    I always wonder why people make (or at least try to) direct comparisons to games that are from completely different "Generations". It like comparing the original Counterstrike (which was an addon to Half Life for those that don't know) and BF4.

    Markets change, and it's up to Companies to try an cater to those demands.

    However what I don't get, is this notion that people seem to have about how mandatory it is for Games to cater to every person.

    The Doomsayers of gaming communities remind me of petulant children scream at their parents for not buying them that box of coco pops.

    TESO doesn't have Arenas, simple as...

    Want to play a game that has them? Then why not open your eyes and find 1 that does (trust me, you won't have to look too much)?

    As far as I'm concerned, the only way this game will fail, is if they deviate from their original vision for the game.

    You actually PAID AND SUBSCRIBED for it.

    If you didn't feel stupid before not knowing the difference between the GW2 logo and Ebonheart Pact then it should be sinking in right about now...

    My suggestion is stop cause now its both in the game and on the forums your taking a beating.


    Stupid is as stupid does...

    You don't get that.. let it sink in for moment..

    I actually like this game.. its people like you who I DON"t like...

    Let me guess you are probably the type of player that suggest people go back to WoW..

    Not realizing that this game needs all the subs it can gets and its attiltidudes like that caused me to create this thread to begin with..

    You love messing with my "pvpness"... Go suck it! lol... (sound that out you will get it when it sinks in..)

    You don't like me because you made yourself look like a fool?

    Then you tell me to suck your pvpness? Then laughed at your own creativity... Too funny indeed.

    You like this game SOOO much you can't tell the difference between a GW2 logo and Ebonheart Pact....

    You never bothered to comment on that little part.

    You also are simple minded if you think zerg vs zerg is all that is in this game.

    All people LIKE YOU do is pollute the forums with crap making it harder for the ZOS staff to find the good ideas and genuine stuff.

    Get over it there isnt any arena and if there is going to be one, its not going to be any soon.
    I'm sorry did I have to mention a dirt old MMO to make a point?
    SWTOR FFXIV GW2 and etc are doing incredibly better then DAOC and AoC.

    Soon is also a opinion I'm not expecting arenas asap next two updates will be for the PvE community and we probably won't get imperial city till fall or winter but after that hopefully duels and competitive PvP will be added.

    You just compared MMOs that are a decade old to ones released in the last 3 years.

    FFXIV is not real PvP. GW2 is an embarrassment and SWTOR is a JOKE as well.

    Any credibility you might have been searching for was lost right there.

    DAOC has and will always be the standard that people will hold newer MMos too in terms of fun PvP. The only carrot on a stick is Realm Points for abilities.

    People played because it was fun. If you are so interested in Arenas play another game that has them. Stop whining here or PvDooring like you probably do.

    Open World is the only thing that can be considered "Real PvP" because you just have NO idea what is going to happen. The amount of variables is too high to account for. That is not the arena.

    I am not saying there shouldn't be an Arena but the first campaign isn't even over yet.

    Take a deep breath.

    I agree open world can be blast, However it can also be a detriment, Warhammer did the RVR servers right by not allowing the lvl capped toons to go to the starter zones and grieve on the newb's. Ya I know you need to pad your Kill to death ratio and what better way to do that than go kill some lvl 3's

    Anyone ever wonder why the PvP servers are always the first to get merged?

    Unfortunately it's not the Open World that is a detriment it is the people who play it.

    People are always looking to beat the system or make themselves feel better by griefing players.

    I agree there should of been two different Cyrodiils. a 10-49 and a VR1-10.

    Battleground would be awesome with like a smaller version of Cyrodiil as well.

    Arenas Could be fun as well so long as they are directly involved with Cyrodiil itself.

    AMENNN!!!!

    When you try to cater to everyone you lose your niche crowd and eventually fail catering to everyone because project scope is dangerous especially after release of the game.

    Keep it simple and once everything you have is running smoothly then re look at the options.

    Also the minority are usually the most whiny I mean vocal.

    Just be nice if we got an option to PvP not AvA.

    If we at least got duels at least the community will be able to create their own arenas with arena themed guilds.

    That would further show all the broken abilities if people were able to be dueled. Between the API nerf I see very little chance of dueling happening. It's the only way we can REALLY test abilities to see if they are working or not.

    Dammit! You are right!

    It is also the same logo as Mortal Combat, part of the Dragon Age logo, a whole buch of chinese restaurants
    and a local icehockey club in Germany:
    20120818-RWD-Drache-Logo-Vektor-quadratisch-300x300.jpg

    There really is something going on here. What do those things have in common? I mean for TESO and GW2 it was pretty obvious and even Mortal combat fits in a little bit but the other things? This gives me goosebumps!

    I had a blast in DAOC as a solo rr13 scout for years, and when I didn't feel like soloing I went to defend keeps from the zergs.

    The game is young and so are most of the people playing it, when people start figuring out for themselves or seeing DAOC vets using the open world strategies we will see a lot more stealth wars and "8v8's"

    Arenas saved swtor, really? maybe things have changed drastically in the last month but last time I played swtor nobody did arenas on purpose and half the time if an arena popped most of the group left.

    I dont know what trailers and utube videos of the pvp action you watched before ordering but AvA is mass warfare and you must be clueless to think the pvp was going to be arena or whatever you are whining about.

    I guess dota 2 is a kid game and the winners of this year's tournament get 1 million dollars per player because arena combat is for kids....

    the fact when MLG recognized super smash bros melee but I've never seen DAOC get praised by anyone other then nostalgic DAOC players.

    Also there is no MMO with an open class system that has arenas that is just a void in the market ESO can fill

    "Real pvpers" who don't like zergs stealth, wow kiddies who think pvp is in an arena complain about zergs on the message boards.

    I had a blast in DAOC as a solo rr13 scout for years, and when I didn't feel like soloing I went to defend keeps from the zergs.

    The game is young and so are most of the people playing it, when people start figuring out for themselves or seeing DAOC vets using the open world strategies we will see a lot more stealth wars and "8v8's"

    I guess dota 2 is a kid game and the winners of this year's tournament get 1 million dollars per player because arena combat is for kids....

    the fact when MLG recognized super smash bros melee but I've never seen DAOC get praised by anyone other then nostalgic DAOC players.

    And what MMO besides WoW has MLG shown off?

    I'm curious on how someone who hasnt played DAOC would praise it?

    Youre comparing a top down view moba with an mmo like they are even remotely the same thing, I cant help you.

    SWTOR,GW2,Runescape and Planetside 2 They got invited but MLG really didn't like what they saw.

    What you are saying is that the game is sinking and arena pvp would save it.
    Nope. Just nope.

    Arena, structured pvp, whatever you want to call it, never saved a game, if anything, it helped sinking it even faster.

    If arena pvp games were really so popular you would be playing one.
    It saved Swtor...


    Also I still enjoy other aspects of ESO that is why I'm sticking around(I know shocking)

    Just be nice if we got an option to PvP not AvA.

    If we at least got duels at least the community will be able to create their own arenas with arena themed guilds.

    If that's the game you tout as being saved by arena you might want to give up.

    SWTOR according to BioWares earning statements before Arenas were introduced was doing just dandy.

    And I'd bet the farm it hasn't seen a major increase in paid subs since Arenas where released. I would even venture to say the space combat release did more for getting them paid subs than that piece of crap arena system they have:

    Where if you aint a smash tard or an operative or Smuggler, like I said before arenas always end up IF YOU AINT CLASS A OR B Dont waste your time

    zergs don't make victory as much as you think. I have been with a group that defeated 30 Ad players and my group had 15 players max. mindless zergers are not that hard to deal with. small coordinated teams can beat huge zerg rushes easily. iv seen it done over and over and over again.

    No good PvPer would ever think or use the term "real PvPer", assume his playstyle as the only valid one or come up with all the discriminations people have concocted in this thread. This makes their entire point moot and, if they leave, I will gladly stand here and wave them goodbye.

    Whilst having battlegrounds, scenarios, warfronts, arenas or whatever you want to call them would be good for the game (face it, sometimes running across Cyrodiil is a chore more than anything else) with class balance the way it is you'd just end up coming up against groups of DKs spamming banner to win.

    Not that would be any different to pvp in Cyrodiil mind you...
