, before getting up close and switching to sword (or mace by the looks of the vid) and board and then battering them to death. Nothing remarkable about that you might say, until you realise the guy in question is actually a Sorcerer :D

Stealth does look a bit OP but it is countered by the fact that the more people there are about, the much higher chance you have of being spotted. It'll be great for sneaking up on stragglers or people trying to have a sly AFK up a tree or something, but in a mass battle it'll be next to useless.
 
One huge problem with this beta weekend......none of the new changes are implemented.

As of yet the weekend beta is version 0.7 and the new changes are 0.8 which is currently only available to closed beta players.

Bah, looks like WildStar this weekend then unless they update it to 0.8.
 
Yeah, it's the Private Test Server. They're the lucky buggers running the build we all want :D

*Oooh, just noticed that participants of this weekend test get the monkey vanity pet! The ultimate insult in PvP when instead of tea bagging a fallen foe, you can get your pet monkey to de-lice them instead.

And there is a separate EU test this weekend but clicking on the launch button re-downloads the whole client again, so make sure you copy the old one into the new folder if you have download caps/bad speed
