Hello,
I haven't played Neverwinter in a while and see its out for the Xbox One and am wondering since I purchased the $200 Hero of the North pack on pc if ANY of that will be tranfered over to the Xbox One? I figured it would be since it was a founders pack but i see no options or any way to get it.
Please Help!!!
Thanks

    You can link your account, but all that gets you is support and a free companion on xbox.

    You were a founder for the PC and you will always have that on the PC. Nothing from the PC transfers to Xbox. It is actually a good thing. It keeps the economy fresh and no super overpowered players at the start.

    It also stopped me from playing the Xbox One version.

    I paid $60 on PC for the guardian pack, not interested in buying it again. Its a missed opportunity, I would have likely bought stuff from both zen stores if I was allowed to have that pack.

    Me too. I would prefer to play NW on my X1 than my PC. I have actually stopped playing on PC. However, if Cryptic believe i am going to play the xbone version from scratch, and lose out on all the packs i bought, after levelling all the reps except the latest one, they really need to get with the times.

    Their game isn't that good for starters.

    Once the initial levelling frenzy wears off the new X1 players, it will sort the men from the boys when the real grind kicks in and they realise to get anything done in a certain amount of time, or get any cool items without grinding for weeks, they need to shell out.

    I probably sound bitter, and i probably am, because after playing the game since launch and spending real money on it for a time, i feel they have only been able to launch an X1 version off the back of people like me. They could have at least shown a sliver of loyalty by allowing us to transfer our PC unlocks/packs and reputations grinds across. I don't care about amassed wealth or AD or assets. Just the stuff i actually paid for. If they can link accounts why cant they link some account unlocks from our PC packs?

    Because they want to milk any penny they can from anyone at all. Shameless. They even renamed the packs they sell on X1, so they are similar but not same as the PC equivalents. Jokers..

    Welcome to the free to play model of gaming. They have to pay to keep things running just like the other free to plays out there. At least with the free to pays you have a chance to try it before dumping money into it, lok at all the folks that were had by Activision/Bungie with Destiny. I see free to play becoming the norm for game models and that will be a benefit to al the gamers out there, instead of buying a game and finding it a dog (again destiny comes to mind along with COD Ghosts) and loosing money from the start free to play will make it so you only have to pay for the games you tryout and enjoy playing. I am not sure that NW Xbox will ever link between the PC but who knows what they may do in the future if NW xbox really takes off. World of tanks on the 360 is coming to the xbox one and they are making sure that player accounts of the 360 will transfer everything over. ESOL has offered to move PC accounts to the one/PS4 when it launches on console in June.It would seem likely that sooner or later they may offer a move like that for NW to keep pace with what some of the other FTP's are doing.
