When console launches where will you stand?

Vulsahdaal

On launch day I will be on Xbox one, and probably will remain there for a week or two.
Judging from my past experience of having quite a few same title games on both console and pc, it seems after a few weeks I always wind up back on pc..I dont see how this time would be any different..

What makes you think Cyrodiil won't be laggy?
Beta was no indicator of lags. When the floodgates are open, only then will we see.
Just because consoles are more streamlined doesn't mean inherent bugs that are in the base code won't cause issues there. And ZoS already admitted that the lag in Cyrodiil is less people's specs and more a problem in the coding in the game, and guess what - consoles are getting pretty much exactly the same game as PC's have... It's not like they built a new engine from scratch specifically for consoles. Only thing that changes is social interaction due to different networks, connection and authentication methods and UI changes obviously. Base game does not change - means ground layer bugs that can't be tracked or pinpointed don't change either, regardless what platform.
A buggy skill that can't be fixed on PC will be a buggy skill on Xbox, because they haven't found a way to fix or track the root of the problem. (This is just one example of many)

Only time will tell - but I will bet you 10k in-game gold that within a month of console launch - the forums will be flooded with issue and cry posts, and I bet they will be pretty much the same/similar as PC ones... Mark my words.
You can white-knight your precious Xbox all you want, but this has nothing to do with the platform - this is the game itself. And since all platforms are x86 architecture, there is literally no difference between them apart from OS and Network, this isn't 7th gen anymore.

just speaking on Xbox....unless ZOS decided to run it on their own without server help, it wont be laggy.

You're too optimistic. I bet it won't take anywhere near a month. I suspect this will be the case pretty much from day one. It's not a good sign that ZOS didn't even stress-test the consoles before launch with an open beta. The second people start to flood the server on the 9th, all kinds of unexpected (and some expected) problems will probably be popping up. I don't even want to think about all the players running around with open mikes and and flooding into starter zones all at once.

I think I'll see you guys sometime after the first console patch.

PC forever!

Sticking to the pc and going to get me a 4k 60fps monster. That way when I post pics/vids in 4k with my controller and addons, they can see what it is like to be in the master race.

I'm pretty version the only way ZoS won't be using an exclusive server is if they allow player servers, which won't happen. I do not believe Microsoft will offer Amy assistance on that end.

Oh grow a pair... >_> The goal is to enjoy the game, not be on the side that burdens its megaserver the most with its population. XD

On launch day I'll be staying off the net so that my home connection is devoted to the huge download my XB1 will be doing. I think I'll play Oblivion that day since it's the last TES game I can play completely offline.

Going forward I'll be playing both PC and XB1.

Sanguinantis

Just a quick question:

I will go to the GameStop after work and buy me a Copy of TESTU for the PS4.
Can someone tell me at which time i can login on June 9th?

Location: Germany.
