We are currently investigating issues some players are having logging into the European PC/Mac megaserver. We will update as new information becomes available.

Would you participate in an annual 'Purge' -like event?

    * The PvP in this game is very lucklustre compared to other games, and i'm not even touching on the lag and performance issues.
    * If from SEA region the latency is terrible, 300ms+ ping
    * The griefing would make some vet dungeon and trial runs impossible. Progression groups have it hard enough as it is without that kind of crap being around. A ton of content would be unplayable.

    I wish they would just fix PvP and make it a thing you actually want to do. Different balancing options. Maybe smaller maps, assault/defence style with winners taking territory on the overland map. Offer different forms of engagement and not just combat would help. All those players who like trading or crafting, have something in Cyrodil which lets them influence the battle/map in a different way. Just something ... anything ...

    A lot of salty PvE players.
    Egos are such fragile things.

    Lol, the tears of pvp'ers who can't handle the whole world not catering to them and their Most Special Snowflakeness.

    Is this an example of a non toxic PvE player? lmao

    if you can't take people calling you on your BS then don't try to dish it out.

    anyway.

    One thing i will add is that players gets the worst of both worlds; there are few zones and things dedicated to it [which is fine imo because they can barely handle the existing pvp content well], and yet, all the PvE content- which is the majority of the game and playerbase - is balanced around pvp.

    no, don't even try. PvE is consistently nerfed or changed to suit the PvP minority. Separate balancing isn't even on the same dimension as zos. Seriously, when was the last time something was nerfed in PvE for PvE reasons? Like because hodor or someone was doing something too fast? I think the only time it'll happen is the major vulnerability nerf eventually, but even that might take a year or two.

    It would just be a ridiculous slaughter by PvP Ganker children, targeting PvE characters.

    Same old song and dance, nerfs happen for power creep in PvE as well as PvP.
    So easy to blame a subset of players rather than accept the reality that PvE has become a face roll.

    If folks want game world persistant pvp, what we need is a Darktide like server that allows for pvp in the entire gsme world, but only people who voluntarily choose to play there on that server would be affected obviously.

    If people know what they are getting into, it would create some interesting dynamics, as there are TONs of places with valued resources to compete over. Far too many for any one guild to monopolize, which would create dynamic political alliances etc. All of the things that PvP MMO strive for but rarely achieve when forced to do overland pvp on one simple map.

    Shadowbane, as poorly techinically written as it was code wisw, got this right as did the PvP server in Asherons Call, imo.

    Hell yeah, Asheron's Call...that PvP server was brutal.

    Judging by the reactions on this thread I'm guessing classic WoW will remain the only MMO with actual world PvP. Guess everyone has their own tastes.

    This is why pvp/pve should be separate and have separate servers. Allow people to make that choice. Instead we get a simulated zone and no reason for anyone to go to that zone outside of pvp.

    Could we atleast bring back "buff" servers? Make caltrops/vigor as much of a grind as undaunted? Sometimes I gotta PvE for sets even if I dont like it. But we made spell strategist and all the new rewards of the worthy sets tradeable so it isnt really reciprocal.

    I guess it's all an outdated concept to have pvp tied into the progression system and I'm just old fashioned.

    There's also black desert online where you're "forced" to owpvp even on normal servers, not just on their pvp server.

    Yes. Pvers complain about having a PvE Cyro, give them that for the day and PvPers get a PvP Tamriel for the day.

    This is rich coming from someone who assumes pver's have fragile egos.


    But many players do have a problem with a human killing them as opposed to AI.

    Hell to the no. The only redeeming factor about this game having PvP at all is that at least it's not literally forced on us, we have to opt in to be subjected to that crowd. Taking away the ability to avoid PvPers entirely unless we just don't play the game at all for that day is a gross suggestion.

    Edit: I saw midgetfromtheshire's suggestion above after I posted. Sure, that's the only condition on this that would not make me quit the game in disgust...just a swap. Let us have Cyrodiil and IC for that whole day with zero PvP in it and sure, y'all can have the rest. That's fair. Imagine the absolute frenzy of fishers! Just make sure there's a crafting writ board and stations available in Cyrodiil beforehand.

    Big, giant NOPE from me.

    However, fair's fair. If there were to be a Purge Day foisted upon PvE world, then there should also be a World Peace Day for one day in Cyrodiil where attacks do nothing. If you want a day to gank PvE players in their world, then we should get a free day to go do skyshards/delves/dolmens/fishing with no fear in Cyrodiil. ;)

    only if there's a peace day in cyro where you can just walk around and quest without getting ganked by 70 sweaty rank 50 pvpers who do nothing but wait for pvers to happen by.

    number 1 way to get everyone to hate the game more is by introducing/forcing more pvp.
    Bealeb319 wrote: »
    That sounds like an excellent way to get non PvP players and new players to hate the game. Would the pvpers like to participate in an annual event where you can't attack any other players and all you can do in cyrodil is shake hands with other factions?

    Not quite the same y'all. However, I would be fine with a zero PvP day where massive daedra world boss titans spawned across Cyrodiil if we PvPers got our purge day. Thats a more realistic balance.

    no, don't even try. PvE is consistently nerfed or changed to suit the PvP minority.
    Trial scores are higher than they've ever been.
    MSA scores are higher than they've ever been and is being completed in ~20 minutes.
    Average DPS is much higher

    Looks like that 'PVP balanced PvE' is really working out for you.
