On behalf of probably most people here we humbly request for name of this thread be changed from the current: [Transfer of console-created accounts now available (suspended)]
to the more appropriate: [Transfer of console-created accounts not available] or [Transfer of console-created accounts now closed]
As the original can be misleading and to some insulting.
From the sheer amount of replies and what the majority of them say Gaijin should have a pretty good idea about how too many people feel about this.
So counter-profitable, I sadly now know more people whom have left WT than have joined :(

It could, and it would probably automate most of this process for them. But since Gaijin has chosen to make this difficult i doubt they would make any improvements even if something else did the work for them.
Ive been wondering this for years. Gaijin has people here literally screaming at them “Take my money!!!” and is refusing them.

And I am one of them. I was about to buy almost every pack with top tier, but now im struggling because there is no point in any further progressing if cant enjoy my account fully on PC. Wanted also to buy the last pack with 4 prems which contained KV-1E and prem IL-2 however i couldnt because it was PC only exclusive. I wish to know whats even stopping us from having an access to the marketplace since i really want some vehicles from it.

I understand that developing a feature always requires time and money being put into it. But for sure in the long run this will pay off in players actually buying more goods. I mean all the guys in this thread alone are not here pleading and begging to finally reopen the account transfer just because they like having the “psn” or “live” removed from their name. Each and everyone here probably wants to buy something he/she can’t right now due to account limitations.
I only recently got into Warthunder again, through watching some content on youtube, after making a long break because I was fed up. Coming back after years to see its still not possible for me to properly participate in events or buy the premiums I want is disheartening.
I literally spent hundreds of € to obtain the premiums I like and are ready to spend more money, but i literally can’t obtain a lot of vehicles.
Please trey putting yourself in our shoes how it feels to get put in an infinite limbo of “maybe some day”.

Imagine if everyone in the player-Base learnt to code and just coded a solution as I can tell there are at least thousands who want this solution, so what if we just made one lol. As the dev said, there isn’t that many people at Gaijin who are free at the moment so they can’t do much / anything right now but war thunder has 70 million users so we could maybe make a community based process?

I haven’t used an Xbox for three years and I keep missing all the account transfers whenever they reopen, there really should be an automated process for this huge issue?
Or there should be made some queue that U can write on and just wait - after finish you should recive an email or something that inform U about prces ended
will be developed by next opening hopefully
next opening wont be for a while from what hints the devs have given us
What hints? Can You give some article or something or You just speculate?

Gaijin could just use Chat GPT to make a program for this, and then we wouldnt have to become free employees to a company that we are already paying thousands of dollars into.
We are already giving them thousands of dollars, surely they can take a few people off of the next premium vehicle pack development so we can give them more money?
Gaijin only cares about the short term gains.
What hints?
This is the only “hint” we have ever gotten from the dev.
Do we have any information on when this service will be available again? I have been playing on my console account on my PC for about a year and have submitted several requests with no success. I have invested so much time in this account that starting a new one is not an option.
Here is a theoretical sketch of how an automated system for account transfer could work, if Gaijin provided an official API for the process.
Important:
- This code is purely hypothetical and assumes that Gaijin has an API or interface for account transfers.
- It does not violate any EULA or forum rules; it is simply a conceptual idea for a possible automated solution.
How Could Gaijin Implement This?
If Gaijin really wanted to automate the process, an official system could work like this:
- Request Validation: The player provides their console ID and email.
- Confirmation: A code is sent via email or displayed on the console.
- Data Migration: Account data (e.g., progress, vehicles, premium content) is transferred to the PC system.
- Completion: The player receives confirmation that the transfer is successful.
The current manual process seems unnecessarily complicated. An automated solution could save time and reduce support requests.
Theoretical Code Sketch for an Automated Account Transfer
import requests
# Example API endpoints (hypothetical)
API_BASE_URL = "https://api.gaijin.net/account_transfer"
# User account data
user_data = {
"console_platform": "PlayStation", # Or "Xbox"
"console_account_id": "123456789", # The user's console ID
"target_platform": "PC",
"email": "[email protected]",
"verification_code": "ABCDEFG12345" # If email confirmation is required
}
def request_transfer(user_data):
"""Send a request for account transfer"""
response = requests.post(f"{API_BASE_URL}/request", json=user_data)
if response.status_code == 200:
return response.json() # Returns the transfer ID or confirmation
else:
return {"error": "Transfer request failed", "status_code": response.status_code}
# Start the transfer (hypothetical)
transfer_response = request_transfer(user_data)
print(transfer_response)

Fix this so I can give you more money.
I want to buy PC packs, I play on PC(Linux).
I do not play on PSN anymore. Pulling my ps4 out of the closet to make a purchase is a huge pain in the ass and half of the stuff I want isn’t even available.
