Are they up? If so how do they work? All I see is the option to "Buy Character Transfer"...someone knock me in the head with knockledge.

Yeah, they're up. You have to use the "Buy Character Transfer" option, but it lets you do it for free anyway. Threw me too the first time round

Way to mark things clearly devs

Still I'm glad for the free transfers

How do I get a free character transfer?

Virtue is so laggy that I want to shift my characters to a less busy server.

Free transfers are given out in special events. They've only happened twice. When they do happen, you'll probably find out about in the gmotd. In the mean time, you can just make characters on the other server.

They should be giving them out as vet rewards, considering that it's an aging MMO in an era of single-shard games.

Really? Is this true? Back when the advertised free transfers were going on it actually told you how many free server transfers you had left. So now it says it'll charge you, but actually gives free transfers anyway? It sounds nice, but i'm a bit dubious about this.

That post was on 8/19/2010... At that time, it showed you X Transfers remaining. but you STILL had to hit the store to redeem them. now 9/26/2010, transfers are no longer free, so they say they will charge you.

Funny, the 800lbs Gorilla isn't single shard. Neither is that new Japanese MMO.

In truth, the only game I know that is legitimately single shard is EVE Online. The only others I can think of are that way because the game pop is painfully small (as in smaller than this game by nearly half)
