Ive talked to some of my friends ingame and we all think pwi should
offer us to take our chars to the europe servers,

main reason is better times with event's tw's

i like tw but i don't like to get up 4 am in the morning to do it
but there is no other option for me and ive spent alot of money on this game
and don't feel like spending alot more for a new char on the europe server
with all my chars, since this was the only option for me to play this game and
i still enjoy it

Is this someting pwi would consider to do for their european players

and does more ppl agree with me?

what's ur thinkings about this ?

My english is not the best xD i hope u all get the point!

    Only way this would happen is if you paid them $5,000 to move your character. /end

    Well, as it stands at the moment it doesn't look like they would be willing to do it. I can empathize with you, but really I don't think it will happen. And also, think of those people who started on another server too who did decide to move to the EU servers and start completely from scratch. I can't say it'd be that fair to those people if others could simply just move their characters from previous servers over. Would feel as if the time spent rebuilding a new character was completely wasted. Not that they wouldn't be given the chance to move their toons too, of course.

    Either way though, I just don't think it'd happen. Even people who are fine with their current timezone want to switch servers sometimes. Maybe someone from a PvE server wants to go to a PvP server, or vice versa. I think if they did do this, they would have to cater to everyone who wanted the option to switch. I could see it being abused in some cases too. Taking very powerful characters and just adding them to other servers sounds potentially risky. A whole big faction of R9ers (as an extreme, improbable example) could just jump to a new server and royally mess things up. Then leave to a new server and mess around there too. I dunno, it could have its flaws, perhaps.

    I completely agree with you. When i started play this game there where no other choice then to make my character on US servers. I would love it if i could switch to the Europe servers with my Characters.

    I know of one game which offered a transfer service per character if it was at the same rate as they had it would be about $200 or so to transfer all the characters on your account. I dont see why not, it worked fine there. they could just make rules about switching to pvp and about jumping to a new server before it established

    due to the amount of time i spend online..my energy drink guzzling and absolutely no sleep schedule (you should see how bloodshot my eyes get sometimes)

    time zones are quite meaningless to me o.o

    I know of a game that allows you to freely moves between US, Europeans and Asian servers.....

    (We are still waiting to see any improvements or changes beign implemented. More empty promises from PWI?)

    I agree with you.

    BUT it wont happen. PWI WANT us to switch, but they want us to start over again so that we will be more likely to spend money.

    No way that this would ever happen

    Having had to start all over again like all the current players on the Euro servers I don't agree with the OP.

    New server is just that- a new server. Everyone starts again.

    Only way I'd be in favour of allowing people to move their characters over is a charge of $1000 which is then distributed to the current Euro players as compensation- we all took the decision to start over, don't see any reason why you can't do the same.
