Extending the ESO transfer console date

Cormore

Its come to my attention that people missed the transfer date to switch the console b/c they were waiting to buy it on console last year when you said it was coming out but decided to push it back. Because of this a lot of people bought the game late on PC hoping it will be out soon after. There are plenty of people out there who don't have that great of computers to play the game on but still do for the love of the game. For instance my friends and i run the game on low graphics and we don't get to see the true beauty of the game that we play. Extending the transfer date will allow us to players who bought the game late to see the amazing graphics the way it should be and experience all of tamerial again.

Now that being said the transfer date that's out right now is set at 6/30 i think? Anyways people who do want to switch really don't want to level again. Especially threw the vet levels and all the research we have already done on all our characters with those constant hours of game play and achievements we got. For example getting emperor is a huge achievement in the game. Those who got it don't want to run again and try to get it after staying up for long hours just to get it.

For my next argument or statement if you will, i think that people who got the game on PC who were originally hoping to get it on console don't really want to leave the new friends they have made in the PC community. If the transfer date gets extended we will be able to play with our friends on console like we first intended to play with and come back on PC and play with the people we have been playing with for months now.

I hope people in the community who missed the date rise up and talk loud to ZOS about extending the console transfer date like i just did.
Thank you guys for your time and lets make this happen!!!

I missed the discount by 10 days do to the fact that they didn't advertise the discount to transfer from the console other than a single email so I hope they open it up to pre existing customers or they will probably lose a lot of money

Heromofo

Transfer copy date is the 1st of june
The pre download starts on the 5th of june
The game releases on the 9th of june

It was email, Facebook, Twitter, Xbox, PS4, Reddit, Twitch Live, Tumblr, gaming media, Google AND this website.

If you missed all of those sorry but the info was out there

This was posted somewhere on the forums:

Take from Zeni ESO forums
We can confirm that ESOTU has not been delayed for Xbox One (or for that matter, PlayStation 4). We are continuing to work with our partners at Microsoft to get the game up for pre-order on the Xbox Game Store. As soon as we have concrete details of it being for available for pre-sale, we will make sure we publicly announce them here on the forums, as well as social media. In the meantime, please visit our website for a list of retailers where you can pre-order the Xbox One version and secure your Explorer’s Pack. Thank you for your patience, and we'll see you on June 9!

Hey man, some of us are extremely busy with jobs and out on military leave or simply do not use that much social media.

For my case, I have two jobs and my only way of communication was thru email. ESO failed to notify me in a timely manner that the console transfer was available. Why was not I allowed to pre-order the transfer console just like people are able to pre-order the console game?? Why couldnt I just pay way in advance or even have an option to have it withdrawn from my account?

Honestly, what the hell is the benefits of having a plus-member account when they didn't give me multiple options?

The simple answer is:
They prefer you to miss this opportunity and will force you to buy to console game at FULL price.

The way I see it. The console game is still not out, so we should still be allowed to get the transfer console option.

im sure some feel this way but it was a limited time offer and marketed as such. So many companies do this with coupons and specials.

As someone shared...you can try contacting support but the knowledge base article suggests no reopening of the offer

They sent out emails though. Even I got them and I'm not even interested in the console version. How could you fail to check your email for a month?

Sorry you missed it but this wasn't a BestBuy or any other retail store or company offer. ZOS only has a website store and only market via social media and Internet

Other companies who sale their products use other means but this offer wasn't something they were involved in.

Dude, you are on here posting, so obviously you knew this site existed. I too work a lot. I have 50+ hour work weeks, 2 kids a wife and a lot of activities. The transfer was meant to reward folks who purchased the game in its infancy and supported it on computer, even though their intention was to play on console at some point. I received a couple of emails, including an email the day the transfer order started. You had 30 days from that email that everyone received.

I'm not saying it was best buy or any retails store but I do see other companies offer even on the pre-order tags that they have deals if you purchase in a certain amount of time I just think marketing had the time to make a little more effort for the non social media users help this is the first time I've ever joined a forum

Sausage

Ive suggested Crown service called Transfer of Progression, basically what it means, you can transfer your progression from console to PC or vice versa, as many time you want. Id love to play on them both.

Tons of people don't look at forums and many are not social media users. Aside from sending emails, which ZOS did, the only other thing they possibly could have done was put an announcement of the offer in the launcher. Or perhaps they did that too?

Short of that, they could have had a big yellow system message that spammed everybody in game announcing the deadline for the offer. Oh yeah, players would have loved that

Not big yellow spam but I don't see how 1 single email is good marketing

Broxriggar_ESO

And yes I know they sent it out through other sources but I like many others do not follow any social media. Another person is also correct that how is one month fair to people deployed overseas for military service and can't access a pc to make a transfer those people just lose out I guess

BigM

So you knew the game was going to console, but the whole time the game was P2P you never supported the game or even checked on the progress of the game? So now you expect them to help ya out and open it up again?

AHHHH NO!

Broxriggar_ESO

O no I had a sub up until 2 months ago

Broxriggar_ESO

Got upgraded to imperial with all the currency I accumulated but I don't go on social media this is the first forum I've ever been annoyed about enough to join

Broxriggar_ESO

And all who are interested I was told by tech support that if you are in game /feedback and voice your opinion on the matter

Then there is no reason you shouldn't have known about the dates! Not only was it advertised in game it was a major topic in zone chat.

Broxriggar_ESO

I had a sub doesn't mean I played the game ... I'm guilty of that neglect. but I do ha e life other than gaming I support the game I like the game. I just want my transfers.knot asking for much I'm sure eventually something will happen even if it's few based
