Just make solo players in cyro bannable already

Lord_Bashu · September 2020

Lets get rid of solo players in Cyro please, they cause 80 percent of the issues.
I think unless you are in a group within X amount of time, you should automatically be removed from Cyro.
Cyro is one of the best battlefields in any mmo ever!! Giving Guild Leaders, and Guilds an amazingly wonderful place to create tactical groups fighting over a 30 day camp's.
Zos has created masterful design in art, combat, interlocking roles and group dynamics.
But sadly it is ruined by solo players who really only care about themselves.
Selfish, self centered, focused on themselves they bring little to this wonderful battle area that Zos has created.

1. They complain in zone about everything!
2. They typically call out keeps that they are at, once it's flagged not before to give you know... a little warning.
3. They typically talk all about their builds, and kills to no end, distrubing comm's between groups.
4. They also talk endlessly in zone about how bad the next changes by the Zos Development Team are going to be, and how it will end their ability to play their build.
5. They seem to be the sole authority on many subjects. causing a lot of grief in zone chat. Politics, and more.
6. They do little to help the map, they can't take a keep or defend a keep.
7. They useless to fight well lead and organized Guild Groups.

Lets get rid of all solo players in Cyro. Please!! They are honestly wrecking the game for the rest of us.

Meh, that rates about a 3 out of 10.

You can fix 1-5 by putting them on your ignore list.

6-7 shouldn't matter so long as you and your group is organized. They can be fodder and it will not hurt you any.

I'm guessing you were trailing your group and got ganked.

Edit: And now I've seen a post whining about banning ball groups below. Nice try, but you've got more logic and evidence in context. 6/10

Even though Cyrodiil is meant to be a battleground for large scale groups around the keeps, however, with current server performance, I don't feel like throwing myself into laggy, buggy mass a.k.a. clash of ball groups. Don't get me wrong, large groups colliding around the keeps is one of the best, most precious experience you can ever get in playing ESO... when it works properly.

I used to devote most of my time playing ESO roaming around Cyrodiil, flipping keeps and resources, however, now that the lag is dominating the zone, I found myself log in and take one or two empty outposts with small group just to get daily transmutation gems.

To me, Solo players are not the big problem. If you feel joy fighting others in Cyrodiil, you may have less time to see zone chat, or trolls in the chat. Since the Cyrodiil is unplayable most of the time, and you've got nothing to do better than taking a look at the zone chat, now that you are seeing those trolls and dirty chats in the zone chat; they were always there, far before you could notice them.

To conclude, it is true that there are solo players just trolling around, doing some dirty chats all day. I'm not defying it. However, they are not the arch enemy, it is poor server performance causing lag and bugs all around. Hope powerful programmers to fix it or pray ZOS upgrade their old servers, so that you can regain your joy of fighting other players in Cyrodiil, not giving a glance to zone chat.

Regarding how many times i joined a group and ended up standing in front of an enemy keep, being the only guy with sieges, gave me a nice laugh while reading this post.

And lets ignore the fact that its the zergs you're praising, who cause the most horrible lag. I honestly have litle understanding for people who play 90% of their time pressing random buttons in pure hope not to die and just overthrow the enemy by numbers.

I am the same, If my guild aren't online to smallscale I play on my own. Always play on my own as I can't stand pugs, but I go where the fight is. Besides I can distract an entire zerg whilst my faction(which I am very loyal to) takes keeps or I can cut off keeps where the enemy would respawn to defend a keep my faction is taking. I rarely speak in zone.

It sounds as though OP was one player within a zerg and got trampled by a solo player. That is how most of these things start... Regardless of how it was created there is a lot of generalisation formed from an unwarranted bitterness IMO. Who ever upset you, it was the player not the playstyle.

I killed thousands of groups solo

What a ridiculous suggestion.

I stopped reading after the 1st paragraph, did I miss anything?

Yes, you missed the second paragraph.

Don't call an org. group a zerg..

see.. typical solo player.. answer.. this just proves my point.

A Zerg, is a group of folks who don't siege, don't have decent gear, take 10 mins to take a keep, and mostly dance around. there is no interlocking roles, or group comp. They run down the middle when the door goes down and die.. if its defend.

If you don't know the right terms, don't use them.

Lord_Bashu · September 2020

To call an org group with group comp, a zerg is an insult.

Norgh · September 2020

No thanks I enjoy doing scouting missions which is a solo occupation.

1) Better see complains in chat zone than seeing the ball group leader spamming orders in chat and everyone else being silent.

2) Most of the time the warning is on time.

3) People perfectly communicate in chat zones. Never had an issue.

4) They have the right to do it. If you dont like it, there is the ignore option.

5) ???????

6) Yes they can. It's actually them doing it, not ball groups. Ball groups come only for AP.

7) They can fight pretty good, that's why your ball groups wiped in secs during the AoE tests.
