Account Transfers to PC

Dear Snail,

It’s getting closer and closer to 3 years without being able to transfer accounts to pc. I’ve played this game for a long time and sadly didn’t have a pc when needing/wanting to transfer. It would be amazing if we could actually hear something about it as it would make a lot of us happier if we could transfer our accounts. I’ve spent a handful of money personally on this game and can’t let my console account go because of it.

In short we would love to hear some news about it. We know it may not be the easiest thing to do backend wise, but it sure would make us even happier, and I’m sure my fellow console account snail lovers would agree.

Please just open it one last time for us out here who couldn’t make it to the last one, it would mean the most to us. I’ve had this account since 2019, but on console for the longest time and want to transfer it over.

Thanks,
Snail Lover

You can actually play on PC, you just won’t have access to the store or the marketplace.

If you use your live login on your PC, and access the MS Store with it, you can install War Thunder from there and you’ll be on PC.

You’d just want to hold your console ‘just in case’ maybe, or at least have complete control over the email it’s linked to.

I understand that (i’ve been using it on pc since shortly after the last transfer) but I wanna be able to use the marketplace; as so do many others. In my opinion I would’ve thought that allowing the transfers still (even if they may be hard) would be a good benifit as it will likely drag in more activity from people who wanna buy something on the marketplace, like myself.

I just think it’s worth some trouble. If they opened them once a year even that would be really nice. Most of us who transfer or want to transfer our accounts are (IMO) more likely to spend money on the marketplace shortly after getting the transfer.

I just think it’s worth revisiting and opening them after almost 3 years. Exspecially sense some of us play this game a lot and want to use all the bells and whistles.

Yea, I commonly mention I do support opening up the transfers again, it’s just a wonder how backlogged they will be when they do open it up again.

yeahh true. May be backlogged for a while but would def make so many people happy. I really hope they give some information in a reply. If they opened them in time for Christmas that would be even better IMO
