Maintenance for the week of January 20:
• PC/Mac: No maintenance – January 20
• NA megaservers for maintenance – January 22, 4:00AM EST (9:00 UTC) - 9:00AM EST (14:00 UTC)
• EU megaservers for maintenance – January 22, 9:00 UTC (4:00AM EST) - 14:00 UTC (9:00AM EST)

I'd pay $50 for it

    If people are willing to buy the game on the new platform, they should be able to transfer accounts.
    It would have to be a one time transfer. Also the account wouldn't work in the previous platform.

    I don't see an issue the this.

    Attention to all my guildies and friends. Want to help me out? I'll be swapping platforms next week and would appreciate it if I could borrow as many high end items and mats to take with me. I'll be more than happy to give them back to you after my transfer. Much appreciated. Thanks!


    That is the reason you aren't likely to see a transfer. If they allow it, they would have to simultaneously disable the first account to prevent things like this.

    I just started all over again for the 3rd time. It sucks i lost so much. I started at PC launch and then had my daughter and moved away from gaming for a short time and sold my PC. Then bought a PS4 and decided 3 months ago to switch to Xbox and i had max characters on both those other systems and about 6000 crowns on PS4. And i cant transfer none of that to Xbox which sucks, i have no problem buying the game all over again but i shouldnt lose all my progress just for switching platforms. Would kill to bring my PS4 stuff over to Xbox right now..

    they still don't know how to do this. Live chars on PTS are only here thanks to a big whole dump..

    Moving 1 char to another server is a bit more complex.

    But don't be sad, any source of money is considered ^^

    Why would it have to be a one time transfer? I can't begin to describe how great it would be to boot up my PC account on my PS4 and then go back to my PC any time I feel like.

    Cross platform play would be nice too. Then I could go questing with my wife while she plays on one and I play on the other.

    That would just give unfair advantage the cross platform to those that only have one version, this is why MMO's should never go console ha.

    Another +1 here for transfer. Transfer too, not copy! :smile:

    I have 863cp on Xbox One EU, its mainly the amount of crowns i have spent though being locked. 10s of thousands.

    But have recently taken to grinding PC NA just for the graphical change really.

    If you have it in you, 0-400cp is attainable in just over 9 days.

    How about just merging the PvE side of things so PS4, Xbone, PC are all playing together but when you go to cyrodiil then you go to your platform specific version. Consoles go to Console Cyro and PC goes to PC Cyro. The only reason to keep them separate is due to addon support being on PC unless ZoS can get addons working on console like bethesda.net but for ESO.

    whats gonna happen is eventually they are going to have the character transfer option and for those of us that would have already started on another platform would now have 2 active leveled account, thus not needing the transfer and wasting our time.

    Ok, gotta ask.

    How is that an unfair advantage? The two versions are practically identical. The biggest difference is laying on my couch and playing on my 55" 4K smart tv versus sitting in my office chair playing on my 27" monitor :|

    Actually with a PC you could continue to play on your couch and play on your TV... But anyways

    I think they were saying a not one time transfer would be unfair. Think of the gold you could make buying and selling between platforms. The economy is crazy different.

    No, this is not how it should work. I think there should be an account option to copy your characters to either platform you play - maybe $15-20 per character. I play(ed) on PC, PS4 and right now XOne. I don't want to lose my characters on any platform I just want to be able to switch platforms without losing characters.
