New outposts coming to Cyro in Murkmire patch as well as bridges being destroyable:)
Cyrodiil Crumbles
Arriving as part of the free Update 20 base-game patch, the shape of the Alliance War in Cyrodiil will undergo a dramatic change with the inclusion of fully destructible bridges and Milegates. Just as you might bring the walls of an enemy keep crumbling down under the withering hail of your siege weapons, you can now completely destroy Cyrodiil’s many bridges and Milegates, potentially blocking off (or certainly delaying) an enemy advance.

✭✭✭✭Lunar Quay goat bridge is going to become the new Alesia bridge. Ironic that a heavily-fortified masonry bridge that can now be demolished with siege is being replaced by a very ramshackle wooden bridge that can't be demolished with siege.

Well to be fair, 4+ years of sieging a bridge has now weakened its structural integrity, its bound to collapse at any moment26 -

✭✭✭✭✭we haven't had too many changes over the last 4 years or so to the cyrodiil environment...
glad to see zos putting some effort in to that zone..
even after a few years of fighting in cyrodiil, there are still some spots on the map where I've never done battle...
those new outposts are definitely welcomed...
I wish they would have added flags to cheydinhal and chorrol...
it'll be interesting to see how the changes affect gameplay - particularly on some of the lower populated (which is almost all except for kyne and vivec) maps...
you would think this would promote more small scale and less zerging...
I imagine zos is hoping to address some performance issues with having too many players in close proximity to one another...Edited by geonsocal on September 13, 2018 4:58PMPVP Campaigns Section: Playstation NA and EU (Gray Host) - This Must be the Place4 -

Thank you for the clarification. While I worry about a lack of incentive to repair bridges, infinite AP is worse by far.7 -

scipionumatia✭✭✭✭this will be interesting. i expect to see permanently destroyed bridges but who knows, if the whole bridge is destroyed and perhaps if the river was widened to make it so players cant simply leap across it or swim through without gettin ate. building up bridges may become a part of strategy as would knocking them down.
In other games im all for destructible environments, and here i am too just curious as to what motivation would be to repair the bridges.Scipio Numantia Red guard Nightblade PvP- AD

Yeah the main Alessia bridge you don't even need to dismount to do an underside crossing. They miiiiight want to rework the geometry of that area. Or just leave it in as a skill check idk. It's unbalanced, but it's cool, so I can't decide.Men'Do PC NA AD Khajiit

This is definitely making bridges more essential for travel.
It wouldn't have made any sense if one can just skip them.

Do we get a special achievement for that? Slaughtered in Cyrodiil?
