I am talkign about "Players" who join in RANKED Battlegrounds ZOS ? @ZOS_GinaBruno
  • They stop playing as soon as there is a slight disadvantage or not playing AT ALL
  • Some join die once and never revive
  • Others never live spawn crouch and do nothing

I guess they join from work or just want the XP points and gear, but damn, this is HIGHLY TOXIC and not respecting the time of others !

This is really unbearable...

    What do you make of the players who got stucked in a wall due to warden charm?

    They can't play anymore and therefore can't participate in the work of the group in order to win if they stay. Before placing higher penalties for leaving battlegrounds early, first they should remove charm and other bugs that can place such situations that makes a player unnable to play.

    I did not know it was a thing, but sure, anything to have healthy PVP...

    I cannot stand people who abuse others.

    Seriously, do you damn play your game ZOS ???

    Do something it is UNBEARABLE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Add options to not queue with people who do not participate or abandon like 1 min in a game or stay hidden with no damage and no healing for 30s !!! Same for last person standing and hidding at spawn wasting everyone's time


    Remove any point, XP under those conditions please !!!!

    For next update !!!!

    It is REALLY TOO MUCH

    ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

    Ban them, remove them, hand them, shame them DO SOMETHING @ZOS !!!!

    Life is short and we have billions of better things to do than having [snip] people wasting others' time.

    People who are doing such things are indeed unacceptable, but once again the warden charm is causing problems in BGs too.

    But if warden charm was to be removed, I will agree that harsher punishments should be given for quitting and not being active in BGs.

    It happens almost every single deathmatch that someone decides to be a sore loser and stay up on the platform to make the game take as long as possible. At least the map with the scaffolding in the middle lets you hit them, the other maps feel like a pathetic scramble to try and get them. If anything, warden charm is the only thing that seems to help since you can get them stuck by the edge when they walk out to hit people, giving enough time to kill them. Would be better if you can chain or charm them off the platform… or, you know, the game should force them down.

    Maybe ZoS needs to look at the root of the match making not working well. Mayhaps it is just the fact that there aren't many people queuing for that content in the first place. I joined 3 that were fun, then I got bumped into terrible matches and stopped queuing. When it is that lopsided, I too just want to get it over with. It also doesn't help the leaving penalty is much worse in battlegrounds for some reason. I would think it would be less than 15mins not 30mins+.

    Kevin at zos acknowledged that mmr needed to be looked at in a other thread but I forget which one. He basically said it wasnt happening soon but that it was on their radar.

    My fellow ESO player in the third millenium they still had to "investigate" people out of bounds on top of a keep with siege in Cyro over multiple days, idk what you think they are going to do about something that needs even an ounce of subjective judgement like BG griefing.

    As far as we can tell, the game only exists as chat logs and gold transactions to the TOS enforcement team. I'm honestly unsure if there's any one involved with ingame moderation who could even explain to you what a Battleground was.

    Oh I forgot, they also came down really hard on the people who dared to game the transmute system during that one event and repeat a daily endeavour for company scrip that one time.

    Not Battlegrounds, but I got knocked into a wall by Warden Charm in Cyrodiil tonight. I could totally see it happening in BGs if the circumstances are right.

    Not so long ago, I got stuck under the stairs in a battleground due to Explosive Charge (my cast). I had to beg the people on my team to fight over the stairs so the enemy AoE would (eventually) kill me.

    Yeah it happens all the time in Cyrodiil, but the guy claiming it does in Ranked as a means to sandbag the proposal is just an outright exaggeration.

    If we were talking 8v8, yes it happens, and you can get knocked below the boat and get trapped under the map for the whole game. It happened to me and I was furious… but that can happen with knockbacks just as easily as charm, and again, the OP is suggesting an enforcement of sportsmanship in Ranked play… which is completely fair.
