Can we please get some answers about the future of PVP? @ZOS_Kevin

I quit WoW and numerous other MMOs for the same thing. PVE side has more players= more care, PVP goes on life support even though so many people want to love it. There are glaring issues that could be fixed in 1 hour with a hotfix but we get radio silence for large amounts of time. Why don't all of these good suggestions get replies? I play this game, possibly the MOST out of anyone on NA, for specifically BGs. There is absolutely no way that the devs or team that works on PVP actually play it daily or anything past "testing". We want to know what you are going to do about cross healing, every other post is about it. We want to know why in 4v4 non deathmatch games start with 1 objective so it turns into whoever just gets to it faster and then self heals/tanks for 5mins. We want to know why there are lobbies being started without enough people when dungeons and other systems in-game already have UI in place that won't start the activity until everyone is ready. We want to know why there are medal based leaderboards that no one wants. They should be removed entirely and the only thing that should matter is Win/Loss with a way to see your rating go up or down, it just makes even more healers/tanks due to getting high score. I've been rank 1 multiple times just by going aoe healing over time build for 1 day of the 7 and getting insane points whereas when I'm dmg you get 1/4 the amount, which shouldn't even matter! You can lose every single game but if you are healing you will be rank 1 for the week? So between medals not being fair across the board and the fact it is just time put in, no one actually cares about it. Just because there isn't a better game to fit what we want to play, doesn't mean you all should just give up and look at charts to determine what changes to make. I would love to have a chat through voice or email with the dev team if they want to hear from someone who literally NO-LIFEs MMOs to help them hear what hardcore AND casuals want. Some of the new changes have been great but overall it has just shown the issues that the game already has and it is showcased even more. With having a streamer event soon with one of the biggest youtubers SypherPK, you have a real chance to get so many people back into this game for the pvp, if I was him and played some matches, it is just going to show how bad the systems are at the moment. I already made a previous post on changes that could be done overnight that the community talks about often. We just need more open communication, your PVP players feel like you don't care. The saddest thing is all the people holding out hope because of this games insane potential to be great. I can't speak for everyone in the community but posts like these are not to say the game is trash and no one should play it, it is us reaching out and hoping you all will put time and energy into a game we love being a part of. Please open the lines of communication up and show us you want to make PVP more fun for everyone.

Fully seconded!!

Cross healing isn't that strong. Pointlessly parsing pure healers is the real problem. Gotta focus the squishy ones.

Well, considering Microsoft's position and the recent events with ZOS, can you really hope for anything substantial in the future????
