    And we'll look at the population of No-cP vs. CP to see about opening a No-CP campaign when the event is running.

    Thank you for the update.

    Appreciate the response.

    Why wait though? We did this last year and we know the beginning of the event has the highest demand and we know on day 1 at least one extra campaign will be needed.

    Good question. I am also surprised by the answer. Best to have one extra already there on Day One, if I were to offer an opinion.

    Brian mentioned last time on ESO Live performance updates are coming with Summerset because the DLC is coming. Probably why the dungeon DLC came in Feb too, wait and see I guess.

    howdy james...hope you're friday is moving along smoothly...

    you may be right...

    i don't really recall though hearing that, or, reading about anyone else here on the forums having the impression that there are any upcoming pvp focused dlc's...

    my impression has been that battlegrounds was, and, is our new content (new maps, gamemodes) that pvpers have gotten...which zos intends to use to "cover" new pvp content in eso for a few years period of time...

    I'd be surprised if there are any significant changes to the alliance war in the next year or so...

    maybe if anything - Brian and the team will make some changes to the imperial city...

    please, please, please give us direct access, take away the re-spawn t-bag timer and allow us to rez on any friendly district platform...

    also - bump the AP you receive from player kills while in IC...you've buffed cyrodiil and battlegrounds both within the last year...

    AP gains need to be increased in IC...

    I'll be honest though james - the whole time Brian was speaking, i found myself a bit distracted by his bright Orioles gear...

    go birds ;)

    hey mister wheeler - if you're out there - good luck against the rays this weekend, and, keep pushing for us please...

    I know there are limited resources at zos, and, pvpers make up a relatively small percentage of the player base - but, the alliance war is what helps make eso the unique game which it is...

    And we'll look at the population of No-cP vs. CP to see about opening a No-CP campaign when the event is running.

    Regardless of the midyear event, we need more campaigns(speaking of PC EU, but I presume it is about same across all platforms).
    At least 1 more of CP enabled 30 days campaign and 1 more CP enabled 7 days campaign.
    Currently the entire population is at Vivec and Sotha Sil, splitting it up will do good and encourage more fair action, instead of mega zergs like it is in the above campaigns.

    Also, please bring back CP enabled battlegrounds.
    NO CP battlegrounds is of no use, it is even less balanced than CP enabled, it is really not fun to play no CP.
    Some videos I recorded for fun: Main character:
    PC EU main: Universe - AD magicka Sorcerer, Former Emperor, Grand Overlord, The Merciless, Trial Bosses Solo Champion
    Top alts: Genius(stamina/sagicka Dragonknight) The Force(stamina Nightblade) and other chars.
    PC NA main: The Magic - AD magicka Sorcerer

    The last thing EU needs is more campaigns, theres barely enough fights on the main campaigns to keep it active let alone the sub campaigns.

    Before Xarxes and Kastav were brought into play during the mid-year mayhem event last year, Xbox NA had both CP campaigns in the hundreds for queue with Vivec approaching 1000 at some points. Please add more CP campaigns during the event.

    Edit: I guess I'm saying that the demand for the campaigns will be there. I promise you. I think it'll be better if you release the extra campaigns on the same day as the event. Will save a lot of time and grief. @ZOS_BrianWheeler

    Let's not forget that this year, they are making it so that Cyrodiil has double crafting resource nodes during the event as well... That means there will probably be people in que who have no desire to PvP.. they are just there for the double crafting mats. The ques are going to be there for sure.

    And what about the ap farming. Is that still a Bannable offense? Aka role-playing at "Sejanus" if so how long?

    Yep hope zos let us know how many get banned again

    Cyrodiil is the last place I would go for mat farming though. I went there to farm mats back when it was the only place I could get vet 15-16 mats and, well, Cyrodiil is huge. Like, you think the mat density is bad in Morrowind? In Cyrodiil it takes forever to find resource nodes. Even doubled, it'd be terribly inefficient to farm mats in Cyrodiil.

    Tons of people won't know that or won't think of that, though. Most players will just hear "double mats" and think about what it's like when they double the mats in Hew's Bane. And plenty of players will participate just so they don't feel like they missed out on an event.

    Disagree. If a platform has ques it should be reviewed individually. Ghost campaigns lead to AP boosting and Emp flipping.

    Xbox EU has the right amount now, but i think Sotha could be 7 day.

    As for BattleGrounds, they tried CP, gameplay was terrible with tanky builds and matches running full 15 minutes population shrunk as it didn't suit BG at all..

    When Mid-year Mayhem starts what I hope to see:
    • Vivec - 30 day CP campaign
    • Shor - 7 day CP campaign
    • Sotha Sil - 30 day Non-cp campaign
    • Kyne - 30 day Lv50 below Non-cp campaign (or is this a 7day? correct me if I am wrong)
    • Another 7 day CP campaign
    • Another 7 day CP campaign
    • Another 7 day Non-cp campaign

    If memory serves, we got Shor last year. Last year we only really had the 30 day CP, 30 day Non-cp, and Kyne. I also remember the campaign names changed to reflect the Morrowind Chapter, will they get their names rotated out for Summerset Chapter names?

    Almalexia was one of the 7 days non cp i remeber that name quiet well becasue i was the last Emperor on pc eu alamlexia, when it closed its gate.

    Lets ask the critical questions regarding this annual event shall we. @ZOS_GinaBruno please give us an update on this as soon as you can.

    Are additional servers going to be added for this event?
    Are we going to get free or reduced cost if we switch to one of the new campaigns?

    No one wants to just assume these things will happen and based on last year we know the que's have a huge potential of being long just to get in on the event.

    Not sure when the event is coming exactly, but there is a new Xbox achievement called "Midyear Maniac" that ends 7/31/18. So my guess is roughly the last week or two of the year.

    NA has many refugees from the EU server who are all seeking peaceful lives away from Sancts tyranny and dehumanization.

    The total conquest of EU by zerg squad has left many broken and homeless.
