Hey, there were three of us using one ps2 to play this game...I just got my own set up for the pc..Is there any way I can transfer my character over to a new id? so that I can play her on my pc while the others are on their machine?

Not that I know of. Everyone I know of has just started over with a new character on the new ID. SE isn't big on transferring characters like that.

I have both the PS/2 and PC version so my wife and I can both play. We have two seperate accounts, and when I switched to the PC, I had to start all over again with a new character. You character is tied to a Content ID, and Content IDs are tied to Accounts. I am not aware of any way to move a Content ID.

I can play on either the PS/2 or PC, depending on where I login. But if I boot up the PS/2 (which is set to auto-login as my wife's account) while she is playing on the PC, it will immediately kick her off (local screen goes back to the login prompt, online status is 'disconnecting' for 30 seconds).

Looks like you are gonna need your PS/2 based friends to power-level you a bit to get you back to where you left off.

Note: you can move items to your new character by creating the new character on the same server, switching to the old account/character, deliver items to new character, repeat...

You can also go to Guest Log In, and log on to any account that you or your family have the POL ID & Password.

yes, yes you can. ID's are not tied to PS2 or PC. you must buy the PC version then simply put in the account info from your PS2 in when you set up your PC version. please dont give the wrong answer everyone...

I started on ps2 and now play mostly on PC (my friend let me install it with his disks)

You can play on both pc or ps2 with an account - soon to be xbox360 as well - yep it's possible. What you do is you add your POL account you use on say ps2(your ID and password) after that you can log in and access your characters just like you would on ps2. You cannot, however, move from one account to another or have 2 people using characters on the same POL account.

I think some of you are missing the point. He wants to split one account, and move a character from it to a new account. It can't (or at least won't) happen.
