Well, I wanted to p,at a little pvp...but guess what? I'm effing 149th in queue. So let's do a pop report, zos
Vivec: 30 day cp
Ad: full
dC: full
EP: full
Sotha sil:
Ad: zero pop
EP: one bar
D.C.: one bar
Alma: 7 day non cp
Ad: zero pop
EP: two bars
D.C.: zero pop
@ZOS_GinaBruno - this has to stop. It's ridiculous. PS4 players despise your non-cp campaigns, and you've forced four campaigns into one very overpopulated, very laggy campaign. It's unfair to your customer base, and every day we see the forums flooded with complaints. As a veteran player since PS4 launch day, I love that Morrowind is bringing so many new players to the game. But we can't get then going on pvp because you have created SUCH A STUPID UNNECESSARY TRAFFIC JAM. Be less Chris Christie...give us back more CP campaigns.

✭@Morgul667 I did not...but that's a good start. But I don't think it will solve the entire problem, and suspect that we will need a second 30 day CP campaign to resolve the utterly failed experiment with the non-cp azuras star / sotha sil.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭I like non-CP so sure hope it doesnt disappear.
I think ZOS is moving in the right direction here. They need to monitor from there and see if more campaigns are required or not (adding campaign will create issues and solve some)1 -

As others have mentioned, a second CP campaign is coming. But that's going to create a new issue. Your (AD) queue last night at 9pm may have been 149... But the EP queue was 10
Your faction outnumbers EP by a huge margin. What happens when this new campaign opens? As an EP player, for the first time in months I felt like at least the 30 day CP campaign was even population-wise.
Soon, it won't be, AD will dominate both CP campaigns because AD has more players on the PvP servers. Potential result? Yellow maps in both campaigns, with EP and DC players demoralized to the point where they stop playing and AD running around bored looking for action.
I believe this is a possibility... we'll see what happens.PS4NA0 -
brtomkin✭✭✭My interpretation of the PS4 population:
1. AD has 3 bars in Vivec and 3 bars waiting to get into Vivec.
2. EP has 3 bars in Vivec, 2 bars in Almalexia, and 1 bar in Sotha Sil.
3. DC has 3 bars in Vivec , 2 bars waiting to get into Vivec, and 1 bar in Sotha Sil.
I think that each faction has equal numbers, EP is just spread most evenly. I think there should be more motivation to spread out into other campaigns. Maybe leave standard gear as rewards in the popular campaign, add crafting materials to the rewards in another, and an AP bonus to another.

✭@dotme EP pop is always a challenge. I think ZOS could fix some of that if they opened "Any race Any alliance" for anyone. AD is helped by the fact that they have a top magic race performer and a top stam race.
They could also institute some sort of mechanism that reduces the allowed total population based on other faction numbers. In other words, AD gets a wait queue at lower numbers when EP is at 2 bars...you have to allow some variation in pop numbers, but perhaps not unlimited outnumbering all the way to full server.
They might also make some of the pvp achievements account bound instead of character bound. I'm not an AP farmer, and I'm working my butt off to get my ranks. I like being an underdog...I'd totally roll an EP stam sorc and help out when pop is low, but I feel stuck playing my main so I can keep making progress.0 -
Crom_CCCXVI✭✭✭✭✭A big part of the problem is all the multi players want to play for whatever side is winning.....
It was never this unbalanced when you had to commit to one alliance per campaign1
