In my (NA) experience, the poulation and dominance goes something like...

1st - Ebonheart Pact, by a large margin 95% of the time.
2nd - Tie between DC and AD. Sometimes one is more active than the other... It shifts a lot.

Well if talking PS4 Scourge NA, I am sure glad we EP give the perception of having more players. lol
Sure wish we could find them when it comes time to take keeps!
Often we wonder where they are all hiding, in the sewers maybe?

Sounds more like PC NA. There is no way EP has 95% of the population on PS4...and it is PS4 the OP is asking about

Every time I hop into Scourge, EP and DC are pop locked.

All 3 alliances pretty much zerg on Scourge we can all agree on that to some lesser extent. DC usually has more organized numbers pushing south and EP is usually dis-organized with a few good quality groups in between. AD is mostly just pugs has been so for 2-4 months now.

With text chat on the horizon soon, we could very well see some shifts in communication. This means organization will be a lot easier, even if you are not grouped-- you can contribute to giving information on enemy intel and organizing an assult against a keep with another group. So if you haven't gotten a keyboard or a USB hub extender for your PS4, I would get one now. PC NA text chat is filled with a lot of good information about enemy locations, and troops will report when a fortress is under siege so reinforcements can arrive to defend before it flags. Text chat will be a invaluable tool for us who PvP regularly. And you bet your Septim's I'm gonna be using it a lot.

You can't go by the pop lock indicators, many times they show lock and very few players are to be found in the campain.
Many times PvE/PvP in IC causes this, should be separated. imho

PS4 DC and AD far out number us!

No they don't. EP > AD > DC as far as pop goes. DC just all resides in scourge.

Uh, we are talking about PS4 Scourge aren't we?

So population is DC>AD>EP if you actually are there every day.

If we're talking about NA Scourge PS4, it's DC >EP >AD. I've actually checked multiple times during primetime, when AD has its most members on lol, DC always has a large queue, EP has a decent queue and AD queue is so low I wonder why there even is one lol

Lately, overall population seems to be like:
-60% EP
-40% AD
-20% DC

There used to be more AD not too long ago.. but lately EP zergs are everywhere.

Just this past week, I played in: Chillrend, Skull of Corruption and Thornblade. All 3 were completely Red, except a handful of castle.

PS: if you are anti-zerg, your only hope at the moment is IC/Sewers... Hopefully your faction has a castle not too far from an entrance.

EP and AD have the largest population. EP is red, and everything is dragon themed with awesome motifs. AD is yellow, and everything is eagle themed with the worst looking motif of the three alliances.

Yeah red is acting like AD now, and it's annoying. I'm just going to PvE for a while next update as I wait for structured PvP to come out next year.

Amen to that, brother!

Welcome to ESO Louis! I can tell you what I know about NA Server at least.

There are 7 PvP Campaigns you can sign up for. 1 is a Home Campaign where your Alliance Points give you rewards, and another is a Guest Campaign that does not give you rewards for your APs gained. Home Campaigns cost AP to switch but Guest switching is free but has a 3-day cooldown.

Blackwater Blade, or BWB for short, is the lowbie campaign for anyone under Lv50. Champion Points are disabled and it is oft times filled up. DC tends to have the edge in BWB.

Scourge is the general campaign for Lv50 players and is the most occupied. I do not run this Campaign though so I cannot tell you much beyond CPs are enabled and all objectives earn points, hence it's a general campaign.

All other campaigns earn points for specific objectives related to PvP. Thornblade as I post this shows more AD than EP and DC, the former of which is at least 1/3 full and the rest less than 1/3. Chillrend is 1/3 AD and EP as I post this with DC less than 1/3. Skull of Corruption is EP and DC at 1/3 and AD less than 1/3, again as I post this. Haderus is my Guest Campaign and used to be controlled primarily by AD but EP moved in and it now goes back and forth between them. EP usually has control though.

Azura's Star is the Lv50 no-CP campaign of PS4 NA. However, it is normally pretty empty and controlled by AD.

If you have any further questions feel free to ask, and I hope this helps!

P.S. Ignore the toxic naysaying here. #toxicremedies

I am clearly older than you on ESO if you read my short introductory, I just purchased ESO on PS4 not as a general.
BUT you did give your insight on the matter so, I thank you

Fine, I will modify my greeting.

Welcome to ESO on Console Louis! Also I have veteracy regarding console players because I was there at the beginning on Console so there

PC Transfers that came at the beginning are my equal, not my elder
