    All we know is it's in October. It's also a multipart event, and the first two phases will be live at some point after U47 releases.

    I'm expecting it'll be planned like in-game events where the start time will be unified across all servers.

    Yeah I know console gets the patches at a different time than PC, but I wouldn't assume the event will be tied to those dates. Usually events are on all platforms at the same time. I guess we'll see.

    We will have more info on the Writhing Wall event next month. But to answer the main question, PC and console will start at the same time. So no two week delay between platforms.

    Sorry, what do you mean "win"? Is ZOS making a contest out of which platform "completes" it first? Because if so, wow, I didn't think this ridiculous event could get worse.

    I dont know which live it was but I remember Rich Lambert said "which server completes it first" when talking about taking down the Wall.

    A competition between servers would be really fun and ground breaking for Eso.

    I have no clue about how the writhing wall event will be so I cant say if its stupid or not, but new stuff in this game is needed badly and writhing Wall event sounds interesting.

    why even expect an event to start at different times for PC and consoles? it's not an update, events always start the same time on all 3 platforms.

    I wonder how the timing of the wall coming down will work. What if it’s 3 am my time? I would miss it.

    I mean, can you even predict when it will happen?

    We will have guidance to make sure everyone is aware of their server timing for this. This should be outlined in info shared next month.

    Because PC gets everything new added to this game 2 weeks before Console so therefore an new Event type like this in a new season would be higly expected to release on PC first "since u47 is released 2 weeks before on PC"

    The release of new content might be obvious for PC players but as a console player where you are put second by Zos its not obvious how stuff will be.

    This is exactly right, I believe. It doesn't seem tied to any update, but an event. They will flip the switch at the time it starts and bing bang boom.

    Edit. Kevin already answered lol.

    i am a console player so i am very aware Updates release 2 weeks later on consoles yes.
    the Writhing Wall event is not an update and starts in October, at least a month after update 47 releases.

    All past events started on all platforms at the same time. this post is still confusing and Kevin confirmed that the event starts at the same time for all platforms.

    PC EU will win because it has the most players, unless the event is tailored around different metrics / has some fake numbers involved.
