It's Been 3 Years Since we had a PvP DLC

Urvoth

Nice necro, but yeah we need another PvP DLC.

I’ll settle for Cyrodiil fixes

Edit: also separate IC from Cyro...

idk

Zos just added BGs last year and has added more matches this year.

With that and IC being a solid failure it’s unlikely Zos will add a new PvP zone. They cannot even figure out how to drive interest in IC. Making a new PvP zone seems to be a terrible idea.

I can agree with this.

BGs are probably going to be the defactor pvp updates for some time (mostly because I think they can add a map or two each update faster than they can fix the cyro lag). And I would venture a guess that 12person content seems to be the sweet spot in order to reduce lag by a large amount, so thats probably the incentive for why they are adding more maps/rewards to BGs instead of Cyro.

IC however needs a nice little update. separate que, faster rezes, more rewards via tel var, etc will go a LONG way to making IC better. It could have it's own leaderboard too, with end rewards, more areas to access in buildings, and maybe remove the damn doors!

With PvE you are playing against the content. PvE depends on repeated content and new content.

PvP you are playing agains other players. Changes come when the players adapt so no need for new content. In fact new content could dilute the PvP community causing more harm than good.

There might be a few changes that can be made from time to time changing the dynamics of PvP some but new content isn't the way to do it.

Though I mainly PvP I must agree with this gentleman...

We have Cyrodiil, IC, BGs and Dueling and that's more than enough. How about fixing those and adding new stuff to those instead?

...and this one is absolutely right! QFE.

They also added new furniture with Wolfhunter. Does that make it a housing DLC @idk ?

Hardly relevant to the comment you quoted.

King_Thelon

You equated BG maps to a PvP DLC. I asked you if you'd also equate new furniture to a housing DLC. The relevance should be painfully obvious friend.

Incorrect. The comment was very relevant. You may wish to consult a dictionary prior to posting.

Thanks for the thought but still incorrect.

Not only did the person edit what he quoted for convenience, he is also suggesting adding a few designs is equivalent to adding the BG system which is laughable.

Hardly defendable. Seriously misrepresentation which is why it’s irrelevant.

He said DLC...learn to read..

You know exactly what he meant. Quit diverting. Just because 'Chapters' aren't labeled as 'DLC' doesn't mean it's content suddenly doesn't count. There are BG's, dueling, Imperial City, and Cyrodiil. All four of those things come with their own modes, objectives and playstyles. There is literally nothing more to be had for PVP other than tweaks and improvements. The only way to get a new PVP experience from ESO at this point is to find another game entirely. It's already all here.

The original poster clearly stated the subject of the post was regarding a PVP DLC

When you and @starkerealm deliberately misrepresent a post (aka lie) in order to make the original poster look stupid you are being dishonest and disrespectful to the OP.

Quit trying to twist the subject of the post into something that was not stated.

Thank you

Tired of not enough PVP content? Feel free to move to a PVP game, the same advise you would give to someone complaining there was too much PVP content in a game.

Only when numbers start to drop will they look at the causes, also, my PVE will not get nerfed thanks to the rock/paper/scissors approach to classes/specs in PVP.

Let's eliminate the Kyne and Sotha Sil campaigns and start from there.

We should be consolidating PVP, not spreading it out further.

PvP doesn't need endless content, look at LoL it became the most popular online game in the world with most people playing the same mode and even the same map in most cases.

ESO has duels, battlegrounds, Cyrodil and IC, that is more than enough, what ESO PvP actually needs is the PvP content to be working well, which for the most part it isn't, in numerous ways from lag to balance to bad design of the content itself and so on, adding yet more badly designed, poorly functioning PvP content won't save PvP in this game, instead fix what the game currently has.

I guess battlegrounds didn't happen....

olsborg

What I would love. Was a huge area like cyrodiil. But no keeps or things to capture. But an area to explore, harvest and reap benefits from. Be it a wandering boss or a t-map or a random event in some dungeon. Full of everything , but notably pvp. Free for all (or the same factions) whatever would be possible. But somewhere there is pve,gathering,hunting and lots of pvp.

Your comparison is so absurd I thought it would be obvious why it was t relevant.

I’ll put things into terms you might understand. BGs are clearly several times more significant than the last and only PvP DLC. 6 months into IC it was a ghost town. Over a year into ask the only reason anyone has to wait for action is the new queueing changes.

Thats basically a slam dunk against your comparison. Have fun with those furnishing designs.

coop500 wrote: »

OP compares Zos adding BGs to the game to The handful of furnishing designs added with this week’s DLC. @Mattock_Romulus seems to agree though I think he just likes to try to tell people they are wrong even when they are right.

Apparently the he biggest thing to happen to PvP in ESO since the launch of the game is insignificant to him.

Edit: spelling correction.

They are working on completely redesigning Cyrodiil... The war is coming to an end!!

And this is one reason why we don't necro threads, because we have to correct outdated info!

When Morrowind came out, it included the PVP content Battlegrounds. A year later, ZOS made Battlegrounds free base game content for everyone including existing accounts that didnt own the Chapter.

So the Morrowind Chapter was the last, new PVP content that players paid for, with all new maps and BG modes being free upgrades.


Can we let this thread rest in peace, now?

Yes, it came out as part of a PVE chapter, not as a stand alone PVP dlc.

Dang Noodle....that made me literally LOL

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face.
They livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise), bring your alibis
Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said, 'we are all just prisoners here, of our own device'
And in the master's chambers,
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives,
But they just can't kill the beast
Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
'Relax' said the night man,
'We are programmed to receive.
You can check out any time you like,
But you can never leave!'

This is a Necro. But one thing is for sure, this man has been white knighting since the dawn of time.

They would probably be better served by improving performance and redesigning the existing PvP content to make it more popular instead of adding new stuff at this point. But I did enjoy the poem.
