    Uhh its basically the only thing they covered this last pts cycle, and articles, and dev livestreams.

    Imagine claiming to be a pvp player and complaining that they are trying to fix pvp.

    For a PVP player you sure didn’t pay attention to the announcements huh? It’s ok. Cyro is crazy fun with the testing ZOS is doing.

    Dude they literally have a news section on the elder scrolls online website. You are getting upset that you didn't read any form of media and then surprised when you didn't know the news.
    - it was covered by every pvp eso content creator including zos themselves several times
    - it was on TESO website
    - It was the only thing on pts

    Again silly to complain about the most important pvp event/release that has happened in a decade.

    I don’t understand why you’re angry? Or sarcastic? It’s a test. That’s all. They want to make Cyro better for players. Don’t you want to help with that?

    Sounds like someone misses their RoA and VD proc sets

    Yes this has been discussed for months...all the info is out there...

    Enjoy something new for a week, is what I'd suggest.
    3 GOs, a Warlord, and bunches of prefects etc-- all classes...I've wasted a lot of time in PVP

    Yes the information has been out there for a long time and is common knowledge among everyone I play with in ESO PVP. You're getting mad at the developer because you choose not to pay attention to what is going on with the game.

    I mean ZOS often do something which they don't previously mention, but this time it's on you.

    Even if they did give us warning, replacing all campaigns with this watered down garbage is a Richard Relocation.

    lol I think the only people really complaining about this test are the players that that have become so use to absuing their broken builds not being able to Troll anymore. It was so good seeing no 1 v 10s fighting it out for 15 minutes or a single NB taking out entire groups.....

    “Broken Builds” like every major PvP player doesn’t post their exact build on YouTube. Better yet every single person is running rallying cry and 1 of like 3 front bar sets. The floor hitting the ceiling in a 10 year MMO is super toxic.

    ofc and a single NB can take out full grp because this is his job...but as i can see u probably don't understand what we're playing and why they're putting on all these very nice sets...

    I beg to differ. This template only version is not going to cut it. People will be done with it within a week, even those that say they love it now. No diversity and no skill gap possible for the most part so what's the point? As it is now someone who's never created a build or played PvP are just as strong as those of us who have over 20k hours into the game.

    Now it's zerg v. zerg with no single player having any ability to make a difference in the fight. Only the size of your zerg matters now. This is not good in any way.

    Agree with OP this should have been optional. Agree with respondents that many warnings were given. ZOS had to make it mandatory because this mode is so unappealing that they wouldn't have had enough players to load test the servers unless they made it the only option. The only people celebrating this are the ones that have wanted pure death match for 10 years while IC sat empty and BG queues were long because most people don't actually want that.

    You say it is unappealing, but vengeance has nearly 5x the population that the previous several MyM events had. I would say it was certainly not "unappealing" especially since they are hitting 250 que with 5x the pop midweek every day.

    People want one thing in a combat focused game......good combat. Live pvp has too much "accessibility" where player input means so little compared to what sets, procs, and effects you slot, with the kicker that on top of that all the bloat that is complained about is now proven to be lagging the server.

    This 💯 @ZOS_MattFiror this is the best decision y'all have ever made in the history of ESO, it's so much fun to play than the live version of Cyro 😍

    I’m still surprised one would be mad about a 1-week test campaign that is solely for gathering data on Cyrodiil. Heck, they even gave us incentives to join with double AP/XP and an easy Golden Pursuit. It’s exactly ONE week. Yall will be okay.

    Those who have played ESO for a long time remember the multiple weeks of similar tests and their outcomes, that's why they are frustrated. Some people just don't like it (I suspect the OP is one of those).

    nah the OP was just a rage bait for uninformed players. Whether intentional or not.

    So, in the same sentence you say... "No skill gap possible" and "someone who's never created a build or played PvP are just as strong as those of us who have over 20k hours into the game" so it isn't about skill and the understanding of what abilities do and more about running what is broken :) eso doesn't have a skill gap, it has a gear gap, there are things that work and setups that don't.

    Turn Greyhost and Blackreach back on, if those campaigns are dead and everyone is in Vengeance lemming Cyrodiil then that's what the people want. Until then, my point is 100% valid.

    We have Imperial City: No siege, great open areas to fight in, and no players. We have battlegrounds: fast re-spawns, tight objective based gameplay in closed quarters - and 15 minute queues.

    What you want is quake champions, and there is already a game for that. Easy answer here is enable both modes and see what people gravitate towards.
