Hi everyone, I know there has been some discussion about the console servers being independent from the PC/Linux Servers and that many have come to some agreement. More or less, but I'd like to place in my thoughts which I would like to convey to players and devs alike. First off, I understand that cross-playing on multiple platforms can be difficult to create, especially something like STO, but I'd like to still point out that allowing to at least transfer saved data from one platform client to another could be useful. I for one among many would like to play STO on PS4, but I've spent money on my account on PC and the fact that I'd have to start from scratch rather blows and discourages us to even open the game on console.
True, a lot of people will argue that allowing such actions would make the PC client redundant or something, but I believe that there would still be a lot of players playing on PC, even though a considerable fraction would like to do what I am proposing.
Suppose the devs decide they will not allow transferring the accounts and characters because it is difficult and cost too much. Why not allow the players on the console, after linking their accounts, send a copy of the items they have accumulated? Almost like what STO has been doing during events by mailing gifts and perks? They've sent ships, the TOS bridge crew, and perks like extra ship slots during giveaways. Suppose they could do that?
I would like to hear other people's thoughts on this, but no haters comments. Cheers!
