So PC has had this for a bit, what's the biggest things that changed for PC players that Console can now expect, concerning Cyrodiil?

    Everyone was talking about "hey new zaan/caluurion meta is coming" and in the end, meh – they're rarely seen in Cyro, at least in Sotha.
    The real biggest things that changed (IMO) – there are a lot more bomblades, ball groups now use Proxy (I think they used it before, but now every single person in ball cast it).

    Lag and lots of AOEs. You never had Miats, so you don't have to deal with the influx of snipers on PC, but expect plenty of bombers with the removal of AOE caps.

    Well we had a lovely weapon swap delay bug for the original dlc patch... hopefully they fixed that at least before submitting the patch.

    Play some BGs, I'm sure you'll think otherwise. Everyone and their mother runs proc sets in BGs now, it's worse than when they were running viper.

    Agree. I haven't seen that many proc sets. A lot of resource poisons in BGs though.

    Another reason why I'd love for server transfers to become a thing...

    It's actually been a lot more fun. I guess it may be because Miat's addon was gutted a bit on PC, but Cyrodiil in general just runs better. I guess the server isn't having to calculate the aoe damage reduction anymore.

    I don't think much will change though I am not looking forward to the immovable pot and 7th legion changes. Makes my build less effective.

    Nope! The beauty of ZOS and Xbox/Microsoft is that when there are bugs in the initial release we have to wait because there is a lead time with Microsoft approval before patches get released. This way we get to enjoy all the screwups until a new patch can get pushed through.....

    Looking forward to weapon swap and medicinal use issues YAY!!!!!!

    Only change I’m looking forward to is no aoe caps for open world , makes me actually want to run a 2-4 man rather than running around on the other side of the map by myself. No cp bgs aren't bad either.

    Im on Xbox and I have noticed loading screens are much longer and there are so many audio issues. The UI for the outfit system is absolutely ugly and terrible.

    Synergies are much cooler in pvp now. It was a pleasant surprise.

    yeah, those ball zergs can cleanse while spamming shields now.

    I'm having a blast.

    If we look at the positives, synergies are actually buffed.

    OP was asking about Cyro - I gave him my opinion about Cyro c: Dont know about BGs, I havent visited it yet.

    Update is downloading now but I've been in Shor (PS4 NA) for the last 3-4 weeks and cannot get over the amount of bombing going in. Every time I die in a keep fight I'll see Eye of the storm followed by Vicious Death in my death recap.

    I can only predict this will be worse with the removal of AOE damage restrictions.
