Faction lock: we need a very short term campaign.

It seems to me the folks that are worked up about faction lock are really looking more for a one and done pvp experience. They don't care about the capaign, they just want to play a few hours with friends. In theory that's what bgs are for... Except you can only go in with a max of 3 friends.

But if your one who wants to get rid of faction lock and bounce alliances every night, what's the point of an extended 30 day campaign? It's superfluous to what your doing. The folks who like faction lock are actually looking for that extended loyalty factor.

So do we need a campaign that resets every day or maybe even every couple hours? For those cyrodill pvpers who are just looking for a large scale but short lived pvp experience?

    If the 7 day server is not that active right now because people like campaign rewards, I don’t think it would work. A lot of us as well faction swapped to help balance the map. This would do nothing for that. Glad you are trying to think of a compromise though.

    Who we? If you don't care about the campaign, why do you care whether it's 30-day, 7-day, 12-hour or 90-day?

    I appreciate the fact that you found a good compromise that makes sense, kudos to you.
    But personally I think they should just faction lock the 7 day and leave the 30’ day unlocked.

    Faction lock is for true PVP heads so it makes sense for the 30 day campaign to be faction locked as non faction lock people obviously dont care for scoreboard or they would stay farming on their main alliance.
