WildStar Server Transfers details
Craig “Cougar” Turner, WildStar’s Director of Operations, announced on the Twitch stream that they are preparing the server transfer for tonight, and will give further update tomorrow. There were some technical issues while they were implementing this feature on the live servers, and they’ve been working on fixing it, with the hope of getting it out for official launch. At the same time, they have to decide what their policy will be on payed vs free transfers. They want to discourage people from doing the ‘switch to temp server while queues die down then switch back’.
We’ve been talking about having Realm Transfers, we have a 2PM go/no go as to if we’ll have this going live tonight. We’ll have both paid and unpaid Realm Transfers for ya’ll.
Since this is real time information, there will be more details later. (source)We’ll likely just prevent all paid transfers to the biggies (Hazak/Pergo) and never offer free ones there. (source)

Pago to Rowsdower

How to find WildStar Boom Boxes and Bonuses
WildStar fans who bought Deluxe Edition, and those who logged into the game every day during pre-order weekends as well as Open Beta, can collect bonuses and Boom Boxes from account bag, located in the bottom left corner of your screen. It’s a little present icon with a number on it. The number represents the quantity of Boom Boxes.
Boom boxes are account bound. When you click on the box, a pop up window will ask you are you sure you want to bind this to your character. After confirmation, a boom box will appear in your inventory. Just right-click on it and take your reward. You can open one box per day because there is a cool down of 21 hours. Rewards are random, and the first reward for my character was Pink Fury Dye.
WildStar Known Headstart Issues
Carbine team is currently investigating and tracking the following issues:
- Players are unable to view Realm List/Enter Realms
- Players are seeing extremely long queue times
- Players cannot speak/do not have permissions to use chat channels
- Players are missing their entitlement items (Boom Boxes, Pre-Order bonuses etc)
- Players cannot create characters/have less character slots than intended
- Players unable to create characters due to no UI being loaded after entering a Realm.
- Some users are seeing an Error 15 message preventing login.
POSSIBLE FIX: We recommend using a hard line into your Router (if possible) rather than a WiFi connection to see if this resolves the issue - A new EN-PvP Realm (Ravenous) has been opened to help alleviate traffic
- Users are reporting their Reserved names are not available.
- Some users are reporting they are being bounced between NA and EU, receiving a “No Valid Game Account” message.
Update: We’re still investigating the issue with “No Valid Game Account”.
More info as we have it.
