dragon_alchemist13 Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 I was reading the sites info on the migration, and something seems odd about how they worded the info about clans. It says that the only things that don't get copied over is plat. and clan. It says that once your account copies over your removed from your pc clan? Why would this even matter if it isnt copied over to begin with? There's also a question about re joining your clan on your pc, and it says NO ps4 players and pc players can't be in the same clan.... which makes absolutely no sense, of course they cant be in the same clan, but the question is talking about re joining the pc account not linking the two together. Does anyone understand whats going on with this? or if we do the migration are we just locked out of the pc clan for good? I ask because i have friends who play on pc, and i have friends who play on ps4 iv'e invested alot of time into the pc account so i dont want to re start the ps4 version from scratch, so i would like to play both versions at the same pace. without loosing anything valuable.

dragon_alchemist13 Posted June 17, 2014 Author Posted June 17, 2014 Afaik, once you switch you will not have your PC account anymore. Did they change something and not put it in the info area, because it says u can still play both versions of the game once your account is migrated, this is because its just making a clone of your account, NOT just moving it.

Dtexas Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 (edited) Afaik, once you switch you will not have your PC account anymore. Its an account copy and not an account trasnfer. The system will copy everything from your PC to your PS4 account and from that point the two will be different. Edited June 17, 2014 by Dtexas
Aggh Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 (edited) Afaik, once you switch you will not have your PC account anymore. Calling it a migration is kind of unclear, but the way they've described it is that it would be copying the PC account to the PS4 account. https://forums.warframe.com/index.php?/topic/130116-information-and-faq-pc-to-ps4%E2%84%A2-account-migration/ Edited June 17, 2014 by Aggh
Letter13 Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 Here's how it works: When you migrate, you take your PC gear, items, progress, and everything except clan-based information and platinum and copy it over, replacing your PS4 progress/items/etc. It wipes your PS4 progress as well; any platinum purchase you made on the PS4 is undone and you're refunded the platinum; additionally, items obtained via prime access will remain in your account. Your PC account remains the same, you will still have your PC account with your clan, progress, items, platinum etc. Basically it's a copy and paste, not a cut and paste. However your PS4 account will not have the platinum and clan progress from your PC account. Basically if you're the warlord of a clan, your dojo and research progress don't carry over. You'll have to create a clan with your PS4 account or join a PS4 based clan.
dragon_alchemist13 Posted June 17, 2014 Author Posted June 17, 2014 here is a link to the area where i found the info about account migration. https://digitalextremes.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/200439684-PC-to-PS4-Account-Migration-NOT-CURRENTLY-AVAILABLE- I did submit a ticket about it because its just worded really poorly so if someone else doesn't know the answer on the forums hopefully someone up top will help out. With Update 14 coming soon and DE talking about the account migration happening when both the pc and ps4 are in update 14. I feel like people who are in the same boat as i am should know all the info there is to know about it, so nothing valuable gets left behind. or doesn't mess up the progress we have made on the pc version.

This is Exactly my understanding of how it will work, i was just confused by the site and wanted to double check with the community.
dragon_alchemist13 Posted June 18, 2014 Author Posted June 18, 2014 So DE just got back to me and said that you would NOT be removed from your clan on the PC version when doing the account migration. :D
