At the start of NA PC prime time today, there was a que of 150 to get into vivec (the last active PVP server). Wtf is going on?!?!?!? There is more than enough pop for the other servers to be active. It just seems that everyone wants to Zerg surf, but noone wants to admit it.

✭✭✭✭✭The main campaigns are normally home to many big guilds, guild members generally don't want to play on another campaign when half their friends are already active in the main one that night.
At least that's always how it's been when I've noticed it.@Turelus - EU PC Megaserver

The answer that khajiit can give are quite obvious.
Of course this one might say that one should not be on the side that's so zergy. But that would be rude, and we already know that side just uses population exploits and faction alts to bypass the queue anyways.
Or this one might say that some folks should come fight for the side that'll lead to the most challenging fights. But then you'd also be on the side with the most bowtatoes. Plus all those faction alts who just exist to be farmed by the zerg faction.
So Telel must instead say. Meh. There never seems to be any friendly players on when this one is running.Character: Telel

✭✭✭✭✭I wanna play with my friends! At least that's why I was one of those 75 when I queued up, which quickly grew to 1 of 140+. I waited an hour in queue, but boy, was it worth it for the fights!0 -
Vilestride✭✭✭✭✭To be honest, its good having everyone playing on the same campaign it makes it more meaningful. I'd love for the population caps to start going back up again it's just a shame the servers could not handle it.Edited by Vilestride on November 11, 2017 5:25AM4

Primetime pops in Shor are in a good place right now generally 2 bars across with the occasional 3. More than this and it’s just gonna turn into a 7 day Vivec. IMO, in light of the way the servers respond, ZOS needs to cap populations at what would now be 2 bars and then add campaigns as needed.0 -

The good thing about shor is the enemies are in groups no larger than 20 or so, so you're not forced into running a ball group meta. I wish players would spread out more in vivec - there needs to be some changes made to the game to promote spreading out and not just running around in groups of 50 or so.Edited by IxSTALKERxI on November 11, 2017 2:11PMNA | PC | Aldmeri DominionLaser Eyes AR 26 Arcanist | Stalker V AR 41 Warden | I Stalker I AR 42 NB | Stalkersaurus AR 31 Templar | Stalker Ill AR 31 Sorc | Nigel the Great of BlackwaterFormer Emperor x11 campaign cyclesVenatus Officer | RIP RÁGE | YouTube Channel3 -

Shor should be doorless, randomized spawned camps you can rez at regardless of in range with an objective nearby with that objective only counting towards score, and lock the trip keeps so no faction can Zerg the late hours.
If it's completely different, but removes the headache of seeing a keep on low pop server, you'd see more pop. Especially for those of us wanting a mix of open cyro objective play with the availability of BGs fast rez.

✭✭✭✭2 bars across most of prime time last night in Shor. I had audio loss once (at EP's last emp keep). Shor has it's issues, of course, but it's been shaping up.
I'd like to see ZOS use Shor to try out new ideas. Disable emp. Have different scoring/buff mechanics. Try something new like any of the numerous suggestions people have made.5
