Re: How was the ESOC team involved in developing DE?

It's a bit sad that you did this work for free but thanks a lot ! I'm really happy I got to contribute to this game in an official(ish) capacity. It's been a dream of mine for a really long time. Hopefully it will be good me professionally as well if I choose to explore game design more. If you got...

Re: How was the ESOC team involved in developing DE?

Hey people, How did all of this work out? Did MS simply 'steal' balance changes and maps? The same obviously goes for maps... In my answer I'm not going to mention anyone else out of respect for privacy and potential for lashback about more restrictive NDA's. I think I'm in the clear to talk about ...

Durokan's DE Custom Map Workshop

I am creating this thread to host custom map requests and resources for DE similar to my RE thread over here: https://eso-community.net/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=4748 . I'm not sure exactly what I'll be doing in regards to this but also felt that it was appropriate to create since I've done a ton of ...

Re: DE list of issues

[mention]u430[/mention] Ozarks is mostly fine. New England is mostly fine but hunts tend to spawn a bit too close to the ponds. In general hunts seem to have lax constraints on where they an spawn. Lot of maps have hunts spawning on top of cliffs (e.g. Dakota). Also can you check the constraint on ...

Re: DE list of issues

I get that. Weird that unknown wasn't upgraded to "unknown fixed". I thought riki made that version himself. Maps had to pass QA and it's really hard to guarantee that all of their spawn requirements are met on unknown given how random it is. I think they were not met 100% of the time and...

Re: DE list of issues

My issue on Amazonia was with the market. On GP the issue is with the tp socket and all your in base res essentially. Sometimes your mines are ridiculously far, next game it’s your trees, next is your tp socket is too close. Ask Greatscythe for more details on how the spawn can be whack. :kappa: “G...

Re: DE list of issues

[mention]u430[/mention] part of the issue with sometimes not getting a starting hunt or the hunts being too far is because the TC spawn isn’t fixed. This is why on GP or Amazonia for example you have the tp socket or starting market literally touching your TC. On Bayou you still sometimes don’t get...

Many map are not clearly better than RE. Yukon, NE and ozark for what i have seen. Could you be more specific about the issues you have with those maps? He means they have still few herds. Gotcha ok.

If you can also get a list of the maps with obscene treasure amounts that'd be great. I didn't alter any treasure logic aside from being told to set tier 4 treasures to tier 3 for 1v1

Do the random map script from CC work in DE when placed directly without any modification? Depends on how you define "working". Yes all of the maps load just fine and are playable, There is a new third trade route type for the south american maps so there is no guarantee that you will be ...

Re: Official Definitive Edition First Impressions Thread

Some of these maps I've seen on streams like the Yukon and Ozarks reskins barely look any better than typical RE spawns in terms of res balance. What was wrong with them? Looked like 2nd/3rd hunts were quite far. I think it goes without saying that if you can't get a 2nd hunt under your TC many MUs...
