PVPer's whine that nobody wants to PVP with them. Yet, when players do show up and put lfg in zone chat, they are consistently ignored when groups are running, and they're not all full. You guys damage your own play. ZOS doesn't need to.

Groups died years before they cut down the group limit.
PVP guilds died many years ago as well.
My friends list is now suddenly half inactive with people last being logged into the game 4+ days ago. They’ve all gone to a new game and if that game successfully keeps their attention, there is little to no chance half my friends are coming back to play ESO.
ZOS... you need to give people a reason to play your game. There have been no announcements and no indication through years of content releases that brand new PVP content is going to be released. Without anything new to play, discover, or learn, then people have absolutely no incentive to come back to your game.
Are you going to release some new PVP content soon? If not, say goodbye forever to a large chunk to your long time player
If this is the right person don't you just play no skiled carred ww in bgs? Could just try to find ur carried build in NW?
I have played since beta.
Nothing was like that first year of PvP. The Q's to get in would sometimes reach over a hundred. There were handfuls and handfuls of guilds on every alliance. Ever since, however, it has dropped. The Q's got smaller. The guilds vanished. Sure, new guilds would pop up, but never last too long or be how it was in that first year.Blame this, blame that, there is a lot of blame to go around, but it's always back to the lag. No one wants to play in it. It's been a problem since day one and most have just come to the conclusion that it will never be fixed. It is what it is.
It's a business, and ZOS seems to have found their bread and butter and they will milk it for everything they can get. I understand it, but it's just frustrating that we never got those huge large scale battles that was promoted before the game even hit beta.
I remember the hype and the claims. Huge battles with hundreds of players. Siege everywhere. Bows all over the top of the keeps. Players able to climb the walls. Battles that would seemingly last hours.
Instead that first year in huge fights, all you would get on your screen was insane choppiness and rubber banding. You would be smashing buttons and just hoping to see your side still alive after the server caught up.
ZOS has tried some things in hopes to try and patch it up, but these tests and cheap shots in the dark just never work. I get that they want to try and patch it before committing to upgrading server hardware, but it's beyond that time now. They have killed the entire PvP community. This is the worst state this part of the game has ever been in. Yes, it's basically at an unplayable point right now with the server performance and the lack of PvP players.
I have no idea what is going to go on from here.
From what I understand, that wait was with multiple campaigns being cap locked on slow weeknights and having a much larger cap lock to begin with. If that is true then that mass exodus happened years ago.
I am certainly not leaving ESO for NW even though I am playing NW hoping there is something good in it eventually. I played in NW since Alpha when it was more hardcore in every aspect than it is today.
It is funny how little PvP that is happening in the game since most players are not flagged. It used to be full-time PvP for everyone even though few players actually attacked me back then and when they did they seemed to be pretty bad at it. You could loot them once you killed them. It was a pretty good idea but they could not cease the PvP greifing so they tried to go PvE.
Which leads me to my final point. Sometimes I think people want NW to fail out of spite, or just to be able to say 'I told you so'. They say there are already problems in NW, it wont last, etc....I would like to remind everyone of ESO's launch....

It makes it real hard to come back.
On console the grey host campaing is still full on prime time, as always. The other campains 0 bars. Pvp still going strong. In one campaing. Like it always was, in the old 7 day shor campaing there was action too, but it is gone.
They should delete blackreach and replace it with 7 day cp-enabled, no proc, campaing. On console. Many of us would play that.
I still love pvp cyro, i have played daily for many hours, will never stop. Best content in the game. Don't know how anyone can think pvp is repetitive compared to trials, dungeons or questing. Lol

It is a different game attracting a different player type. So go play NW and please stop trying to turn ESO into NW.
Most of my friends would be back in a heartbeat if ESO fixed performance.

And how 7 day campaign would be more attractive than 30 days one? It was mostly used for farming/selling emperor but rewards was worse so not many home it. If you have characters on different alliance Blackreach is good alternative to GH even if it’s dead on other servers though on pc eu it still has consistent 2 bars pop and reaching 3 bars pops on weekends sometimes and more importantly much less laggy than GH.
