Transfer date for consle should be extended

Cormore

I feel like ZOS should extend the date for the console version for the people who got it late after they pushed it back the console date from last year.

Edit: clarified thread subject

Transfer date should be extended on account of the lack of any sort of communication other than voice chat (which I'm fine with for dungeons, but for trade, get real).

I'll be playing in PC for as long as I can. We still don't have a date given by ZoS for when they plan to enable account linking.

idk

I fail to see the logic other than console users had to wait longer than originally expected so maybe extend the wait further?

If you were in BeTa it's linked when you sign in on console. The game will ask you to log into your account.
The date for the transfer...prob hear more on twitch live in 8 minutes

@Cormore
Why would the date need to be extended? Are you asking that people who purchased PC after The cut off be allowed to transfer? That doesn't make sense either as it was heavily advertised so that ppl who pre-ordered or who were going to buy within the first 90 days of the release go the deal. That's pretty generous as ZOS looses $40

I feel less inclined to buy this on console.
I was very disappointed by the beta and refused to buy the game.
After the promotional weekend I decided to buy it, and while I still feel like this game has a long way to go I was presently surprised by the changes.
IMO they already made money off me. If I could transfer I would probably be buying a subscription/ crowns by now, making them more money.
Now I'm unlikely to do it for either, especially since I would have to spend $100 and get a bunch of physical crap I don't want to get the Imperial Edition on disc.

i dont see how theyre losing money though. but yeah im talking about the people who had to by it on pc b/c the console date last year was pushed. or that the people who got the game late can play on console too if they choose.

You can buy the standard version and then upgrade to Imperial bonuses from the Imperial Edition in the crown store

@Curragraigue
its the whole re leveling on console thats going to be a pain. even when you have 3 vets already on pc with emp. dont think imperial would make a difference

It's $40 cheaper and some of the items I have are a result of crowns. The same applies to others as you can't transfer crowns so ppl may make purchases to transfer over items.

Let's say it's 1,000 accounts that transfer over.
Let's say there are another 500-1,000 more accounts who either missed the transfer or who want to transfer

I'm sure my numbers are far from accurate but that's $20,000 - $60,000 give or take based on basic to Imperial editions using 1,000 people. If the actual number is 250,000 accounts you can see why it's a big deal of revenue to miss out on
