Transfer of console-created accounts suspended until further notice

I don’t think “ranting” is the right word to describe the extreme disregard we PSN players have been experiencing from the start. All this account system seems like an orchestrated plan to trap and abandon the players. So, in my opinion we’re behaving pretty well compared to GAIJIN.

No news, no updates, not a single shred of evidence that we are getting a single bit of attention, what else could it be? Are we supposed to be happy that you guys threw us into this containment thread and buried the key?

If you truly mean that we are not ignored, please prove it. I personally am not expecting anything anymore and I believe Gaijin doesn’t care about us console players or any player’s issues in general, prove me wrong.

Still not illegal, or breaking any terms that i know of that Gaijin has with Sony.
Ultimately, the game is available on Playstation because of both parties, but if one party pulled out then the game wouldnt be on Playstation anymore.
Sony does not run the game, Gaijin does, so either way the save data is Gaijin’s to control. Since Gaijin is not removing, or altering the Playstation data, Sony cant stop them.

Ultimately, it is up to the player if they stop playing the game on the Playstation, and if that is the case then its on Sony for not providing a better service.

That’s the Definition of Ignoring

Ignoring means intentionally disregarding, overlooking, or not paying attention to people or things. It is a conscious blocking out or disregarding information, signals, or the presence of others, often out of disinterest or to create distance.

After almost two years, where are we finally not being ignored?

Potential revenue. If an account is no longer a PS account, Gaijin is, in Sonys eyes, cutting off future/potential revenue for them, they would argue that by using Transfer, they are pulling Sonys customers away from them into a 3rd party market. however, if we frame it as Optimisation, we can argue they are fighting against the better experience for the consumers by not allowing the PS account to be fully optimised for PC play. yes, ones that you know, personally i believe that there is a non-disclosure clause within that ToS between Gaijin and Sony preventing Gaijin form publicly speaking of it. I believe Xbox has something similar

Here’s a question perhaps you could answer, what in your eyes is neglection?

At this point I believe telling us the thing’s never gonna return and we should shoo would be far more acceptable than gagging and tossing us into whatever purgatory this is.

Who would be buying things on the ps/Xbox account? How much will it be used compared to the new PC account? Gaijin doesnt have to say if the terms of service has been updated. And you know why sony and Microsoft dont want the transfers to open up again? It could be Because of the cut they make. If PS and Xbox users go to PC, they lose that revenue and the amount of people logging onto their consoles. As for the laziness, you could be right looking at past updates, you could be wrong as the transfers not being up doesnt feed the snail its daily currency

All I want is to buy vehicles on the market, yet Gaijin really made us wait years for this.

It’s not the fault of Gaijin that console players can’t use the marketplace, point the finger to Sony and MS…

Dude. This line of conversation is moot no one cares about the console company’s loosing money.

Everyone has the free will to choose how to spend their money. Sony nor microslop can force you to spend money with them. That is it, end of the argument. People leave one companies service all the time for another. According to your logic we should all be sued and forced to stay on console rather than being able to switch to PC, and Gaijin as well as every other crossplatform experience out there should cease to exist.

What does it matter? Do you want your account transferred or not?
If not, why are you here?
If you do, why are you looking for reasons to stop it?

Sony nor Microsoft care about the transfers, nor have any terms with Gaijin preventing them otherwise they would have stopped it long ago, and not to mention even linking your account in the first place wouldnt have been a thing.
Gaijin stopped the transfers solely based off of the amount of work they were having to dedicate to it, which wouldnt have been an issue if they automated it like they did the linking process.

Past updates for the last few years have done nothing but add vehicles, (Even top tier premiums that Gaijin said they wouldnt do) and very little in the way of gameplay changes. Most of the gameplay changes have only come about due to the addition of the vehicles and their needed weapon systems.
No new maps, gameplay modes, or any other major improvements to the game itself.

As I stated before, the amount of effort required to write a program to copy data is miniscule. And if Gaijin did so, they would easily be making money from all of us here, not just in WT, but in the other Gaijin games as well since waiting for this transfer “service” keeps us from playing them.

Its probably all of their faults. Warthunder and all of the other Gaijin games couldve easily been true crossplatformers. But Gaijin loves the loot boxes with the .0003% chance at actually winning, and most companies frown on that nowadays especially when it is expected for kids to be in contact with it.
And also Given how thight fisted Gaijin is with what they do with their games, I doubt they wanted to give any control whatso ever to the console companies, even if it was something as small as timing their updates a specific way.

And if what you say is true, its useless to even be here bickering about something they dont want implemented again, in fact, the thread would be better closed then screaming into a deaf ear. i still think Sony and “Microslop” have something to do with it as they (Gaijin) havent said they are not doing it again, maybe Gromvoiny may help us with that piece, if the Transfers were never meant to start again.

Not to us, but to the two companys its a world of news. Im taking my piece from a view of contracts. Im also talking about witholding account progress, you want to go to a full pc account? Go ahead, but your progress stays on PS or Xbox. Also, its not the effort and work put into transferring data, but the rights Gaijin has to handle console accounts and whether the contract they signed with sony and xbox allows it, also have you seen the contract/ToS strictly inbetween Gaijin and Sony and Xbox, not available for public viewing?

If it didnt allow it, it wouldnt have been possible this whole time.
again, even linking your account wouldnt have been allowed.

I have already been through all this law junk here before. Read up in the forum.

Gaijin isnt handling your account on console. They are copying the save data that Gaijin already has control over.
The console companies dont store your save data, the game companies do.

Gaijin stopped transferring accounts not because of a TOS issue, but due to the work load they created with their own laziness. The dev literally said so every time they have shut down transfers.

Just read up in the forum.
This law and TOS stuff has been gone through multiple times before and has absolutely nothing to do with, nor is it stopping, Gaijin in this endeavor.

The reason why we are here is because we have no choice in the matter.
Gaijin only ever announced the opening of this service by creating a topic on the forums, there was never any other way.
And if we arent here keeping this topic active, then Gaijin will assume no one wants it and not even bother trying to bring it back.
But as more people gather here, and keep this topic at the top of the forum, it forces them to acknowledge that people are still waiting on it.

EDIT
Actually, while looking back, you have already brought all of this up before.

I recommend reading through the Forum Guidelines to see if there are any rules that your messages have broken.

If you have any questions about moderation on the forum then send a private message to one of the Forum Moderators, discussing and/or questioning moderation in public is generally not allowed. You can find all the teams and the areas they handle listed here: (Who is who and Reporting Procedure). If you don’t get an answer within a few days you can add more moderators from the list to the original message instead of sending a new message (that way you preserve the date of the message and it doesn’t look like a new request), adding one of the moderators to the message every 2-3 days or so until you get an answer.

Please do not to add the seniors until you have tried all other regular moderators, the Seniors likely won’t answer unless they are added and pinged by the regular moderators but if you’ve added all the regular moderators with no answer then you can add the seniors.
