"We will not be adding in the previously discussed PvP component of the Justice System."

ThatNeonZebraAgain✭✭✭✭✭I dunno man... I think this news has greater implications than "no PVP in justice system". It means the justice system will remain unfinished. Whoever has hoped for a more complex gaming environment from ESO can just hang up their hopes now. ESO won't be getting deeper... ZOS is focused on DLC now and not game enhancements.
Yep, this is the real news about the game's future.Edited by ThatNeonZebraAgain on January 12, 2016 6:43PMGore-of-the-Forest Argonian Nightblade

✭✭✭Jup, exactly this. The Justice System was ESO's attempt to add something dynamic, sandboxy to an otherwise pretty cut-and-dry themepark experience. With that gone, what is supposed to replace that niche? There is absolutely nothing on the horizon in terms of game mechanics. All we get is DLC content à la Orsinium, which I like a lot, but is not enough to keep this game thriving.
I'm desperately hoping that there's gameplay improvements coming to the justice system with the next two DLCs, I agree that the current system feels unfinished.
If the thieves guild is just more stealth-and-pick-locks then I will be greatly disappointed.@wayfarerx - PC / North America / Aldmeri Dominion4 -

✭✭✭✭This is the aftermath of the B2P/F2P switch. Instead of adding more depth to the core game, they need to rely on DLC and the cash store.
"A game with meaningful and consistent content — one packed with hundreds of hours of gameplay that can be experienced right away and one that will be supported with premium customer support. Charging a flat monthly (or subscription) fee means that we will offer players the game we set out to make, and the one that fans want to play. Going with any other model meant that we would have to make sacrifices and changes we weren't willing to make."

I really don't. Perhaps in the future you will get a truly opt in PvP zone as they broaden Tamriel but I have had little faith in the PvP portion of the justice system since the beginning.TheBonesXXX wrote: »

..I.. never thought I would dislike PvErs so much, but you guys get a kick out of it.
I will advocate for a lag free Cyrodil, improved imperial city with PvP objectives and all the while I will disagree with anyone who wants a PvE Cyrodil. But a PvP crime system? In PvE land? Only if they can do it right.
But they can barely handle their own PvP zone (lag, class balance, IC griefing) so I don't want it expanding into PvE land so soon. Especially since I don't think they can adequetly prepare and or respond to the guaranteed griefing, exploiting, harassment and trolling that will undoubtedly result from bringing in the two vastly different play styles.8 -

That was just one example. What about:- gathering provisioning mats or motifs

@Gidorick the idea of the 2nd part of justice system was for open world PvP which would have allowed murdering other players. It would have allowed end game players such as VR14 or VR16 players to grief and troll lower level players by killing them over and over again. That's that problem.
Especially since if you don't have enough to pay the bounty and you get killed you don't loose your bounty this feature will lead to endless wayshrine camping and ganking of those low levels just for LOLs.PS4 NA

All this stuff would seriously affect new players coming into the game, and not in a good way. I just don't think there's a way to make this work without an entirely separate PvP server.
You can gather mats in other ways and motifs are not part of any quest.... and there are other non-stealing receptacles these can be found in.
You don't HAVE to level Legerdemain... this would be part of that "choice" players would have to make.
The camping issue has been discussed in other threads... I'm not going into those that would want to opt out of this system (what we are discussing here) wouldn't have to worry about these issues.
So.... players need to show some restraint while in towns? oh divines forbid!!! Maybe then players would learn not to spam in town, which would be a GOOD thing, IMO.
Don't get me wrong, there's a part of me that wanted to see the whole enforcer thing happen, but let's be serious. ZOS has not historically been the best at balancing the PvE / PvP dynamic. If they went through with this we would likely be looking at months where every major city in the game turned into an IC-like gank fests while the bugs and toggles were all worked out.
I hope the PvP team spends time fixing Cyrodiil, adding objectives to IC and getting the arenas / dueling implemented.
I think the outright "No, we're not doing this" is the knife twist. If the message were "we're going to fix cyrodiil before we get back to Justice System PVP" that would be one thing, but that's not what they said. They said it's just not coming. They've given up on it.
There are just too many things that are not being added to ESO because ZOS isn't up to the challenge of adding them in an effective way, and the list just keeps growing.

Tamanous✭✭✭✭✭Lack of vision and conforming to the masses waters down yet another mmo. Let's be truthful to ourselves though ... we all knew the game already suffered from this and only clung to hope that things would change.
Some indie developer will have the balls to make a truly immersive mmorpg game world but we'll of course have to live with graphics from 10 years ago. Can't say I even care anymore.
I can't level another toon in ESO because of the painful 1-50 experience of linear progression, chasing lore books and skyshards and ZOS refusing to open up more scaling zones. Vet zones turn out to still be easy mode as I solo most everything other than group dungeons. I can't wait for more Orsinium scaling zones in order to fix these issues (which wouldn't as I'd still be forced to chase down skyshards and lorebooks).
I am not seeing the open and immersive world I though could have been created and these changes do not appear to change this enough at this point to keep me here. A million $$$ would at least keep my sub up. lol5 -

Currently does not prevent you from stealing things that are just sitting around, not in containers. This is just one of many issues that would have to be addressed.
Justice PvP would have been cool, but I don't think they can pull it off. Maybe someday we'll get a zone with this sort of gameplay enabled. At least that would be something ZOS can sell.@wayfarerx - PC / North America / Aldmeri Dominion3 -

I'm in 100% agreement with @Gidorick here. If they made the guards killable it would be completely fair, and a lot more believable. I never understood how all the town guard was tougher than Molag Bal, much less a dungeon boss or even a bandit chief. I realize for the sake of resources it would be hard for guards to blow a whistle and call in their friends... but that's what the pvp side of things would do for players. If people can escape other people in Cyrodiil, I don't see why you can't just run away in the Justice system.

Kwivur✭✭✭✭The way the justice system is designed, committing crimes is almost a necessity (and actually is a necessity to complete some quests). Presumably, the Thieves Guild and Dark Brotherhood DLCs will involve committing a LOT of crimes.
Some people just really hate PvP. Those people shouldn't have to limit their gold-making options, avoid certain quests, and be locked out of entire DLCs because what should be a completed unrelated "justice system" got stupidly incorporated into PvP.
This was by far the smartest decision they could have made.
Then play a game that doesn't have PvP..0 -

✭There really was no good way of implementing it. Many people have already pointed out why "not committing any crime if you don't want to PvP" would be a completely non-viable option.
I then saw people that say, "They could have just made it so you are only flagged as attackable by PvP enforcers if your bounty got too high!"
That still wouldn't really work. There's always going to be a large number of players that want to be able to commit petty crimes (intentionally or accidentally) but don't want to deal with getting instantly zerg ganked by the enforcers. If they made the bounty "PvP threshold" level too low, and it could be easily reached, that would obviously be bad.
If they made the threshold sufficiently high such that you could only hit it if you were obviously knowingly doing it, the only people that would let their bounties get that high would be the people that really wanted to fight the PvP enforcers, which would be an incredibly small portion of the PvE playerbase (i.e. only the other PvP players that wanted to play the "bad guys"), and the PvP enforcers would get bored. Don't beleive me?
It's ultimately the same thing as PvE players wanting their own version of Cyrodiil, or TV stone farmers that don't want to get ganked by other players in IC. Everyone is opposed to those things because the vast majority of PvP in this game is based on the strong PvP players preying on the weaker PvE ones. By giving the PvE players that don't really want to PvP a way to accomplish those things without the threat of other players, there would be far fewer players participating in PvP.
tl;dr
Not giving players a way to "opt out" of justice system PvP (other than "don't steal") is non-viable. And implementing the enforcer system in a way that allows players to easily choose whether they can be attacked by PvP players or not would be equally as bad as giving PvE players a PvP -free version of Cryodiil. It would kill the vast majority of PvP.
Also:
I could just as easily tell you to go play CoD if all you care about is PvP.Then play a game that doesn't have PvP.
But that would be an equally worthless suggestion.

PvP community gets screwed again.
As a PVPer, I would think you would want to test your skills against other PVPers, people who build their characters for that and practice their skills against other players.
The justice system would not seem to represent that player base at all. It is a lot more likely you would be fighting PVE-specced players who never PVP'd, forgot to manage their settings, or otherwise stumbled into your path.
That sounds more like someone who is looking to grief or otherwise ruin another player's day instead of engaging in challenging PVP content.
I wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt and not generalize, but then I read your signature. You seem to be proud of ruining the experience of others.
I would be willing to bet real money that a lot of the "PVP Community" has better things to do than to kill players who offer no challenge.
The only way that you could say you are actually looking for a challenge and not easy pickings is if you think large quantities of PVPers will flock to the PVE zones, start to steal things, then run around in the open world looking for challenges. That seems to be a really inefficient way of getting the open world PVP you can get right now.
I don't think you need to look much farther than IC and all of the ladder and entrance camping that goes on to see just some of the headaches adding PVP to the justice system would bring about.11 -

✭They could've pulled this off. Dying doesn't matter in this game anyway, who cares if you are level 10 and you do a quest that makes you a criminal and then you get jacked up and, oh no, teleported to a nearby wayshrine with your crime gone. The enforcer earns a bounty that cost the criminal nothing but 30 seconds of their life, and who knows maybe the two parties chat about the experience and form a friendship or a rivalry or a lifelong quest for revenge. That **** is fun. Maybe a PvE player branches out and tries PvP when they otherwise would have completed the single player content and moved onto a new game. Back in the old MUD days there was a good chance your character would get deleted when you died, it's not like you have to worry about that. It's such a big world, it'd be so fun to add the competitive aspect and all the roleplaying possibilities of real player interaction to all of it.5
