All time low pvp population ( Xbox Na )

Ihatenightblades

Been playing since launch right now has to he the least amount of players in cyro in a long time.

Even primetime Friday afternoon yesterday not one alliance had 3 bars and on top of that there are the least amount of campaigns atm ( 4 )

My guess is people are sick and tired of the lag and frame rate dropsin pvp including me. Ya i know most people are trying to avoid cyro because of load screen issue but even before that it was still starting to die.

If pvp dies the whole game will eventually die you can count on that.

I think ZoS should spend the whole 2018 year strictly on improving servers and stability in pvp. I really think that would be the best investment zos can do.

Crates are a success crown store is a success DLC are a success but when it comes down to strictly gameplay and stability this game is at about a 7/10 right now on a good day.

Which isnt horrible but imagine if this game had good servers and can hold its fps well in big fights. That would be a nice day.

Anybody else have any suggestions?

Everyone I know is taking a break from pvp until they fix the load screens and crashes it’s really bad

Yup, it's not even worth trying to play right now.

Xbox NA is, imo, utterly unplayable. For the past 2 days I literally haven't been able to load a character without crashing

SSD? Which version of the console? Every time I try to play since cwc it's a crash every hour on a good day and every load screen on a bad

Im on Xbox one x with just normal 1tb drive. Since i got xbox one x it has been slightly better in performance no lie. But load screens glitch has nothing to do with console i dont think i may just be getting lucky. Then again i am NOT using shrines in cyro. Riding horse everywhere lol

So they are coming back after? Why would they reward a company that continues to have the same problems over and over and negatively impact the part of the game they care about?

Do they realize then the message to zos is, this is okay, that players will come back?

Whats their incentive to fix anything?

Well i mean the incentive is they come back when its fixed. Im guessing they wont come back if it never gets fixed?

One day they will fix the issues in PVP.

99% of players on xbox EU are also taking a break from cyrodiil. Except certain EP players who exploit the situation. they are controlling the map, have their emperor crowned and own all of the elder scrolls since 11 days.

Eu? I think they are gonna allow transfer to na soon you better jump on soon as they do because i hear xbox Eu is dead pop

Probably because everyone's new Xbox One X has died after the first couple of days.

Betsararie

The game gets a solid 0/10 for performance, I don't think there's any geting around that. Certainly for console players.

PvP is still enjoyable even if it's cancerous, but would have to agree improving the servers is the best investment for ZOS to make to help longevity of the game.

I guarantee the majority of ESO players could care less if PvP died; you can count on that.
See, we can both throw out unfounded statements with nothing to back them up.

Sure.

Did you intend to guarantee that people could care less if PVP died, meaning that they do care if PVP dies?

Did you intend to guarantee that people couldn't care less if PVP died, meaning that they don't carel?

I suspect the latter, but sometimes people can trick you.

No pvp = no eso for me
PS4 EU was a ghost town before and now battlefront 2 is out, I can only imagine what it's like.

Personally I'm on BF2 for now because when I die I don't have to reset the whole game lol

100% its the performance, the game is at unacceptable levels right now. i have 5 IRL friends who used to play- 4 whom i bought the game for ! i really wanted to win others over- but theyve all left cos it simply dosent perform up to scratch of other games in todays market. And who can blame em- why play a game where you run into a zerg- the sound cuts out, the fps drops to 5, the pings are 300+ nothing responds - you die and start over. the game has always had issues of blanace- but the technical server issues have killed this game.
I felt about a year ago this game had the potential to be the biggest and best game in the world- the next WOW , with even a dota following with the potential for e-sports with battlegrounds, etc. but now? seriously who plays it ? on twitch there are like 200 viewers when rival MMOs have 10,000.

they F$#KED themselves - noone to blame but themselves for neglect and indifference and/or incompetence.
I am a subscriber, and have been for a year and a half , but im one of the stupid loyal ones i guess- but its players like me who are also running out of patience, i wont be renewing when its next up.

I seriously encourage everyone else to cancel their subsciptions and for us ALL to push ZOS to get it together- only if we act and show our displeausre- with out wallets- will they ever act

Heh glad to see someone else who knows the difference. However people often mix the former with the meaning of the latter.

The eu pop took a huge hit when Destiny 2 launched but they've all returned. PVP was great for the few days before CWC dropped the campaign reset and it was pop locked. Then we got zos'd so nobody is bothering except a bunch of ep pve'rs.

NewBlacksmurf

There are plenty of better game options for PvP. This game has been one of the most frustrating PvP experiences.

That and people only did it cause the dlc at launch made it popular for consoles. The PvE is worth playing through tho but otherwise, PvP has dropped long ago. You’ve prob just seen a lot of new ppl due to them joining the game but they’ve now left due to the frustration of trying to play this game.

Every week it’s some problem and every dlc update there are more new issues and prior issues still remaining.

Twohothardware

It's been equally bad on PS4. I get on later at night and a lot of the better players on AD and DC have quit till they fix these loading screens and so it's just been EP zergs with twice the numbers.

I was on Xbox NA last weekend though since I just got ESO over there with the Xbox One X and even with the loading screen issue Xbox NA had more bars than on PS4 NA. I actually saw 1 bar for each Alliance in Kyne on Xbox, there's almost never more than a single Alliance with a full bar on PS4 now.

Console players who never plan on getting a pc who want to play mmorpg and a atleast decent one to say

EvilAutoTech

I just got serious about Cyrodiil about a month ago. I had been working my different toons up through the ranks. CWC hits and I can only PVP during the middle of the day or the middle of the night. Not going to leave altogether but, man, it's hard not to be upset about this right now.
