I need server transfer now!

[ArkhamNative]

It seems like the people on Legacy servers have the biggest problems playing with friends because a lot of those servers were full right when the game came out and new players had trouble creating characters on them.

The legacy/v1 players started paying their first month of subscriptions mid-September. Worlds are still full. (Short queues during busy times is normal.) We know others are coming, and we know nobody is leaving. I hope SE takes this into consideration.

Legacy cannot transfer for like a year to the new servers...

I think it was estimated as "months", and many understood it to be around 6 months. (Long time, but not forever.)

Is there going to be a wait time between server transfers or will you be allow to move your data fairly easily each time you pay the transfer fee?

They seem to be patterning this after FFXI's world transfer service. That one has a 90-day cooldown between transfers.

Sorry. I may be confused. However, my question is if I created a totally new character at the launch of the game, and this character was made on a Legacy server, will I be able to move him to a non-legacy server? I never played 1.0 and I only made the character there because it was the only server actually open to make it on at the time. I just want to know if I am wasting my time continuing to work on him, and if I should just start leveling on the server I want to be on. Thank you to anyone who can answer this.

from what I under stand if you are on a legacy server you can only transfer another legacy server, 1.0 or a 2.0 character youre in the same boat

There is really no excuse for this. They have had a working transfer system since Beta. This is getting to be a damn joke. If everyone who is being affected by this could get all of their guild mates and friends to all freeze their accounts I bet this would happen in a heartbeat.

True. We know they have a working transfer system because Legacy players were able to transfer from Jap servers to US/EU servers. So why keep pushing back?

Can we PLEASE let legacy players transfer off legacy servers? Square, all you're doing is making legacy servers way more crowded. No, it WASN'T widely announced that I wouldn't be able to transfer off a legacy server, otherwise we would not have rolled here. Would a dev please respond to this? It's extremely unfair to us who never played 1.0. You've got a gil transfer cap anyway, and RMT bots have destroyed the economies of most worlds already. What exactly is the harm of legacy players transferring off legacy servers?

Greetings, everyone.

I’m happy to announce that the World Transfer Service will become available on October 15.

We are currently performing our final testing on the service in preparation for its launch, and as long as no major issues are discovered between now and tomorrow night, we will be launching the service according to schedule. In the event that an issue is discovered, there is a possibility we push it back a couple of days, so we appreciate your understanding if this were to happen.

We'll be announcing more details on the Lodestone very soon, but I wanted to give you all a heads up!

Awesome glad to hear it! Looking forward to getting to a server that is in the same continent as me.

Anyone down for making bets on the transfers working properly on the 15th? My money is on failure.

BTW - I really want the transfer since my significant other and I are on separate servers and we play in the house. Terrible.

so all you people who complain and complain and complain how you feel now patience obviously is not your virtues. granted it was dumb that they said mid September and it's starting a month later but hey was only one month.

Why is there a 12 hour delay in providing English translations? This was already announced in Japanese by the devs 11-12 hours prior to this posting. Are Americans always going to be riding in the back of the bus?

Lol dude just calm down. Even after they give a date people still complain. JUST RELAX. We got the transfer and I will be seeing all my friends next week

Question the first 5 days are suppose to be free transfer and characters from legacy server are not allowed to transfer for like six months, Do characters from legacy servers get a free transfer when they open in a few months?
