I changed my title because I'm constructive like that.

I have numerous articles of this Lead Dev Tyson Green stating that Destiny characters would move from 360 to PS4 incase you got the other console for Xmas etc. I am in this scenario and my character has not transferred what so ever. I have to start again. This would be fine if I wasn't told that my character WOULD transfer, and the console didn't cost 400 dollars. How do I get my character across as explained in these articles? No I have not read them wrong. The Xmas example was one provided by the dev. If I am doing something wrong on my 360 to link it please let me know.

      • Umm your dumb. I'm sure no one ever said that. They said you could transfer a 360 character to xbox one. But a trade between Microsoft and Sony? You should know better. Completely different servers.

      • Well let's see... If characters could be transfered that means that the servers would be joined together also meaning you could play with ps4 players. Now please explain to me how you could be so stupid as to think that the different consoles would share the same servers?

      • Reading comprehension my friend. Not one time did they say that you could transfer your data cross platform. They said that you could upgrade to the next gen on the same platform and that data would transfer. This is because your data is tied to your account. Since your Xbox account is not a Playstation account you have to start from scratch. But on the Brightside, since you've made the jump to Sony you at least now have access to the exclusive content and you'll get the DLC earlier if you choose to buy it.

            • Currently, I do not believe there is a way to transfer your characters between consoles of different families (i.e., from a Sony platform to a Microsoft platform). Green's direct quote from the Q&A was: [quote]We're really interested in making sure that a last-gen character can move to next-gen just because there's gonna be a lot of people that buy Destiny on, say, a PS3 or a 360 and then they get a PS4 for Christmas and it's like, well, 'Don't tell me I've just wasted my last hundred hours there.' We don't want to lock people in.[/quote] This was back in April, and speculation over whether or not it went across generation lines or company lines went all over the place. It's worth mentioning that he might have just not mentioned the Xbox One, or that the intent of the statement went in a fairly different direction than you would have liked. Or maybe he was going out on a limb and wanted to voice what he intended to try to accomplish. Either way, it is old information. The point is that by July, they had already clarified this for both the full game and the beta, which also had this transferable ability. [quote]As you’ve discovered, as your Guardian evolves it will be able to travel from one generation of console to the next. Just like hopping worlds, you can use the same Guardian on Next Gen and Legacy Gen consoles – so long as you stay in the same system. Ergo, you can move from PlayStation to PlayStation and from Xbox to Xbox, but not across product lines.[/quote] The early speculation and teasing comments from developers is understandably irritating, but the refuting comments have been around for a while. We've known for a while that your guardians are tied to your gaming account, which is tangentially linked to bungie.net, and that means you may transfer your characters between consoles as long as they also use that same gaming account.

              • Do you mean his statement here? [i]"We're interested in making sure that last gen character can move to next gen," he said. "A lot of people are going to buy Destiny on PS3 or Xbox 360 and then get a PS4 for Christmas. Don't tell me I wasted those last 100 hours there. So we're really interested in supporting that. Our longer-term platform plans, I couldn't speak to right now. But we don't want to lock people in." However, he could not offer details on how the transfers would take place. He said that no decision has yet been made for those console owners who switch brands, meaning that a PS3 owner who buys and Xbox One might not be able to transfer their saves. "We don't have any plans to announce there right now. Traditionally that's been restricted by the platform [holders] themselves. We'll just have to wait and see where they go with that."[/i]

Because you're clearly misunderstanding the articles since they never once said that would be a thing. The closest they got to it is saying they would 'like' to, but it isn't their decision.
