This weekend can we get as many people as possible to poplock AZ?

I know lag persists on the other complains, but I would still like to see that overload on the no-cp server.

Let's test how much the CP calculations affect server communication.

    Until we're all outfitted in VD, it's farm mode all night long. Objectives don't mean diddly until we're geared.

    And even when we are geared, we'll be sitting at breaches inside keeps defending, and those will hardly be good, even fights for the poor souls that get obliterated by the silly damage numbers and siege this meta has.

    If I have to cast anything besides 1 ability its far too much work, I'll just keep zerging.

    If there is actually an all faction AZ event I'd bring VE over to stress test for a few hours. Would like confirmation from multiple guilds before I take the night off AP grinding to go over there though.

    I've heard its dead, why would we bring a raid to a dead server? I know its hard to believe but we really don't have any interest in chasing down 1 or 2 people with24, well save for a select few...

    Bring a 30v30v30at a keep for an hour or two.
    This will tell those of us to stop criticizing about the CP system from a performance standpoint and give ESO its death card.

    I'd do it if I could gather the numbers but I can't.

    I got white castle too.

    AZ actually did have some good fights tonight. There were 2 bar pops in all factions for a few hours, and then 3 AD and 2 DC right now. The combat felt nice too... We had our dueling night there tonight, and honestly...it felt nicer than with CP enabled. Keep an eye on populations, and then hop over there sometime when there are people to fight and try it out.

    999 ping lag? Or 300 ping lag?

    I didn't reach the 999+ because it was not entirely locked,
    I remember 1 or 2 fractions locked and it was unplayable (like srsly unplayable/ like i cant critrush anyone or weaponswap and that when it wasnt even fully locked)

    At that certain moment i realised for myself that the cp is not causing the lag first place or at least it doesn't help deactivating them.

    On the other hand i dont know if the server first asks for cp and then calculates em out... i think zenimax is capable for everything when it comes to bad programing.

    does it really have to be locked to have fun and test out how fights are? every faction 3 bar, aldmeri propably nearest being pop locked. and big battles here and there, not just farm fest.

    To test if CP has an impact on lag, yes it does have to be locked.

    azura> pop locked on all factions, minor lagg, each faction has some sort of group going + ebons and covenants have both raid going but server continues being pleasant to fight at. Major conflict involving all factions aswell at ash and at roebeck.

    ping 180-300

    There was a time when 30 vs 30 wasn't considered a big battle.

    Why would cp make an impact on lag? We had lag well before cp.

    Brian Wheeler used to say that the diversity of sets etc. made the lag, so thats actually aswell what cp is.
    Every single cp point spent is a thing that the server has to calculate out on each hit or whatever you do.

    I mean someone of them even said the animation might cause issues and in the same breathe they put new supershiny glowy animations into the game or change the Templar heal ult so bubbles fly to the targets etc.
    Thats exactly doing what causes the lag from their perspective (even if it wouldn't)

    Its because pve doesn't lag and that's where u can see that they give a **** about pvp.

    I'm sorry but the pve in this game is lame a** s***.
