Elder Scrolls Online Beta

Thats my issue, the combat. I am constantly stuck comparing every mmo to pre-1.04 AoC combat with animations and speed. Only game I have found is neverwinter with the speed of gameplay and skill required by the player. TESO after level 15 with the weapon swapping does open up the combat but it still feels slow and methodical. Your waiting for a ability to come off cooldown and there is no way to chain together a good combo sequence.

the map size for TESO does make small group organization possible, you could hit and retreat and be able to outsmart a zerg, not so boxed in like gw2.

The question is is it worth $60 to see how it plays out the first month? paid for SWTOR and had fun with that train wreck for 2 months. Same for GW2.

And having a subscription is a great thing for a mmo, there will be no pay to win in pvp. very rarely are the free to play models very free to pvp

There are no cooldowns...

If only I had the money to pre-order

There is a pretty significant cooldown when you swap weapons.

No more NDA

PvP, atleast its not GW2 zergfest of fail. Its a huge step forward from WvWvW in GW2. No lag and you can see opposing players name and communicate. The lag is probably the most impressive thing with the combat, there is a ton of crap going on and its smooth even with a beta build. No fixed points for siege equipment, and many different siege stuff and different ammo for each. Started as a ESO hater, but the siege zone is pretty epic. You can run into houses and all types of place to hide and find supplys.

Against NPCs, not other players.

That's why he just said "in pve". They also improved animations and the feeling of impact in combat. In other words, they are paying great attention to the community feedback. You can also skip the starting areas now.

Like someone pointed out, the weapons swapping. Last beta went bow bow and it would have been epic if there was no wait for the knockback dizzy.

The only CD I notice with weapon swapping is a bit of lag in highly populated areas. I'm able to swap my weapons near instantly when there's only around 20 or less on the screen.
