Dev Post EricMusco Posted May 17, 2016 Dev Post Share Posted May 17, 2016 Hey folks, As Ben mentioned in his earlier forum post, we definitely wanted to allow Guilds and players time to organize themselves within the previous Character Transfer sale. With that in mind, we are going to be introducing one more sale period before they revert to their new price of 1,000 Cartel Coins (1,500 for Regional). Here are the sale details: When: Thursday, May 26th – Sunday, June 5th What: Character transfers (not including Regional) will be 90 Cartel Coins Where: Make sure that you are logged into swtor.com and go here. Thanks everyone. Spread the word! -eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know of about 10 people who will re sub to transfer toons and start playing this game again. You need to make this more public than asking people like me to spread the word. A lot of these people I have no way to contact outside of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best regards Kage I can almost bet that you are going to have to start over as they probably don't have a way to transfer guild and guild property intact. You have to disband and start from the beginning on a new server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players have spent an enormous amount of time and credits on their guild ships, please please please allow Guild Ships to XFER!!! You do understand that all they are doing is lowering the price to the promotional discount of 90cc, right? And for a limited time only, with firm start and end dates this time.

ariasfel Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 (edited) Yeah we've got people out of the country. We're not abandoning them to a dead server. Come up with a more permanent solution please. Really though, I appreciate the advance notice this time. It's just not the right solution for us. Edited May 17, 2016 by ariasfel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be part of the solution.... for your 10 beloved alleged acquaintances. I know at least 10 people who quit because of POT5 being completely dead. If they were to receive an email explaining 90CC for transfers they would resub and transfer. What's so hard to figure out about that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know if I had people I knew that unsub because of transfers I would contact them myself to let them know. I wouldn't wait on a company to do that if I really cared about them.

DanNV Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Thank you Eric. Glad to hear there is a response on this. It would still be good to give a way to transfer guild assets. There is validity to complaints about the time and effort that goes into acquiring them as well as the problems with doing group content on servers which are now ghost towns. For reference, I started on Lord Ieldis (sp?) and remember what it was like prior to server mergers when there was no one on fleet, only a handful of people on any particular planet and trying to do group content. It just couldn't be done. That issue puts some guilds on a hard place of deciding to either abandon everything and try to start over or stay nad have no one to do anything with.
