A TESO question....

Post » Tue Sep 22, 2015 1:43 pm

I would post this in the TESO forums but apparently I need to be invited to do so. So is there still no word on a release date for the console versions of TESO? Back in June they said they need to delay it for about another 6 months (which I respect because I'd rather play a flawless game than a broken one, i.e. AC: Unity) and it's almost been about 6 months and I've been kind of out of the loop on these forums since June. Sites like gamespot and ign both say December 2014. Am I missing something or have they not updated us about the console versions yet?

I found an article written today that says the console versions are still scheduled for 2014: http://www.ecumenicalnews.com/article/elder-scrolls-online-release-date-for-ps4-xbox-one-confirmed-for-december-27223

Sweet deal! Hope it's not a fake article. I mean if that is the case, don't you think we'd have a date by now? Maybe I'm just impatient and just don't realize it

...that article and others are fake and outdated. Just recycled. But seems that in this forum the information arrives months later. But well if you are happy thinking that it will be released in the next 5 week,its ok.

They've not updated the date as far as I'm aware, but they have said multiple times that they are still working on it. Q1 2015 would be my guess.

Actually yes, that it won't be released in december. That nor Sony, nor Microsoft are advertising the game and there are some problems regarding the subscription model from the console and teso(I guess you know xbox users already pay a fee to play online) and that the console release from teso is now on hold, it seems.
That the pc users are beta testing the game, and the game won't be released in console until ZOS gets the game to... lets say a little bit more normal than this whole massive amount of bugs that the game has (even some from beta days).
In fact pc gamers are betatesting and paying the game. There won't be a console release until they fix all these critical problems, it would be a suicide. Then you have the guilds, justice system, etc, etc...it is normal to think they will launch the console game with those things added and working. Console users are not gonna waste their time and money. Bad press, bad support, official forums plenty of people getting mad, the whole internet badmouthing about this game, patches that destroy fixes from previous patches, promises that never happen...for more info: official forum search button.
I can tell you that my observations (well, mine and from a lot of other people that actually knows how TESO is behaving) are better than the one in that article.

To the people waiting for a TESO console release, i would say: don't hold your breath.

My opinion? if TESO console release ever happen, it will be mid-fall 2015. But a lot of things can happen in the meantime and maybe they are necessary to have a console release, like going f2p.

Again: they have stated multiple times that they are still actively working on it.
