More I think about it, all new releases have major issues on first couple of days till people start moving out into the world. I think this is a big mistake on all 3 party's (ZoS, M$, Sony). They should of thought of a way to have group of people getting in on one day others on another. Everyone on same day may cause problems. But am not that big on consoles, so not sure how these things work with you guys.

Thats odd, eso didnt have much issue at immediate launch, people were able to login and play .... First week or so was considerd a success, then people started finding all the bugs, broken quest chains, achievement s ect.
But first few days had no issues, thats just eso on pc tho

PC had issues but it was considered better than most other MMO's

I had early access and had issues as well as others but it was playable.....TONs of bugs but playable

Same. I had early access and considering I had played other MMO's it was one of the smoother launches. Rift was probably the best launch of a MMO as far as the degree of issues/bugs. ESO's launch was pretty good on the basis of being able to log in and actually play a bit. As you stated, there were bugs and quest issues, but it was not plagued with connectivity issues, massive lag issues and the sort of things that have plagued many MMO's at launch.

Yea id be surprised if launch didnt go smooth stability wise. Gonna make picking a pvp campaign intresting for my main on console.
I doubt there will be enough playing at once to stress the server pve side.
I seriously doubt cyrodil will be able to hanldle 72 players in 1 area much less 100's. Should be an intresting launch either way.

ESO appears to definitely soak up a solid chunk of a PS4's factory HDD.

Yeah I bought a 2TB external for my XBox because I was having issues with my default drive and my "must have" games. I think ESO would have left me with like 17 GB free otherwise.

Here's me hoping for day 1 DLC *crosses fingers*

Just a question out of curiosity. Are the old Xbox 360's and PS3's any good. Not for this but for the older games. I'm wondering if any one here still uses them.

Its 75g because Xbox and PS4 get Imp City at release while PC has to wait for it.....

Im glad I cleared out all the old games I wasnt playing if this is true.

HUH? You have a link to that? Because last I heard consoles are two months behind PC/MAC!

I think they are suggesting the files are included, not necessarily access to the content....but a link would be nice I agree

I don't think this will be the case. Bethesda has their E3 Press Conference the following Sunday after the Console Release on 6/9 and I think they will announce DLC for the game at that conference. Weather it will be announced and made available is doubtful, but it would be cool, especially for the long time PC players.

I am going to suggest that what will happen is that they will show/announce the DLC and it will be coming in the coming months. No reason to give console new locations etc. right at release. It would be nice if it would come to PC now and in a few months later to console, but I think ZOS is not going to want to alienate earthier side. I know in the last ESO Live they said that stuff will typically come out on PC first, but I think something like a major DLC add-on would only see a week or so early for PC then for console.

So for E3, I predict they will announce 2 DLC that contain both PVP and PVE content and a few other things. None will be available for at least 2 months from now. August for the first DLC and around the holidays for the 2nd DLC.
