Server/Account Transfer ....

General Discussion Started Last reply 26 posts
nice find, it looks like it could quite possibly be server transfers ^^
I will translate it.

Its about transferring characters from one account you have to another account you own.

Transfers take one week, from Wed to Wed. Guess thats the day they have their servers down.

It costs 19,800 won. Doesn't seem to be free. (thats 21.00US)

Lots of information on cellphones.

There is a service to change the gender of a character. That's 10.00US.

Name change service for 21.00US.

All of these can only be done once every 5 months it seems.
Wow, 21$? When game is obtainable for 19.90$ in some e-shops?

could it be that it works similiar like clan leadership transfer .... always done during maintance?
Just because they offer this in Korea does not mean that they will offer it on the NA servers. They have about 4 times as many servers as we do.

if you have 2 nobless on 1 account you wouldnt care about the price
Lets face it, it's not SERVER Transfer, what they talk about is, ACCONT TRANSFER.

I yet to see indication of any server transfer. The service they have is to transfer chars between accounts of yours.

remember the poll from mistryl awhile ago? (if not click here (http://boards.lineage2.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Board=general&Number=722121))
imho ncsoft na just wanted to know what the na community is thinking about those services ....

That poll was about name change and gender change. Not about server or account transfers.

As I recall, they also asked what we thought about adding GameGuard... :)

Didn't everyone say that they loved GameGuard and they wouldn't rest until it was implemented world-wide in L2? And that the GG errors are things that they absolutely WOULD NOT do without, as they add spice and flavor to the game?

I know better than to argue with female memory so, yeah, I guess that's how it went down... :eek:
I don't know why its so expensive. I just converted the amounts into USD on a website.
What does it mean "your accounts"? Are those accounts that you have under your common playNC account? Am I screwed if I have different playNC accounts?

That's true, though they did say they were also thinking of other services, just that they wanted our opinion of the name and sex change.
AFAIK:

We've had a lot of feedback on server transfers already. We still welcome the discussion (in another thread please), but we'd like to hear what you think about these two possible offerings.


My understanding:
They are quite fond of what people think about transfers, but were not sure about those other serveices mentioned in poll.
But remember ... we are still minority compared to KR. Doubt it will change anything if koreans decide to implement it.
Wasn't this incidently what Mistryl was polling about a couple of month ago?

EDIT: Yup, I see it was.

what they talk about is, ACCONT TRANSFER.



Incidently, this was what I've been asking for since C1. With the current rate of implementation of my ideas we'll see clan warehouse rights in CT2 and sensible market plans in CT4
i'd rather bring my AW from devianne to Erica... =[
Can someone explain why anyone would pay to transfer characters. That's hardly fair. Firstly both the accounts (apparently) belong to the same person and everyone pays an amount each month for the account anyway. Between servers I could understand but between accounts?

Perhaps it's something obvious I'm missing but I personally wouldn't pay.
Maybe you wouldn't, but there are many reasons why you would transfer a character off your account, like if you were husband and wife sharing one account, then finally got another, you had two characters on the same account (like I have a warsmith, prophet and EE on the same account, I had to make another warsmith on another account and I would contemplate moving my EE off).

There could be many reasons. But yeah, at this point, I wish we could get server transfers.
Sorry I didn't make my point well - what I meant to say is I can't see why we should have to pay to transfer rather than why people would pay. I have a couple of characters I would love to move about, but not by paying. I think my main point is as I said, we already pay for our accounts, it seems unfair to have to pay again to move characters between our accounts - servers yes, accounts no.

Sorry I didn't make my point well - what I meant to say is I can't see why we should have to pay to transfer rather than why people would pay.


I'm guessing that there are two reasons for this. First, to discourage people from doing it constantly or accidentally. Second, it is possible that it is not a completely automated process and requires a little human intervention.
I would actually pay to change my name, so that i could obtain a name of a Toon I created awhile ago. The Account Transfers are perefect for people who started a support class toon and rerolled. They can now change it to another account and have a 2 box.
It could come free with a new account, that would be an idea.
