wesleyhobhjs Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Hey guys, Some of you will start to notice the APAC servers becoming visibly locked. This is one of the first steps towards opening free transfers. We are actively working on getting transfers up and running as I type this. I will give you updates as I have them. -eric Dont tell me you need another week to get this transfer up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sturgess Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Sweet, can you post a link to your MMO? I would like to give it a try. MMO? Hardly. Nothing I've said is MMO specific. Online product with millions (yes, really) of users? Sure. http://au.yahoo.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaosSmuggler Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 (edited) Define visibly locked? On the Select Server screen, under Population, it says LOCKED and is grayed out. And it has a little lock in front of its name. Edited June 4, 2013 by ChaosSmuggler Forgot something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamuelAU Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 On the Select Server screen, under Population, it says LOCKED and is grayed out. Thanks for the follow up. Hopefully transfers aren't delayed by much if users are becoming locked from playing their characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully transfers aren't delayed by much if users are becoming locked from playing their characters. Hey Samuel, Actually, for a player who currently plays on an APAC server, there is no effect. You can still play your current characters and even make new ones! What the lock does is stop players who do not have characters on APAC servers at all, from making new ones. Again, if you're an APAC player who plays on an APAC server, this has no effect on your ability to play. -eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draloch Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 (edited) Ok, I'm looking to request my transfers but I can't figure out how to do it. Anyone know? Edit: Ok I went back to the last page and read up. Darn... I was looking forward to getting over to Harbinger.

I'd like to stay on my server until the last possible minute then decide if I want to continue with the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osokmaverick Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Transferred all my characters, two got forced name changed to gibberish names and not flagged for a rename. Well done, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sitholat Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Out of my six toons on the MDN server I have four that are locked. I did use those four toons on the PTS. Would be nice if could transfer these. Same here, I have 6 locked, only 2 were successfully copied to the PTS though, the others failed to copy. This was some time ago too, more than the 72 hours stated in the conditions for transfers.

sabbey Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 (edited) I have four that are locked, but noticed I was only able to rename one so far of those that did transfer while the others seem to be logging in without being able to rename them first.
