If you have the adventurer's pack which I believe is included with pre-orders you can create characters of any race for any faction but can't move between factions with a character.

As you play you'll eventually unlock all the storyline content for the three factions, so starting faction really just determines which side you fight for in Cyrodiil and who you can do dungeons with.

Oh, loving cool can't see someone on my friends list so I log out of the game and then instantly try to join and get put into a 1200 person queue. Great, got back in and 10 minutes later game crashes.

We're looking for fine Men & Women to help Protect the Australian Way of Life.

Become part of the Legend. Defence Jobs.
PS4 AD, name is Murodese if someone wants to invite me.

My only real complaint is that there are no subtitles (which you could rig in the PC version) and no glow around interactive objects, which is just me being lazy. Also it's pretty laggy from Australia, but we'll see how that goes as the servers get less hammered.

Nope! Servers are split for PC, Xbone, and PS4.

Intelligent and bright, they explored a world that was new and strange to them. They liked it, they thought - a whole world just for them! They were dimly aware that a God had created them, was watching them; they called out to him, thanking him in a chittering language, before running off.
Also on xbone, ebonheart for now at least. Same as my forum name. So there are at least a few of us.

Im glad my instant dislike in you has been validated again and again.
Rolling as ebonheart on the ps4 under DapperSwindler (on eso ) I am kinda mixed on it so far, its fun but i think alot of my negative feeling are from this being my first MMO. I feel like i cant find enough quests for my level and i am sick of almost getting killed by muddcrabs.

This may have been answered but I couldn't find anything: They offered a character copy from Windows/MAC to consoles but it looks like that option is expired? Any idea if it's coming back?

I emailed them about this a week or so ago, and they said there's a good chance they will allow this again but it's not implemented at the moment.

As a Dragon Knight, I've just been spending my attribute and skill points on whatever looks fun for now (aka: Ardent Flame tree). I heard I can respec later, right?
Wouldn't want to screw up my character if I didn't look up a restricted min/max build right off the bat. Also, is there any reason to go 1-handed with a shield over 2-handed or vice versa?

You can respec both your Stat points, as well as your skill points. Experiment with whatever, you aren't stuck with anything you choose.

Just wanted to mention that the PS4 guild as far as I know has not been created yet. I've more or less said I'll make it and send out invites when I hit 10, hopefully tonight or tomorrow, but I'm really only able to play late evenings currently so if someone more active wants to take the reigns and make it, just post here before you do so we can all be on the same page. Seems most PS4 goons are going AD, but I can see at least 2 that have gone either EP or DC.

Dark Brotherhood was taken so I created a guild called the Blades. It's a Daggerfall Covenant guild for obvious reasons. You can join up to 5 guilds any faction so if anyone from the heathen factions want to join you're more than welcome. It won't stop you from also being part of the AD guild when it's formed for PVE, PVP, or whatever. I'm lazy as hell so don't expect guild nights and poo poo. This is mainly for talking and grouping if needed.

I do strongly suggest using 1 of your 5 guild slots on a trading guild since that is how the AH works but I'm not 100% clear on how it works right now. I'm apart of Black Market Trading Co.

If it works the same way it does on PC, expect a weekly battle to keep your public guild vendor, and possibly dues.

Are there any goon guilds in the European megaserver (PC)?

I'm nearly at VR4 with a NB Tank/DD in EP with no decent guild to play with.

I'm usually on Edward Pierce or Donatien Alphonse, so send me a msg if you got a good guild going.

Yeah, I could see them having open transfers down the road, but probably not again until populations stabilize and new console players are maxing out characters.

So if guilds are cross faction, aside from co-op PvE and PvP, is there any reason for PS4 goons to have more than one?

All this being said I still plan to make an AD guild since I don't see people being all that vocal about this. I'll post when I do. I'll probably just name it Goon Squad or something just as goony.

I think AD is the default for PS4 and a few of us on Bone are going ebonheart (after I worried nobody else would a bunch did).

I keep getting disconnected for "spamming messages," which doesn't make any sense. Now I'm in a 300,000 person queue to rejoin lol

Aiming for 10 tonight so I can get a bone goon guild going.

Yeah I think a certain number on PS4 are still rolling AD, some marginal interest in making a Ebonheart group too, but I'll continue to encourage people rolling AD to have as many people in one spot as possible.

I'm on the bone, and went AD because a couple guys at work went there. But I've barely finished character creation, if we're all going Ebonheart I'm game. (Porktree everywhere).

First time I've started the game up. I was 10,000th in the queue to join, but that only took 30 seconds or so. Since then I've been sitting at a pretty loading screen for 20 minutes. Should I restart? Or just ride it out?

There's plenty of reasons

1) Don't have a computer to game on
2) Friends play on console
3) Prefer playing on a couch in front of a big TV
4) Is gay

I own the game on PC, but I'm switching over because all my friends only play console games.

Some valid reasons I can think of:
  • Don't have a PC (or something capable of playing it)
  • Friends playing on console for above reason
