Unfortunately I believe it's mostly a technical problem. The NA and EU are completely different servers, somewhat similar to how PS4, PC, and xbox servers are on separate systems. The devs could implement transfers, if only as a one time transfer, like they did with PC to console, but it would likely be a one-way deal, simply overwriting your existing credentials on whatever server you're transferring to. Progress would not carry over in this scenario - anything you level up on one server would not carry over to another. In addition, this has only ever happened so far at console launch. I can only imagine that it would be a more complicated thing on current live servers, when the servers aren't starting over from a blank slate.
They do have PTS systems in place, however, that's a different story, as if PTS crashes, no big deal. If a live server were to get messed up, there would undoubtedly be an issue, if not several issues.
This would be cool. I know some people that play on Xbox EU but I just don't have the time to grind out CP again. I wouldn't even want to be able to carry over any items or gear, just CP. Don't see anything wrong with that.
Yup im opposite Au based and play alone alot of time on EU with just a short period of overlap before i go to bed. If i want to run a trial they start at like 3 or 4 am. Staryed a new account on NA to play with felliw Aussies but still excluded from end game as and its gonna take a year to level up
Keep in mind you'd also have to buy every single dlc etc in the crown store again(unless you sub since sub is shared cross server). Cp isn't the only issue with NA/EU transfers/alts. It would be nice but I doubt they'd ever change that, and if they did they'd annoy the people who did re-grind 600+ cp to no end.
On bright side, non-shared crown store purchases mean my (currently non subbed) EU toon never ever gets dlc dungeons for randoms
YES This would be great. I could get off this laggy xbox game and onto PC na and only lose my flawless conq, former emp, master crafter with over 500 consumable and 700 furnishing recipes known, all my gear, all my materials, my 3 houses, all the furnishings inside, all my achievements, all my skins, all my mounts, all my outfits, all my gear, all my gold, 11 characters, 2 years of playing and my soul... But at least i would have my cp, and tbh if that was the case i would still go to pc just to be able to pvp effectively..
Or wait, zos could just give us paid character transfers but im 99.99% sure they never will.. Because what difference does it make if we still play the broken game? If we dont want to lose it all we will deal with it.. Sad.
