    So the title of this article specifically states: “ WHY CAN’T PS4 PLAYERS PRE-PURCHASE GREYMOOR?“ and yet we aren’t given any reasoning on why we can’t preorder it just that we can order it day of.

    - Why can’t PS4 players preorder? This seems to be the one question that is constantly being avoided on answering.
    - How big is this download going to be and will PS4 players actually get a chance to play it day of since we can’t preorder and start the download immediately upon availability?

    As a PS4 player I want to know if this is what we can expect for all releases moving forward? Is it Playstation that is preventing the ability to preorder?

    Suggestion: Make our PS4 accounts transferable to a different platform (like PC) so we switch to platforms that actually support the game. I’d move to PC if it wasn’t for loosing out on 5 years of gameplay/character building.

    The reason why ps4 cant pre purchase is because of a SONY vs ZOS issue. Im not sure on the exact details, but SONY has some terms of service stuff that doesnt agree with ZOS stuff, so they are stuck at this kind of cross roads where this is the only agreement they seem to have come up with. So for now, ull still have the option of getting the game with the collectibles as if u pre ordered, but cannot actually pre get the game. Sucks that it has to be this way, but until SONY and ZOS can work things out this is how its gunna be it seems.

    I bet it has to do with the refunds Sony dished out over last year chapter after players complained enough to them about ZoS. Because of this, it is easier just to give the pre-order items with regular purchases because Sony does not provide refunds for games at regular purchase but does for pre-orders.

    I would do the same. I’ve put way too much into my main that it would be exhausting to start anew on PC.

    Two weeks of availability for the exclusive pre-order items, when everyone else has had literally months to pre-order BEFORE the world went to garbage with COVID-19 and a bunch of people lost their income.

    That's actually pretty mean-spirited, I think.

    Just to hit on this point a little further, the preorder bonuses end on the Tuesday and unfortunately the final Friday of the month, when a lot of people will actually be getting some pay, is three days after the cut off date. Can we please get just a handful of days extension to the offer to help out those in this situation?

    That is a very good point.

    Most people get paid at the end of each month...so the pre-order bonus should run to 5th July to be fair to those that don't have the money before the end of June payday

    For the first time. I won’t be buying it right away. I just don’t trust that any of the issues will be fixed. Block rendering stuck to my face 24/7 will probably still be there for example. Zone looks small, story line looks weak and gameplay issues will still be there. No point throwing good money away. Just my two cents.

    I would actually prefer it, if ZOS made the pre-order bonuses available in the Crown Store for a certain time - either as a package or each one individually. With the state the game is in right now, I just don't see myself buying Greymoor in the near future, but I would have really loved to get the sacrificial pocket mammoth. I know, I know, it's just a pet, but I just find these little guys so cute and never had a chance to buy one from the Crown Store since they were available before I played ESO. I would happily give ZOS money to buy one... but not if that involves buying the whole chapter at this particular point in time.
    This poor little Bosmer stealth passive had passionate friends and a big loving family!

    So maintenance ends at 5am June 10. Can we start Greymoor then or is it 10am. Can we purchase Greymoor at 12am June 10th?

    Nope, Zos wanted to make a political statement, and to do that they had to punish one (large) side of their playerbase.

    You can buy and play this game right now. What you can't do is access the new area until tomorrow morning.

    No PS4 codes on Amazon either, but Xbox codes are on Amazon.
    I realize it won't play before the 10th but you would think they would updated the store the day before.

    I thought it was stated as only being available from the 10th? They did remove Elsweyr from the PS store either today or yesterday though.

    You are wrong on that. It is not in the PS4 store now.

    And of course downloading the update waits until I get back to my PS4. It couldn't download while in rest mode as I have it set to do....

    (That is not an ESO problem, but it is sure annoying.)

    Not that I could play even if I did have the download since it is maintenance time. At least I got my daily riding items for my 2 new characters earlier.

    It's available to download now, if you left it in rest mode, you can download a theme from the playstation app to trigger the update.

    Available to download yeah, but it's still not available for purchase because reasons. Wonder if all future chapter releases are going to be this out of wack on ps4.
