In the fantasy MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online, there is a server space shortage in the PvP campaigns.
Once again, one of those problems that no one thought of beforehand, and now people say: “It’s logical; they should have known!”
Since Monday, the PvP battleground Cyrodiil has also become attractive for PvE players, as the “Imperial City”, a mixed PvE/PvP zone, has opened. This has led to such a huge influx to Cyrodiil that the existing instances of the map, the so-called campaigns, can no longer cope with the demand.
PvP players are upset: These PvE players are taking the server spots away from us who want to engage in normal PvP. But essentially, everyone is annoyed: I can’t play, I’m stuck in a death queue.
At Zenimax, they reacted and opened a new campaign “Flame Tongue”. But even that had a considerable waiting line after a short time. It can be expected that more campaigns will follow.
Interestingly: At the moment, only the PC version has the issue, as only there is the Imperial City already open. It can be expected that the influx on Xbox One and Playstation 4 will be even more massive. In the past, for the PC version of The Elder Scrolls Online, developers had to close campaigns because the interest was not as great as initially expected. For the consoles, however, new campaigns had to be opened after the release, as the interest in Cyrodiil was tremendous even without the Imperial City.
