Dear Ms. Gina and Ms. Jessica
With console release coming so soon, I wanted to ask this question:
Did Xbox or PS4 Buy DLC Exclusivity/Timed Exclusivity for ESO?
I think this is an important question to ask since Skyrim, Oblivion, and Fallout if i am not mistaken, had timed DLC exclusivity bought by Microsoft for the Xbox for those games. If i remember they got DLC 30 days or 60 days before PC got them. I would hope an official response to this question could be made. Myself and some of my friends are worried about this, and the absolute firestorm it would cause here among the PC community. Either way i'll support the game, i just thought i would ask.
If you could give us any type of official response, I would appreciate it. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely
Woodsro

Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.***Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis5 -

Ommamar✭✭✭✭It is something that needs to be addressed. Personally I hope they release DLC entirely independent of each other. So if it is ready to go on PC release it don't sit on it waiting for it to go through the platforms QC protocol.2

Fleshreaper✭✭✭✭✭Just thinking about that happening is depressing. I sure hope it doesn't happen after the year of subscriptions that PC players have paid to have access. That would be a real slap in the face, IMO.2 -
vovus69✭✭✭✭console stuff is always after PC. Because it is basically a port - you develop on PC and port to consoles. So if they will get this exclusivity - this means even longer waiting time for PC users. I hope they will not do this. Will see."If I'll need your opinion, I'll give one to you" - Rivenspire0

They'll never give the PC community something that would make the console peasants whine and complain. Wouldn't want to make them feel inferior on their inferior platform.Daggerfall Covenant

vovus69✭✭✭✭zos just need to milk the console herd for the first 3-4 months when game is new and they will all play it and after that, after 2-3-4 months, when herd will move on to the new pastures we might see some sanity and new content. This means that until Fall 2015 we will be here with no new content and see all possible weirdness... Be prepared "If I'll need your opinion, I'll give one to you" - Rivenspire0

✭✭✭✭Sturing up a storm.is not my intent. I will support the game and sub regardless. I just wanted to know so I can plan purchases accordingly since I don't have unlimited suppies of money. As long as I have rough time frames when to expect things its fine. I dealt with Skyrim getting things early and will with ESO too if they go that route.
I just wanted clarification on what to expect, that's all. I'll always be respectful about it.Rinaldo Gandolphi-Breton Sorcerer Daggerfall Covenant

What about special Dr pepper red logo armor with mountain glass weapons that shout "DO THE DEW" every time I kill someone?
Though I wouldn't be surprised to see a console collectors edition with Molag Bal plastered on the console and controller.0 -

This is why I wish people would stop making that ridiculous "joke" all the time. No, the PC release is NOT beta-testing the console release. It never has been and never will. The only PC beta-testing that happened was for the PC version itself; the console beta happened last week.
Even if there was any truth in this stupid "PC beta-testing console lolol" nonsense was true, it would be a very poor way of testing, considering the large differences between specifications between consoles and PCs and the fact that PC has addons while console doesn't.
None of this ire is aimed at you btw, so please don't worry that I'm mad at you. My irritation is aimed at the beta-testing comment and how people keep throwing it around like it means anything.
