Guest, it's time once again for the massively important and exciting FoH Asshat Tournament!
Go here and give us your nominations!Who's been the biggest Asshat in the last year? Give us your worst ones!
FYI there was a Q&A on Craglorn a week or so ago and it was confirmed that you can take as long as you want in the 12 man raids and still get the full loot drops from bosses. The timers are just for guild ?p?en bragging rights.
Considering how they treated the Elder Scrolls franchise, I would not exactly be dancing in the streets of joy from hearing ZeniMax is developing a Fallout mmo. An official announcement that they were working on a Fallout mmo would inspire me with roughly the same amount of confidence in a good product for the fans of the franchise as Uwe Boll getting the rights to another gaming title movie.
Regarding layoffs. Not sure how it is seen in this business, but if you are hired on for a project to do X work, like Moon mentioned, then it isn't really a "layoff" when it is finished and you have to leave is it? I certainly wouldn't regard it as such. Layoffs of people who were still on as lead developers and were due to be working on patches/new content, would be a concern and a different matter though.

But it's not. It's designed to be able to be done by one person, but adding people will make it easier and faster.

If they are doing a Fallout MMO maybe they can learn from their mistakes. They got caught behind changing tastes and tried to play catch up. Also fix the megaserver tech or throw that shit away. Logging out and in to fix quests breaks my immersion.

As far as PvP exp, well I'm attempting to be a full time healer, so yea reward wise I'm probably doing it wrong. Yet I keep people alive for my tiny exp ticks, assuming I even get them
(I don't always!).But no need to be a prick to shore up your side of the argument.
Umm, Zenimax has been involved with the Elder Scrolls series going all the way back to game #1 Arena. They have been in control of the franchise since Day 1.

Healing is one of the best ways to get XP and AP in PVP - you get 8 Veteran Points per tick of Rapid Regen that hits a friendly target who's been recently damaged by an enemy.As far as PvP exp, well I'm attempting to be a full time healer, so yea reward wise I'm probably doing it wrong.

And yes, I'm a prick. 100%
ZOS has been around only for ESO. That's it. You're confusing Zenimax Media and Zenimax Online Studios.

What has got you upset this time? Pointing out that Zenimax has been in control of the Elder Scroll series since its outset? Were you not aware Zenimax and Bethesda were owned by the same people?

Ha! Could you imagine this clown being around from the beginning...
"At this point in the evolution of MMOs, every MMO has tried something at one point or another that you're going to do in your game. There aren't any more truly innovative features."- Matt Firor
God, I love that quote.
Good call Xaxius. The current state of Mythic says everything about Firor. Zenimax should take note of that.
Trying to tie TESO to the history of TES and Bethesda is just ignorant.
edit : I think Mythic only have Ultima Forever - a mobile game - in house now ?

Well they replied about the account they banned, which accused of duping (and it didnt dupe). What a pathetic customer service reply:
I asked them to tell me how that account duped, I told them I was mailed the items they claim I duped. I'm pretty shocked that they think thats a sufficient reply. Can they not be bothered to have "upper management" explain?
You're pretty fucking wrong. Don't know why you keep continuing down this route. ZOS was created just to give Matt Firror a studio to make ESO. That is all they have been doing. If ZOS is gearing up for a Fallout MMO then people should be concerned for it's quality.
