FIVE New Cyrodiil Campaigns!?

Ixtyr · March 2016

Okay, so Axe of Belharza has been removed, but they added Celarus, Chrysamere, Auriel's Bow, Bloodthorn, and Bow of Shadows back?

We lack the population to fill up THREE campaigns, let alone eight plus Blackwater Blade. What's the reasoning behind this? It currently just seems like a thinly-veiled attempt to force Cyrodiil to be deserted to 'address' the lag issue...

Seems like it's not intended. Kinda like they reverted back to the start. I was just starting to like Axe too.

That would be my guess. Next step is to cap the population at 75 people per alliance to force people to spread to different campaigns.

I asume this is NA? ON EU we usualy always fill up all our 5 30 day campigns

Matt said just couple week back, ESO isnt MMO, maybe the idea is to reduce the Campaign Population. Id love to see it happening, I personally think Cyrodil Map is much better at 2 pop bar per Alliance instead of 3, for example, when you're playing with full population, theres 10 guy in inside of each other shooting etc.

Yes, North America.

Axe was intended, I saw that in the Patch Notes, but none of these other campaigns have been mentioned in the Notes.

It definitely isn't a mistake, since the scoring of all of these campaigns have been adjusted to be in line with newer campaign scoring systems. It's not some odd, unintended rollback.

Let's not exaggerate, the other ones than Azura have a sizable population maybe 2 hours a day in prime time and even then they're usually not locked.

And are removing 5, so there's going to be no net increase in campaigns.

Thanks for the clarification!

Reduce Campaign Pop or add Collision Detection, thats what I gotta say and this game is thousand time better. Collision Detection would be quite unique, I only know Darkfall what uses it, so no doubt would bring tons of PR and people to the game.

Weberda · March 2016

Whew. For a minute there I thought the people at ZOS had totally lost it. I do know some old time PvP'rs tho that miss Auriel's Bow. They may go there just for the sake of nostalgia.

@ZOS_GinaBruno

Will Trueflame and Azura's Star have their scores reset? They haven't been reset yet, and still show 21-23 days left.

Oh, good thing I did a forum search after I saw the expanded list. It was like being back at PC launch, but without Skullcrusher or Wabba...

AshTal · March 2016

Its how they will fix the lag, reduce the populations and then we can spend the whole time looking for people to fight not lagging like crazy.

I've seen some pretty weird patch stuff being unintentionally put into MMOs before, but this is a bit of a record. A very large mistake, no?
