Remove Muti-faction Campaign Access?
MrCal

It's clear and has been very clear that guilds have characters on different factions which is fine. What isn't fine is that these guilds can switch from one faction to another within the same day of the campaign. This causes them to pretty much zerg by day on one faction and zerg by night in another double teaming a sole faction, trading Emperor/Scrolls for the sole purpose of AP farming. This ruins the fun for most, to me and many others is considered cheating and is just plain out selfish and lame. It is an easy fix and can cause many players to stay which will in fact keep subscriptions up.
I'm not too sure why this issue hasn't been over looked into months ago but I believe it is time to look into this issue and fix it before the community decreases as it has been.
If Zenimax wont fix the exploits in stealing scrolls (Countless Reports by many already Submitted) then please at least look into this issue.

✭They enforced this mindset even more this last patch by allowing any character in any campaign. They literally removed the restriction of having characters in different alliances in the same campaign. Seems to me that means its ZOS approved. I whole heartily agree tho, its crap and way worse now in that regard than it ever has been. .Member of the Old GuardMother of the Byte FamilyVyle Byte||Ivana Byte||Vyible Byte||Hakate Vampler Former EMPRESS BWB||Haan Zolo {Retired} (He swung first)||Lunari ||Wardyn Chalyk Tahno||Dirti Dianah||Bonnie||

✭✭✭✭✭A better option would be to make actual fighting, controlling scrolls and taking resources/keeps worth more than farming players at the bridge. Then again, this would not be an issue if players were smarter and didn't allow themselves to be farmed.
I play AD mostly because that is where my highest vet pvp player is. There are times when AD is just stupid and brain dead and let themselves be farmed like potatoes over and over by DC or EP or both. It gets boring just watching them run in, die, run back, die, etc, etc. Ive tried to tell them, they dont listen and I just get frustrated because nothing gets accomplished due to the potato mentality.
I really like to be loyal to one but nights like that, l want the option to switch to my other characters and go to a side that has more of a brain and actually gets something accomplished. Otherwise I might as well log out.Edited by Katahdin on April 11, 2016 6:20PMBeta tester November 20131 -

✭✭✭✭They explained why this restriction was removed. It wasnt actually accomplishing anything. With cell phones, email, texting, live streaming, multiple accounts. Anyone that intended to spy on one Faction for another would do so regardless of the restriction.Penniless Sellsword CompanyCaptain Paramount - Jorrhaq VhentKorith Eaglecry * Enrerion Aedihle * Laerinel Rhaev * Caius Berilius * Seylina Ithvala * H'Vak the GrimjawlTenarei Rhaev * Dazsh Ro Khar * Yynril Rothvani * Bathes-In-Coin * Anaelle Faerniil * Azjani Ma'LesAban Shahid Bakr * Kheshna gra-Gharbuk * Gallisten Bondurant * Etain Maquier * Atsu Kalame * Faulpia SeverinusWhat is better, to be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort? - Paarthurnax0 -

The grass isn't really greener. Plenty of DC and EP let themselves be farmed by AD. It's one thing if it's a big, long battle with forward camps and you are all having fun even if the other side is getting more AP... but seriously, at some point does it occur to people they shouldn't run back from the keep and go back in the tower again?

Aye, spying will happen either way. We all understand theres no way around that but the fact that guilds can switch factions in the same campaign from 1 minute to the next is sort of an issue. I dont know too much about Zos approving this but ive heard about it and honestly dont understand why they would.0 -
the fact that players cna have different factions in the same campaign is absurd and begging for abuse.1 -

How is it more absurd than before? People were doing it before the unlock anyway. Easy to do with group porting.
I have 2 accounts and 2 conputers. I could have 2 different characters in two different factions in the same campaign any time I wanted. In fact, I did have two on at once when a gate was open that I needed on my other account.
For example, I had my AD on a my 1st account watching the AD gate so I knew when it was clear for my EP on my 2nd account to go through and get the skyshard.Beta tester November 20130 -

Not everyone has two accounts or two computers, also you cant fight both simultaneously so again, im talking about guilds/large grps in general..
He also didnt mention anything about before, he was speaking in general I think lol.0 -
Eshelmen✭✭✭✭✭It amazes me the amount of effort groups of players will go through to get this done... when in reality, they could have used that same amount of effort and coordination to assist/help their main faction.Edited by Eshelmen on April 11, 2016 11:23PMPC and PS4 EP only player1
