Would a pay to play server work for improving pvp performance?

What if ZOS dedicated cyrodil access of a megaserver to only those who had a subscription and or those who buy access time with crowns? Thus Separating the player base. Would that help alleviate congestion? Could the extra proceeds go to improving performance?

No, and we shouldn't have to pay for that. We deserve better than what we're being given.

Players don't want to be separated, or the 7 day/alternate camps wouldn't have a history of being underpopulated until the last one is the ghost town it is today. If players wanted to separate, they wouldn't be stacked 3 factions deep at a keep for lulz despite 3 second bar swaps and health desyncs.

Clearly a lot of people want large scale battles, and the game design rewards it. It just fails to deliver the performance.

The base code is broken and bad, hence broken exploits every patch i.e dual weild infused procs, necro bash. Been that way since the original dev's left. Bad code with too many calculations including cp and proc sets means troubles forever. They will have to either rebuild code, or do away with cp and delete alot of stuff. By the sounds of next patch set of nerfs, they seem to be trying to eliminate some calculations at least. Kinda like just taking doors off resources because the cant fix it lol.

My dream has always been for ZOS to spin off AvA as F2P PVP game with its own small dev team.

I think AvA is a poor fit with the rest of the game. I believe most performance issues could be solved at a gameplay level; this can't happen now because of the PVE side of the game.

Unfortunately, Zenimax is risk-adverse and just wants to milk this IP.

No, never. Is not what i bought. And i Will never put an euro in this game again until classic bugs get fixed and lag returns to a level of "playable". I still didnt buy last 3 dlcs for that, and i won't do dont matter what they promise
