Why can't we have this?

Why can't we have this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNuuwewSipk

Seriously I don't understand, the content is already made give it a good elo system of some sort allow 1/2/4 man teams and maybe an option to make it 1 team vs 1 team?

It's so simple yet so effective all the PvP players will be happy and It's good business which will allow for tournaments and a chance to be an actual big esports event.

I as a pvp player came back recently after not playing for 7 month because cyrodil got boring and due to IC being released we all hoped for arena dueling now that we are all done gearing up again it will be back to cyrodil for the same old boring zerg fest with no real sense of achievement or skill.

Please can you address this and let us know if there is any point of us hoping to ever receive anything like this?

I'm sure a lot of players want this also and it doesn't affect the PvE players or get in the way of what they want to do

Waiting for private serv with this.

Maybe someday when Zenimax doesn't have their hands so full they can organize these.

That's the thing, if they just introduced arenas that players can instance themselves into they wouldn't need to organise anything...

kenpachi480

this would help make the game so much more fun

thusfar we only got IC after quakecon 2014 first time showcase

DannyLV702

I'm surprised people actually play in first player mode lol

Corzz

Yeah first person mode looks horrible for pvp

ZOS says this will ruin cyro pvp. But really people will realize just how unbalanced the game is right now.

It will take a lot of people out of Cyrodiil but people would still play there if the rewards were worth it. Just close some campaigns (which they already should do, wonder if they notice I've posted that yet?) and have cake and eat it.

they need to close some campaigns anyways.

because ZOS hates us

BugCollector

Yeah, this should have been in the game from the start.

Sorry, hands are full, can't release good stuff for free.

I still don't understand why this isn't in the game yet. It's only the most asked for thing since launch...

@SleepyTroll got it right. In a small scale isolated fights all imbalances would be in spotlight.

You mean we can't spam full heavy attacks in the air while aimlessly running backwards in a small circle?

I know we shouldn't focus on silly things here and I don't want to start anything, because I want this very badly.

But...Who are these terrible players in this arena fight?! Did they take random people from the crowd and give them v12 characters??? Where are the combos, the defense methods, the aggro?

Bashev

Cause the QQ and nerf threads will double or triple. Classes are not balanced, skills are not balanced => game is not ready for it. If they increase the numbers to 8-12 vs 8-12 then it will be AoE spam fest.

Only if we get an option to change alliances for v16 characters. EP is all over xboxome

I would really like a response from Zos on this. I hate cyrodil and when i'm in it I look for small scale fights, and its a huge time sink.

The players who like the big scale pvp will still be there so it wont kill cyrodil, just like players are going back to cyrodil after grinding IC for their gear, there is no escaping the zergs they will always be there!

Since so many people feel this way, perhaps adding content right now is not as good as addressing existing issues...

tordr86b16_ESO

BECAUSE IT WOULD DETRACT FROM CYRODIIL, I'M NOT THE ONE WHO SAID IT, CAME FROM PAUL SAGE OR MATT FIRORS OWN MOUTH.

Funny how IC had the same effect.

SeptimusDova

We cant have nice things bcuz they get broke all the time.

tordr86b16_ESO

Cause and effect ZOS...

Having not watched the video and just going by the thumbnail - is this Colovian Crossing (4v4v4 battleground) again?

nimander99

Whats really amazing is the guy was pvping in 1st person

n.milseb16_ESO

I know so many people who want battlegrounds.
Many quit the game cause there is no content for small scale pvp! Everyone was like "The game is really nice, but without battlegrounds... no way..."
There are many small scale pvp firends in this game who are bored of the Cyrodil AvA and wish this kind of content so badly.
Actualy i think Battlegrounds would attract many players!

Didn't IC already do this?

Many of the top PVPers have stated that this game is more balanced for even teams and small scale pvp. And really, no mmo is balanced for 1v1, but they do have this feature because it's fun and keeps players playing.

This game also isn't balanced for 20v3 Zerg play AOE spam either, but that's what it is. Structured pvp is more balanced than anything we have right now.

You know, to Bad they couldn't use the pts to test something like this and see what the community thinks. Have like CP brackets or something to keep the CP bitching down. And then maybe one that had no cp.
