I think the biggest part of it is being about to socialize.. with other viewers in the chat room, as well being able to ask questions to the streamer and whatnot. I stream so I can help people out, they can come ask questions, watch me do stuff so they can learn, and just because of the social aspect
Bah. Yeah, PS4 seems to not be active yet... *sighs* Hopefully sooooooon. Although with the people talking about their download % so far..

Let me restate this for you.
I have no idea how technology works. I've never worked in an industry like this, nor have I had to deal with policies and processes in a technological business such as this, but in my view this is taking too long.
Doctor's study for years to learn how to do brain surgery. Once they learn how to do it, they have to practice over and over learning more and more every time they do it. Not only that, but the doctor must pore over all sorts of information about that particular patient, so that he can get in and out of that surgery as quickly as possible.
TL;DR Your ignorant statement is ignorant.0 -
DIENASTY9✭✭✭2:52 no code...im not upset, this is just bummy. couldn't this already have been done...weeks ago? we all know damn well its going to take well past midnight to finish the 50g and then the 15g patch. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Or the one who shouts abuse because you didn't heal him when your not even a healer. Or the one that thinks everyone in Tamriel wants to here Gangsta Rap. I could go on. No doubt there are some decent folk out there, sadly not seeing them around at the moment."1 -

Hmm so the people who coded this game didnt study for years to learn how to do it? Also you have to study for years to send out some codes? Really? Sending codes to you is as complicated as brain surgery? Meanwhile ZOS has all the info they need about you as the doctor has. They have had months to get this right. Like everything else they do tho its a hot mess.0 -

That's a bit unclear and potentially (but not intentionally) misleading, @Peekachu99. A couple questions, if you don't mind, and we could better answer your question.
Did you purchase the PC/Mac-to-console transfer?
What time zone do you reside in?

How hard are the logistics of this to arrange, really, when people who order brand new off the PSN store (or Live) can be preloading and in some cases playing right now? Meanwhile, the persons who supported this game through its painful infancy get absolutely no priority or support.
Is it true that PSN codes won't go live till tomorrow? Is that the new goalpost?Edited by Peekachu99 on June 8, 2015 7:06PM5 -

I purchased the PC>PS4 transfer the day and hour it was announced. I have the PSN voucher code listed in my ESO account. I live in Canada. They verified that my code is legit and said it would not be live until after the update tomorrow. I double-checked this with 2nd tier support and was told the same information.

Give them a break, they have only had over a year to prepare for the release to console, hardly enough time to get it right O.o8 -

You made the false equivalence, not me.
Unless you've coded a game and dealt with all of the policies that the different console manufacturers put forth, and understand anything about Cost/Benefit Analysis, and everything else that they have to deal with that we have no idea about, I would say that you are wholly unqualified to put forth any opinion on this.
It's not like they sit back and say, "I wonder how we can *** off our customer base as much as possible."

Thank you. As of right now, we are still working with first party to get all PC/Mac-to-console transfer codes active today (not tomorrow.) If that changes we will update everyone in this thread the moment we know.

Another reminder why I nearly quit this game when Destiny came out. Thin on details, but I least it works."Give a man a sweet roll, he only has one to steal. Give him a sweet roll recipe, he have bunches to steal."

Well I have done quite a bit of coding. Not just that but I also design custom built servers for fortune 500 companies. So ya I think I can have an opinion on this. I am not saying they do this stuff on purpose. Its just the people down there dont seem to have the training they need to do the job. Meanwhile other companies (blizzard for example) manage to get it right the first time. This isnt a coding issue. Its emailing codes to people.
I wonder maybe it has something to do with the algorythm? I cannot know without being there but as I said I have spent the better part of 30 years now in the IT field. Specifically designing custom built machines and software for major companies. I cannot think of a reason it takes the better part of two weeks to activate some codes.0 -
MIKEYMCCSoul ShrivenPoor show guys I was told 8th June in an email now I might get it when there's two hours of the day left
I have an early shift tomorrow so can't stay up all night waiting for you to send a code just so I can start the enormous download. Suppose I might get to play this by Wednesday or Thursday if I am lucky 0 -
It really sucks that we could be potentially locked out if we enter the code over and over again. Entering the code every 10 minutes was the only thing keeping me sane! At least I had hope! Now I have nothing until 5pm!1

The beauty of your response is that it was immediately followed with ZOS_JessicaFolsom posting "Update: The time for the mailers to go out and all PC/Mac-to-console transfer codes to be active has shifted. We'll have another update for everyone at 5PM EDT."
LOL, you can't make this stuff up. ;-)3 -

You do know that 5PM EDT means it's June 9th, aka tomorrow, in quite a large part of the world right?2
