Save this game with Arena and Battleground PVP

Make it so good please will give so much more to do. Give rewards based on ranking system so once teams reach a certain rank for their team in arena they can purchase certain rewards. Also give battlegrounds some new rewards to buy with AP. I'm sure @ZOS is working to make it really good but I have been waiting for this since I bought the game so I have high hopes. 2v2 3v3 5v5 teams

✭✭✭✭✭Sorry. Would be too difficult to implement Arenas/Battlegrounds.
It's not like this was a feature of the game they showed off 2 years ago or anything....3 -

✭✭It wont save or break the game. The game is going to be just fine with or without this.7 -
Svalinn✭✭✭well i do totally agree that an arena and team battles etc would add a LOT to the game.. expecially end game.. expecially since it would be a PvP without the massive lag of open world.
But really.. if there is a game that i think does not need to be "saved" it's ESO cause i really don't see it dieing anytime soon even without the arena xD3 -

✭Theres tons and tons of games with Arena/Battleground, innovation saves this game if anything. I bet cooler Cyrodil attract way more people to the game than Arena/Battleground. The fact is that MMORPG genre is full of copycat devs, even Zen themselves, anyway innovation can go very long way.Edited by Sausage on April 24, 2016 4:16AM0 -

Actually, it might improve the Cyrodil situation significantly by reducing the number of people playing there. Fewer people = less lag.Edited by khele23eb17_ESO on April 24, 2016 6:00AMP2P offered you 'hell yeah!' moments. F2P offers you 'thank god its over' moments.2 -

✭✭✭NO! Arenas ruined pvp for several mmos ALREADY, we do not need a failed model put into this game. The people that designed arenas in the first place said it was a horrible idea. Battlegrounds would be ok, but for the love of Sanguine NOT 4 v 4 s.2 -

Want to provide some official statistics to back up that? Oh you can't, you have no clue of percentages that PVP and that don't.
Don't provide opinion as fact. Allot is not any set amount, more is.Edited by Guppet on April 24, 2016 10:35AM0 -

Don't provide opinion as fact, you look like an idiot.
So you can claim that an awful lot of people like something but someone else can't claim that more people don't like it? Both are simply expressing opinions, but only one backs it up by personal insult. Remind us again which one is the idiot?1 -

Allot is not a claim of any set number. More is over 50%, when there are two options. One is far more of a wild statement than the other. I never claimed either side was greater then the other, he did.

Why you would implement a failed gametype that ruined multiple mmos is one of the biggest blunders in the history of this game. Battleground 8 v 8s with objectives would be fine, but arenas, ugh....unless the trinity is STRICTLY enforced, are just going to be an absolute catastrophe, just like every other mmo that tried it.0 -

They listen to twitch streamers too much thats why. They were for sure IC would please the pvp community it didnt. Battlegrounds and arenas will be no different. They will complain about how they implement them. Complain about every aspect. Yet ZOS continues to spend millions of development dollars trying to please them. I will never understand this about ZOS.3 -

There is enough pvp players that do.
So don't if you don't want to but why try to pee on those that do?

Well... i am mainly a PvE player but i've got to say this... i don't hate PvP.. in fact a nice 1vs1 fight makes my blood boils... what i hate is open world PvP... expecially when it's not purely PvP but PvPvE like in ESO because it forces me to mix PvE and PvP togheter locking PvE stuff in PvP areas... and that is something that just break the enjoyment of the game for me.
I'm sure i'm not the only one.. there would be PvE players very glad to have an arena like the one we had in oblivion, the same goes for PvP players and at the same time it would be a "lag free" kind of PvP that owuld also relief the stress on cyrodil...1 -

✭No one knows the numbers that PVP compared to those that don't, only ZOS. But there is one thing we can all easily see and it can't be disputed. There are 1,900 posts about adventure zones and group dungeons, but 11,000 about PVP.
So anyone not thinking PVP is a big thing in this game, your wrong, very, very wrong.3 -
Orgrimar✭✭✭The combat is so good in this game. This would create great competition and awesome synergies of different combinations of classes on arena teams and in battlegrounds. Arena titles would be cool too, maybe spectators could watch also? It has so much potential and would be so fun for players, has ranked and unranked matches to que up for maybe from some cool arena town. GgAD

Yep, because those few streamers clearly represent the mass majority of pvpers.

They should just take the "ES Oblivion" kind of arena and make it PvP... that means we would get a quest line related to the arena, 2 different costumes related to the arena, arena ranks, the chance of betting on the fights.. i don't remember if there was a "spectator" mode for it but shouldn't be too hard to add xD0 -
Sardath✭✭I don't get why people are against arenas and battlegrounds. If you don't like them, don't play them - they never killed any games.
In my opinion, they are a must have for any MMORPG. The time/money investment for their creation should be relatively small and they offer endless content to keep players entertained. Why wouldn't you want that for the game?
My only gripe would be if they tie it with the gear system. You shouldn't have to grind for gear just so you can have a quick 4v4 fight, it kinda defeats the purpose.2 -
I have really been hoping they would make arenas and battlegrounds. The lagging zergfest of cyrodiil was boring after about a month. I love fighting other players but not what cyrodiil offers. I pretty much only duel now or get a small group and kill people in IC. The pve content is already good. There is more than enough to keep me busy. One thing I would really like to see would be a leaderboard for Ingame eso achievements. I'm almost at 15,000 points and I want to see how I compare to other people. It would give me a reason to try for more as well.0
