    I mean do you really want it? Cyro is such trash atm and influx in pop on ANY server will crash it. Its in such a bad shape the event would be a total disaster, alot of people already can't play in prime time because of lag an even would have all of cyro dropping....something sounds familiar..... oh yeah that same exact *** happened last year because zos doesn't care about pvp performance

    Pc na here, only bad performance is vivec but that is because it's the most populated campaign. No problems in lesser populated campaigns such as sotha. How long has console performance in PvP been like this? Is this exclusive to summerset?

    I'm not on console, but just from looking at the forum threads, console performance is an issue for a long time now. It even dates back to the release of vMoL.

    @Aliyavana If last year was any indication, once the event hits they're ALL going to be the most populated campaign, the only difference will be if you're in queue for twenty minutes or four hours.

    Considering i started a few months ago..yes I’d like to experience it, or replace it with an xp event till they fix their issues..then have it later

    I’d like to experience one of those without having to wait till the end of the year, while the xp event wouldn’t be as fun it’d give me an opportunity to grind alts

    Its not just Console as far as i'm aware from reading on here - aren't the problems in PVP across the board? Invisable walls, crashing etc etc

    But yes the event will be held until issues are resolved across the board which makes sense.

    Yes the incoming fixes are primarily due to Summerset release...though it’d be nice if the “improvements” that were promised with Summerset to performance actually occurred...but we’re not holding our breath for that...just a return to our standard Lagfest Cyrodiil will suffice

    I still remember last year, I would be like #200 in queue on one of the just for midyear campaigns. All the sudden I'm like #4 because half of the campaign just crashed and open up the queue. Get into the campaign and play for an hour, crash, back to 200 in queue.

    "performance isn't that bad..." RIGHT NOW, yeah, with less population... but Midyear Mayhem and the servers spike with everyone in Cyrodiil on all campaigns... it will be horrible if they don't fix things first.

    You do realize that during event every campaign will be like Your Vivec or even worse ? In previous events they were adding additional campaigns and it was still not enough at prime time to contain all ppl that were in queue.

    Gina said on last weeks ESO-Live that Midyear Mayhem is gonna be pushed back to get some fixes in Cyrodiil first.
    At time of broadcast they had no ETA date.
    It was toward the end of the episode I think... :)

    But! Who remembers the PvP Stress Test from about 3 years ago on PTS? Lol...
    1 hour event and I was in game maybe 15-20 minutes.
    I too am glad they are gonna try and stabilize Cryodiil before the event.

    Here in the middle of first post.

    "On a somewhat related note, while we haven’t yet announced the date for Midyear Mayhem, some of you may have guessed a general date range based on this month’s Crown Store Showcase and when the event was held last year. Making sure the game is stable enough to hold an event in Cyrodiil is critical; the current start date will be sometime after the console incremental patch goes live, and we’ll continue to shift the date if we feel we need to."

    PS4 NA is completely broken in pvp. full zergs freeze all at once. when they come back (after closing app) they are invisible. been like this since summer set drop. When clockwork was released we had never ending load screens for 3+ weeks if you ported somewhere or died. would be really nice if they cared about pvp at all, losing players nonstop.

    the amount of ap you can get now is insane anyways. wish they would have never buffed offense tics so pvp ranks actually meant something.
