Battlegrounds are awesome!

Spent the majority of yesterday doing battlegrounds. Awesome fun!

CTF is not fun.

Queue times are horrendous... my group and I typically had to wait 20+ mins before finally getting into a match. Would continually see messages of group forming or another player did not click ready... and the fact that we can't play in Cyrodiil while we wait makes for some extremely boring wait times.

But I have to say, the joys of not getting zerged down are fantastic!!

Also, I will admit that I stand corrrected... BG's without CP was the smartest direction for ZOS to take.

I am looking forward to the queue and group bugs being squashed and further improvements being made.

All in all, excellent work ZOS and thank you for Battlegrounds!

The joys of not getting zerged! But queueing in to a full premade of 2 sorcs and 2 (inster class here) while you have 2 pugs who don't listen. Or queueing solo because none of your friends play this game anymore and getting rolled.. because premades!

Also less having to run magelight constantly! There's no reason when sorcs just kill you in 2 shots thanks to healing reduction!

(Sorry. Kinda of salty.)

Without CP is amazing for sure. I really hope they keep it that way.

I love the high action pace, for sure. But yeah.. that queue timer needs a fix.

Heal reduction? No one has posted any specific information so, some of us console players are in the dark, is there a healing reduction beyond battlespirit?

Agreed, capture the flag is completely asinine in design. You shouldn't be able to pick up relics by simply walking over it, that just removed all strategy in favor of which team had the most sprint build stamblades to run around and avoid fighting the whole match.

Picking a relic up should require interacting like Press E or Use Synergy, it should have a cast time and be interruptable so that you have a defense vs offense dynamic. Also, holding the relic should apply some sort of major debuff (like disabling sprint) so that it requires teamwork to cap one.
