    I did the survey email and that made it seem like I was already accepted and they were just confirming I was still interested. Well due to not getting an invite for the Ps4 beta I now will not be buying it since I am unable to test it.

    The thing is most of us on here signed up last year for it, then when the console versions were delayed we bought the PC version to take them up on their transfer offer, so not only have we paid for the PC version, we've supported the game, and paid for the console version. Yet that apparently means nothing.

    Pretty much how I feel as well. Anyone know if we will at least be able to preload prior to the actual console release? The thought of having preordered to be able to start downloading 65 gigs on release day does not impress me.

    @ZOS_GaryA Is there any chance at all of some extra keys for those of us here on the forums? I know it's limited but I'm sure a few extra wouldn't hurt. ( Don't know if you don't ask I was always told lol )

    That's a great question, a simple yes / no would suffice for me. I don't need exact dates.

    Just found this:

    " BETA:
    -In order to have been considered for console BETA, you needed to have applied separately months ago in order to be considered. Buying the $20 game and/or having applied and participated in the PC BETA did not identify you as a console BETA applicant for ps4 or xbox one. If you did apply but think you've been omitted or maybe used the wrong email address, please contact support "

    Well, seeing how I bought the game AND participated in the PC beta, I guess I'm not eligible for the console beta....wish I knew that little fact beforehand.

    Oh well, I'm already over it.

    I'll see you guys in Tamriel in June.

    Always worth an ask! That said, we will not be offering additional console beta codes on the forums.

    OK, so a majority of the people who applied for console beta, even those who orignally applied a year ago, did not get a beta invite.

    So my question is, Why the hell are they making general forum announcements for console beta?

    "Welcome ESOTU console beta players! Please post your feedback and bug reports in the Console Beta forum area: http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/categories/beta-discussion"

    My guess is less than 1% of the people have console beta access.
    As a casual player I was satisfied that at one point I had a char max level and near max crafting with almost all motifs and I pretty much lost interest. Then ESO discovered DLC's and now my main is just a wanabe and I am happily pulled back into the game.

    I agree. It's odd to be making general announcements about it with so few getting access. It just feels like another "welcome back weekend" for those who had beta keys but never purchased.

    Its baffling that they didn't forsee how upsetting this beta would be with the *** poor amount of keys given out

    Signed up a year or so ago for console beta. It got delayed beyond reasoning, still waited patiently despite severe lack of updates, some mention of a console beta, signed up, survey email, then jack ***.

    Have lost all motivation and will skip this one. The fact you arent doing mass testing worries me.

    This is quite sad, i see a lot of people upset over not getting beta. But trust me as someone who got to be in beta for PC it is not worth it. it will be a buggy mess despite the time it has had on pc. Also beta invites are quite literally randomly sent out. i applied for many many beta's in my time and only got 1/4th of them. It is something as a gamer you must live with.

    It was a big mistake to make this a closed beta instead of an open one. Not only does this show that they don't have enough confidence in the game to think it's ready to handle a full load of people (only 6 weeks before release), but it also pisses off a lot of the game's biggest supporters by snubbing them. But, like an earlier post pointed out, it's probably best not to expect ZOS to make the smartest decisions (based on their past record).
