Xbox One EU PvP population

xxVARLEYxx · September 2017

A little concerned as to the 3 bars total PvP (1 for each alliance) we have been getting over the last fortnight!

Maybe it's the game i thought, Na server has around 15-20 bars PvP!

(Can we have our characters transferred please? there is only about 30 of us!

)

^ i know this has been asked and rejected but surely someone must see the data that nobody is left here!!

I feel sad i have all my costumes, mounts, titles, skins, cosmetics, dyes, traits researched etc.. with the only option to rot on a now dead server

Ppl not PvP in Xbox1 EU server ? Or the population is low

FloppyTouch · September 2017

That's really sad. XB NA seems to be doing very well even with that new shooter mmo kind of game out. Always active in pvp and pve. Be great if there was a way to transfer people from eu to na and not loose all ur stuff. But then the eu would be even more dead

What PvP are you refering to? I PvP regularly (daily) on xbox EU in Vivec campaign and while it is true that 1 bar per alliance happens regularly it also happens regularly that 2-3 bars is the norm, it depends on the time of day.

Miswar · September 2017

The numbers have dropped drastically over past few weeks in PS4 EU as well.

You might get 3 bars on Vivec if lucky and that will leave rest of campaigns unpopulated.

Kind of sad to see compared to "good old" times when there really was action in many servers etc.

Many have left due to neglected Cyrodill handling and doubt that many will comeback.

I agree that there has been times around the weekend 'prime time' when there have been 3 bars for each alliance in Vivec (EU Xbox). Weeknight prime time has dwindled a lot, daytime PvP is non existent.

I hear some guild mates mention they play against the same 6-8 players in battlegrounds without ever really seeing anyone new in the team lists.

Last weekend i tried to jump into Vivec NA and was met with a queue!!
haven't seen one of those since double AP on our server (and it only lasted until more campaigns were added, which have been left

)

I totally agree with EU being a ghost town if transfer was available

a server merge would probably mean bad connections all round too! (complete guess)

Make characters and collectibles account wide.double character slots if you had characters on both servers.problem solved.

but how could they exploit it with microtransactions is the true question.

Krayzie · September 2017

All the EU players moved to NA a long time ago because EU was dead.

Now with destiny 2 there's most likely way less.

Brrrofski · September 2017

6:30 pm last night there was 1 bar AD. That was it. That's ridiculous.

I got to cp160 on NA but the gear grind is just too much. Would welcome a server transfer option. Everyone I PvP with would take it, I'm pretty sure of it.

HoolDog · September 2017

this is the worst it's been on the EU server. I have tried levelling on the NA but it's a tough ask starting again with no stuff or support from pals.

@ZOS_GinaBruno has a server merge or server transfer been considered?

supaskrub · September 2017

also don't forget with regards to this months XBOX-EU Vivec campaign it was clear from the end of the first week how it was going to run leaderboard wise, DC have dominated in the scoring (I'm not just saying that cos I'm DC by the way), when it gets like that many people just don't even bother with going into Cyrodiil as its an uphill struggle and just go farm set gear etc. I do see your point as the last couple of weeks have been a little quiet though.

HoolDog · September 2017

DC dominate the scoreboard every campaign... they nightcap it every night then sit getting the max score for hours uncontested. That's never made it this quite before.

FoldingStars13 · September 2017

I'm hoping that the quietness of the last couple of weeks has been thanks to a new game having just come out...most of my friends list previously on eso is now on that game. Although I do have a level 14 character on the NA server, I'm hoping it's going to be a while before I gotta get the mental willpower to grind it and farm gear.
Fingers crossed the new game hype will bugger off and EU people will come back soon

xxVARLEYxx · September 2017

One problem i see is balance, having a bunch of builds that take 1-2 minutes to kill per piece is becoming a nightmare, and people just quit or moved on.
As you say @FoldingStars13 Destiny 2 and such hasn't helped our small pop.

From my own experience though with EU PvP i find a bunch of collectively not so good players huddled up, being tanky and holding block, stood on flags..

The games EU PvP population has silently spoken i feel. Nearly every person i have had words with says the same, everyones too tanky!

Just a shame, i have played consistent for 2+years, and get mobbed and tea bagged/messaged by tanks whenever i play. I'm now a 'bad player' because i try to do damage and more often then not on my own

A transfer would be very well received Mr/Mrs ZoS

pod88kk · September 2017

It's not just in PvP even the major cities feel empty, kind of like they were pre One Tamriel. I think that if things keep going this way they might need to merge the servers.

Krayzie · September 2017

Xbox NA red dominates all day in vivec and at around 9pm to 1pm next day they own the map uncontested

xxVARLEYxx · September 2017

@Krayzie at least you can go check the other campaigns on Xbox NA

Honestly, I don't even care about score. Kings legion just night cap so when I get on at like 5/6pm gmt, reds and yellows are pushing us back to get back score, which I absolutely do not blame them for. So the actual PvP and fights are incredibly dull because it's from Glademist to chalman or roebeck.

It's the same thing every single day. Trust me, most of us don't want to sit in Glademist for 4 hours every night. That's the only PvP to be had. My group often take home keeps, but it's so dull. It's just Pve. Killing NPCs.

I think I'm gonna give NA another try in all fairness. EU is dead. Everyday this week I've logged on, done horses and writs. Then just logged off. No motivation to go into PvP because it's just so dull. Grind on NA will be annoying, but if it has that much better PvP, it might be worth it.

ya, and only check them, cause Shor is dominated by 100 blue tanks and no red or yellow, and everything except kyne has zero activity

HoolDog · September 2017

NA is good

It's just a ball ache grinding everything up again... then it's the problem of not knowing other players, have no ability to make foods and needed stuff.

And which alliance to pick

White wabbit · September 2017

Dc might nightcap it but Ad and pact have the numbers during peak times that we just get zerged down , Zos need to try and do something with PvP before it's too late , it's unbalanced and stale

Don't know if you remember mighty bantam and itchierich? They were dc but went to ep on EU before going to NA. They got a guild EU on tour. Quite a lot of EU players there. I got a lot of help when I went over. Gonna give it another try this weekend I think.

maryriv · September 2017

Solo all the keeps and become emperor... duh.

HoolDog · September 2017

I have just jumped on my NA to clear my rested xp... think I will just train the horses and use the rested until the Halloween double xp hits.

Or I find people to join up with.

been levelling a class in each alliance as I need to be prepared lol

Brrrofski · September 2017

Yeh, that event will help.

I'll probably do the same. At this point it's with trying, our PvP is dead

FoldingStars13 · September 2017

I think I'm gonna start redoing my horseys and get my researching back underway on the NA server too. I forgot about the Halloween event, that wouldn't be a bad time to jump ship.

I'm pretty sure last time I was on the NA server I was in the British guild that was set up when a whole bunch of people moved over there. Lemme know what alliance people settle on if/when you move...I don't wanna be stuck on an alliance not knowing any body. My Gt is il Lottie li (Folding was my old one).

My poor hard earned cp, craft bag and gear though, if only we coud transfer it ☹️

Wrecking_Blow_Spam · September 2017

People really gunna re-grind their whole accounts?
YA'LL ARE CRAZY.

A merge is needed there's no way on this earth the majority will re grind a whole new account just bc EU is dead.

Also whilst Pvp is dead on EU I'd like to add that PVE (trails) is dead too.

RIP Xbox EU.

You mean Destiny 2?

SJD_Phoenix · September 2017

I went across to NA recently because the game in general is dead when I get home from work and buzzing on NA. That's more than partially down to the time though.

I urge EU players to move over. You just have to treat it like you're a noob again. Get on the recruitment part of this forum and on Facebook pages and find a social guild, they're out there. I could probably sort some invites out myself.

Get involved in guild activities and give back what you can and you'll get support from master crafters and higher level players, it's not that tough then. You can get help farming sets when you're CP160 and it gives you the start to that network you need.

Once you've got the ability to do writs money will just start coming in.

It's a bit of a pain for those that are mainly interested in pvp but it's well worth it.

Probably a good shout. I'm in it but I don't get much from it mainly because I'm usually online either late mornings or late late late evenings (1-4am)

America is still British was amazing while it lasted (4 weeks lol)
