LSOD (load screen of death) in Battlegrounds

Hi as many people are now becoming aware the battleground queue system is not working well, typically when myself and others who are doing solo queues attempt to enter a battleground it will get stuck on a load screen and than display the message "cannot enter battleground" this is a persistent problem which for people who cannot cope with the lag in Cyrodil is the only option for PVP. There is a lot of things PVP players have to deal with other than balance issues but I won't get into them all right now (rewards), we actually cannot play the game now and are basically being pushed out of Tamriel.
In the interest of staying focuses on solutions we have found that queuing with another person helps prevent some of the LSOD issue's, the upside is it is getting people to play more organized mostly duos ^^, but in order to have hope that this will be fixed we need this to be brought to the top of the priority list, Cyrodil has never been able to handle the large groups and zergs from the start of this game....guys it never will and playing in that lag is bad for you everyone is so damn grumpy just move on, there is no Overland PVP, without battlegrounds there is NO PVP in this game aside from duels. The fast paced gameplay huge skill curve and variety of possible builds or gear combinations really lends itself to PVP, it's one of the highlights of this game. What can we do to help make this better, or at the least give us a glimmer of hope it will be resolved post haste or sometime in the future. ~ @Hebah looking for q buddy so I can play.

    I've been getting random load screens in cyro too. This has been an issue for some time now. It seems to vanish for a bit then it starts happening again.
    And yes there is pvp other than BG's. I enjoy pvp and dont much care for BG's because they get boring fast. If you want a challenge, play in cyro solo without a grp to back you up.

    Don't assume everyone has your mind set.

    It's the lag, that has been an issue there always, only time there is acceptable performance in there is off hours, there is nothing to fight but doors and NPCs, large scale if fun but unplayable, that is the main issue.

    What server are you playing on? I'm on PC NA main cp 30 day camp. I tend to play in the morning and early evenings. The mornings, up until around 8pm est, performance is great for me. After 8pm it goes to hell.

    I dont knock you for liking BG's. The reason I like cyro over BG's is I have more variety in may gameplay. Siege, solo, zerg surf, dueling, etc. You also get a randomness in cyro you dont get in BG's.

    That's just my opinion, for what it's worth and I hope they get the grp finder for BG's sorted out for those who do enjoy it.
