Cyrodiil & non-gated Imperial City

While I am not looking to start a debate on what's right or wrong regarding gated or non-gated access to the Imperial City, it concerns me how the population in Cyrodiil might be affected. Thoughts?

What incentive will there be to PVP and take part in the Alliance War in Cyrodiil? How will this affect the Cyrodiil zone? And how will it affect Imperial City?

Note that I have not played on the PTS, so I might have missed something.

    Was really looking forward to the whole gated access thing. Especially if it revolved around home keeps not just ring keeps. The amount of amazing fights that could have been created would have been great. But alas, the qqers have won again

    Ahh yes, I forget, there will be some people in Cyrodiil at least. Although when a 24 man zerg shows up to enter, they are gonna get in. Also, once you are in, there is little reason to leave, except maybe to respec, level Legerdemain, or farm flowers in CH. But it's not like people are gonna be coming and going constantly.

    I remember reading somewhere, (no I don't have the link to it), that you could port directly into 2 of the group dungeons from anywhere. Once there you simply walk out the dungeon door and you're in IC. Entry into Cryodiil isn't needed to get into IC.

    @starlizard70ub17_ESO Exiting those dungeons ports you out of Cyrodil, not in IC. (Tested it on the pts 2 weeks ago)
