Have you played PvP in Cyrodiil before?

Yes, I've played in Cyrodiil before

Over the years, I've had various experiences. There's a lot to do in ESO and its never been my favourite area. I've taken part in minor skirmishes, been killed in solo battles when I came across people wandering. I even enjoyed it when I wiped out some unexpected individuals in Bruma and other towns while doing quests. I preferred being a healer when playing in groups.

Sometimes I crossed whole maps without meeting anyone.

Yes I've played and no I did not have a good time. Latency and lack of groups are biggest issues for me.

"Talos" and "Numidium"...

We already knew conclusion of this war anyway.
So I don't have much interest against this Cyrodiil contents from 2014.

It's not really clear on what this poll is meant to say. If anything it needs more options because the people who joined in once 5 years ago, hated it and never went back are voting for the same response as people who play it multiple times a week.

Alternatively, there are people who played it and didn't like it are also grouped with the people who have never tried it.

I did try PvP with some of my friends years ago but I didn't like it.

I have played a lot in Blackreach and Greyhost. The biggest issues facing group PvP is the no healing cap that results in un-killable or hard to kill groups and single players that can only be killed by 15 players at once. One thing I notice from the Vengance testing is the high heath and very little heals resulted in good play overhaul wiether group vs group or 1vX where the X was no higher then three. 1v4 resulted in quick death, unlike Greyhost where it takes upto 15 to result in death. Due to that, there been a steady decline where players leave for a better game for PvP or just do PvE only.

Where is Cyrodil? Do you mean playing the Oblivion: Remastered game?

I play Cyrodil quite often and love it most of the time. I hate the lag and poor performance that is going on in Greyhost lately though, and Blackreach is a total freakshow with what is going on in there. It's a textbook example of why the campaigns need to be alliance locked and why you should be allowed to only enter into one campaign in any given month for your account because that kind of griefing is what kills campaigns.

I used to play there pretty often. Would go in on a healer and follow the zerg healing and helping out where I could. It was fun, until the ball groups showed up and ruined it all. Now I only participate during whitestrake.

Not interested.

Quite apart from anything else, this forum has seen so much negativity for years in relation to Cyrodiil - performance, balance, ball groups, tea-bagging, among other things - that it's difficult to see why anyone would want to start going there.

To find out the truth.
Most of what you hear is exaggerated beyond belief.
The positives far outweigh the negatives.

Surprisingly, some people legitimately have never set foot in Cyrodiil, and I hope to encourage them to give it a shot.

What for?

When I first started this game, I was nervous about playing PvP. I didn't touch it at all, until by some misunderstanding I was invited to a Cyrodiil group by one of my guilds. I gave PvP a chance and it's been one of my favorite experiences in this game to date.

I hope to encourage more people to take that first step, because it could give them another reason to play this game. I totally understand if PvP doesn't appeal to you, though.

I'm not sure a poll is the best way to make that point.

I've never been to a football match, because I don't like watching football. I know it's one of the most popular types of live event in my country and a lot of people do enjoy it, but that doesn't make me think I should force myself to try it just because they do.

Same with PvP. If someone tells me they haven't tried Cyrodiil in ESO because they don't like PvP in general I wouldn't expect that telling them other people who are not them and clearly have different preferences to them do like it would convince them.

Maybe if the poll had more options it could be more effective, like showing how many people who mainly play PvE will play PvP sometimes because they think it's fun even if you don't commit to playing regularly and don't expect to ever be that good at it.
