Why has something not been done about Exploiters Destroying the fun of PvP?

nukeemstudiosub17_ESO

How about Doing something like disciplining the EP crew that purposely exploits broken game mechanics. This is stupid. You have let the state of PVP deteriorate to the point that all they have to do is ball up and lag everyone.

Why not any action EVER taken against them?? Yet you give us new NPC facial animations and lighting effects that SCREWED the game up even more!

Get your priorities straight ZOS. Dont worry about pleasing new members. Worry about not losing the faithful players that have been here since early release.

Get rid of these exploiters. The ONLY tactic that EP has is get farmed or lag server so no one can land any hits on them. Its really quite pathetic. Without this tactic tonight alone my group farmed them for hours. When they got mad about it here comes the lag! One group is mainly responsible and I demand action.

You have banned people for less than this. Why not any action? Need proof?? I got videos screen shots etc... ANY ZOS Employee needs proof message me will be happy to provide. If only you would be happy to fix the DAMN PROBLEM!

Well first they would have to ban AD since they have been doing this for months. 2nd its ZOS' fault for having lag in Cyrodill and they know it. They can't just go around banning people for something that is ZOS' fault.

And they are working on some potential Zergball fixes in 1.6

Well the AD doing it for months ARE the EP doing it to. The former EP skelly group. Which ALSO exploited the game to get other toons on diff teams on same server. Which you are NOT supposed to be able to do.

Its just pretty pathetic. If my group wipes we analyze what went wrong and adjust. Not form lag ball and purposely lag the server

You do realize that you're going to get in trouble, right?

PvP lagballing, exploits, Emperor trading, and general poor sportmanship may or may not be things ZOS cares about, but at a minimum, "naming and shaming" will get your message edited by a forum mod.

Not shaming or talking trash when its TRUE!

I know they will silence anyone that blows the lid on the BS goin on. They do stuff like ban gold spammers. But they ONLY banned the ones that were ZOS competition. Thats right people the biggest gold selling spam company is one of ESO live's BIGGEST sponsers!!! YAY lets here it for those gold spam bans!! they helped us SO much. Almost as much as the new lighting and facial animations!


ZOS get your priorities straight.
Moderate that!

What?

How do they intentionally cause lag? And wouldn't that hurt them to?

First off no it would not hurt them. Same concept as a lagg switch in FPS games. Lags the game so hits do not register on them.

And how they cause it is spamming skills like wall of elements and spamming healing springs Even while no one is close to them them(enemies i mean)
Stacking in corners spamming skills nonstop causing lag.

They have been doing it intentionally. One of my people confronted [snip] himself he said and I quote " Im not doing it on purpose i had a phone call! (referring to him stacking his crew in corners and lagging out server) Well he sure seems to have A LOT of phone calls during game time. Not to mention the EP who have outright admitted that this specific group has organized the WHOLE EP faction to join them in lag capping keeps(turtling keeps)

Very Pathetic!!

[snip] isn't the skelly crew from AD lol. And he got to rank 44+ so fast by being on a lot lol.

I have seen some shady stuff in my time in cyrodiil but try and do some fact checks before leveling accusations.

Lol. Funny thing is that when ever yellow or Blues do the same thing , it's always the same old replies, always working as intended, lower your settings, l2p,qq,you suck etc etc . ... Nothing will change.

Man, thats some serious hurt butt. Butt in all seriousness (intended), The 'ONLY tactic EP has' might be a bit of a stretch mate. And for all you people who are so blinded by the rage of being zerg balled and want to believe its only the other alliance that does it... wake the hell up kids. The only thing different about your alliance and its player base is numbers and the color above your toons head.

All i hear is qq cause you were farming ep all night like a boss then got killed once. Who cares.

That is ***. Never happened. You are so naive to think that every player in an alliance would go along with something like that. Would you? No? What makes you think we are any different. You are blind with rage.

Really thats funny considering the spy i sent to the EP server reported zone chat was lighting up to get people to join the lag ball. You check your facts. We know they are doing it on purpose. Maybe not EVERY player but more than enough to form the lag ball zerg.

These BS tactics are the ONLY way these losers can win! Sad!

When does DC ever try to lag the sever? I have never seen or heard of DC ever using that tactic. If you say we do, give me names cause i know most all the main DC leaders. And have never seen this tactic used by DC at all.

Dont care about getting killed. It is the fact that when EP cant make any ground they form up the lag ball and start taking keeps. Just lagging their way through thinking they are tough. we have them pushed all the way back to their territory. they get mad start forming lag ball to try and push us all the way back.

And ya i havent seen many other original strategies from EP. A lot of copy cat crap and now the lag ball! Sad the ONLY tactic they have that works for them is lagging the server

Very pathetic.

WillhelmBlack

It's mainly EP that do this on the EU server as well, I'm well used to it but it still angers me from time to time. I've said this before and I'll say it again, zergs of more than 16 players cause damage to themselves...lag fixed.

Honestly you dont need more than 16 GOOD players for an effective group.

nukeemstudiosub17_ESO

I honestly dont see much of this from AD. They either have 1 or 2 very good coordinated groups. Sometimes the AD pugs Join them in the back n forth between keeps.

Its every time the EP group rolls through that everything starts getting weird. Skill animations go off but skills do not cast. Skills cast, use mana but never actually hit anything.

And the unbreakable stacking CC they use. (thought CCs werent supposed to stack) It goes on and on.

Xjcon

So having coordinated groups is now an exploit? LoL

I find it amusing that the guy who intentionally sent a spy to an enemy faction - blatantly violating the spirit of the game if not the actual rules - is complaining about other people's "BS tactics"

Yeah the entire faction exploits....but wait....I'm EP....and I don't exploit...but it didn't stop OP from making a blanket statement against an entire faction.

Whether its the whole faction or just a few jerkwads inside of a faction almost every exploit started inside AD and did not get fixed until EP and on occasion DC started using them.

ZOS doesn't care about PvP, remember?
