World Transfer fees?

[Basahra]

I thought I saw something about the fee at the bottom of the "Veteran Reward System" news article on the Lodestone page, but I can't seem to find the Veteran Reward System news topic anymore. hah.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who saw this. I personally think they took it down, because they are hopefully planning to make at LEAST the first World Transfer Application period a free one, and considering the information about the Veteran Reward System had a statement that there is a fee, they couldn't leave it up . But that's just a theory

Charging to transfer characters from one server to another is an old system of mmorpgs which should be done away with, we already pay a monthly fee. Its just greed. They can simply design a method that allows everyone to pick which server to login with their characters each time or set a default server. Right now however, it would probably take a lot of work to transition to that. But really new mmorpgs these days should strive to that and design their games with that feature involved.

I don't care the reasons but I want to go to another less populated server. so free world transferfor all!!! xD

Unfortunately, the way I see it. They will compensate everyone with 1 free character transfer. Although, what good does that do to people that were locked out.

Not trying to be rude or insensitive to your frustrations, however I'm not seeing the people getting locked out as a big deal. They signed the DOS and although the situation really sucks (I'm in the same boat), continuing to complain about something that SE is actually addressing and trying to fix however slow it they are at doing so doesn't help the situation. But your point about 1st transfer free being one type of compensation for the mishaps does sound like a good plan that SE should consider.

Even if they do provide World Transfers, some people (like myself) wouldn't be able to use them because they have a Legacy/1.0 character and cannot transfer to a new server. I wanted my gf to play on my server with me and some of our old friends from XI, but you can't make new characters on it anymore so I told her to think about playing on a completely new server and we'll make new friends. I'll miss my Legacy choco...but it'll be more fun playing with her. Not looking forward to making a new character but it is what it is.
