Faction lock need improvement

Currently ppl with multiple accounts still bypassing this rule. And account is really just a 1 time investment, it’s also dirt cheap.
My idea: campaign faction lock based on IP. Once this is enforced, ppl who still insist on faction hopping will need to also buy vpn.

✭✭✭✭✭True, but at least they have to go through all the leveling, getting CP all over again and farming all the gear.
So for the few that go to all that trouble I will not have a problem with.4 -

I love people who talk about enforcement via IP address - it usually shows off someone who has no idea what they are talking about.LeagueTroll wrote: »My idea: campaign faction lock based on IP. Once this is enforced, ppl who still insist on faction hopping will need to also buy vpn.
Please explain how that would work?

✭✭✭✭You realize people could easily get around this by using a VPN (which a lot of people do already) and that even barring that, IP addresses aren't static unless you pay to have one set up like that, right? And it's generally only businesses that bother with static IPs for their systems.PC-NA | Been around since closed beta

I'm not sure too many people with a VPN to play ESO. But then again, maybe those are the same people complaining about the lag!You realize people could easily get around this by using a VPN (which a lot of people do already) and that even barring that, IP addresses aren't static unless you pay to have one set up like that, right? And it's generally only businesses that bother with static IPs for their systems.
The other issue with IP addresses (aside from the fact they are dynamic) is that they can also be shared; i.e. a college dormitory or a housing unit.Lethal zergling0 -

You just take a guess on what their public IP address range is baed on the 1 you get at the moment and if someone simply happens to be on the same ISP, sorry for their luck. Forget roommates both playing the game. Oh, and college campuses better hold a student meeting to pick their faction. All because those terrible people who play more than 1 faction and would buy an account to harass others.2 -
Cerra✭✭✭They can't really enforce multiple accounts because multiple people might be playing them. Not every husband and wife has two computers, sometimes they share.1

What if I told you that most husbands and wifes, even if they have their own computer; will show up as coming from the same IP address?1 -

✭✭✭✭✭LOL. So now everyone who lives in the same household will be restricted to one alliance. LOL. The suggestion seems poorly thought out as I just pointed out the huge and seemingly obvious flaw that will stand as the reason Zos will never implement it.0 -
