Right now, on a Saturday night, typical nerd video game night, on the NA megaserver, only Wabbajack is locked across the board. So that represents around 2-3k players. There are two other Cyrodiil shards with 3 bars and only 1 faction has three bars or locked in each of those. The other factions in those two Cyrodiils are at 1 bar. I can imagine the facerolling that must be going on in those.
The other 7 Cyrodiil shards are at 1 bar for all three factions. On a Saturday night.
Too back they locked that thread from the guy who unsubbed. It's about was much constructive crtiicism as you'll probably read from a typical disappointed player. Along the line of this thread, there should have been a token BG or some intentionally small scale pvp available at launch. This is 2014, not 2004.
I think they would have seen how popular BG-type pvp was with the launch day player. Now that they are dropping out, Cyrodiil is only going to be home to the ones currently happy.
