Every campaign always full, huge ass wait times to get in, I'm talking hours? Is this how the pvp is on this game? You have to join a campaign and sit in a rediculous queue? I can't just go to cyrodil when I want? If so epic fail, only mmo I've played where I can't jump into pvp whenever I want
I'm on Xbox btw

    ZoS probably didn't expect the influx on PvP-ers on the consoles :tongue:

    Here in PC-land, we don't really have such issues, as there is always one campaign where it isn't full for your alliance and you can just join without waiting. They'll eventually open more campaigns for consoles though. The current number of campaigns works fine with the PC-PvP playerbase.

    This one hails from far Singapore, excuse this one for his high pings. He also apologizes for any formatting/spelling errors, as he tends to answer using a mobile device.

    Insanity is the price of Knowledge. Herma-Mora and Sheogorath, this one bows before thee.

    This one does not advocate for any class to be nerfed. There are far deeper underlying issues then a simple "Class Imbalance". The Champion System is the problem. Not classes.

    Heh. I know you. :tongue:

    I'll go dig up my kill counter stats when I get home (I'm currently out of the house) and if it isn't too late when I get back. I tend to be out of the house for the whole day and only get home at 2300hrs. :disappointed:

    Nice to see you all the same though. I normally play solo or with Kris (Who has mentioned you multiple times to me).

    Nah I'd imagine you don't wish they were so full you couldn't participate

    Well, to be brutally honest, we rather have full campaigns then having to choose between empty campaigns and one that has blobs spamming AoE running over anyone that isn't spamming those AoE. Namely Steel Tornado, Impulse, Caltrops, Purge, Meteor, Arrow Spray, Dawnbreaker, Bats. Add in all the Jesus beams spamming and 15k+ fragments and snipes... Well...

    Still, if you are really good, you can fight these blobs and snipers either solo or in a small group, but yes, the emphasis is on "Really good".

    Sounds like pvp sucks as the game gets old, can you still find 1v1 stragglers or is same old crap always?

    It's about how you look, and where you look. I play solo pretty much 90% of the time, and I have no issues whatsoever finding small scale (1v1s are rare as heck outside duel settings, there are dueling guilds out there, join one) PvP. It's just about how persistent you are in finding it.

    There are "hotspots" and "transit lanes" in Cyrodiil, so you have to learn the map beforehand. Once you do though, finding small scale fights will be easy. May I recommend reading my guides? They are designed to help fresh recruits to Cyrodiil. The links are in my signature.
