Forum Sections for Console Versions?

When will we see forum sections for console versions?

I would like to ask some questions and I think it would be better to ask in a console area with players that are interested in such topics.

Topics such as what? The gameplay is the same on all platforms, only technical support and guild recruitment really need separate console sections.

* What third party add-ons are supported?
* How do I remap my controller?
* What third party controllers can I use?
* How much space does each update take?
* Etc, ad anon, ad nauseam

Basically some kind of technical section, which I mentioned. We'll probably see it closer to console release, which is still 3 months away.

There are many questions that will be specific to console and I do not want to post very many of them in forum sections that are dedicated to PC. There is also only guild recruitment for PC, which posting in there for a console version would probably get trolled hard core.

You know it will be asked. Repeatedly.

"Hey I'm experiencing this bug"
"Alright. PC or console?"
"PC"
"EU or NA?"
"NA"
"Mac or PC?"

"ARGH! On Thornblade *insert complaint*
"Alright. PC or console?"
"Console"
"PS4 or Xbox?"
*insert possible NA or EU question*

I don't want to split the community. But man.. I see this coming.

Oh right, Alliance War. I completely forgot... Not only because I don't PvP, but also because the existing section is shared by both servers. I wouldn't be surprised if ZOS threw consoles in there too, because logic.

Will the maintenance schedule be the same?

Will the update/patch schedule be the same as PC or delayed a few weeks after?

How many Cyrodiil campaigns? What levels?

How do they plan to balance pvp with PC players copying toons with potentially hundreds of CP points over to console?

If we PC copy our imperial edition toons to a non-imperial edition console version, what happens?

**Insert Xbox one speicific questions**

**Insert PS4 Specific questions**

I could list more, but you get the idea

Yeah I think they will too, which is unfortunate. We already have a hard time remembering to write NA or EU everywhere.

The transfer offer already includes a digital console version, which is a direct copy of your PC account, including the Imperial Edition. You don't have to buy the game again.

I don't see why the others can't be answered in General or other appropriate sections. Especially the one about CP balance, which pertains to all versions of the game - new PC players joining later this year will face a similar problem. Don't get me wrong, I'm not against new forum sections, I just don't think there are all that many console-specific topics.
