We Need Faction Locks in BGs Too

DisgracefulMind

Hello, I identify as a loyal Pit Daemon team player for the Pact, and it greatly offends me that I can't be fully immersed in that identity; therefore, I suggest we faction AND team lock within BGs. That way, for no actual valid reason other than I want people to play how I want to play, we can divide the player base up even more. Also, I don't care about other time zones, we need to redefine ALL forms of PvP in Elsweyr, and that's why we need to be completely separated from each other even though we already have a small PvP community - let's make it smaller!

If you choose to be a Stormlord then you should always be locked into being a Stormlord on your account, but also you can only play with other Stormlord players that are of your faction.

ZoS encouraged us to mix together in One Tamriel, but that doesn't matter anymore, so we should go all the way! Only Pit Daemon EP players with Pit Daemon EP players, we hate Pit Daemon AD players (for no actual reason other than some sense of loyalty in a video game) and don't want to be around them ever.

In fact, let's also divide the PvE zones back up too, it totally ruins my playstyle that I have to stand in Deshaan with AD and DC players. Like, there is no reason those traitorspaihackingcheating scum should be allowed in my glorious EP zone.

Thank you.

yes THANK YOU!!!! I am a Fire Drake I want to stay an FD on my whole account always end of story.

I am so sick of team Storm Demon and team Pit Lord lords EVERY TIME vs Fire Drake. they are always cheaters and spais who come onto FD team (because... ofc no LOCK) and when i go into cloak they jump and down on top of me to reveal my location. i can't shoot off a single snipe before they get me.

I WANT A FACTION LOCK !!! I am so sick of the trolls. I want to win for the glory fo the Fire Drakes! not SL or PD, god i hate those guys i swear they have exploits.

Ya I don't want to be a loyal Pit Daemon Pact member and be around those filthy Pit Daemon Covenant members either, they're just spais and hackers. PDEP FO LAIF

Seeing a DC player on my stormlords team as a loyal AD player makes me want to unsubscribe and stop buying crowns. It makes me want to spend time with my children instead.

Being on the wrong team is an affront to mah dignity! *puffs out chest*

I always lose when I'm not a Storm Lord. I swear its on purpose!

Brothers and sisters,

I cannot let this happen.
I've returned to address this issue that is dear to all of us with more than 6 friends on our friends lists.

In a world filled with diverse PvP build setups and cheese addicts, the lactose intolerant must find a way to move on. BUT NOT WITH THIS INJUSTICE. I can no longer sit idly by while this HEINOUS misstep of Cyrodiilic justice IGNORES our most basic rights as true BG separatists. WE WILL NOT BE MARGINALIZED. We will not be silent as the blood of the pact flows pure around the fields of the CHALAMO. We will not hold pause while unblemished ALDMERI bananas are peeled from their sniping roosts. We will NOT cling to passivity whilst the chalice of the COVENANT is filled with the unadulterated warrior's blood of the ORC, BRETON AND REDGUARD. Our faction is our home, our battleground pit is our sanctuary, our preferred WRIT CRAFTING TABLE LOCATIONS ARE OFF TOPIC. Give us all the locks on our immersion that the ghost of Paul Sage desired, or give us the freedom to affiliate with our enemies as One Tamriel intended.

You have brought a tear to my eye, my friend. Truly you are the most eloquent of us all.

No we need locks EVERYWHERE. I want to be a loyal Pit Daemon Pact player, why can't I?

I give the OP a 2 out of 10. You need to step up your QQ or troll better.

There is already a lock in BG's... you can't swap teams half way through the match. Only difference is Cyrodiil the matches last 30 days instead of 20 minutes.

No, we want to be LOYAL team members. I get disgusted when I get placed on any team but Pit Daemon. #BGSEPARATISTS

Nono, what's needed are fully unlocked BGs!

So if you don't like the team you're assigned to, you can change mid-match if that's what happens to suit you. This would be permitted regardless of score and the number of players on other teams.

It's truly not fair that when a player loses their cool with the pleb teammates the rng gods cursed him with, they can't just switch to another team and kill them.

C'mon ZOS, this is supposed to be play how you want!

Soft locked BGs seem a fair compromise. We can play with other Pit Daemon as long as they're Pit Daemon and that's it, you can't be friends with Stormlords and Fire Drakes though, One Tamriel is a thing of the past! The future is now. Segregating PvPers is exactly the future for such a small community.

Do you even play though?

ChandraNalaar

You guys don't understand! Faction locking is going to be amazing! People can't swap to the underdog faction anymore to help create good fights and a healthy campaign, which means more folks will simply log off and do something else. When enough people log off, the server won't lag as much! This is all just a really clever fix to reduce lag in Cyro. *heavy sarcasm* @bikerangelo you, sir, have won the best comment award today.

Elong

I wish @bikerangelo was my real Dad.

NirnStorm

I agree very much! As someone who was forced to play with storm lords pretending to be friendly fire drakes just to report my location and help their true alliance to take me down, nothing would please me as much as BG team lock.
Who cares about any player who likes playing whatever team, THERE MAY BE SPIES AND I REFUSE TO PLAY WITH THEM.

P.S. I love you @bikerangelo

Agreed, this is the perfect solution to all our woes.

I agree. I don't want any AD or DC on my team in BGs (or at least , didn't want them when I played them). This change would make sense.

Kaiz

Getting into a BG as an AD doesn’t feel right when your team mates don’t enter stealth and spam snipe with you.

Leandor

All of your petty attempts at defining the true faction lock is, quite honestly speaking, weak, and reinforces my demands.

There is only one true faction and that faction is me. Only me, I say! Lock out all others from everything and make Tamriel finally as it was intended from start: MINE.

But I've already made friends with stormlords and fire drakes and pit daemons cause 1 Tamriel, let me switch mid fight when my team is rolling the others so I can single handedly even the fight and balance the score.
