ALL PVP MODES BROKEN!

Cyrodiil -- Incredible lag, choppy graphics, and 4 sec latency to fire off skills. Large scale pvp is dead.

Battlegrounds -- 30 minute queues for just one game is way too long to play just one match. Small scale pvp is dead.

Imperial City -- The place is absolutely empty. No one to fight except for npcs. PVP/PVE hybrid game mode is dead.

Dueling -- Fun but 1v1 gets repetitive.

All game modes are unplayable and that doesn't even address gameplay and class imbalances.

In my view, PVP is ESO's end game. Can't hold my attention much longer if there's no outlet for me to draw blood...

    Not sure what platform you are on, but Xbox NA has been instant queues for battlegrounds all week and random times of the day (many of which were non primetime).

    That's YOUR view, but honestly PvP isn't the 'end game' in ESO for the majority of players.

    Agreed that it is one of the end game. You have to have good gear, skillz, and leveled.

    That being said, still don't know why people bother with Cyrodiil at all anymore.

    heres what they need to do:

    Cyrodiil -- fix lag. then don't care as the Game of Thrones fanboys will zerg the map anyway lol. Or delete and turn it into a PVE area already (Rigert wants the war over with and to seduce snooty elves!)

    Battlegrounds -- fix mmr, new maps, one flag mode with one random spawned flag, delete deathmatch sigil, delete relic.

    Imperial City -- bring back instant respawn to districts and separate que and remove the evil doors. 1day and 7 day campagns with their own rewards. Up the Tel var on the upper boss NPCs, and let the players have 12v12v12 with a boss.

    Dueling -- add ability to create 4v4v4 battles in open world via dueling arenas. have 12 friends join a group, then enter the arena location (via door). teams are randomly generated and you fight in that arena only.

    That's it.

    edit:
    lock BGs to solo que only. premades should use IC or dueling to get their OP kicks :P

    I really wish battlegrounds had objective-based gameplay (scenario-based) where one team is the defender and the other the attacker. Give it some actual themes other than the team deathmatch or team deathmatch with a huttball.

    except for Vivec at prime hours in a full fight field, where else is lag? i don't have other than in those cases. Graphics are fine, i even have a few as desktop wallpapers. Large scale pvp is what keeps Cryodill alive and crawling.

    never had a queue longer than two minutes. They may be difficult if you dare to play what you like, but far from dead.

    actually, dueling is the worst pvp gameplay. You either are top meta and fight against what you counter, or it's useless.

    balance is very damaged indeed, gameplay is very unfair. I also agree PVP is true endgame, players are the most difficult foes, top that with the game's balance and playstyle.

    ESO doesn't have end game. It has a wide variety of content everyone can participate in.
    Some requiring more specific builds than others.

    fix for cyrodil lag: get a better pc (your 5 yr old toaster wont do good)
    bg queue fix: dont queue at 5am doing it in prime time fix the issue
    imp city: same as above, dont go at 5 am or you will find nobody
    dueling: ??? your problem if you get bored

    go play wow or gw2 if you cant "draw blood" kek

    if you thinkg eso end game is pvp you are in the wrong game, there are a plethora of games for pvp tryharders, have fun.

    Cyrodiil needs performance fixes, but I still enjoy it.

    I'm leveling a stam sorc through BGs on PC/NA and I haven't had to wait more than a minute for my daily random BG.

    IC, yeah, every time I think about farming tel var there I think about having to ride from Chalman and just walk away and do something else. Pity I can't queue directly there.

    BGs could be simply divided into premades
    1. team v team
    2. team v team v team (current)
    3. Solo queue

    Get rid of this MMR as it is only hurting the game, and I would have a low MMR compared to many of the more hard core pvpers, I am willing to suffer with that as it is how you get better, in the end. Or simply have MMR be a deciding factor on who is put on what team (to avoid high MMR stacking on one team and low MMR on the others).

    Either I am confused by your statement or you are confused? If you are talking about using them they can be used in BGs. If you are talking about earning them you will earn them (unlock them and level them) far faster in Battlegrounds.

    I always fish in Cyrodiil. It's nice and peaceful; a random zerg strolls by or a ganker...

    I'll probably go into BGs during Midyear Mayhem though to finish the remaining achievements.
