Patch Notes: Town lines

Fixes

The new town lines show in your language when you do not play in English.

Patch Notes: Server load

Fixes

When the account server is busy, it now sends town and display data from its extra copy. This data can be some seconds old, but it does not fail.

Patch Notes: A Fuller Living World and Names of the Regions

Bigger towns have more people

  • A large city has more people in its houses and on its streets than a small town.
  • Daggerfall city has 591 people now. At ten in the morning, about 90 people are near its main square.
  • Villages and hamlets do not change.

More travellers on the roads

  • Each town sends more travellers on the roads: adventurers, pedlars, pilgrims, couriers and hunters.
  • The new adventurers go into dungeons more often. They travel in companies of their own.
  • Each day, the roads have more parties than before. More than three times as many adventurers go into dungeons.

People who stop still move

  • A person who stops in the street now looks to the side or moves their weight from one foot to the other. They do not walk in one position.
  • A beggar, a labourer or a fisher who stands at their work shows their own body. They do not change into a still picture.
  • People who talk in a group look at the person who speaks.
  • The axe of a guard who stands is always visible.

More events in the streets

  • A cutpurse can take a purse from a person in a crowd. The cutpurse runs, and a guard who is near runs after them.
  • The cutpurse does not come back to the person who had the purse. In a narrow street, the cutpurse runs a shorter distance.
  • In the evening, two people can play dice. Sometimes two people become friendly with each other.
  • A priest can speak to the people at the door of their temple. The priest speaks the name of the god of the temple.
  • A courier can call out the news.

The town watch

  • Large towns have more guards on patrol. Daggerfall city has 48 guards.
  • A guard on patrol can speak to a person in the street, buy food at a stall or tell a beggar to move.
  • A guard says good morning only in the morning. A guard buys food only from a person who sells food.
  • A guard tells a beggar to go only when the beggar leaves.
  • Two guard patrols do not go to the same part of a town.

Names of the regions

  • Each people of Tamriel now has its own names.
  • A Nord can have the name of a clan, such as Battle-Born. A Nord can also use the name of the father, with -sen, -son or -sdottir.
  • An Orc has gro- or gra- before the name of a parent.
  • An Argonian can have a name such as Hides-In-Mud.
  • A Khajiit can have a title before the name, such as Ri'saad.
  • A Redguard can have at- and the name of a parent, or al- and the name of a city.
  • A Dark Elf of an old Great House can have the name of the house first.
  • Each region has its own families. You hear the same family names again in that region.
  • On the Iliac Bay, you also hear names from Daggerfall.
  • The people of a quest that you started keep their names. Other people in a town can have a new name.

Performance

  • The game now does less work at one time to prepare the news that travellers bring. This can decrease short pauses near towns.
  • The game prepares the events of a town each day more quickly.

Patch Notes: Server load

Fixes

When the account server is busy, more requests go to its extra copies. Sign in, saves and town data fail less when many players are online.
