PS3 > Ps4 Transfer Query

[Kaze3434]

you will want to have your ps3 on hand to transfer gear sets and such. after you do the upgrade via mogstation, you are pretty much set and can get your ps4 version

Just remember also that your character creation saves will not get trasfered.
At least mine didn't at the start of the year when I upgraded.

No - you don't need to have PS3 at the time of migration ...

Simply use the "Transfer Character Data PS3 -> PS4" option in the launcher page on your PS3 before you'll get rid of it - this will upload locally stored data to server and once you'll get the PS4 and upgrade the game use the same button to retrieve the data at PS4. Just remember that you can transfer only 8 characters at one go so if you have more than that you'll not be able to transfer remaining one without having PS3. It will select 8 most recently played ones so you can "choose" by login to each of those briefly you want to transfer.

Awesome guys, thanks for the input.
I guess I'll just click the transfer button on the log-in screen on my PS3 and take care of all that the day I decide to trade-in for the PS4. Do I also need to do anything on Mogstation from my laptop, or will it all be done right from my PS3?
And do the gear sets/macros really transfer, or will I have to re-do those? Because that is a huge minus in my book having everything @50...what a pain in the arse that would be ._.#
