Cuppcake Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Greetings Bioware. Don't you think its about time we are able to copy our lvl 50 toons to the PTR so we can actually test lvl 50 content, pvp, gear and whatnot? Having to lvl a character up all the way again seems a bit redundant. We want to test stuff for you, please let us. Maybe then we can spot bugs and/or dodgy mechanics and provide you with feedback before you patch yet another bunch of bugs in to the game. Thank you for reading.

RodneyMmKay Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 ditto... Level a toon to 50Bug reportPay monthly sub Not a good list, Bioware, from my point of view. Plus, does any of this make much difference when we don't have any analysis tools yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaximusRex Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 A Dev Post recently stated they plan to allow us to copy our live characters to PTR, though there was no timeframe given. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzcorey Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Are you telling me you cant? Wow, this explains sooooo much. Might as well not have a PTR then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, this explains sooooo much. Might as well not have a PTR then. I see your point, but the PTR isn't necessarily there for balance (though it kinda should). It's more to make sure that it doesn't further break any of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guiken Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 They've been saying they are working on character transfer to ptr since launch, it's 2 months in and we're still unable to properly test high end content because of this. Imo, this needs to be a much higher priority than it seems to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kotogami Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Irony has it, they could also improve the testing done if they were to leave the test server running while the live servers go down on top of this. Gives people something to do if they are awake when servers are down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruhx Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Are test characters persistent, or do they wipe them at intervals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrionDammit Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 So how does it work then? You have a premade 50 available or you start at level 1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comtyra Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Yeah well, at this rate "we plan to allow character copy" probably means sometime next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xsmspiffs Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Are test characters persistent, or do they wipe them at intervals? Persistent, but no promise that there will never be a wipe (but strongly implied that it'll never happen). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
