Characters stuck in other realms

So, I am playing on Gehennas. I had other characters from P1 on other servers. I am only playing on Gehennas but have 3 lvl 80’s on other realms I can’t even pay to transfer to Gehennas? Can you just make it so you can transfer characters from other servers by PAYING (yes I want to give you money since that’s all that you understand), if you have a lvl 80 character on that realm already? I think it doesn’t take a genius to realise that this would be good for both players and Blizzard Activision pockets.

Thank you for your time not reading.

Same thing on a much smaller pop like Pyrewood Village. It’s depressing.

I don’t think the transfer system can take into account a character’s level on the target realm.

Just assign some underpaid intern to code it in then? It’s literally a check that is probably 2 lines of code on their transfer logic.

Give me Dark Matter on my hunter and I’ll do it.

Same, I have 28 level 80 druids with bags filled with ores and herbs that were busy bot… manually farming mats on dead realms and I can’t bring them to Gehennas to sell all those items and then sell the gol… I mean, bask in my glory?

Two minutes to code 6 months to check.

Kind of makes you think they don’t want you to move on purpose. If they did then they would activate it.

You are trying to save something that can’t even be saved LMAO. Just let people play the game.

You mistyped “just let people RMT” there.

… and seven broken functionalities once it is released.

This whole locked thing is just blatantly to force you to not reuse your old chars, and re-level new ones (read pay more monthly fees).

I am already playing in Gehennas. Transferring my old chars there is 0 extra stress on the servers. And checking if I already have chars in a server before allowing me to transfer there should be 2 lines of code. If it’s not, there are several people unfit for their job in there.

But as I said, the issue is not developer-related. This is a blatant sales-related decision.

If you think this is the way to fight RMT man, I feel sorry for whatever you think about everything else.

It’s… something. Definitely far from the optimal solution, but better than nothing at all.

That makes no sense. You have to pay to play Wrath anyway so you don’t pay more.

Don’t you think if it was sales related they would allow you to transfer as it makes them more money? But I agree, it is a decision they have made not to allow some transfers.

Of course you do. Forced to start on a new server, you play the extra time to get from 1 to 70 all over again. That’s 1-2 months extra before you are even able to step into wrath. The DK would make it kinda ok, if you enjoy playing one. But also see below

They prefer it if you play from the start all over again. It’s the same money more or less, but re-leveling a character creates extra new commitment to it. And strengthens the sunken cost fallacy perception in the player because you have spent time on top of money.

So much rubbish in one post.

Some realms are full and that is why you cannot transfer to them, others were full and they are slow in opening them up.

16

Rubbish? I am already playing in Gehennas. Full or not. Transferring an extra character would have 0 impact on server load

And now you are being selfish.

If they opened it up then so many people would move there are there would be queues again.

Even if they opened it up for people with characters there then players that wouldn’t play there would transfer there.
