Server Transfer Tickets

[Feuerbach]

Why its gone? Some ppl still need this

Thought they ran out yesterday. They wanted you to pay for them in store.
And not all servers were able to transfer to or from anyways.

Should've told your friend to move to EA server then. EA players having a big advantage going to normal servers isn't fair to anyone.

They really screwed this up.
I'm not at EA player, was playing on a non-EA server. Was moved to the server transfer map. Which is there to force EA players to go back to their EA Servers. And I have no server ticket.

So not only am I being forced to change servers when I shouldn't. They didn't even give me the free ticket to do so. hell no.

Sorry for my aggressive language, but are they ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ serious? Now a server ticket change costs 750 pay currency (lucent?) for me in the ingame store (that's about 5-10 € upwards, if I haven't made a mistake) I just looked in the game. Yes, it was known that the free server change tickets will expire, but it came to that you could hardly change, because many EA servers were locked full, or the character creation was partially locked until the days! Unbelievable rip-off Sry... why don't they make it so that everyone gets 1 ticket for free every week or every 2–3 weeks, that would be player a friendly service

Because server transfers aren't about you playing with your friends, they're a way to spread out the population early on. That's why you're so limited in how you can transfer and to where. If they wanted you to play with friends, they'd let you go to their servers. Instead, they want you to move from High activity servers to Low activity servers to give each one a fair chance, locking the ones that they've decided have enough people. You were granted two free moves in case you didn't like the server you were on for any reason to facilitate a smooth launch and encourage people to spread out and now it's over. Now it becomes a convenience you pay for. Want to play with your friends? That's a convenience. There's a fee for that. There doesn't have to be, but they will monetize any service they can. If they could charge us Lucent just for teleporting without making everyone quit, they would do that too. When I pay my online banking bill, it's free if I use my bank account. But if I use my credit card? There's a convenience fee of $3.95 -- there doesn't have to be, and that's more than the credit card even charges for the service, but none of that matters in business.

You're right, no question, but the price is too high for a server change and in the long run it puts players off, and they leave the game. And let's be honest, Amazon or NCSoft wouldn't go under if they gave every player 1 server ticket for free every 2 weeks as an example (keyword: player-friendly customer service). The bad thing is that you don't seem to be able to switch to your friends without paying, if I'm not mistaken.

It wasn't even possible to transfer from normal server to EA the first 10 days it just didnt work and after that they just flat out took the option away .

Since you can only transfer 1 time every 30 days, getting 1 server ticket every 2 weeks would be a waste.

You can always make your 2nd character for your account on friend's server and just play with them there.

My main problem or concern was mainly that they now want 750 lucent in the game store for such a server change ticket, which is far too expensive and somewhere a cheek.

I have 2 character on the same server but i have maybe another easy fix for me found :) But when i understand you right maybe i delete 1 character on this server than i have one free again and than i can go on another server right?

It might take 24 hours from time you delete until you can make a new one with their recent patch notes.

And you can still play on the old toon and sell stuff...the lucents are account bound.
So you can play one 1 server and sell items, and use those coins on the other server to get ahead start. Hope that helps.
