Faction Lock in Pve

Victor_Blade

Since faction Lock is a thing now in PvP and it probably won't be reverted, why not add faction requirements in trials too. 3 DC 3 AD and 3 EP or go home. Since pvp balances changes are effects of pve and vice versa, I don't see why this can't happen.🌚🌚

I'm trying to come up with something quippy to call these "let's go back to pre 1tam" folks...

We have "flat-Earthers" and "anti- (insert whatever proven science you don't agree with)", so why not "empty-zoners" because that's exactly what would happen lol.

Honestly don't buy the whole "going back pre-1T would cause all zones to be empty" thing.

Remember that all zones back then had at least 3 separate instance branches (pre Cadwell's Silver, Cadwell's Silver, Cadwell's Gold), each with their own sub instances.

Going back will have an impact on populations per zone, don't get me wrong, but I don't think it'll be as extreme as people make it out to be.

Other.

Remove PvP so you can have Better PvE since PvP effects PvE. I thought people who wanted no faction lock were all going to swap to standard thus killing the population of faction lock? The option is there right?

Remove PvE so we can have better PvP.

Also, what changes have effected PvE that were because of PvP? Besides ult cast times, which is a VERY bad change.

Darnit, I couldn't find the option for "Troll spotted."


(Though I also don't like faction lock, as now my pve toons cannot skyshard hunt if I want to play pvp on a different toon.)

Really? You could always skyshard hunt on the faction unlocked campaign, Bahlokdaan/Laakvulon.

Doh, totally forgot that option, thank. But I still don't like the lock.

But I hate the other two alliances, they are enemies of the state. Fudge em.

Sure if implementing faction lock in Pve allows me to kill you on sight if you aren't DC then im all for it lol

Noooooooooo
I wanna play with my guildies or random players in a trial/dungeon

mocap

how about faction lock in Character select screen? Once you picked your specific alliance character you can't change it for 30 days

Ahahahaha, yeeees, let those role players who asked for faction lick cry too
Seriously - no. Factions should not affect any aspect of the game beyond story quests.

mague

Nice trolling here

There IS an unlocked campaign. The problem is that certain entities want to force everyone else into "their" game as cannon fodder and so this campaign is dead empty. Meanwhile 30 day CP is the new ZvP or zombie vs. player campaign

Same in PvP.

You'll just have to make new toons.

I'd vote yes.

I mean, hell. Look at the game's state. The server, the events, the combat, the patches, everything.

Why not just pile more on top?


Maybe we come up with something better when 80% of the population left. Better server performance?

Also buff Altmer, Bosmer and Khajiit. Nerf the rest.

PvP is a mini game and should be treated as such.

Not on Xbox. There's still a significant queue during prime time in the faction locked 30 day here.

I won't rise hopes. Given that average population already dropped to 2018 numbers, and servers still feel bad despite all optimizations... Bethesda/ZOS may be even decreasing amount of equipment! I mean - more players left, less hardware is dedicated to ESO. Maybe they gave some of the ESO server capacity to TES:Blades. If you compare time when mass performance problem began, it matches release of that god forsaken mobile game.

This game is like Fortnite, the original PvE game is dead, PvP is the saviour.
