Please faction-lock the under-level-50 campaign

It wouldn’t hurt my feelings if U50 went away, but if players want to use it to cheese emp, who cares? The same thing happens in Blackreach so any prestige attached to the title is dead and bloated. Direct new players to the no-CP campaign and let the cheesemongers have their fun. Or nuke it. Doesn’t affect me either way.

Right. Its like this... as you said, no one really cares who emps and moves on. Its those who emp repeatedly with the same abusive cancer build that makes life hell for anyone on the server. Same guy, different day, same emp, same bad time. (Yeah same guy who is also millions ahead of perhaps someone else whose worked hard to emp and the same person refuses to abdicate. Yes its their choice but it reaches a point where one person is holding potentially 2 or 3 or maybe even 4 others back who might could emp during the life of the camp but now have had their time wasted because of one selfish 'person'.)

Please note while my post has its roots irl I am in the post 'not' referring to any one emp or faction.

I found it good fun and a challenge to get better fighting the great ad horde down there. I even had words with the guy running that lot and he was good value, it was the faction i was fighting for that was the problem (daggerfall) completely full of themselves and taking it all far too seriously.

AD can't finish anything without DC coming to clean up their messes and meanwhile a couple EP will remark how 'AD' deserves better.

If we added a faction lock u50 zone rather than restricting the current one that seems like the better option.

The real issue in cyrodil seems to be how the board gets locked and nothing happens. Gets real boring then. Being able to switch factions so that something can happen seems like a real bennefit imho.

They should just faction lock all camps period. Teach players what loyalty means.

You're playing a video game, not fighting in an actual war you know?
If you want to play for just one faction sure, but don't keep other players from having fun because they don't play like you want.

Their idea of fun typically impairs the fun of the general public.

Besides this game's PvP is competetive TEAM based, not a free for all. Why should I respect those who aren't Team players.

They should remove under 50 campaign and just add another normal campaign.

Under 50s could just play the no CP no proc campaign, that’s a good training ground.

It may be a better option at the moment, but not optimal. U50s should be fighting u50s, not trying to compete against a character someone has played for 7 years, all skill lines unlocked and mythics. U50 should NOT be deleted, but it can't exist as it is. Population is the problem, but honestly not sure what the solution world be other than adding some sort of incentive to play there...

The problem is people don't swap factions. AD logs in with 10x the population of the other factions, takes the map, then holds it. This has been going on for years and, honestly, I believe its why it died.

Faction locked no-cp to replace u50 would probably be the logical choice.

Just leave under 50 alone, if you don't like it don't play it, simple.
