Just wondering if there was a plan to get a separate forum for the console version. It does help matters when people want to share info to "their" community be it bugs,sales,guild recruiting ect.
Anything useful that players are wanting added into the game all fall under the category of "Yer ruinin my 'mersion!" Sallington

    I don't think they plan on it but I can't remember where they said this.

    There are the specific support forum categories for support or tech inquiries though but I know that isn't what you mean.

    I guess there will be a lot specifying needed for Guilds and so forth.

    "Console related threads are dominating General Discussion at the moment, but this is expected leading up to console launch. Afterward, this matter will start to calm down..."

    Which was easily done by Defiance, not sure about other console/PC mmos. ZOS can't be bothered to do it.

    What a wonderful way for ZOS to continue to support their PC customers... by making it increasingly difficult to find anything related to their gaming experience while reminding us all of the reason why new content has been shelved for the last new (and next few) months.

    Wow, I am feeling so valued as a PC customer right now.

    Really? It is that bad? They are trying to launch on 2 more systems and you are that offended? Give me a break. You should be on the TnT Network because "You KNOW drama!"

    Really wish they would make some separate forum topics for things that are only console related, half of the first 4 pages of general are console rubbish right now.

    It's not exactly rocket science or "a weeks of work for a dev team" to put in one....1..... more forums for the console folks.

    I would have made a LOT of sense, even if just temporarily. Then again, I'm sure they thought the launch would be flawless...

    But wouldn't it have made it much easier to try and keep all the "ZOMG MU GAMZ BROK3N!" topics over on another forum?
    It isn't like console release was decided last week at a share holders meeting.. They had time to clear the blast zone.

    hmm


    If they insist on keeping console and pc accounts separate, they need to keep all three, PS4 and Xbox One and PC/MAC forums separate. It is only logical since pc and console are now getting different servers and glitches.
    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.

    ... and the development hiatus for months before that. Try again.

    Yes, and those two systems should have their own forums for this. In fact, for many of the threads which are based around technical issues they do have their own forums. XBox One and the PS4 Technical Support. In the same way as, apparently, I know drama, maybe either ZOS or those posters or both should get to know the basics of reading comprehension and/or common sense.

    Well most of the console-related problems that keeps popping up in General Discussion most likely haven't moved yet to its respective Customer Support forum. Here's to hoping that we won't endure this for more than a week .

    All of the specifically-console-related threads I'm seeing at the moment in General are threads that should be in the Tech Support sections.

    There's already an active thread on this matter here, so we are locking this thread. Please feel free to jump into that discussion.

    There are separate platform sections for the Support and Guild Recruitment categories, but we don't have an plans to create other platform-specific sections. Console discussion is dominating General Discussion at the moment, but this will calm down as we move away from launch. Most other subforms are also platform neutral at the moment.

    We are actively moving threads to the tech forums when appropriate, but anything that applies to both Xbox One and PS4 is being left in GD.
