Account Transfer


Evils

I'm not sure this would work actually. It's just something I would like to see.

I have 2 accounts. I have them because when I ran out of slots on one account I got another. We are now in a position that we can have many more characters in the game.

I would like to see a way of transferring characters between accounts. As a caveat to that I think the accounts would need to be registered at the same address, perhaps, or some sort of checking would have to be brought in to stop people selling characters off.

I'm not sure NCSoft would want to do it though, they would loose money from it.

Yes please i would love to be able to combine my 2 accounts into a single account.

Hmmmm, yes, I would like this possibility.

Though there's the part where I WOULD move my lvl 50 tanker to my second account, and maybe my blaster from my seccond account to my main one.

Issues this arises:
My secondary account doesn't have a lvl 50 hero (like my main doesn't have a lvl 50 villain). Would my second account unlock HEAT?

My main account is roughly 18 months ahead of my second in vets. Would my Tanker loose his badges and vet powers? Would my blaster gain them?

Well I think you're not gonna get the vet powers and all because it's a second account, thick and thin, it has different vet rewards and all. That's probably the easiest way to solve the abuse that would come with the system. Although you'd probably unlock HEATs/VEATs since they ARE level 50, and you do need a level 50 to unlock them. And as said before, you've got one...

To avoid the abuse, perhaps flag characters per account so that a fifty from one moving to another won't unlock Epic AT's, but a character created on the account could. Lots of coding I guess, but it'd stop people selling their chars for the unlock.

I fully support inter-account transfers, as I have one char I want to move onto my main account so I can shut down the secondary and save some cash moneys in this 'economic downturn'.

Some sort of feature to allow people to transfer characters in the methods stated would be nice. I know exactly what HH is on about, and even if it was a temporary feature, or rather specific, then it would still be good.
Me? Im cheap, I ain't even bought all the slots on my one account, altaholic though I am XD

Easier just to limit it to transferring between different game accounts on the same master account.


Mind of Gaia lvl 50 Defiant's first Mind/Storm 'troller.
Deadly Doc 50 Dark/Dark Corr
and lots more on Pinnacle,Union and Defiant

Yea as long as it was within the same master account i fail to see how it could be exploited really. or am i missing something?

Yeah, I have two master accounts with one game in each yet I should legitimately be able to transfer characters

Maybe there could just be an option to link accounts with the older of the two acting as your vet level. To stop exploits, you would never be able to unlink accounts.
