    I can see that being an issue with any server. If people from other parts of the world play outside their region, they would have an advantage during non-peak hours.

    Can't think of anything worse than coming back on after a sleep and seeing the whole map STILL dominated by Aldmeri (Past case of Versidue shae).

    If anything, we WANT the American players to come on after we have gone to bed to take stuff back. At least that will make it interesting and give me something to do when I do play!

    Anyway, in my experience, most of the time there isn't enough American players to take one keep overnight let alone all of them. If they do, as I have said, brilliant! More action for me

    More action but at what cost? If you go and bring all yer forces and crush them when they try to take a couple keeps, that will only serve to make them NOT want to play even more. How about EU plays on their own &*^%$$% server or begs ZoS for one so you have proper competition?

    There is also Australians that play through your night so telling us Americans to leave the EU server really doesn't solve anything. Plus, the NA Server queue to even just log in sucks. Anytime I have tried to log in to the NA server I have had to wait up to 30 mins so I will definitely be sticking around the EU server. Plus, all my playing buddies are on this server. I am AD by the way.

    I'm almost, no I am, 100% certain it's not American players in the EU server doing this. It's people in Europe, Russia, Middle East, Africa and anywhere else in the region who don't play in the UK evening who are doing their PvP at night. This is a slightly reworded, but standard "night cappers are ruining this game" thread.

    Face up to the fact that if you happen to play at the same time as them (American perhaps?), then you'll always be outnumbered. But take solace in knowing that you'll get invaluable experience in how to manage encounters between a small group and a 'zerg' which you can bring to use during the evening when everyone's got a zerg.

    If you're one of the hundreds capping the map, reroll to DC or AD and have fun killing your fellow EP swarm and all the resultant AP from it.

    I used to play late at night on the weekends on EU PC server when reds would have a full raid against maybe 6 DC players and I learnt an awful lot about how to disrupt zergs and how to get in and out of them without dying. You won't be able to stop them, but you might be able to distract them or learn to pick off the stragglers and healers at the back. Those tactics are then extremely useful during primetime if you're in a small group or solo since you can contribute to beating the zerg by picking at it bit by bit until there's nothing left.

    What do you mean "How about EU plays on their own &*^%$$% server" ? We are talking about an EU server here with NA playing on OUR server, no need to get worked up about it, the issue really isn't that bad. And competition is fine, just have to pick the right campaign as most are dead from lack of players. More are leaning towards Azura's Star that seems quite evenly matched.

    I don't see how this is viable or fair in any way shape or form. What about all those that have different work or sleep patterns where the only time they can play is past 12am? Implementing a night cap is just a silly waste of breath even talking about it. It would push even more players away from the game as a whole.

    If you really have that much of a problem with "EP winning ever time" then move campaign; there's enough of them!

    Ok, so I went back and re-read the OP's post. I'm still confused as to what he's complaining about. I think it's the lack of English writing skills. Is he crying about being on the wrong faction? Is he crying about being asleep while U.S. players take over a server? Or that there is too many or not enough U.S. players? I don't get it. (he wrote "us" instead of U.S. is what threw me totally off)

    I was thinking he's complaining about EU players being bored because they were taking over U.S. servers (regardless of faction) because the U.S. players were asleep. This has been a common theme on the PC side. In which case yes..play your own timezone/server. Otherwise I am sorry for my own confusion.

    Same thing happens to NA servers in our campaigns. They need to allow transfers once the game dies down a bit to ensure balance.

    Who's 12am?

    timezonemap.gif

    If it is "yours" being the UK 12am that gives the US players 6-9 hours of full points while excluding USSR/Australia from really ever getting to play primetime at full points.

    The point is this is a global game and your timezone isn't special, there are people all over the world that are playing at their prime time. You realize that 4am GMT is 8pm US PST right?

    So basically if you live in California your primetime PVP action is hindered because the UK is sleeping?

    Tl;dr really weigh the fun you have in game vs the business practices you are supporting.

    I currently play on NA Haderus (PC) and i actually welcome the night crowd.

    If it wasn't for them, the map would be just one color 24/7 which would be awfully boring.
