Dear Zenimax, the state of Cyrodiil campaign is critical. Apart from 2-3 hours primetime, at best, the faction imbalance across all servers EU side is so bad it is not challenging and absolutely not fun playing unless you want to farm ap by capping empty keeps. Mind you this is no qq thread about one faction. It goes to all factions. I log in mornings, map is one colour. I log off. Doesnt matter if its my colour or not, I log of, because its dead, no pvp. I log off in the late evenings/night. Same situation, different colour. I used to be able to play 24/7 more or less 1-1,5 years ago, without this total faction domination, now I can only find more or less ok fights at primetime. Bars show the problem. One faction poplocked, or 3 bars, the other factions 1 bar. I dont play this game to be entertained or to stay in lakes 2 hours per day, and I dont think you are happy with the situation, but the right now, right here state of cyrodiil is BAD Zenimax. Its really BAD, and you MUST do something to change it. Maybe just remove all together the scoring system and come up with something new. Maybe allocate players/groups randomly to factions to make it more even, I dont know, and its not my job to figure it out, its YOU not the players who must VERY SOON find a solution. I dont think I even have to explain why its so crap at the moment, most players, apart from as mentioned before, the pvd ap farmers, are not happy with the situation. Then theres the prime time zergs.

    The best way to fix Cyrodiil is to raise the number of PVPers.

    The only way thats going to happen is if ZOS fixes the lag and persistent performance issues.

    State of Cyrodiil: it's bad.

    But since there is little money (Spread that out Final Fantasy Tactics style) for them to be milked out of PvP players it will continue to be left to rot.

    Fixing Cyrodiil would require an entirely new engine.

    What campaign are you on? PS4 NA Vivec is always well-populated. There tends to be more AD on in the morning (for whatever reason, we have more retirees and shift workers than other alliances), but it evens out by mid/late-day, and there are usually three bars for all alliances during prime time.

    I would hate random faction assignments, as I’m loyal to AD. Try a different campaign if you can’t find fights on your current campaign, or run BGs.

    I am talking about cyrodiil PC EU. Think I mentioned EU in the original text. Campaign doesnt matter, as each one is totally dominated by each faction. Vivec is ad, Sotha is ep, Shor is DC. Same *** status on all 3. Either you pve or you play something else outside the few hours from around 20-23 when its somewhat even. At this point I suggest remove the whole campaign score system. Dont reward people for pve'ing in pvp lakes.

    1 campaign.

    30 day locked into one alliance per account.

    Population caps vis-a-vis = if there are 90 ad, then only 100 blue, and 100 red allowed on. sort of like a q that only allows a balance.
    "The red pill and its opposite, the blue pill, are a popular cultural meme, a metaphor representing the choice between:

    Knowledge, freedom, uncertainty and the brutal truths of reality (red pill)
    Security, happiness, beauty, and the blissful ignorance of illusion (blue pill)"

    Insight to Agree to Awesome Ratio = 1:6.04:2.76 as of 1/25/2019

    Compared to people that I've ignored = I am 18% more insightful, 20% less agreeable, and 88% more awesome.
