You said you linked your accounts. Now you're saying they were eligible, which means you would have been able to merge them. In any case, it doesn't matter. If you completed the process and connected your accounts (either by linking or merging, it doesn't matter), you should have one single account that you can access on all the connected platforms. Your username will be different on every platform though. But the account itself will be the same (same mastery rank, same items owned, etc.) Edited February 2 by --N--

Are you sure you actually connected them? Does https://www.warframe.com/cross-save say they are connected? Are you logged in to the connected PS and Switch account on your PS and Switch?
RX0UnicornGM Posted February 2 Posted February 2 they are connected it just gives me the option to merge

--N-- Posted February 2 Posted February 2 1 hour ago, RX0UnicornGM said: Oh so it's forced merge then? There are two possible ways to connect your accounts. Linking: The primary account overwrites every other account, everything on the other accounts is lost. Merging: The primary account overwrites every other account, stuff on the other accounts is transferred to the primary account. Yes, if your accounts are eligible, you are "forced" to merge them, you cannot link. Why do you not want to merge your accounts?

What they said was that the merge would not be available to everyone. Merging is strictly better than linking, so I don't understand why you're complaining about it.

Belmenel Posted February 6 Posted February 6 On 2024-01-31 at 1:33 PM, Eycaj said: Yeah, except it's not lol Based on the automated support ticket responses, DE knew this would be a large issue, but the company is more concerned with people potentially duplicating virtual items than they are with assisting veteran players in securing their hundreds of hours of progress on other accounts. You've employed a half-baked system to accomplish a buzz-word marketing goal you haven't put in the effort to make an actual reality. Don't advertise this as something that it isn't DE. You've made merging available for the individuals who didn't try out your cross-platform system. Meanwhile, all of us who did engage with it did so without knowing it would have significantly greater consequences than rewards. You could seek solutions that might be slightly more inconvenient but would be of great assistance to veteran players. Unfortunately, your lack of communication and/or transparency on this matter, as well as false marketing statements like the title of this post, show that the greater part of the company just doesn't care if veteran players are helped. It's a shame to see your Community Management team being forced to put on blinders and ear muffs to ignore the countless posts of players with ~1-minute playtime console-linked accounts. Instead of expressing compassion, or at least employing some kind of reparation for those you are unwilling to help by employing more strenuous strategies for merging options, you just pretend you don't see them. You withhold a proper explanation, or even just a simple acknowledgment on a Dev Stream because it would notify more of the community of those being screwed over. I get it. It's just business. It's smart to put your head down and wait for the storm to blow over, as there are plenty of players amongst the crowd of us who sought to come back to the game on the announcement of the merges that will give in, link their accounts, wipe their history with the game from another platform, and grind back everything they can. Why waste the resources on developing a better solution "For all players," when you can just lie and have effectively the same result for less effort? Why has this still not been addressed, DE? 1
Crackbabyy13 Posted February 12 Posted February 12 I completely share your sentiments regarding the trading issues after merging accounts in Warframe. It's indeed frustrating when an intended improvement ends up causing more inconvenience. I've also experienced difficulties with cross-platform trading, and the limitations on trading with players who haven't merged their accounts are a significant drawback. It's impacting not only my personal gaming experience but also my ability to assist others effectively. I believe a prompt resolution to this matter, perhaps through a hotfix or an upcoming update, would greatly benefit the entire Warframe community. Let's hope Digital Extremes addresses this concern soon to enhance the collaborative aspects of the game. Thanks for bringing this up, and let's hope for a positive change soon.

HOODIExRELL Posted March 23 Posted March 23 This is stupid because once you link, you can't trade with friends unless they link their too. That doesn't make any sense if they only play on one platform and no other.
(NSW)zalws Posted May 2 Posted May 2 Question regarding purchases with cash after merging. I have recently linked my PC and my Nintendo Switch account. My Switch account is set as my primary. However, if want to purchase plats/prime access in the future, can i make the purchase via PC log in and will the items be transferred to my Switch account automatically since it's merged? Reason being, purchasing via my PC account will be based on my local currency and there are discounts available for prime access compared to direct purchase via switch. So i would prefer purchasing via PC as long as my transactions are safe.
(XBOX)DoG Dovahkiin Posted August 17 Posted August 17 I guess they don't care about their players. Just look at how long it's taking to reply to anyone in this post.Merging and linking should be the same thing. It's money the devs are after if not.
beankurosaki Posted November 24 Posted November 24 I am on PC and merged my xbox then playstation account, I recieved my playstation items however i did not recieve my xbox items any ideas why?
