    @TESOnline Fix the curator bug for the Night Market! Can’t see the quest starter in store or in game?!

    @Swurv__ I don’t know about that. The Elder Scrolls used to be the gold standard in open-world RPG’s, but since then the industry has shifted dramatically and there’s a lot of competition. Elder Scrolls has a Bethesda problem if anything.

    @TESOnline This is all great, but can you fix control layout B? You don't jump until you Release the thumbstick. Imagine if you didn't jump until you released the face button. It's awful and has been broken for years now.

    @TESOnline I feel like crossplay is a waste of time it’s just gonna cause more issues for the devs

    @Bethesda_UK Fix the game instead of promoting it. I've never had a game crash this bad since Elder Scrolls Online on PS4.

    We gotta beat elder scrolls YouTubers with the mace of molag bal for spewing the **** that oblivion leveling is bad and remaster fixed it when the issue is the unique pool is still level scaled horribly and enemy pool of levels still is just reach a breakpoint and its all ogres

    @WoodsMonk @TESOnline Only problem is if we got them to change it for Solo players while this season is active, would they give us back the days we missed, or just say sod you. :/

    @TESOnline None because the “talk to the curator” quest step is broken

    @LeonardFrom719 @Burnvolver @humorMEplzz How old are you to talk like you are 5, do you speak to your father and mother that way? Don’t call her a *****? Grow up and stop insulting people just because you feel like it. There are many examples of utterly broken old games on release, like the old elder scrolls, dwarf fortress, super Mario for Nintendo 64, Spyro etc etc

    @RonnieBlaz3 @TESOnline Never had any issues with the server (EU PC)

    @MedeirosDa61624 @TESOnline Exactly, it’s your experience. Unfortunately it’s not everyone’s experience. It doesn’t take much to see all the forum, reddit, facebook posts and most importantly what you hear in your community. It’s a growing issue across servers but I’m sure some are worse than others.

    @MoonBeamFlare @TESOnline I had the same issue until I was finally able to go to the main map, then to fargrave where the icon showed up and I could finally transport there. Don't waste your time unless you laugh at Veterans dungeons. It is ridiculously hard.

  • CameTooFast
    Alex (@CameTooFast) reported

    If this is true, @asha_shar , I think the best thing you could do would be to drop the price of ultimate to either $20 or $25 and stagger the addition of yearly COD titles (and possibly others). COD grinders are going to pay full price for each title, regardless of if you say it'll come to GPU in 3 months (There's a lot of people that buy the game through Blizzard launcher anyways). Each COD title feeds into Warzone, so there's an incentive to play each title to level up guns and get an advantage. Putting it at a 3-month stagger for GPU would pull in the sales from those dedicated to the franchise while also giving a good date for those that wouldn't have bought the game no matter what. As for additional benefits, you could look into first party offerings. Fallout 1st would be an easy addition, as would something for Elder Scrolls Online (as I know they just switched strategies from big expansions to seasonal content like the norm). The problem is, the benefits you add have to be beneficial to justify the price hike. You guys raised the price and gave us Fortnite Crew, which is beneficial to a number of people, but a ton of the other GPU benefits are for already F2P titles, most of which no one cares about.

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline I bought the Starfield Premium Edition upgrade a while ago, but I still can't install the Terran Armada expansion. What's the problem? It's not included?

    @S_h_a_n_e @TESOnline Yea ik the feeling would be nice but will never happen 2 billion company that can't even fix day one bugs lol

  • Senninsage
    SenjutsuSage (@Senninsage) reported

    Yes, Elder Scrolls 6 with no guaranteed release date or anything, or even a guarantee we see it in the next 5 years. The belief alone that it would launch day one on Game Pass made me value the service enough to continue paying for it every year until it appeared.

  • madcap412

    Xbox failure as a console is unforgivable You had Xbox (Halo, Gears, Fable, Forza, Psychonauts, Killer Instinct, Banjo, Conker, etc) + Bethesda (Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Dishonored, Wolfenstein, Doom) + Activision (Call of Duty, Crash, Spyro) + Blizzard (Overwatch, StarCraft, WarCraft, Diablo) = and still produce the worst console of this gen...so unsuccessful you went full third-party publisher....and are STILL a horrible multiplat publisher Xbox has been an experiment proving that Microsoft is unfit for gaming They need to sell their IP's to more worthy companies and **** gaming

  • GetFitWithJared
    Jared Shapiro (@GetFitWithJared) reported

    @Xbox_SUPERFAN The thing with COD versus other first party games is they have 3 studios working full speed to crank out a $400+ million AAA game annually. Halo isn't doing that. Elder Scrolls isn't doing that. Forza isn't doing that. Those games on Day 1 are are all big value adds for Game Pass. If they remove them, they're going to see massive churn. I'm assuming behind the scenes they either didn't see a big enough bump in subscribers for COD or they saw a lot of people sub for a month or two, only play COD, then bounce. If that's the case, and you have polls all over the internet saying drop COD and make it cheaper, then I could see the business sense there. It doesn't make sense to risk subs and cut other first party games from the service, but there's always a chance the economics change

    The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered from Bethesda Softworks still suffers from severe technical issues including persistent crashes and performance degradation over a year after its April 22, 2025 launch.

    @TESOnline Before adding “CrossPlay” FIX the SERVER! It literally cant handle the current population, yet ZoS wants to add more content /players to a Unstable server that has been broken for yrs on PC. from what i hear on consoles as well. All we want are stable/reliabe Server ZoS!!!

  • EarlDiggs3rd
    Earl Diggs (@EarlDiggs3rd) reported

    @bethesda the problem about Starfield fallout and elder scrolls is every time they update one they break the game so the gamers jump to another Bethesda game until they update and break that game. I caught the Bethesda triangle.

  • Darellano344205
    Darellano (@Darellano344205) reported

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline What is the point of performing such lengthy server maintenance when you fail to ban players who use hacks to glitch through the ground in Cyrodiil—and, above all, those bots that farm materials and XP across all of Tamriel? It is contradictory and feels like a mockery of us

    @younghavok Elder scrolls 6? Story mode overwatch game? Crash bandicoot? Spyro? Halo remake? Fallout 5? Fable? Souls like WoW? They didn’t even try

  • MadoochiMoola
    MadmanMadoochiMoola (@MadoochiMoola) reported

    @Pirat_Nation There is a very clear expectation from 2 totally different TITANS of the gaming industry. On one hand, Elder Scrolls 6. and on the other, GTA 6 1 is going to literally shut down countries and cause economic issues when it releases. The other one is going to be a 7/10 on IGN

  • JB_Warsmith
    JB-Warsmith (@JB_Warsmith) reported

    @Alex_Kozinets @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline What lag? I don't have lag. I got disconnected at a very inconvenient time, and was presented with an idiotic long login queue. I still wasted almost half of my remaining gaming time of the evening, which btw is already very limited. So frustration is high when **** don't work.

    @BethesdaSupport @TESOnline Crossplay or not we pay for a service and this maintenance means most people can’t play today

    @joseagu59410157 @TESOnline If it's not happening in mass, on a predictable basis, then chances are, it's something about your system that is causing the problem.
