Dibdabs Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 (edited) It's a good plan for the game, overall, but personally I'm not bothered about being on a quiet server. I like having mission areas, mobs and resources to myself. Edited June 11, 2012 by Dibdabs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galbatorrix Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 My main is on Jedi Covenant... so, this won't affect me either way. I am excited that more of you will be able to play the way I have always played though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJWyler Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 It all depends on the details. I am excited that I will be able to transfer at some point in the future, but I may have to wait longer than others depending on what the details turn out to be.

Urael Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 (edited) Excited? No, way to cynical for that at this point. I have watched Shadown Hand slowly die. Am I "hopeful"? Ok a little hope does shine thru my cynicism but, I am more of a wait and see. Which after all is the only thing we can do. But, hey everything will happen soon .

Celacia Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 If my server is a destination server, then yes, I am excited. If not, then no, I am kind of horrified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudasMagnus Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Ready to have an MMO experience after playing for over 2 months with a dead server. So ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Ravenhurst Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 super excited! Doing transfer, then two days left of gametime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izorii Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 I would have thought I would have heard more by now, I can only assume I am on a server which will not be transfering. I also assume these are a first step and the next will be server mergers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparklehorse Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Looking forward to it. I hope they put the "list" up tonight and don't wait until tomorrow. Either way this is the first step in what we can all hope will be a huge leap forward into the future of this game. Combine large, healthy, servers with a good group finder and suddenly we have a triple-A title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterKayote Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Meh, Juyo will more than likely be a destination server so we should be getting a nice boost to our fleet action. Hopefully ill be able to consolidate my old characters but thats a very low chance, ATM. Not really expecting anythimg new. Only thing im really looking forward to is the Cathar, but that won't be for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captiosus Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Excited? No. This is the exact same, laughable, original "transfer" system Blizzard used back in classic WoW. The conditions are identical to Blizzard's system circa 2006: They determine the source and destination servers, they arbitrarily determine the numbers on when to stop allowing transfers, and they're locking transfers between server types. It didn't work very well in addressing problems back then and it isn't going to work well now. All this does is pave the way for paid transfers.

Kragnor Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Well if my server is a Destination server, than absolutely. If not, than no, I am not excited. Not looking forward to logging on and finding out my pre launch server is a tranfer from server, not a transfer to server. As well, being a guild leader increases my warriness of transferring an entire guild, gbank, etc. and hoping we get to keep our name, and having to redo all the ranks, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgelling Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 (edited) Excited? Absolutely! While I still have a bit of paid game time I'll check the forums every so often at work. It should be funny to see the predictable complaints from everyone hoping to transfer to The Fatman or Jedi Covenant from Trash Server #37 - and are instead consolidated on Trash Server #59. When they find it's not an entirely new game and people still don't want to queue all that often - or better yet, aren't included in the first round of transfers at all - the QQ should be crazy.

This isn't really and never was a "transfer." Just look at it for what it really is: an "optional server merge." The point of this is purely consolidation to address server populations. Nothing more.

discosoc Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 http://www.swtor.com/blog/character-transfer-server-populations-and-you I am. I just wish we had more info on server lists and groups, regarding Origin & Destination servers, etc. That bugs me as well, although it could be to prevent people from rushing to create alts on the servers to reserve names.
