[EDIT] The Console Copy IS Complete - Confirmation email included

Cuyler · June 2015

Just wondering as I have my inventories full with all my items and would like to put some back into the guild banks......is the Console copy complete @ZOS, @ZOS_GinaBruno ?

Quote from the Email I received upon ordering

Your account will be copied from PC/Mac to console on June 1, 2015, at 10AM EDT. Shortly after your account is copied from PC/Mac to the console of your choice, you will receive your digital game code for The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited.

You should know for sure when you get your email. I haven't received one yet myself

Cuyler · June 2015

Ah yes....thank you.

Jeckll · June 2015

I'm also still waiting. Didnt find a clue if they send a confirmation email.

Cuyler · June 2015

Has anyone received an email with the digital game code yet?

ohheynix · June 2015

They said shortly after the copy our codes will get released. My guess is after the EU maintenance is when we will get the codes, seeing as the NA copies occurred at the end of our maintenance. They've gotta be able to transfer EVERYONE before they can send out our codes :P

NewBlacksmurf · June 2015

Based on the console BETA email, I would think they will start after 5pm EST, so in 2 more hours IF they are going out today. Keep in mind there was an announcement for the beta emails and no announcement for this so maybe June 2,3,4,5th...who knows

I'm in no rush as ESP Plus can't even be seen on the Xbox One marketplace which means if you transfer, the 10% research bonus wont apply. (This matter cause they revised the statement that research wouldn't reset)

who knows...maybe they forgot to copy OR, it didn't go so well

The account copy is actually just wrapping up. Everyone that's eligible should receive a confirmation email shortly!

Just got it! Thanks Gina

"Thank you for purchasing The Elder Scrolls® Online: Tamriel Unlimited™ with account copy. We're happy to let you know that your account copy is complete. From this point forward, your two accounts will not share any progression or items.

We will be sending your digital code for The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited on June 8th. We understand the desire to download the game on your console of choice earlier. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer a code to pre-load due to console limitations.

Upon logging into ESOTU on your console for the first time, you will be required to link your PlayStation™Network account/Xbox Live account to your ESOTU PC/Mac account in order to access your copied characters. For a complete list of what was included with the copy, or additional information about the copy, please visit help.elderscrollsonline.com.

Thank you for your continued support.

Same here, woohoo. Now I can finally set my traits to train up again, haha.

Tallowby · June 2015

Got the first email.... no code yet

Yep codes coming on June 8th. But the character copy (at least in my case) is done.

Slylok · June 2015

From the way the email reads we are not going to get to pre load like most other games. The code will arrive on June 8th and the game releases on June 9th so only those that get the physical copy and those with access to really fast internet connections will be able to get access early after release.

The rest of us will spend 3-5 days downloading the game again.. This is why the beta client should have been made to be able to be patched to the live client.

Nothing huge but annoying nonetheless.

UGH.

Might be able to DL it over night with our speeds and play June 9 tho.

Pallmor · June 2015

They split my poor brave Nord in two and didn't even have the decency to give me a pre-load!!

Even though am not moving to console I have to say that was fast transferring all those accounts in that kind of time. I'm impressed.

traigusb14_ESO2 · June 2015

If you have a local friend with and a big USB stick or a USB external HDD you can copy it over.

It looks like you just need the code for login.

My closest non-transfer friend is 6 hours away

Though I have optic fiber connection and I reach download speeds of +80mb/s on my PC, my PS4 hardly goes over 30mb/s for other games, also many people will be downloading at same time so speed will not be 'that fast' for everybody.

Mirra_Halfelven · June 2015

Really??? no pre-load code ???

You can buy the digital version of ESO off the PS store or the Xbox One store & start downloading RIGHT NOW!, but you're making us, the people who have been supporting you (some of us for over a year) wait till the day before release ....

Ya'know I wanna say this surprises me but, with all the other crap ZOS has pulled with the console release it really doesn't anymore

Might have to do with Microsoft and Sony rather then Zenimax themselfes though.

Peekachu99 · June 2015

No preload? Really? I doubt this is a Sony/ MS thing when you can preload almost everything these days.

Aerius_Sygale · June 2015

Aww, what the hell! T_T Stupid Sony, not allowing a pre-load. [snip]... Like I haven't waited long e-frickin'-nough... Starting that download the moment it hits midnight to turn to June 9th...

Fhaerron · June 2015

When you buy a game from Xbox or PSN store you get your CD-key (auto attached to your account) directly from either Xbox or PSN.

I think there is just a 'new problem' with the Codes Zenimax is trying to get to MS and Sony (the ones of account copy)

Again, this is what I think so I'm not 100% sure about it.

BigM · June 2015

WOW guys I have no idea what to say and for me that is really unusual.

OK WELCOME TO THE CLUB!

NewBlacksmurf · June 2015

I was asked to post here instead of my own thread:

Based on this:
We were suppose to be able to pre-download according to your published info. Is this another case of miss information by ZOS?

post from ZOS staff:

Players who preorder ESOTU through either the Xbox Marketplace or PlayStation Store will be able to pre-download the game prior to its June 9 release. Additionally, PC/Mac players who are eligible for and purchase the transfer to console will be able to pre-download. If you pre-ordered or purchase a copy of ESOTU for consoles from a retailer, you will not be able to pre-download. It's also worth noting that unlike the PC/Mac beta client, which was able to be updated on launch day to the live version, the beta client for consoles cannot be updated in this way; rather, players will require a fresh install / new client when the live version is available (either for pre-download or from a retail purchase). Hope this helps clarify!

May email:

I think the problem is that ZOS is sending them out as a MEDIA copy vs allowing Microsoft and Sony to send them out as an offer.

A way of covering up a big fail during the transfer they need to fix most likely
