    This game sold in the millions and now I bet there aren't 100k subs. It is that bad.

    If that is true, that would be a "we f'ed up bad" kind of number. I don't think it's that bad but given the TES lineage maybe so. It's all relative. Speaking about relatively, Wildstar is doing very well right out of the gate.

    Yes it is. Do you play?

    Yup. I was in Craglorn yesterday for about two hours grinding xp in anomaly groups. Zone chat in Craglorn was relatively active with people looking for instances and boss grinding groups.

    Lol. I meant Wildstar since you mentioned it.

    I doubt they will actually release on consoles. They have to plan for free to play in about 3 months

    I doubt that what you said is true. In the worst case scenario, they go b2p. I seriously doubt they will ever give away the box or digital download of the game for free. Bad precedent for a Bethesda game. It's not Hearthstone after all.

    And if eso did eventually go b2p, I don't expect it until 2015. A change in 2014 would really mean the numbers currently in the game are really, really, really bad.

    May I just say you "hit the nail on the head"

    Hasn't Neverwinter been released on Xbox One now?
    What ESO really needs is an Auction Horse.
    That's right... Horse.

    i honestly think that ZOS expects the XBOX and PS versions to be the same as PC and are only testing in house.

    they really need to understand that those systems will have unique problems..

    FF11 was the first real MMO i played. it was a true cross platform MMO that had servers that served any player who was in that server no matter what system they played on.

    each system played differantly.. the people on PS2 were the only ones able to use this one trick where they could get past the map boundry in a certain place. that bug was never fixed because it had no advantage other than "hey look at me" and no effect on gameplay. it was a early zone so nothing was gained by having high level players use that hole.

    that game did pretty well apart from that but there were ALWAYS system unique issues.

    ZOS and TES both have historys of being buggy in ways you would never expect, and have proven to be coding nightmares for the programmers.

    Each past TES game has had differant issues on each platform. far back as morrowind, the first one to hit a console. Hell morrowind is still terrible on the consoles it was on, and at this point no longer gets any support so even if you have a good copy there is no point in playing it. Oblivion had system unique issues as well as the global ones, and so did skyrim.

    ZOS has shown they have issues defeating some of these bugs, and have even shown issues in keeping some of them defeated. Right now the only thing going for them in the console release is the fact that they will be doing the consoles on differant servers, meaning bugs that might give an advantage to one platform will not affect the others.
    I play every class in every situation. I love them all.

    Gah... as a PS4 player... I'm jealous! That game is going to give ESO a run for it's money on consoles.

    That game won't be any competition for ESO lol.
    Also Xbox is far more important to ZOS than PS4.

    Just purchase the PC version, install, log in and you are all set up for a premium beta experience.

    @Hardcorakias‌ In all seriousness, though, you 'can' bring over your entire account, characters et al., and the progress you make on the PC version when the Xbox One version comes out later for a $20 fee, which isn't too bad considering that's a lot of playtime you'll get in prior to getting it on the Xbox One. I'm not too sure on the details, but I do recall reading there would be a discount if you did indeed purchase the game for both platforms; you might want to wait for more information on that. As the game might not come out this year on the Xbox One, playing it on the PC would allow you to get a very great headstart.

    *cough* PC Master Race *cough cough* ;)

    Actually if you or anyone has not purchased the game from a retail store, code activation or directly from ZOS by June 9, 2014 your account is not eligible for an account copy.

    On a prior TWITCH live the company suggested more info would come in April. Maybe that is beta info or maybe not...maybe even a console delay

    The only console info that have given is the fact its not coming out soon and you can convert your pc version to console. Google is your friend.


    IF your PC version was active by June 9, 2014

    Hi there i recently bought an Xbox One and i was wondering where can i find the beta sign up link (if there is one now that is) for my console.

    Thank you.

    The BETa sign ups for console opened and closed last year just before PC launch.
    If they re-open the sign ups it may as well be a free beta open to all.
    It's also possible that they will extend it to all who are eligible with to copy accounts.

    Honestly they just need to announce something tho. Either generate excitement or quiet the crowd
