Progression

[hollow portal]

Good morning

I come to explain a point of view that comes up often, which in itself could be possible in the future. Concerning old console accounts, so progressions, stuff, shelter upgrades, in-game currency..., I think this addition could be beneficial for people like me who have put money into the game, spending long hours farming on the game when it was on console, this can be understood if a person put $100 or more on console and that same person switches to PC and learns that he will have to start all over again A to Z, there are more than one who will not want to start all over again which is a shame because Vigor so deserves to have more popularity, and it has already happened on other games that are there this kind of addition, I think that if we do everything so that the game pleases as many people as possible it can only work, or I take the example of Xbox because I don't know how it goes for Playstation, Xbox We are finding that there are games that can be launched from their application while saving the players' progress, or find another alternative but I really think that this should see the light of day. especially since Cross-Play will arrive at the full release of the game so why not put it at the same time or a little later.

I mark this by really thinking that if the developers really listen to their communities the game will only continue, I hope.

If the devs plan to add cross save then the wipe of early access should also not happen.

early access shouldnt have been a thing

[hollow portal]

Well, if on the contrary early access is made to try the game and find bugs that could be in the game, but the idea that I gave of Cross-Save only applies to the full release of the game on PC and not during early access, this request keeps coming back and in itself it would be good to consider doing it, like many other games have done when initially they did not want to but they ended up doing it anyway because it was a big ask and that's understandable.

[delicate sapphire]

yes but again, if they implement cross save after full release, why should early access players be wiped ? if there is cross save there will be xbox / playstation players with thousands of hours of progression.

And btw, the 3 months early access is way too long and not needed, this game is freaking 6 years old. It could have been released in the actual state and just being fixed overtime.

It's been 2 days since release, there is like 500 players at most in the peak hours and I'm already almost done playing because I don't have any motivation to play further knowing everything will be wiped, they did a bad move with this to be honest.

yup^

we are replaying an old battlepass why cant we keep that shit at least right ? consoles had years content.
not only that but why paywall access? for no aactual real content feels like i paid for a game and only got a demo

one outfit that is less appealing then anything on the battle pass to begin with

[hollow portal]

When you say "why should early access players be wiped?", are you talking about the pass, skins, currency, shelter upgrades?

[delicate sapphire]

yes everything, I mean I would be happy if we kept like maybe the battlepass rewards and the lifetime stats, or something amongst those lines, but even if we kept everything I don't see any issue in this, this game doesn't have powercreep, you can onetap people with white weapons, so it's not like early access players would have an edge if there was no wipe after release

[hollow portal]

Yeah I understand what you mean. I don't know, I don't have an answer to give on that

[hollow portal]

namely that I do not find it logical that we implement cross-play but that we do not implement cross-progression, this means that we can play with our Console friends while being PC when the game is finished, they will have their accounts with literally everything but not us, which is not normal, that means that if we want our old accounts we have to play on console and in fact there are a lot of people like me who will reconnect their consoles to get nothing lose and be able to play cross-play, but if everyone does, the game on PC will slowly die, the servers will be empty, and so on.

and yet I love this game, I have thousands of hours of play on Xbox on it, I have no desire to see the game die really, I prefer to give overall ideas and give people's overall opinions and like I I said in my Steam evaluation of the game, "the community's opinion contributes a lot", I really start from the principle that if you really listen to the community the game can break through.

Hi there, it is a really good question, and we understand that cross-progression would be welcomed by some players. Unfortunately, it is not possible for us. We don't have any company-wide system that would allow us to have cloud saves across platforms. The only way this could be achieved for Xbox players would be the implementation of the Xbox login on PC, but we can't guarantee this at the moment. For other platforms, there are other things and rules preventing us from doing so.

Hi, I understand that and I respect that, thank you for answering me, in itself as you said if you have the possibility of doing it for Xbox players who have switched to PC, I think that would be a pleasure for the community that you did it, and PlayStation knowing that the game was released not long ago compared to Xbox, I think you could find a solution for Playstation players, there is always a solution, you will succeed in any case, I hope so .

What about something like a one-time account transfer? I have almost 800 hours of progress on Xbox, and as much as I want to experience the game on PC, I wouldn't want to start over.

For me (and I'm sure many others as well), it's the deciding factor.
