Yes, that's exactly what I expected.

The advantages of one team's strength are always obvious. Previously, it was possible to compete at least for the second place and get more AP. The players simply refuse to go down and wait until the end of the match. How could this not be foreseen?

It was more than foreseen… multiple post on the forums throughout the whole pts cycle. But in classic eso fashion no feedback was taken into consideration. But hey! They will adress the issue in a year or two so just be patient

In another 8 years they will.

Yeah the games where I'm on the weaker team is pretty tough. You'll get bow users light attacking from the spawn platform. The tiny map with the hanging bridge over the slaughterfish pool is brutal for this. The map is too small for 8v8. Most of my games on that map have the opposing team camping at our spawn and nobody can get down from the platform.

I don't think 8v8 should be on such a tiny map, at least not for DM. There should be something in place to help people get off the spawn platform. Invincibility? Increased damage/heals? I don't know but its brutal to play. In DM the 2 team dynamic encourages spawn camping in the current state of things.

I had a couple deathmatch games on that map where the score bugged so we were there for 15min just getting our sh*t pushed in at spawn. My team had no support, mostly just noobs using bows. The game ended 0-0 (this is another issue, as well as the failed matchmaking not filling teams).

Hopefully we see some quick action to fix these issues...

The maps that I have been a part of are ridiculously small. It does not appear that a lot of thought went into this.

Score bug happened to me as well.

Every bg i have been in has been completely, COMPLETELY one-sided outside of one bg where there was one death because everyone was playing round Robin on the three flags. This is not fun for either team. It is tedious, boring and the bgs end way too soon, if they start at all.

Which brings me to my last point. I joined two bgs where they were cancelled before they began, but after I waited for five minutes for people to join. This was slightly more fun than the bloodbath mentioned above.

So far these bgs on live are a complete turn off. There is nothing fun about them.

Bgs are the only thing I play this game for any more. I go get new sets and mythic to try them in bgs. With this change i may no longer play bgs and have no reason to play any other part of the game. Very disappointed.

Khajiit's primary pvp was the 4v4v4 BGs. Khajiit tried 4v4. Not going back.

If it weren't for delightful Brother From Other Mother Zerith-Var this would have been a complete disaster. As it is, this one is more sad and salty about the BG fiasco than any other change to hit ESO in past 7+ years.

To Cyrodiil This Nord

He Swallowed his sword
And climbed aboard
The new bg horde

Nord was so bored
He almost snored
Then pulled the cord

Out his heart poured
Onto this message board
But ZOS just ignored

Pvp he is moored
So now he moves toward
Ball groups to be gored
