As miserable as it has been fighting the Red Sea lately, you can't blame players for playing to win. Numbers win, so they play in large numbers.Eso community is so toxic anymore when blame is on ZOS for there *** game. Glad I chose to.move on from this game. Wish you all the best.
While I agree that the responsability for bad performances is on Zenimax's hand first, I believe that we can make it better as players if we adopt certain behaviors while playing and encourage others to do so.
For whatever reason, EP has taken it upon themselves to embrace the legacy of old-school CN and NPK and stack as many in one spot as possible. I sometimes (and by sometimes I mean nightly) see your crew, pact, haxus, all for a combined 50+ stack to push ales while you still have 3+ emp keeps. The reason we went to sej that night was because we couldn't stomach the zerg any more, and because for whatever reason I'm one of the unlucky few that crashes and can't get back into the game with numbers like that, and that doesn't really work when you're leading. The reason the sej fights were ok ping wise was because everyone was spread over an entire field and not all at one keep, and there wasn't an obscene amount of siege from pugs. We ran all the way across the map to avoid the red horde stacking ales-bleaks-chal, and even then, eventually they amassed at BRK to see what was going on at the sej corridor.
CN is done. There are 2 large guilds left on blue on TF, and we ran relatively small for most days over the past week. When the ping is that bad now, it's pretty much entirely because of red, and pretty much entirely because there's an active emp and people are funneled to objectives. So, you're right, we can make it better, and it starts with stopping the red horde from amassing as large as it has the past week or so.
Not sure when Jules' screenshot was taken, but 'last emp keep' has now translated to treating every keep in the ring that way in terms of numbers. It's one thing if you're down to 2 or 1 emp keeps, but when you have 5? It's disgusting, and the very thing people railed so hard against CN for doing.
Don't get me wrong man, the red guilds hate me probably as much as you guys do now. Yesterday I literally lost my patience and raged in chat against people zerging Aleswell. I'm so sick and tired of people balling up. Yes sometimes you will see me part of the masses, but trust me I try to avoid it as much as possible. Sometimes it just gets tiring to push an objective with 4 players when we get zerged down over and over. So we rejoin the masses to give us a break. And then it starts lagging like crazy so we go back to our side of the map to get zerged down again.
I've given up trying to convince EP guilds to spread out. I know Haxus or Invictus do efforts when they go over to Nikel or Brindle but I can't say the same for others.
People simply don't get it. I ask them to get off Aleswell and they say that if they do DC will keep pushing us to Bleakers and Chal and we will lose everything. They don't understand that if you send one group deeper in their territory, it will spread people out and we will get better fights in the end. But nope.. gotta follow the masses and the transit line tunnel visionning and then QQ about the lag.

Just three months ago this was a nightly occurrence.
Three months ago I could link any number of vids of 2 pact militia raids with your group embedded in the middle as well, so both sides were guilty.
Well no you couldn't, but go for it. Let's see it.
12 man haxus group stacking with 2 pact raids is the exact same as 24 man VE raid stacking with 2 CN raids because the total strength of the two zergs are the same. So Haxus needs to get off their high horse about this.
I don't normally comment on threads like this, and I'm not trying to offend anyone. But Im pretty sure you just said 12 members of Haxus are worth more than 24 members of VE, and then you told Haxus to get off their high horses. LET THE FORUM WARS BEGIN!
*grabs popcorn and waits*
Oh lord here we go...
You just had to, didn't you?

Disable bads who want to be farmed over and over, the noobs rolling in again and again are creating the lag, not the 12 man group.
Can't even remember when we last had 12 actually. RIP.
Oh come on man. we both know its not just your group. it starts with yours then grows with all the friendly pugs.
you can try to spin it all you like.
the funny thing is unless you are teying for emp who cares for AP? AP farmers are willingly creating lag.
Lets *** about lag and then go create it by concentrating players for our own personal gains.
then go create a post on the forums to get more players on NA EP. now look at lopsided it is. funny really.
there are some players a part of it now that i am frankly shocked how far the cancer has spread.
What the hell are you rambling on about?
I think he wants to disable fighting in Cyrodiil? Not sure...

@ZOS_BrianWheeler @ZOS_GinaBruno
I've done that several times, that's not the issue, the issue is how utterly disgusting this side of the game has been, and all I hear them say after a year and a half of this disgusting lag and gameplay is "it's our main focus" it should be your main focus as soon as this *** happens and affects players to the point they're paying for your product and can't play it for 3 major updates now.
I honestly don't bag your game, but honestly you guys really need to stop with the Roleplay major updates you're rolling out non stop and focus on a patch with your team and dedicate fixing these servers, the largest side of this game used to be PvP or AvA as you call it, but just from looking at the sheer number of guilds and players rapidly leaving is and should be worrying if it just blows over your heads as you just see them as numbers, they're not just numbers you have players like Fengrush, Sypher, Etaniel, King Richard and even Deltia who are major impacts of your game - just go on their youtube channels and check out their subscribers ( sorry for whoever I missed you are all heavy impacts on the outcome of this game, just remember that
)
Deltia - 77,565
Sypher - 42,648
Fengrush - 5,331
King Richard - 10,867
Combined (assuming they're all individual subscribers) that's a total of 136,411 people listening in on the game and most of the players who listen in take their feedback pretty well and start agreeing with the streamers.
What I'm basically getting at Zenimax, if you don't start fixing your game and not just saying "it's our main focus" when it clearly is not if you're pushing out half finished Imperial City DLC's and focusing on the Roleplay side of your game, I mean business wise sure that's a good idea to earn some money but you should be focusing on having players stay subscribed to your game, give them a reason to stick around, questing in an MMO gets boring real fast, there is no replayability in quests like there is in PvP if you want to keep a strong consumer base, sure I have little experience in this sort of stuff but this seems like common sense to me, and the more and more this lag is ignored the more players you lose than gain, especially when I a paying subscriber can not play one half of the *** game because it crashes on any enemy impact.
Sorry to call out Haxus and any other EP guild/player in here but this is all I have as *** PvP I can't even play it. This is what people are experiencing when large action happens, which you are promoting this god damn game to be, if it can't handle it, why is it so heavily promoted. (remember I am not attacking anyone personally, this is aimed at zos, please don't be offended, I have nothing against any of you)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLYz1r6K_HI
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_QSKmYq11c
And then we see documented changes which PROMOTE THIS LAG AND PLAY STYLE, you make meteor be unable to be reflected, you introduce Vicious Death, you INCREASE the damage of Proximity Detonation, and you promote this lag, have you watched any videos published online, honestly? Have you seen the lag that happens and how the game freezes when someone is using Vicious Death and kills a zerg? Check this video out, watch specifically the lag and frame rate from just 1 person using this. Now imagine a whole 200 or so players in this using meteor, proximity detonation etc
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuAPu3cA-Bs
So I'll end this little hate, I hope you read this and understand it is you that is failing your game and your broken promises, it is you that is going to destroy PvP unless you guys get your acts together and listen to the community for a change, stop promoting this lag, stop affecting consumers who pay and still subscribe to your game and can't even enter inside Cyrodill without jumping to 500 ping. You should feel ashamed that this has been going on for so long and that people are still sticking around, you have streamers that are a HUGE impact on your player base, lets just assume there are currently 700,000 active subscribers and that 136,411 of those people listen to what your streamers have to say, word gets around pretty quickly with those sort of numbers.
Not to mention but the dev feedback in here is shockingly low, it's as if nothing is being heard and it gets ignored. At least show us that you're listening. It is completely absurd that a thread like this http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/257543/important-update-zos-please-reconsider-your-decision-to-no-longer-make-female-light-armor/p1
Gets pushed to be on your red light list and major fixing ASAP, sure different departments I understand, but how fast this was replied to compared to something like AoE Caps per say.
I'm surprised at this point the patience some of the players have, it's the community we all have with each other that is keeping us here, I don't think people enjoy playing anymore. You really need to fix that
I don't mean for any harm or personal attacks within this post, I hope it somewhat makes an impact and I really do hope you actually put your main focus on fixing Cyrodill because almost 2 years is too much to have been waiting for this lag to end. Almost everything you guys say because a joke and a meme of some sort on the forums and you all encourage it, you guys participate and laugh at it too. It's a serious matter that is being laughed at. Please, I love the game and I want to play it for a few more years and I'd like to actually play Cyrodill once again.
Thanks ZOS, and just please do your jobs with this one, stop focusing so heavily on the non competitive PvE side of the game, look at your real issues, do you really want to show new players how unstable it is?

Nope. Sorry. Im done. I quit. Just love when people involved in AP farming complain about performance. When they cause a lot of stress concentrating players to make worthless AP.
AP farming was mever the issue and people have been doing it since day 1. It was and always will be the sh*t servers and ZOS's inability to change or fix them. I just love when people blame the player but not the game when it's painfully clear what's at fault.

Please, I love the game and I want to play it for a few more years and I'd like to actually play Cyrodill once again.
Thanks ZOS, and just please do your jobs with this one, stop focusing so heavily on the non competitive PvE side of the game, look at your real issues, do you really want to show new players how unstable it is?
Well said.

Fix your *** game, oceanic players can barely play it. This is an issue that you should feel ashamed for. I don't normally do hate posts but please, fix it already.

I've done that several times, that's not the issue, the issue is how utterly disgusting this side of the game has been, and all I hear them say after a year and a half of this disgusting lag and gameplay is "it's our main focus" it should be your main focus as soon as this *** happens and affects players to the point they're paying for your product and can't play it for 3 major updates now.
I honestly don't bag your game, but honestly you guys really need to stop with the Roleplay major updates you're rolling out non stop and focus on a patch with your team and dedicate fixing these servers, the largest side of this game used to be PvP or AvA as you call it, but just from looking at the sheer number of guilds and players rapidly leaving is and should be worrying if it just blows over your heads as you just see them as numbers, they're not just numbers you have players like Fengrush, Sypher, Etaniel, King Richard and even Deltia who are major impacts of your game - just go on their youtube channels and check out their subscribers ( sorry for whoever I missed you are all heavy impacts on the outcome of this game, just remember that )
Deltia - 77,565
Sypher - 42,648
Fengrush - 5,331
King Richard - 10,867
Combined (assuming they're all individual subscribers) that's a total of 136,411 people listening in on the game and most of the players who listen in take their feedback pretty well and start agreeing with the streamers.
What I'm basically getting at Zenimax, if you don't start fixing your game and not just saying "it's our main focus" when it clearly is not if you're pushing out half finished Imperial City DLC's and focusing on the Roleplay side of your game, I mean business wise sure that's a good idea to earn some money but you should be focusing on having players stay subscribed to your game, give them a reason to stick around, questing in an MMO gets boring real fast, there is no replayability in quests like there is in PvP if you want to keep a strong consumer base, sure I have little experience in this sort of stuff but this seems like common sense to me, and the more and more this lag is ignored the more players you lose than gain, especially when I a paying subscriber can not play one half of the *** game because it crashes on any enemy impact.
Sorry to call out Haxus and any other EP guild/player in here but this is all I have as *** PvP I can't even play it. This is what people are experiencing when large action happens, which you are promoting this god damn game to be, if it can't handle it, why is it so heavily promoted. (remember I am not attacking anyone personally, this is aimed at zos, please don't be offended, I have nothing against any of you)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLYz1r6K_HIhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_QSKmYq11c
And then we see documented changes which PROMOTE THIS LAG AND PLAY STYLE, you make meteor be unable to be reflected, you introduce Vicious Death, you INCREASE the damage of Proximity Detonation, and you promote this lag, have you watched any videos published online, honestly? Have you seen the lag that happens and how the game freezes when someone is using Vicious Death and kills a zerg? Check this video out, watch specifically the lag and frame rate from just 1 person using this. Now imagine a whole 200 or so players in this using meteor, proximity detonation etchttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuAPu3cA-Bs
So I'll end this little hate, I hope you read this and understand it is you that is failing your game and your broken promises, it is you that is going to destroy PvP unless you guys get your acts together and listen to the community for a change, stop promoting this lag, stop affecting consumers who pay and still subscribe to your game and can't even enter inside Cyrodill without jumping to 500 ping. You should feel ashamed that this has been going on for so long and that people are still sticking around, you have streamers that are a HUGE impact on your player base, lets just assume there are currently 700,000 active subscribers and that 136,411 of those people listen to what your streamers have to say, word gets around pretty quickly with those sort of numbers.
Not to mention but the dev feedback in here is shockingly low, it's as if nothing is being heard and it gets ignored. At least show us that you're listening. It is completely absurd that a thread like this http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/257543/important-update-zos-please-reconsider-your-decision-to-no-longer-make-female-light-armor/p1
Gets pushed to be on your red light list and major fixing ASAP, sure different departments I understand, but how fast this was replied to compared to something like AoE Caps per say.
I'm surprised at this point the patience some of the players have, it's the community we all have with each other that is keeping us here, I don't think people enjoy playing anymore. You really need to fix that

Who's complaining about how much others care about the game? I only spoke of the length of text written by one person. Indeed it was others who've blown my small remark about something into a major issue. If you cannot handle the opinion of others, you shouldn't be on the forums.

I'm surprised at this point the patience some of the players have, it's the community we all have with each other that is keeping us here, I don't think people enjoy playing anymore. You really need to fix that
I don't mean for any harm or personal attacks within this post, I hope it somewhat makes an impact and I really do hope you actually put your main focus on fixing Cyrodill because almost 2 years is too much to have been waiting for this lag to end. Almost everything you guys say because a joke and a meme of some sort on the forums and you all encourage it, you guys participate and laugh at it too. It's a serious matter that is being laughed at. Please, I love the game and I want to play it for a few more years and I'd like to actually play Cyrodill once again.
Thanks ZOS, and just please do your jobs with this one, stop focusing so heavily on the non competitive PvE side of the game, look at your real issues, do you really want to show new players how unstable it is?
Well said.
Did anyone actually read that essay?
I can only consume things in 140 character chunks. Could you live tweet this for me? :P0
