Time for a new open world pvp area?

Getting back into pvp this past week for the midyear mayhem got me thinking that maybe it's time for a new open world pvp area. Don't get me wrong, I love cyrodiil but we have been in there for past 3 years. Yes cyrodiil still has lag issues and all that junk but it would be nice to see a new zone layout and some new keep architecture in the near future.

    For now the new PvP maps are just BGs.

    I like Cyro but give it a world boss and mobile flags like spy groups and supply caravans to attack/defend.

    Or they could incentivize us to play more of the map in Cyrodiil. I wouldn't be opposed to another area, but so much of Cyrodiil is wasted.

    Outside my of the event Cyrodiil is no where near this active and the little action IC is getting is merely due to one achievement for the event. Why create a third PvP zone?

    It would be nice to have a zone that isn't revolving around capturing keeps/flags etc so that small scale or solo could actually be possible without zergling destro ball groups (and no not the Imperial city)

    Every zone apart from the alliance specific zones should be PVP / contested zones. So we get some open world PVP going.

    What is the sense other then the environment?
    First ZOS should get solved the problems in PvP, lags, roll backs, kicks aso.

    thereafter we can think about other areas, otherwise it is just spreading existing problems.

    After 3 years the damn deadric invasion is over...they need to (at the same time all in one Dlc) make Cyro a PvE zone with new qeusts and refurbished IC with civilians moved back in and make a whole new zone a PvP zone with more reasons to PvP than just going from keep to keep. Complete revitalization of ESO PvP. I'd pay another 60 bucks for that.

    Cyrodiil isnt open world.

    Open world PvP means I can goto Craglorn and gank people.

    Cyrodiil is instanced, meaning that you have to que to get in, and to leave... You dont just leave, you have to wayshrine to leave the instance. Unlike PvE instances, you have to actually goto the wayshrine too.

    I'm all for open world PvP server, meaning I can gank you outside glenumbra.

    I don't think we need a new area as much as we need incentives to tread off the beaten path in the map we already have. I mean seriously when was the last time you saw a big battle in Cheydenhal, one of the coolest locations in the game? I don't even remember the last time I went there- because there is no reason to go. We have so many cool locations that people don't even know exist because there is no reason to go there besides sightseeing.

    Nah...the game just needs to have "events" similar to planetside.

    For example, an event will start with an on screen notification. You go to base, pick up the quest, and begin the event.

    The event could be: capture most of the ring keeps. Capture the outer three keeps, capture bruma, capture sejanus/ outposts, achieve 1000 faction wide kills, capture scrolls.

    It could be somthing that says "capture ADs scrolls/ particular keep or set of keeps/ outpost/ town" for EP/ DC on offense and AD on defense. The event ends when the time runs out or the objective is completed. Massive AP gains for winning faction. And a new event starts after say 15 minutes.

    The same can be done with IC

    that would be so awesome!
    hopefully has some daily repeatable quests also :)

    I want to see a solo-only open world format introduced. Alliance war style or just lone wolf, but with a 1 man group restriction. Would add the only type of pvp missing from eso entirely.

    Don't need a new area, really.

    Just need reasons to fight in the other 80 per cent of cyrodiil that nobody ever fights in.

    I would love a new open world PvP map with new buildings and topography to run around in. I'd love for it to be as large as Cyrodiil and as diverse in its landscape, but just different in the objectives you siege and fight for. I would pay for a DLC like that.

    Maybe a new map could be set in an Oblivion realm. No need to use an overworld zone so PvE'ers can be happy that their zone hasn't been potentially stolen from PvE content. Maybe it will no be lorefriendly, but I couldn't care less.

    "I am a nightblade. Blending the disciplines of the stealthy agent and subtle wizard, I move unseen and undetected, foil locks and traps, and teleport to safety when threatened, or strike like a viper from ambush. The College of Illusion hides me and fuddles or pacifies my opponents. The College of Mysticism detects my object, reflects and dispels enemy spells, and makes good my escape. The key to a nightblade's success is avoidance, by spell or by stealth; with these skills, all things are possible."

    Start with making districts in IC the same as the towns in Cyro, force us to fight in those well designed buildings no one goes in atm, i think it will do the dlc a lot of good

    They should update the terrain around keeps and key choke points to look like a more war torn area. Everything is still too green and "pretty" for there to be a 3 year ongoing war.
