No thank you

No thanks

It might be the best way to balance both games. Eso pvp would come free with the base game, and you could make it kinda like the pts, with all gear, skills, etc open from the get go.

I like your suggestions Even though I really doubt that they would release such version...
I would only play it if it was

f2p (for TESO owners)

, of course. And have an option to transfer all my AP from ESO (since it would become useless in this game) to that PvP version.

The only downside for me would be - I would almost stop playing ESO (just do some quests I still have left and there would be nothing else to do) That would be really sad, cause it would mean all my beautiful mounts and costumes would go to waste since I couldn't show them while playing PvP. I very rarely do group content like dungeons and trials nowadays, so PvP is the main activity where I get social interactions in ESO. This could be solved by allowing to copy all owned cosmetics to that new PvP version.

Also, if that game would have something like Crown Store, there would be need to have gifting there (and/or ability to safely trade gold for crowns).

And Battlegrounds would need to have option to choose preferred match mode (yesterday I played ~30 random BGs, and got only 3 DMs) I'm very very tired of this.

I don't think that the idea is technically feasible given the state of the game.

The development arc has been so warped by trying to work around game engine and server issues, it's way too late for this.

But yeah, I'd have been on board in 2016.

I don't PvP. Nor do I do much grouping. I'm primarily a PvE soloist. Yet I believe all three of those types of play are important. I know plenty of folks who enjoy all three.

That said, I do think PvP and PvE should be much more separate as far as how skills and gear work. I should think that battle spirit can be a bigger part of this as well as sets and possibly even skills that only work in one environment. PvP and PvE really are already effectively two games as far as builds and really should be balanced/managed separately.

ZoS has tried to balance them together for, what, 5+ years and we see how well that is working out. The sane person would look real hard at trying something different. I'd like to think, though, that they could still remain inside the same game.

The game should stay the same, but with separately balanced skills and gear as between PvP and PvE.

Whether the forums should be separated as between PvP and PvE is another question altogether, and my answer to that question would be no, subject to greater separation by players and Mods alike as between the PvP and PvE sub-forums.

I enjoy both sides of the game, but they need to seriously do something for the lag in Cyrodiil because its getting less and less fun

I want a PvP server. Make the alliance war mean something out with Cyrodill. Quests fraught with danger in every zone.

That's what I want. One can only hope.

I don't see balance issue between PvE and PvP. I only see performance issue in PvE and PvP.

Ideally ZOS needs to update its underlying code to make it more robust and update its server hardware. Don't think that is going to happen.

So ZOS should modify or eliminate the mechanisms in its server and software cannot handle.

Never happens, moot poll.

There are nowhere near enough PvPers in total, let alone the proportion of them that would agree with you, to make that remotely viable - especially as it couldn't be one PvP server, it would have to be six. Even then the world is so large that the few PvPers interested would be spread so far and wide that they'd never bump into each other!
