@CompleatBeet I am sure they just assumed being cross platformed people would not leave their accounts or systems to just switch up their platform because its implemented. This is quite normal practice for some games.
While people feel account sync is easy some must understand this is well over 70 million accounts. Even if people dont play those accounts no more the sync still needs done in case they was ever to log in. Can you imagine the workd load it takes to sync over 70 million accounts? 70 million it self was made when apex launched. Imagine now with new players and smurfs.
I am sure there will be thoughts about it in the future down the line but this is a lot work even with scripts doing some loads for them it still would take months upon months. Cause not only does it have to be coded and programmed but it also would need mass testing to ensure it wont bug things and or strip rewards / forget to add.
So this is not just a click of a button deal this is more work at this time def from home then anyone can fathom.
