[I preferred a "dead" server]

And then theres the "why only 1 server" issue. i have charactors on 4 servers tagged to transfer....all to the same server! 1. they all wont fit. 2. why do i not get a couple of choices? If i end up in a Sardie can server (god i love that name) may be time to move on til they give us more options.

[I preferred a "dead" server]

I always wonder when I see posts like this (and the OP), would you have quit by now if subscriptions hadn't plummeted or had even continued to grow and the dead server you play on now had instead always had the expected population?

 

As mater of fact yes,as the server pop dropped it was more fun to play . The game is fun and we are both fans of the KOTOT timeline. But after reaching 50 on a few charactors the non class generic missions are a bit of a grind but we still have fun with the story lines we have not done yet, If he still had to run "Ring around the Glowie" all the time etc we would have left a while ago. We play to have fun not to get frustrated camping mission items.

[Enough dresh in finder groups]

I agree with the OP, thats why Wifey and I now only team together.

[I preferred a "dead" server]

This is why Wifey and I have not transfered servers,dont want to transfer servers and will wait until they force us over. At that point we will have to reevaluate our subs. We play because we love Star Wars, not to play "ring around the glowie" or have people jump into my AOE so i go green and they kill me as a group. (should not be able to go into PvP mode one a PvE server anyway)

[server transfer/forced name change is not fair to long-term players....]

So i have 17 charactors on 5 servers and they say i have to merge them all to the same server,that sucks. 1. they wont all fit.( yes they say they wont delet toons but wont say what will happen to the 9 left over) 2. the server is usually heavy or very heavy,and on the weekend evenings is usually full. I like my low pop server,and the names i dont want to have to change.

[SINGLE PLAYER, OFFLINE mode, please.]

I agree with the OP, Wifey and I play because we are fans of Star Wars, We play on our low pop server because we dont have a stand alone version(and kotor 3 never happened). Now i have to move to a busy server ? I moved 1 charactor to see what happens, now i have to play Ring around the glowie and hope i get it before the othe half a dozen folks standing around waiting, Black Hole is now a joke with the slow respawn rates. Stand alone would be great, next best thing as stated by others is my low pop server,so i wont move, but that to is going to change,and not by choice.

[Dailies are impossible]

So all the guys that were whining for server merge...How does that cake taste? You do still have it, right?

woot! Wifey and i play because we are fans of Star Wars not fans of teaming. So leave my low pop server alone please,i tried 1 merge,and your right dailies are dang near impossible there.

[Character Transfers - Multiple Characters]

Hi folks,

 

Just wanted to hop on here to let you all know that at no point will we be deleting your characters later this summer when we automatically move any remaining characters from origin servers onto designated destination servers. More details about how this will work out will be forthcoming, but I can assure you that automatic character deletion is not going to happen for this upcoming move.

 

Thanks everyone!

 

Then tell me what happens to all my charactors left over after i move the 8 im allowed to the ONE server i was given? Why dont i get a couple of choices? Because as you can see below they wont all fit!

 

Namadii Corridor to The Harbinger 4 characters The Jekk'Jekk Tarr to The Harbinger 1 character Vornskr to The Harbinger 2 characters Zaalbar to The Harbinger 2 characters Krath to The Harbinger 7 characters Space Slug to The Harbinger 3 characters Kaiburr Crystal to The Harbinger 1 character Wall of Light to The Harbinger 2 characters

But the Helmits make such a good Drum set!

[Character Transfer, Server Populations, and You (Part II)]

Really,try the Black Hole. besides my main issue is why i am only allowed 1 server to transfer to? that sucks!

and what happens to the ones that dont fit? flushed down the toilet like a dead Gold Fish?

[Save my server]

Why am i only offered 1 server to transfer too? this sucks!

they wont all fit!

[Character Transfer, Server Populations, and You (Part II)]

So im going to lose 9 charactors. that sucks bilge water. I have 17 charactors on 5 servers that are on the "free transfer" list,but all of them are set to go to the same server, So i assume after my 8 slots are full the rest go bye bye. Why am i not able to have a couple choices of servers to transfer too? and that ones always "very Heavy " or "full". I dont want to stand around with 10 other people waiting on the same 6 or 7 crates we need for a mission because they only respawn every 5 min or so.

He is an evil l'il dude too. he has a remote he activates that dumps you out of the balloon just before you get to the other end of the ride!

[Voluntary Server Transfers are more than just a polite recommendation:]

I really regret investing so much in this game. Not so much the money, but the time. So, I logged in after a bit of an absence. My server is a ghost town because everyone left. I decided to move too. Now, I have to rename all my character, and the new server is over-populated.

 

Really upsetting.

 

I agree,this "you only get 1 server option" is lousy, first off i have over 8 toons they say can transfer so kiss the rest off? so i loose 9 charactors,because i have 17 that get the free server transfer and only 1 server to go too. at least give as a couple choices dang it.

[Character Transfers - Multiple Characters]

So the 3 BH's i have on 3 servers that you say i can transfer from will all be moved to 1 server, WHY do i not get a choice of a couple servers? because as of now all my server transfers(5 Servers) all can only got to 1 new server.

and the answer i recieved from support is.........

 

"We understand that you wish to transfer your character to a destination server that has not been assigned to your origin server. We regret to say that this option is not a part of the initial Character Transfer Service. Characters on a specific group of origin servers will only be able to transfer to specific individual destination servers at the moment."

[What happens if you DON'T transfer?]

They need to give us choices then, i have charactors on 5 servers they want to give me a tranfer for, but they only give me 1 choice. well geeewiz, First off they all wont fit , Second why the heck would i want to have 2 or 3 of the same type charactor on the same server? just give me a couple choices,is that so hard? YES! according to the response i got from support today:

 

"We understand that you wish to transfer your character to a destination server that has not been assigned to your origin server. We regret to say that this option is not a part of the initial Character Transfer Service. Characters on a specific group of origin servers will only be able to transfer to specific individual destination servers at the moment"

[Voluntary Server Transfers are more than just a polite recommendation:]

transfer is ok,my problem is the server picked for me to transfer too is full and im not given another option

[Earn Rewards for Free Character Transfers]

I cant transfer if i wanted to,all the servers they list for me say full. so my choices are possible waiting times to log in on full servers and waiting in line to get the same mob i need that 4 other people are also waiting for, or a planet all to l'il ole me? geeeeeeez

[Why I won't transfer servers - Character Attachment]

Checked the list,all the servers they offer me say full. Cant transfer if i wanted to. I think its a Sith plot!

[Punishing the solo player]

I in part agree with the OP, more so in end content though.I got to 50 mostly solo but did need help a couple of times. Boss's should scale to team size not be 1 size fits all. As for getting help,ive tried that too. Was on Voss for 3 days only 3 other people on,sometimes 4. when on Corellia average was 6 or 7, asked for help a few time and finally got one person to help me. igave up on my 50 when after way to many attempts to beat a Boss with 65k hit points and a bucketload of credits repairing my armor i said enough. made finally getting to 50 go from great to just ok. in the higher levels my server (Krath) does not have lots of players it seems on the high levels,and all i see is LFG heroic2 or Heroic4,but ask for help on a Boss and you hear Crickets.
