Thoughts in removing cyrodiil pvp?

russelmmendoza

Best idea ever or we really should just fix it.

Do we really need pvp in large scale.
Is bg enough for pvp in eso.

I'm of the opinion that Cyrodiil PvP should be fixed rather than removed if at all possible. Cyrodiil has long had its performance issues, but it does have unique features like PvP siege battles over forts and towns. It would be a shame to see all of that go.

I do want Cyrodiil to become a PvE zone at some point, but it needs a huge overhaul to be more dense in detail and more like Oblivion. Of course they could have two different versions of Cyrodiil warzone and PvE seperate.

Why in the hell would you remove something instead of attempting to fix it? That's not only lazy, but frankly insensitive to those who enjoy the sort of PVP Cyrodiil supports.

Battlegrounds and Cyrodiil are two very different forms of PVP. While Battlegrounds is a more visceral and raw take on PVP, where the emphasis is on the in-the-moment strategy and fights, Cyrodiil is a lot more political and strategic in the long term, where the emphasis is more on attacks and counter-attacks. Battlegrounds, you're fighting people. Cyrodiil, you're fighting people to distract them from another fight on another front.

Very different, and they each have their own audiences. Removing one is never an option without giving its audience an alternative.

Other games are doing it better and are far more stable... So guess zos wants you to spend your money in those games instead if you want pvp (or stability in general).

It needs some serious love, and if that means taking it down while it gets reworked , im game.
But cyrodill pvp needs to stay.

What if cyrodil was removed/ turned pve but they added a siege themed battlegrounds? Say 20 v 20 v 20 lag wouldn't be an issue as servers aren't trying to deal with cyrodil??

Since Cyrodiil still draws players into it this would be the worse idea ever (choosing an option the OP provided). There is no question about that. If BGs were enough then Cyrodiil would not fill up. That seems rather obvious.

I highly doubt they are removing it, but more so changing things up.

Battlegrounds are not half as entertaining as Cyrodiil. They are just there for quick AP and style farming.

Cyrodiil is where the adventure happens.

I think it would be a good idea to make a new open world PvP map entirely. A lot of the Cyrodiil map is unused and barren since most players all amass in the same places. The map is a also a bit outdated and is visually unimpressive unlike some of the later zones added to the game.

Zenimax now have some experience under their belts and if they choose to bring in a Cyrodiil 2.0 I think it would be a serious improvement over the current Cyrodiil.

I think all of this is unlikely however.

SomeDogsAreCops

AT first it was really cool and one of a kind, now 4 years later i think about what was sacrificed in the rest of the game to make it possible. I don't think it was worth it.

I agree

stuartx13

removing cyrodiil pvp NO remove cyrodiil pve.

My thought is :

It will literally never happen and anyone seriously suggesting otherwise is completely delusional.

OrdoHermetica

If large scale PvP is removed from the game, then I would probably stop playing. While I enjoy PvE quite a bit as well (I play both pretty equally), Cyrodiil's PvP is what continues to hold my interest long term. It's the game mode that keeps me going between content releases. If it was gone, I imagine one day I'd play through the latest DLC zone or whatever, 100% it, realize I had very little to do in-game outside of repeating the same dungeons and trials yet again for the next three months or so, and then go play something else... and just wind up never coming back.

I counter OP's question with another: how many would leave if Cyrodiil was removed? I for one would.

Thoughts on removing overland PvE, Didny think so

goldCoaster

There are over 20 PVE zones in ESO. And only 1 PVP zone: Cyrodiil

Don't like PVP? Then venture on over to the other 20+ zones.

Making Cyrodiil a PVE zone would be a mistake.

phairdon

Not a good idea. Regardless of what people feel toward pvp & Cyrodiil, removing pvp would alienate a lot of players. Would not be healthy for this game.

There's no such thing as Siege battles anymore. It's "Rush the front door with a Ram and Balista around it". And the only way to counter that is to bomb the Ram. No one ever Sieges the walls anymore.

"Let's just remove PvP"

Come again? I don't think this is even bait

shaielzafine

are you removing cyrodiil to replace it with another overland pvp or just removing so we dont have any overland pvp at all anymore lol

AlienatedGoat

Not okay with removing PvP Cyrodiil.

As much as I want to see a fully fleshed out PvE Cyrodiil, I wouldn't want it at the expense of the PvP experience.

ezio45

If cyro ever is removed im gone from this game permanently. I have done pve but my draw to this game from even 5 yrs ago was cyro.

If it was removed I loose all the reason I play eso

Beardimus

PvP is a fair chunk of players end game. They would be utter fools to remove it, and alienate a fair chunk of players.

Careful what you wish for, if they start shutting things down its the road to the end.

Battlegrounds are great n all but Cyrodiil has so much more. More variety of gameplay, more strategy, larger groups requiring a greater variety of builds such as support builds, etc...

I prefer Cyrodiil.

edges_endgame

Please remove this unnecessary thread. It is pointless and will only lead to “good PvErs vs bad PvPers“

Sick of it. There is both in this game. Deal with it and stop hating.

It'll never be removed nor will issues go away. PVP in Cyro will never gain any more traction regardless of events being held there. The issues will continue on and updates will be far and sparse as the population and interest will remain stale. The people playing now who haven't stopped at this point will not give up regardless of performance and have come to accept Cyro as it is. They will continue for another 5 years hopelessly wishing for better performance and changes knowing damn well it'll never happen. Change my mind ZOS.
