It's kind of difficult to pretend it's a new game when you've done some of the zones 4 times already. It's more like work to relevel a new character and abandon the ones I'm already attached to. I have very limited free time. I'm not going to spend it doing something I don't enjoy. I quit the game because it doesn't look like this issue is a priority for BW (and yes I did see the post about transfers over a month ago and their 1 line response to a question at PAX). It does not appear that there will be a fix anytime in the near future.

Suit yourself. I'm having fun leveling a new toon on Shadow Hand. 1st time Republic. I would not have leveled 4 toons, same empire and same dead server. I know better.

would be nice if once a week you could transfer your characters/legacy to a select group of servers.For instance take 8 low servers and give the subscribers 3 choices to move to. No transactions to keep track of. If you move to a server you dont like or if it has a loss of subscribers you can just move to another next week.Have a interface option on the main character select screen to make it easy for people to use and know that it is available. Use the unpopulated servers for free trial accounts, when they decide to pay they can move

just unsubbed today because of server population issues spoiling the game for me. That's too bad because I really enjoyed this game when there were enough people to pvp with. I've got other single player games to play until this one addresses the issue.


as for transfers, it can wipe my legacy.. at least the game would be playable again.

I wish the players would read the information the Developers have provided.

1. Character transfers: End of April for Asia, later for other regions.
2. Server mergers: Not likely to happen, per the Devs.

If they offered free transfers off of lower pop servers, everyone would up and transfer to an all ready heavier server....emptying one and potentially over crowding another.
I don't see many people wanting to leave a fully functional server to go join a dying one.

Server transfers would be great but then it raises some questions ( for me anyway ) :

- Will it be free ?

- If not then i would have to pay for 7 character transfers if i don't want to loose my legacy
or maybe they will implement a more expensive transfer for all your legacy at once,
if it's so then how expensive would it be, this is EA we're talking about after all.

- Is this why they don't wan't to do server merges, so they can milk us for every dime with server transfers, again EA.

Just wondering...
