    Legacy to none legacy servers [DEV PLEASE READ]

    Im not sure if this is the place to post this but its the best i could find.

    The info on the world transfer service is up again for the full time service and yet it is still no possible for legacy players to switch to none legacy worlds and there is still no mention of when this will become available. This is information i would be very glad to come by. SE can we get a round about date at least please?

    I would love to know this too, I am starting to get really ticked off over how silent they are about when we will be able to move. I'am tired of being stuck in this tiny little room full of so many people I would love to move to a low pop server.

    That's because before the game even launched Yoshi-p said himself that Legacy transfers would happen at about 6 months after the game is release. So they haven't been quite on it you just haven't paid much attention. There's also multiple threads on this.

    Multiple threads that had all been derailed by naysayers and their adherence to a time point that was preceded by 'maybe'. I remember that Live Letter, no definite date was given just a rough time frame. This does need more definitive attention, Legacy servers being the most populous of all the servers, especially in the NA/EU Data Center.

    Putting [DEVS PLEASE READ] in your topic title does not make them more likely to read it, in fact they have said in the past the opposite is true, so don't do it.

    Also, no response is needed. Transfering off legacy servers will be possible at which time SE has determined that the economies of legacy vs non legacy worls are more equalized. It is not a permanent restriction. Until then, if you're dying to be with friends, you should have had them transfer to your server when it was free.

    They will never 100% equalize, no, because every server's economy is slightly unique. However, over time, the gaps between them decrease as gil is taken out of the economy at a higher rate on more developed servers. As more players on non legacy servers reach level 50, things will balance out. The charts showing how many people are each level will look closer to identical each time they take a sample. The gap WILL shrink over time to the point where the likely impact of allowing transfers is negligible.

    The response isnt needed but it is WANTED by all of us wanting to get off these crowded legacy servers and be with our friends.
