BioWare granting one-time free transfer to SWTOR APAC refugees
BioWare community manager Eric Musco has updated Asia-Pacific Star Wars: The Old Republic players on their server transfer options. The company announced in late March that the game's APAC shards are being shuttered. "Starting on Tuesday, June 4th, you will all be allowed a free one-time transfer for each character you have on an APAC server, Musco wrote. "We are going to allow you a one-time transfer to any SWTOR server. To reiterate, starting on Tuesday, June 4th, you will be allowed a one-time transfer for each character you have on an APAC server to any other non-APAC server."
SWTOR's Asia-Pacific servers merging with North American shards
BioWare is closing Asia-Pacific Star Wars: The Old Republic servers and relocating their residents to North American west coast shards. In a post on the SWTOR boards, community manager Eric Musco explains. "We have evaluated all of the options and determined that the best solution, that will offer the best long-term play experience, is to merge the APAC servers with higher populated North American servers," he writes. The transfers will be a multistep process which will eventually culminate in the following reassignments: Mastar Dar'Nala (PvP) players will transfer to The Bastion (PvP) Gav Daragon (RP-PvE) players will transfer to Begeren Colony (RP-PvE) Dalborra (PvE) players will transfer to The Harbinger (PvE) [Thanks Matthew!]
