Summerset patch has killed Cyro
Cyro, specifically the vivec server, has turned into a completely unbalanced laggy zerg fest. It is no longer player v player. its player v lag. The population imbalance is one huge issue that is causing players to leave or just faction hope to the winning side with no penalty. Constant 30-60 man zergs on both ends causing mass disconnects and making the game unplayable. It is also riddled with bugs. The sprint bug where you cant do anything unless u hit shift again, weapon swap causing dismount, walls showing to be down when they are not and ur able to walk right thru them, doors saying they are at 0% but being unable to walk thru them or hit them because it didnt actually go away, skill lag where you need to hit the button multiple times for it to work, cc immunity not working at all. Time stop spam is another issue. Its made cyro even shittier. Constantly being spammed with no cooldowns to the point people cant rlly do much, add lag to that and its GG. If these problems arent resolved then cyro will become even more lopsided and more people will leave.

Yes, 4 years ago when they marketed the game as "MASSIVE PVP FIGHTS" "3 ALLIANCE WAR" "MEGA(lol)SERVERS"
They seriously dont understand that they have the best PVP system, and theyre just killing it slowly.Edited by amir412 on June 18, 2018 5:44AMPC | EU | AD |Stam Dk named "-Saidden"| 1700 CP|"..A world without fire. Ashen one, is this truly thy wish?.."29 -

yes. Cyrodiil pop cap is 100vs100vs100

✭ESO after 4 years is just old news. It is the same crap over and over again. It is most apparent they could care less about the Cyrodiil problems.10 -
maboleth✭✭✭✭✭
✭I see it like this - they marketed the game as the ultimate PVP alliance fights, but soon also made and fixed incredible PVE stuff. After overcoming the bad reputation of the early days and "ES doesn't need multiplayer" mindset, many players returned and even more ES players joined ESO for the first time.
So in a nutshell, there's far, far more PVE players and questers than PVPers. In the early days, it's quite possible that majority of their servers catered PVP areas, while now they do not. And yet, the game is getting bigger and bigger so no server space for PVP. Battlegrounds are also gaining momentum and possibly also sharing the same space... Who knows. :-/
Anyway, the game doesn't run nearly as bad as some of you claim on my PC, but yeah, I'd also like to see the improvement on the server side as well.1 -

Alot of us quit before IC dropped. It took till one tamriel before that population returned (or the patch the gave us duelling).
BGs would have increased the PvP pop further but they pay walled the *** out of it and butchered nCP balance with heavy sustain nerfs that didn't need to happen.Minno - DC - Forum-plar Extraordinaire

Though it's true the entire game saw a huge population boost during 2.6 (1T), 2.1 (IC) and 2.2 (Orsinium) were also extremely active PVP patches. These patches were generally very good for AvA. Better than any patches since, including 2.6 IMO. 2.1 was especially awesome.
2.3 (TG) was *extremely* buggy with bad performance, no sound and texture issues. These problems combined with the NA BDO launch are what killed a very active PVP population.
2.4 (DB) brought us widespread proc set use, bugged malubeth and the heavy armor buff, all of which helped make the game worse.Edited by zyk on June 19, 2018 9:13PM2 -

Define smoothly; cause early on in gw2 they cut down the view distance of zergs and caused zergs to appear suddenly 2 feet in front of you. When they removed that you pretty much only left with using just your basic attack in large fights because nothing else would register. Like I couldn’t even pvp on my ranger during those fights because I was condition based and relied on cooldown abilities that didn’t work in any zerg fight.https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXpX7JMwRXtczc5GTrIYRIw
