Why are there even server transfers

General Discussion
#1

As the title suggests; why the flying fck are there even transfers? Make them make new characters. I don’t know any other game where they transfered entire servers and closed their servers for 48 hours. This is just strange as fck to me, most other games will just have you create a new character on a new server and that’s it.

The only problem I see is that the fact that the TP system is broken and there is no way of transfering that account wide instead of server wide. Which again other games have done properly and have their In game currency system account bound.

There are some serious issues going on here; I bought all the DLC’s minus the recent pack 1 50% off because I was waiting to see improvement…

I am not so sure anymore.

Dungeon issues, Lag, Commander, Restrictions, no proper field boss limitations (You limit every other fcking thing might as well come up with something for this).

[COMPLETE] SA Server Transfer Notice: May 3-4, 2016

I know a couple of servers. They’re ALL private servers with backwater developer teams. :smiley:

because those servers simply did not exist in order for those players to choose to start on them. this is it.

if those servers HAD existed at the start, there would be no transfers.
but considering the size of the company, they had to start cautiously, and not chop up the community into too-small sections.

Haven’t you seen the crapton of threads whining about wanting new servers and wanting server transfers?

Actually , most games have had transfers at one point or offer some sort of server transfers, typically in the cash shop. I’ll just name a few off the top of my head that you may have heard of: Final Fantasy XI, World of Warcraft, and League of Legends. I know these aren’t HUGE titles, but I’m sure you may have heard of them at some point.

I don’t play LoL, but isn’t there just one game server?

#7

There are a myriad of local servers.

#8

Because they’re probably going to have a paid system to transfer people over eventually, and it will be automated.

Final Fantasy XIV already does this, because some servers are too full to accept new character creations.

#9

No, these games did not have those “features” when they first started. They were implemented later.

#10

Neither did Tree of Savior. What’s your point?

To back up what Vanic said, servers transfer usually took this much time, for less people. I remember the first server transfer on MapleStory, it took them a day. People abused it so much to make use of the market, that the maintenances also became pretty long. That was weekly. That made them remove it.

And as Vanic said, Tree of Savior didn’t have these server transfers when it first started either. If you have no solution to offer that doesn’t completely affect anyone in a bad way, this is just plain whining. Plus, it’s 24 hours. Get over it.

That’s actually pretty common to a game free transfer players when them open up a new server on a NEW region(its the third time I do this kind of transfer), well It’s common even on the same region. And sure, It sucks that’s a 24h maintance, I wonder if they could have delayed the EU and SEA servers to do them all at once, maybe it would be too hard? That said, You seems very harsh man, Do you really think thousands of people with who knows how many hours combined should just throw that away and start fresh if they want to play on proper ping and with their community? Even tough they paid and supported the game just like you did? Meh… You come here complaining about how “serious” issues this game have but does’nt seems to be disposed to spare a few justified hours of game time for the sake of your revelator fellows ;(

When other games transfer entire servers, they go down for 3+ days. Just 3 more hour, surely we can wait that long. :sunny:

#14

They didn’t put a login queue in place so everyone stacked to Kladpedia and Orsha and it was overcrowded…

I think what their trying to do now is balance out the server load before F2P launch, though im not sure if they plan on allowing newer teams to sign up on the current servers after the F2P launch, or if they plan on making a bunch of new servers

#15

I m really not a fan of allowing to let long player charakter to transfer into a fresh server / economy … but because this game had at the start not a clear distribution for their disired located server its probably the only choice …

Cosmetic Items you bought with TP(or anything you bought with TP), so that’s the base idea for the transfers I think. I myself have 2 characters overloaded with cosmetics.
I don’t think I would have a problem with leveling characters again if I could just send the stuff I got with TP to the new server(or any server). But since you can’t, that’s how it is…
