Never. Not interested in PvP, especially if there's no story content at all.

What's the dfference between the second and third options supposed to be?

My vote would be for the missing option - Never.

I have no interest in PvP in this game.

What's that could cover never or that was my intention.

What aren't you interested though? Not even a little bit ? @Tandor

Absolutely not. Never. I despise pvp - did enough to make me vomit in WoW and RIFT, never touching it again.

@TaSheen some modes are PvE like like capture the flag

Don't care. Don't need any of that for anything.

BGs used to be an activity of extremes for me. I could get extremely excited when things went well and extremely angry from problems that unfortunately still plague it: constant input delay (as in press the key several times to maybe have the skill/potion fire once), the game sometimes setting up teams ridiculously (twice have I found myself solo in a 4v4v1 arrangement), occasionally not getting credit for a kill or assist (in one absurd case, I trapped the victim's soul, but it didn't count as a kill).

These days I play BGs way less than in the past, as my old build (which wasn't that great) became obsolete, the new one I tried was nerfed soon after I got the sets and I keep postponing looking up another in favor of other stuff at which I'm better.

Edit: For some reason, I read the disclaimer but missed the questions at the beginning. I swear, I'm capable of reading a book from beginning to end!

Rewards: I somehow collected the three chaosball emotes and I like them; I also got the lead for the Alessia statue 3 times, meaning I can just buy them now, and that furnishing is important to an Imperial-lover such as myself; the three teams' armors are some of the coolest, in my view; the sets are okay.

Maps: I like the maps, but we could really use some new ones. Come on, this isn't even about PvP mechanics or balancing, it's a bloody map. As in a map that's covered in blood. Usually mine. I'd love to be able to die in some new places.

Modes: I love domination (the mode, the mode!) and crazy king, feel meh about deathmatch, dislike chaosball (even though I sometimes do well in it) and detest capture the relic.

One last thing: I'm quite curious to know what the "results" option is supposed to mean.

I have done quite a lot of BGs. I dislike PVP, but BGs feel more tolerable than going into IC or doing PVP related stuff in Cyrodiil. I think because there's a well defined goal and a time limit that makes it easier to digest.

I do them for several reasons: 1. To get an endeavor checked off 2. To get that red dye from achievements. 3. To get daily event tickets for Mayhem.

I got my red dye, the best red dye in the game (in my opinion) and I'm contemplating trying for the purple.

The green feels utterly out of reach, because Relic capture is the hardest BG to complete; you have to get the enemy base, snatch the relic before your teammates do, get back to your base, hope to all hopes that your relic is still there, and then turn it in all without getting killed. And then do this 100 times. Seemingly impossible to the point where I have lost hope of ever getting this one; in this case, the annoyance of it outweighs any benefit I could possibly get.

The purple one seems doable though. And I plan on going after it during Mayhem. Outside of getting dyes, though, I do not really enjoy the games. I am not certain I will continue to do BGs once I get my purple dye.

EDIT: I will say, out of all the games, I found chaosball and domination to be the most tolerable. Chaosball was even fun sometimes. Which I thought was always peculiar

I tried one BG once simply to see what it's all about, never again.

There's no reward that could get me to ever do another BG again, simply because I dislike PvP and am not in the slightest of a competitive mindset. Add to that the fact that my physical limitations and relatively slow reactions make me not suited for ESO PvP at all.

I know you didn't ask me, but as I basically replied similarly to @Tandor :

I know perfectly well what Battlegrounds are, I'm just not interested.

I don't think there has to be a reason to lack interest in something.

Despite battlegrounds having no CP, it still feels like I'm not doing enough. I think the main problem I have is that sometimes it feels like I die to nothing, just randomly die.
This happened to me 2 days ago: Was playing Capture the Relic and I was running from one point to another until I saw an enemy. I turned back to run to my team and there was no sign that I was being attacked but I was already at like 25% HP by the time I looked down.
Not sure if this is due to a graphics setting (I have everything maxxed out as far as it can go), some arcanist skills not being visible, no sound queues, or me being blind although I was staring at the back of my character. Maybe I needed to look for more signs that I was being attacked? I don't know.

Who knows but that made me feel old cause idk if I didn't notice. Could also be that every other game I've been playing just has clearer indicators, which I'm inclined to believe because a lot of the wording in this game really bugs me with my background in rocket science algorithm engineering and lawyer degree I got from reading Yugioh cards.
If you know, you know.

I've done approximately 4-5 BG matches ever. A few to get a win for the Midyear Mayhem laurels years ago, and one more on my main character to clear the "For Glory!" quest from my log.

I don't do BGs because they're exactly the sort of hypercompetitive pvp I don't enjoy, and I don't need the drama of people who take it (too) seriously being mad at me because I'm not as pro as they are.

I like Cyro pvp because I can hide in zergs contribute to keep battles without having to 1vX legions of sweaty tryhards people who know what they're doing, and if I die it doesn't really matter, and I find big sieges fun and exciting. When you have 4 people on your squad, there's more pressure on each of them to perform well. And that's not the kind of pressure I need in my life, especially when I have no reason to expect my teammates or opponents to be chill. If it were all in good fun derping around trying to do objectives or even dueling or whatnot, I could see it actually being kind of enjoyable. But that's not the picture I see painted when people will get mad at you for daring to play objectives and they're judgy about builds and blah blah.

I am interested in some of the rewards, mostly outfit styles and dyes. But I can live without those if it means avoiding the negativity and stress.

Don't really have an opinion on the maps except that's one more thing I'd have to learn to feel competent stepping foot in there.

In theory I would enjoy objective modes more than deathmatch, because I can contribute in ways other than being a murderbot. But that's dependent on people wanting to play objectives and not just be murderbots.

So basically BGs just aren't really on my radar because I assume I would not enjoy them and if I want to do pvp I can go to Cyro and shoot fire at people. The only way I can see myself getting into BGs is if I decided to completely YOLO it and not care at all whether I win or lose or what anybody else says, and hope I get some decent swag along the way.

Have participated in a few unfortunately after encountering toxic msgs that I was not good (putting it nicely here) im not keen on doing again, I did enjoy the battles unfortunately not having correct gear and practice makes me a carry to group I join

I do BGs when I need them for an endeavor and during Whitestrake's Mayhem. Though they're a last resort as far as endeavors go. I only do a BG if I can't get 3 endeavors (or the weekly) using PvE activities.

I find that most of the time, BGs are chaos regardless of the game mode. Everyone seems to treat a BG as a deathmatch.

Anyway, not my favourite thing to do, but I don't hate them, either.

I've run them a few times, do not care much for them. I do like the Cyrodiil PvP, capturing resources and Forts can be a lot of fun. I'm not that fond of the battlegrounds format, too frenetic for me.
