Don't understand some reasoning in this thread. Who cares how you got your CP? If you have more than most players, it's an imbalance. A seasonal cap is no solution, but better than what we have now and it might make the game a bit more enjoyable while it is dieing anyway.

well, 1. It's all the players that are baffled you earned more CP than them that accuse us of grinding to get our CP. I personally don't care if I run into the 3 guys in the game that actually have 1K cp and grinded to get it, but for some reason, even though it's such a small percent of effected players, everyone that is sub 300 wants those ahead of them punished and thinks no one could have gotten ahead of them without 'grinding' - the same mentality that makes them think every loss they have in a fight is b/c they don't have enough CP.

and 2. Because if you did get past the cap already as I am by just playing the game (I still have a life, I don't play 8 hours a day, 7 days a week, etc) then something feels wrong about the cap. Caps like that should be to stop grinders and the like from getting way far ahead, not to punish players that just happened to get that many points playing the game normally.

Wasn't everyone pre 1.6 PvPing at max level at V10, V12, and V14? Won't everyone now again PvP at max level with 500 CP?

What is the problem here? I ASKED!!!! WTF IS THE ISSUE HERE!?

I was on the verge of quitting due to lack of progression/content in november early december last year. I´ve played minimal amounts of time and only picked flowers/dueled until the release of 1.6 which finally introduced longterm progression to eso.

Now they want to cap that at an amount that i´ve reached with normally playing (pvping) the game over a month ago.

I´m looking at months of no character progression of any form again. The result is: When this goes live i´m not going to continue to play the game.

Pretty much this.

I actually *Did* quit the game for 3 months at the end of 1.5 because the game was stale and boring (and laggy). PvP hadn't changed in a year and I'd already done everything. I was Emperor for almost a month and had my fill of every aspect of PvP. I came back for 1.6 because it brought a fundamental change to the game. No softcaps and the CP system. I've always loved the concept of CPs....but I hated the implementation of them. There are many ways out there they could have headed the current issue of CPs off at the pass but they chose to address the problem too late. So now we're dealing with yet another ZoS bandaid.

I'm not going to say whether or not I'll quit, because I always try and test something before I pass judgement but it's really not looking good. I'd say the probability is extremely high since I'll be at CP cap by launch I'll play the content for a week until Starcraft II and Fallout 4 comes out and then play the hell out of those until I'm bored. Whether or not I come back will highly depend on ZoS's future changes but if you've ever played an MMO seriously you know that the addiction is the primary reason that people keep playing them. Taking a long break is the easiest way to break that addiction, and if the game itself has nothing to draw you back you don't come back.

Maybe I'm selfish or dumb or whatever you want, but I like playing for a reward. The reward used to be AP, with which you could buy actual useful gear, or camps, anything meaningful. I also played PvP ttrying to become Emperor to get those former emp passives, and also alliance war ranks.

MMOS are the only games where my /played reaches months because I know the time spent will benefit me later. Other games I just play to enjoy the content, and I usually don't spend more than 100 hours on them.

Here they are taking out all the rewards, they are taking out progression, and are leaving us with very little content.
