Recommendations for copying account data from PC version account to switch version account

[w847111541]

Hello, when Warframe just launched the switch version, the account data copy service was opened for players. You can copy the PC version data to the switch account, but it is time-limited. I think this is not friendly to players who buy the switch later. I think a better operation should be that each PC account should have and only one opportunity to copy the account data to the switch version, so that most players will have a better experience. Hope to consider.

This again? You need to go tell that to Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft. They are the only ones that can make it happen.

Unfortunately account transfers are something that DE needs permission from console manufacturers to implement. DE had been allowed by Sony to implement it for a limited time when the PS4 launched for PC-to-PS4 transfers.

In the interest of fairness, the same opportunity (a limited time PC-to-Console transfer) was offered to XB1 and Nintendo Switch players. Whether Microsoft and/or Nintendo were/are willing to allow the transfer period to be extended or made indefinite is unknown, but because of the same interest of fairness and in order to not display favoritism, unless all 3 console manufacturers unanimously allow the PC-to-Console to occur again then it probably will not happen.

Long story short, Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo have to all allow it so that players of all platforms get an equal opportunity to transfer their data.
