Battlegrounds suggestions

Just a short list of suggestions, and I don't want to engage with silly arguments. I'm keeping my forum account clean.

Okay, the lists!

-Surrender button or reduce the time in each match/ remove rounds
Details: sometimes when your team isn't right, you just can't win no matter what there is no come back system players can work on and yeah i do bg every single day thats all i do, and i played league, cs go, pubg, valorant, fortnite all of the PVP games for decades even joining their local tournaments ! so i was shocked there was no surrender button or any comeback system


Make it more skills-based instead of gears
Details: yeah, I get it, you worked insanely hard and paid all of the DLC to get those gears to have a better advantage, but some players don't, and new players or even long-time players who couldn't buy the DLC will continuously suffer, its not a healthy relationship you want for this mode, people will quit bg or the game even. Don't get me wrong, i bought all the dlcs, premium pack etc etc, but when i see other players who don't and just use normal gears getting wrecked, it's sad and not fun. fake even, everyone should have equal footing before the match starts to truly test your pvp skills.


-Fix Combat delays and dsync
Details: i asked multiple veterans in BG and 3k+ folks about it, and apparently I'm not the only one dealing with this. This is very crucial when it comes to pvp, you can't have insane delays. Each decision you make can mean the difference between life and death. Even popping up a potion to heal or rejuvenate your mana or stam, it needs to be on time and not a single second of delay, especially ww healing skills yikes, that needs to get fixed so many delays seesh.


-Revamp the system for bg before implementing a kda mmr
Details: I've seen so many people wanting mmr based on kda , I do too, if the PVP isn't gear-based, cause the ones who have every DLC or subscribed to eso+ will obviously be at the top of the pyramid. There is just no way that base game players can have fun when their options are very limited , no mythic , no DLC gears with crazy stats etc, it's basically pay to win or pay to access and win lol


-Easier reporting
Details: i have to press f5 and click whisper to grab their names so that i can report. I wish we could just click report and that's it

-Better drafting
Details: yes this was the first thing that blew my mind, there is no proper drafting system its all too random sometimes you can have full dk while the enemy has a sorc, healer, dk all that is needed to win + has better cp distribution, our team was below 1kcp while their are above 2k , i know CP is disabled and doesn't work but the player who has higher cp will likely has better gears and knowledge of exploits so it does matter.

and

Finally, a real anti-cheating system
Details: im saving the best for last, there will always be cheaters in every MMO or pvp games, league, pubg ,csgo , fortnite , valorant. ALL of it has cheaters and script runners, eso is no exception. If a giant mainstream pvp game can have constant cheaters plaguing their game when they invested millions, if not billions, in an anti-cheating security, then yeah this is far from Fort Nox, The only difference is that they have a live detection system like in Valorant (Vanguard), This is so satisfying i wish eso have this for bg or cryodill just watching cheaters getting banned then denying like he didn't do anything while also deleting their twitch channel feels wonderful hopefully eso will have this in the future for PVP

1 more
Exploit testers
Details: having a dedicated team finding exploits and banning players who abuse it in PVP is much needed

Done! i try to keep this as polite as possible just my two cents

    The only thing I can add is that I think all the game modes need reworked.

    Domination: swap this to hard point or king of the hill with a rotating zone every minute or something.

    Crazy king: this game mode is is just worse domination just replace it with something else

    Capture the relic: just make it 1 relic in the middle, make picking it up unbashable but you can’t use snare immunity, speed buffs or damage shields while you have the relic so that your team has to run you back

    Chaos ball: again this game mode is just bad, it relegates 1 person on your team to be a useless tank that holds the ball and doesn’t play the game. It’s not competitive or interesting.

    Death match: this is fine

    For ranked I’d really like to see a gw2 style arena mode. 3 zones that can be captured neutral or enemy controlled

    I like most of these suugestions.

    Surrender button could be abused. Sometimes people are mad at you for not being good enough, and instead of letting the game finish fast, they'll hang out in spawn, or jump down and crouch/cloak to waste your time.

    Maybe a Mercy mechanic like in Destiny 2 would work better. If the beginning of the match is extremely one sided (for example in TDM, if you can't reach the 25% score threshold before losing the round,) then the match is over.

    As for MMR, it can't be fixed and implemented soon enough. The quality of games I've had is awful. Either we completely destroy the enemy team, or we get completely destroyed by them, with very, very few balanced games here and there.

    I don't think gear should be a deciding factor in matchmaking, and I'm actually having trouble thinking of any DLC dungeon/trial gear that is popular in PvP. Maybe mythics? Can't think of anything else.

    The final suggestion I have is to make it so that only one battlegrounds game mode is active per week. If you knew what game mode you were getting into, you can better prepare and build for it. Though, I have a feeling many players would be against this...
