    The event is running less than 24 hours a little too early for constructive feedback.

    My experience with PvP in general is that I suck at it, but I really enjoy it.

    Yesterday I took 2 accounts; 4 alts (2x PC EU and 2x PC NA) through the event.
    Did some scouting, captured some resources, attacked a fort or two.
    Got killed a couple of times. Got killed a couple more times.
    Standard day in Cyrodiil for me to be honest, with the added bonus of some extra rewards.

    ZOS, event and the game are brilliant.

    Players ruin it. Rather than enjoy decent fights lag free on the traditionally quieter campaigns folks are just AP boosting being greedy. WTH

    I skipped last event and did not enjoy the lagfest/disconnecthorror before that.

    But that was on Vivec. I now joined another server and yes it still gets laggy, but not as bad as Vivec.

    So yeah I had some fun yesterday and will play again later today.

    I kind of need to tick the first and second boxes. I'm having a lot of lag (shor) but I'm also having a lot of fun. I suck at pvp but I'm getting better at surviving and killed 2 players on the edges of the zerg, so it's quite exciting

    I was very pleasantly surprised with performance on Vivec (PC-EU).

    Spent a couple of hours there between about 4 and 7pm GMT, campaign was locked for all factions, had no crashes, a bit of lag but nothing particularly bad, 1 or 2 loading screens mid-riding but those lasted only a second or so. Joined a large group, took some keeps, did all of the kill quests and generally enjoyed it a lot.

    I've seen people complaining of poor performance also on Vivec (PC-EU), so I wonder what happened there. In any case my own experience was very positive, to my own surprise.

    just dodge vivec and sotha and you are fine most of the time unless one of those 40 man "ballgroups" shows up and starts spamming aoes failing to kill pugs.

    Also group cap for cyrodiil should be 12 but thats just my opinion.

    Pretty good so far Sota Sill had pretty long queue so should gone for another campaign.
    Misunderstood a bit as I expected tickets and did not remember how many I stared with.

    Already gotten tickets for today but will try to do some more pvp anyway at least if guild going in.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    I queued up on my CP90 character (highest I have) and after a few minutes the queue was going nowhere, so I switched to a level 25 character. Did the intro to Cyrodiil quest and the bit to activate Midyear Mayhem, then did a scout quest which involved riding across the map for what felt like 30 minutes each way (after using the shrines to go as far as I could).

    I saw absolutely no one else in the time between leaving my home base and returning. It was boring, but at least it was easy.

    I also joked with my guild that the way to spot a PvE player in PvP is to look for the person in the base constantly switching between costumes and outfits and asking themselves "What do you wear to go to war?"

    (I settled on the thieves guild costume, which I've dyed in muted dark colours because I thought, along with a dark mount, it might make me less noticeable...not that it mattered last night since there was no one around.)

    Kyne, babies.

    Fewer random loading screens than completed scouting missions. No lag. I didn't see anything that was character level in those boxes. One character from each of five accounts Xbox NA between 1800 and 2100 pst.

    Only saw enemy players with one account. The last character through was killed by a zerg of reds and then ignored by a single red and single blue.

    The EU character I ran through the event actually had 3 of the four random load screens I experienced and there were no factions with even 1 bar of population.

    Traveled in Cyro 5 mins before the start of the event, waited for 5 mins, did my quest, got my tickets in about 10 mins. Laughed my arse off at all the people loading in Cyro at once after event started and their long ass queue.
    Traveled in my home Cyro campaign this morning, taken scouting mission, logged into guest campaign where my Alliance is dominate, ported to the Keep i've had quest for, reported back, got my tickets. Total of 5 mins.

    Great event, 12 of 10. Use your brain and you will not get any problems with infinite lines of playes before you in queue.

    Had a fine time in Shor. Don’t go to Vivec simple as that. It’s not gonna be perfect anywhere but it will be a hell of a lot better than Vivec and probably Sotha.

    I already have burn out from the last event and didn't even realize another one was. Found out it was a pvp and was already put off. Tried joining a group to take a keep for the event ticket. Got the keep after a wonderful 13 fps stutter fest but no event tickets. Left as I have zero time to waste in pvp, and already having eso burnout, this would just put me off from the game for months. Guess I'll catch up on ticket during the next event

    Not even noon now and the server is already on its knees. Ret pve zergers joining in droves probably didn't help.

    Every servers main campaign just needs to be locked for new players during the event.

    It seems better than last time! My only issue is my main PVP character was not able to leave Vivec at the end of last month because I was out of town when the campaign ended. Now I either have to enter a 400+ que to get into a big lagfest, or pay a bunch of AP which I don’t really have/want to spare. I wish they gave you like one free opportunity to leave your current campaign at the start of the event or something, or they started the event at the start of a Vivec maybe?

    One of my pve characters was able to get in one of the new campaigns though so it’s not totally bad!
