    I'm not into PvP so I won't be disappointed for myself, but I'll feel for PvPers who have been waiting for improvements for a long time. I think the announcement will have something to do with battlegrounds, but I could be wrong.

    I'll be at the live stream to find out about the new companions and any other stuff that will be in the update. Then I'll be over here in the forums with popcorn. ;)

    There's no need to guess, it will be either a new map for BG or a new mode for BG, that's it. And it will be new content for us for the next 6-7 years

    That would be .................. dire. But I'm afraid you're right. Perhaps it is foolish to expect anything else. It is clear ZOS have not had people dedicated to open world PvP for a long time. If the question comes down from on high 'give us some PvP" it probably gets handled by the same team that designs dungeons, trials and arenas and they'll stick close to what they know.
    Please stop making requests for game features. ZOS have enough bad ideas as it is!

    Oh and hopefully this is the last batch of companions. We have too many already in my opinion.

    This is something I absolutely agree with. We can't have more than one active companion anyway.

    Amused.

    Either because I liked the new companions they presented and look forward to them (I don't care for PvP in ESO).
    Or because my negative predictions were right. Also: after-stream forum battle party.

    I expect nothing at this point and only hope it's not something that's going to make the game worse.

    Completely agree. Would probably be best if they just left things alone. There are already enough issues PvP-related which have not been fixed after all this time.

    I have no expectations at all, I'll be impressed if there's anything new added to pvp, and not just reworking existing gamemodes or slight skill change.

    I know it's been said to death already but the game has had no new pvp content for 6 years, so I can't say I'm hopeful if we've been neglected for over half a decade.

    ZOS already stated that the update is not Cyrodiil related. That's all I need to know to know that ZOS isn't focusing on the part of the game they should be focusing on more than any other.

    I DO hope pvp'ers get something they actually want.

    Not being interested in pvp myself, I expect to be disappointed and to move on to another game until next year unless there is something unexpected in the update to keep the rest of us playing.

    No, but they can be built to do different things, and those of us with multiple characters can have a different companion for different characters.

    I'm pretty sure the new "feature" will be disappointing, since I mostly play Cyrodiil, but I do see one possible silver lining. If the new feature turns out to become the favored form of PvP for hyper optimized groups, it might have a positive effect on the Cyrodiil experience. The power imbalance between factions with one or two of those groups and the ones without could be reduced by a lot, and I suspect the servers would be happy to run a couple of degrees cooler.

    I do hope the PvP crowd gets a performance update, though.
    If anyone here says: OH! But, PVP! I swear I'll ...

    Thank you for the valuable input and respectfully recommend to discuss that aspect of ESO on the PVP forum.

    All I hope for is some mention of the current state of play for PvP. The lag is terrible and there has been nothing of value added to cyro for many many years (adding stuff thats been in PvE for years.. like armor station is not "new content").

    Considering what we think they are going to release... I'm fairly certain I'll be let down.
    Will the real LadyGP please stand up.

    I don't feel any of the options describe my feelings about this exactly, but I just wanted to say that while I don't PvP and don't particularly care much about it for me, I really hope that this announcement is massive for the PvP community. I'd love to see them finally get some love from the Devs.

    Oh and hopefully this is the last batch of companions. We have too many already in my opinion.

    I appreciate this kind of comment. As someone who only plays this game for PvP (cyrodiil).... I'd been a rough 7 year stretch.
    Will the real LadyGP please stand up.

    i havent seen the stream (and to be honest i hate streams, i would prefer a simple article describing the items)

    if the update is BG related, if it can even resolve some of the issues with it then i might bother trying to do more BGs, right now i only play BGs sometimes on certain BG weekends so i can work on achievements

    I've already given up on anything good coming from this game.TBH I didn't know it was coming out now. It probably doesn't have anything good for me.

    Meh. Two team 4v4 and 8v8 BGs are a step in the right direction, but the return of power ups, multiple chaos balls with WW/Vamp transformations, “lives” for Deathmatch with spectating after you run out of lives… I’m just not really interested in that stuff. I’ll try the new BGs out, for sure, but I doubt this refresh will pull me away from Cyrodiil. At least the worst BG game mode, Capture the Relic, is gone from the new maps.

    Edit: MMR changes sound good, though.

    My expectations are so low I can't possibly be disappointed.

    "The update is all all Battlegrounds! Battleground!! Why would we do anything to Cyrodiil or do anything about HOT stacking or the tank meta?"

    Okay, I stand corrected.

    This is basically how I feel. Especially the lives situation, it sounds like an extra terrible idea.
