ESO Plus Prioirity Queueing Suggestion

Combz · June 2016

So just a quick suggestion about the load times of the more popular campaigns such as Haderus. Me and my buddy do not get to play all that often together due to our conflicting work schedules but when we do we like to dive into the PvP content. Thing is it's not just something you log in and enter, the queue time today was 150, 30 minutes in we are down to 98, i believe that ESO Plus members should get priority in all queues throughout the game.

TL:DR ESO Plus members should get priority in all queues throughout the game (PvP and PvE)

We've said it before and we'll say it again: No.

Heads would roll.

I can hear pitchforks being sharpened.

Yeah, I could see the conflict, going to put the whole we put more money into the game then the F2Ps do.

But, if this is a suggestion that has been mentioned numerous times before, what about splitting the queues for the Imperial City (Where the majority of players go now) and the battlefield. Because the queue time is calling for all player who want to enter Cyrodil in general not accounting the players who can't even get into the sewers.

Not sure how to edit if that is even possible... but a simple fix would just to add a straight queue to the sewers and a queue for the battlefield.

There's no such thing a "F2P" players. Everyone paid for the base game and DLC one way or the other.
There's no proof that crown players contributed less to the game financially than ESO+ players. Sure, they pay less if they pay strictly for DLC, but they can also buy cosmetic stuff and end up paying more.
You don't have the data to make such an assumption.

That is why I also suggested to split the queue times as well for players who are wanting to go into the Sewers or City, and those that just want to Siege.

This sounds simple but it is likely to not be that simple. It is related to game mechanics (IC and Cyro must remain interconnected) and server architecture... and it would "dilute" the population.
It's like the suggestion to add more campaigns to reduce queuing times : the true issue is that everyone wants to enter a campaign with many players to fight against or to group up with, but nobody wants to wait to enter.

As an ESO Plus subscriber: No.

Also, if you are going to IC to PvE, shouldn't you be picking a less populated campaign?

DaveMoeDee · June 2016

Absurd idea.

NewBlacksmurf · June 2016

This would be a terrible idea. Sorry, but no thanks

Too much elitism in that suggestion. Sorry.

rootimus · June 2016

I'm indifferent, but don't most MMOs do something like this? I know SWTOR does.

Im an eso sub and Id say: No!

Thats not fair to those who cant or dont want to pay monthly.

khele23eb17_ESO · June 2016

Id say sure - the queues dont work anyway. And if someone goes for ESO+ to get faster queue times I have a few bridges and other property around the country to sell them.
