Blackardin Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Whether or not this is a good move or not has yet to be seen, but it is pretty obvious this was a terrible PR move and more information on the amount of servers should have been given. http://www.swtor.com/support/helpcenter/5298 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stovokor Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 jeez some of you are either illiterate or just plain lazy to read dev tracker that has outlined how this was gonna happen in stages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigheadbrandon Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Thank you for that update. I have to say that, if indeed additional servers will be added in very short order, that a tremendous amount of bad customer relations, "publicity," and perhaps most importantly that intangible taste in people's mouths could have been avoided by simply explaining ahead of time that servers would be rolled out over the course of a few days. but they did though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorrdan Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 I am stuck on Mask of nihulus ****** low populated server and my character isn't eligible for transfer. My sub is over tonight, don't see the reason to renew it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Szzlstk Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Keep in mind that we're going to be updating this list with eligible servers on a regular basis. This just represents the first group of eligible servers. We're monitoring how well the service is currently handling the load and I'll have a more solid update for you folks later today, but you can take "regularly" to mean that it won't be a week or a month for the next update. Ok, so you're letting my low pop server be a free to move from server (Rakata Mind Prison).....why can't I/we choose where we want to go? And yes, not wise letting Fatman and JC be transfers to. (Those were already Heavy/Very Heavy...they should not be on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skolops Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 but they did though Source it, if that's the case. I've kept tabs on this and can't recall reading anything of the sort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slagpit Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 For the love of god!!!! I don't normally post on the forums because I understand that mmo's take time to develop and fine tune, but this is ridiculous that only 4 US servers are up for transfers currently. I woke up with such high hopes that i could transfer off Bondar Crystal this morning. Instead i have to hope that my server gets on the list before the days over so when i log on during prime hours tonight i have move then 15 people to play with. Thank You Bioware for yet another fail promise as it currently stands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benodach Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 The sky is not falling but I will say this....Fatman already has a queue at night after dinner. So if this is in fact one of the destination servers something has gone terribly wrong. I think the community was hoping to create more servers like Fatman with this process. No one was wanting Fatman to become unavailable during prime time as a result of this process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karabal Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 That's it Biofail. That's the straw that broke the camel's back congratulations on breaking the game beyond repair. Soooo many people will un-sub over this. I was going to re-sub today. Instead I'm going to delete all my characters so I no longer need to concern myself with this shower of ........

InnerPieces Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 (edited) It's really pathetic that you people can't even have a semblence of patience and appreciation that Bioware is even doing Transfers at all. *cough*paying customer*cough* Edited June 12, 2012 by InnerPieces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pantaro Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 throwing my hat in along with all the other sane and rational people,they did say GRADUAL server transfers......MEANING they will start slow and build up to more.Im sure most of the reasonable people will agree we all want this done right not half assed and if that means a little at a time than so be it.But by all means if you can do a better job than the people at Bioware maybe you should be there helping them do what they do.

amnie Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 And you can not post it before "transfer"? You always know how to disappoint ur players... they did. they repeatedly stated that transfers would START on tuesday. they never even remotely stated they would take care of 100+ servers on one day.

Blackardin Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Does anyone know just how low population these first origin servers have? That might make it possible for people to guesstimate the order of transfers... Of course, BioWare COULD do us all a favour and tell us that. Would be good to know if my republic characters should expect to wait a couple of days or two weeks - I mean, if it's closer to a couple of weeks than a couple of days I could still put stuff on GTN, I could keep things that I don't need right now in the mail... small things like that. http://www.torstatus.net/sanctum-of-the-exalted/trends/60d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramladon Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Fatman all ready one of the fullest servers in the game why are they transfering there? I thought the idea was to bring multiple servers to higher populations not ones that are all ready full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaisernick Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Fatman has decent population, I made an alt there and it was pretty packed, but I heard about transfers coming and quit playing him at level 13. that the problem fatman has a high population then may add more why not leave fatman as it is?

Josmoda Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Do we get a consolation prize if you loose our characters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JovethGonzalez Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 I also wanted to point out that this process was outlined in our community blog last week and in our main transfer thread here. Specifically: This process will be gradual and staged over time. Despite huge improvements being made to the Character Transfer Service by our server team, there are millions of characters to be moved and there is a limit to how many can be moved daily. We want your character to be transferred as quickly as possible, but we will need you to be patient as the process completes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frobalt Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Yeah, I even took a day off to be sure to transfer and hopefully be able to keep some of my character names. Stupid decision, why did I trust that this would be a happy day You took a day off just for the hope of keeping character names? Yes, that is a stupid decision. Especially since you could have just created a character on a server with the name you wanted then once you have transferred the one you want with that name, delete the duff character and 'rename' your main to the right name...simple.

Alericus Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Sigh...I dont know what Bioware is supposed to do..if they had done this on mass, posters would likely scream it was taking too long...and then if there was a disaster the QQ would be of bibical proportions. Transfers are here, relax and let the professional server staff do their job. I work IT and these guys are proceeding as they should. If you cant show patience at this point, you really need to find something else in your life to do thats more relaxing.....like knitting. I am personally surprised they are allowing trasfers to The Fatman so thats a treat for some players....as well I enjoy they patched another warzone exploit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
