Daggerfall Covenant queuing into Aldmeri Dominion Servers as Aldmeri Dominion tying up our server

wouldn't a simple fix be not allowing any member of a group to enter campaign? You'd have to ungroup before queuing for campaign.

Didn't they do that already? I didn't think it was possible to queue as a group any more.

Yep, still possible. Just tested it again.

I was hoping you were right.

Whenever we get a "we are looking into it" reply, then nothing more. It means there is a problem, people are exploiting the problem but so far the number is low and ZOS is trying to keep it quiet.

So I tested again today to find out if the queuing under the opposing faction still works after the update. It does. Please fix this. PVP is one of my favorite parts of this game. I'm demoralized to the point that I don't even want to play PVP under these conditions where this exploit is possible. Please do something to make this not possible.

@aegisfire1975 How did you do that? I thought group queuing (which you need to use to do this) was broken?

No, group Q works again.

Wow... 5 months later and still no update? We've had Morrowind, HotR and numerous patches but this problem still persists?

Also, why can't we simply see the amount of people instead of 2 bars but just for our own faction?

That way we could make more strategic decisions. I mean, if the interface shows lets say 120 AD players, but you go around and see literally one or two small groups and zone chat is empty, that would be a clear indication something is going on?

There is no way on earth that let's say 30 people are PvP'ing and forming groups and 90 other players are RP'ing? Doing quests? That could not be true either! The amount of times I see faction pushed to the very gates, 2-3 pop bars yet there is literally a couple of people around? I mean, where are they? Humping Sorcalin?

If that is too much to sort out, why not even just tell us what the bars mean? 1 bar: 0-60 players, 2 bars: 60-120 players, 3 bars: 120-240 players, locked: 240+ players etc, etc.

Unless those numbers have been given in the past? I'm just making a wild guess. Would it be so unfair and exploitable to let us know how large of an army we have and to actually see the extent of the problem?

So there's one AD character in a group of DC characters and the AD qued up and that counts towards the AD bar? How? Doesn't the group disband if there are different alliances in the group? It does for me or kicks me from group.

If what you say is true then it really needs to be fixed. It's an exploit but if they are knowingly using the exploit then I would consider it both and exploit as well as cheating.

I'm sorry I know this thread is old but I'm quoting this post to confirm this is not a problem. I grouped with 1 friend then 3 friends, and each time I queued the Cyrodiil server it would not let us, we had to queue seperate then once in cyrodiil then we could regroup.

The only thing I can think of that fits your description is a bunch of people queue into Cyrodiil as DC, once in quickly log out and log back in and requeue under their EP/AD toon, thus having one alliance toon in the server that hasn't fully logged out and a different alliance toon logged in that they actually use. Well I mean know how you log out, it says if you force log out before the timer yo stay logged into the server. I think that is what they're actually doing.

Thus you're thread and my thread asking for alliance lock per campaign makes sense. I too asked, and a lot of people agreed. Poll shows the numbers, but ....... well here we are. In campaigns where there is little of each of our factions while the other side seems to have endless and endless supplies of people massively zergballing.

I thought that in the patch they changed it so that cross alliance groups could no longer group queue for Cyro. This would be for Dragon bones. So if you are trying this on PC it should be fixed. Console next week.
