I'm seeing rumors in zone chats of the patch being released at different dates. Can someone confirm the exact date the patch will be released?

    Why do the PC players always get things earlier? If it's because ZOS has to jump through hoops with Sony and Microsoft then why can't they just push back the PC date to match Consoles, then everyone gets it at the same time.

    Why should PC players be held back because of game system limitations and restrictions?

    You can thank us PC players for our free bug-testing... at least by the time console release happens, people will know what not to do to eff stuff up, since it will still be a few more patches until they fix the problems >_>

    Edit: I suck at English.

    Do the titles "Dawnguard", "Hearthfire", or "Dragonborn" mean anything to you? ;)

    How is that the voice of reason? Not like PC getting it before console ruins the experience for you.

    Having the experience ruined isn't the issue here. It's making it so ALL players experience the content equally at the same time, how is it not reasonable? What, am I rocking the boat here or something? Am I opposing the "Winner and Loser" mentality? Are PC players the older brother in this family that always gets the shiny thing first? Jesus guys don't make me get all Psychology 101 on this, I shouldn't have to this should be simple.

    ...this has gone off track with the OP.

    It's selfish.

    It's you being selfish.

    PCs can accept the patch earlier, consoles take longer.

    So you selfishly want all PC players to wait for consoles to be ready, because it would make you feel better.

    That is selfish.

    Mm. MMmmm. Okay, lol. I know this is bait. Oh boy but is it working.

    Me being selfish, would be me demanding something given to me that is restricted from you. Because of PC not being hindered by policy, you are being given something that is, at the time of release, is still restricted from us. If @AjiBuster499's dates are correct-ish, Console players are going to be restricted from content that you will liberally enjoy for at least 2 weeks. My only crime here, was to suggest the PC launch date be matched to Console, so that EVERYONE can enjoy the content at the SAME time, TOGETHER. But no, since Consoles are such a burden to gaming, PC players should have all the special circumstances they can get, because they deserve it right? It's only fair that PC be held special above the rest.

    I am so sorry for being so selfish.

    No you being selfish requires nothing more than wanting something to happen that would please you, but would also interfere with other people's experiences.

    It's called beta testing. PC players have served as beta testers throughout this game's history.

    Hi commie. Equality does not exist, deal with it comrade. :wink: selfish brat "why do they get it first mommy? It's not fair... boohoo"

    And so that my first post isn't all banter: can anyone tell me if a particular sized house will only be available in a particular place, or can you get, say, a small house in more than just one single place on the map? thanks

    And it seems the console-players forget a few things:

    1. A lot of games these days are console only. PC-players can only hope to play it years later when they release a PC version.
    2. A lot of games were released first on consoles before they even hit the PC's (like GTA5).

    So dont come whining that you have to wait 2 freaking weeks for a (probaly worthless) dlc.

    On the good side of all this is consoles are able to benefit from PC live beta testing and getting fixes faster since PC players had to put up with all the bugs a new patch brings, of course new bugs will always find their way into consoles is the downside /sigh
