Small scale is not likely, not with low turn out on interest threads where we can't capture more than 200 votes for it. Keep in mind that housing got higher numbers with less solicitation (replies like this) and when ZOS agreed to add them it was estimated 2 years out.

Yeah Console Chat Box threads got far more turn out then that and we all know how ZOS has responded to that. Thats right. Crickets.

Same with some of the champion point system protests. They won't always go with every idea that has a lot of support, but rarely do anything on something that doesn't have enough hype.

I respect your opinions but you've got to admit that if we don't talk about it there's no chance for us to be listening to !

not saying to stop, tis good to have dialogs to discuss this, just that the audience you need to address/convince is the community.

its like taking a keep in Cyrodiil, going in one by one won't work, we need a zergball rush on some posts to get any ground.

I agree Hero, but we've begged and begged time and time again to no avail.

I am.
But I'm dying for my MMO PvP fix and ESO doesn't have it. I like AvA but its crap that small groups have no place due to AOE craps.

The more important thing in this PvP arena in my opinion is that it would add to the game a content which can be "streamed", watched, and would attract a looooooooooooooooooooooooot of people to the game.

^This.
I'm not a harcore pvp player, but I like the idea of pvp arena. I used to think it wasn't implemented because it will show the class disbalance... But now we have a solo arena that shows it anyway.

It's funny, the two reasons I've seen people claim against creating a PVP arena is that it would highlight class imbalance, and that it would draw attention away from Cyrodiil. Then ZOS introduced IC and MSA and now I have no idea why they are against incorporating a PVP arena.

The only arguments people ever make against structured (battleground / arena) style pvp is: It takes players away from cyrodiil!!! Which isn't an argument at all really, because the players leaving cyrodiil for structured pvp clearly find structured to be more fun and engaging. This argument is just selfish, basically wishing everyone likes the same thing you like!

More options to suit more people will always be a good thing, and adding battlegrounds/arenas won't take tons of players away from cyrodiil. Lowbies/noobs will still want to run around in a zerg assaulting keeps, and gankers/maxed out players will still want to go out and own those noobs.

The only possible downside is if they did add BGs, that the rewards were so much better than cyro that players did feel forced to run them. But that problem is obviously easy to solve: don't make BG rewards super good.

I'd be fine with just battlegrounds. Arenas would require to much balance with all the QQ, even more than now (and i play a DK lol). MOBA styled battlegrounds would be ok but, give me straight up pvp first please!
