As we all know, there's going to be a new build of the beta released on June 29th. Does anyone know if our skills and ISK will be wiped for this new build? |

I have yet to see confirmation on the next build date (then again, I haven't been looking that hard) But, I have heard from someone that there will be a wipe on the next build. I am curious about this, but in all honesty, I could care less. We are going to have to suffer a wipe come full release anyway, so we might as well get used to it. |

I want to think I read that they said that they would be refunding all Aurum purchased the the account when they wipe characters out. If I find the post again, I will link it.
Found it: GM Unicorn wrote:The Aurum wallet is not shared between characters.All the Aurum that you acquire during the beta period can be used for in-game items. When the game will be released, your account will be reset and all the Aurum spent will be granted back in your AUR balance. If your Aurum problem persists, drop us a line! [email protected]

accounts being reset, does that include losing character names? or just zeroing them out to character creation with reserved name? |

pretty sure they said everything will be deleted, if you bought AUR it will be waiting for you on your account.

If he's getting the loopback to the login screen, tell him to use the 'Forgot password' thing on his PS3 to reset his password. It should fix it.

For starters, AUR is linked to your PSN account, so any AUR you buy now will also be refunded after every wipe, including the "final" wipe before launch. I'd assume you just decide which character to assign it to, just like when you bought it.
And as for names, There will be a full name wipe as well, since some people actually got names early on that are actually already existing in EVE. |

First thought were, not this old question again, but really, it is at least a little different.
It is a near certainty that skills and SP will be wiped at the end of the beta, but I hope that we will retain it through the beta. CCP need someone to test the heavy stuff, and people sill probably get a little tired of having to go through the same skill up process over and over again if they wipe too often.
At least, if they have to wipe skills for some reason during the beta (for DB changes etc) at least let us keep the most, or all of the SP as unallocated SP as a reward. |

No, they're wiping it for the next build. Part of that reason is likely to be them radically changing some of the skill multipliers around as well as things like SP earn rates and such. If you decide to change parts like that, you generally want to test them from a normal starting state to make sure the rate of acquisition as well as the progression upwards is still alright.
Plus I'm pretty sure they're actually going to be enforcing unique names across the EVE-DUST name space from here on out, which is the other reason why it's a complete character wipe. So be warned: if someone in EVE already has the name you're using, you might be out of luck and have to find a new one. |

Why do we have to loose our characters as well?
Really what's stopping me from changing my name into Grideris next time - I won't do it -
And what about the Forums: If my name is taken so are my ideas. |

The only thing stopping you from taking Grideris is the fact that there is already an EVE character with that name (which also happens to be my character, but still). Which is why I'll be losing it as my DUST mercenary's name. Remember, part of this change is that they're merging the name space, and since EVE is released and DUST isn't, EVE gets precedence. Though hopefully with the merge from here on out you'll be able to keep your character's name all the way into the final release. But that's not confirmed, and I guess we'll just have to wait and see what the devs say. |

That's the problem pal, the "wait and see" part.
I have asked CCP about keeping names 15 days ago and got no answer.
They answered, on another thread, 10 days ago saying that "We're looking into the feasibility of letting you keep the character(s) themselves past the beta, but I can't confirm this at this time."
The next buid is in 11 days away and we might loose our names, our ideas and all...unless CCP wipes these forums as well but frankly I don't see that happening. |

It is confirmed we are losing these names, but will have the option to recreate them (Presuming they are not taken in eve)
As for the forums... I'll poke around! I don't know yet, but last time they did a character wipe, the forums were archived in a private section only CCP can read, and wiped clean for the rest of us. |

So all of us have here have posted for nothing: we will have to start all over again.
I have spent my time here, I have spent HOURS of my life here trying to HELP just to see it all archived. |

Rest assured. It all has been seen!
Your time on the forums has been far from wasted, each week a summary of the forums gets sent to every department so they know where the players stand, what bugs are popping up, etc. While we may not be able to see them, the forums as we know them now will still very much exist and be accessible by the devs. We just won't be able to see them ourselves. At worst if the forums are wiped, we may see a host of 'duplicates' of the older threads as similar ideas get posted. |

Still we have no ways to tell if what we proposed will be considered or not.
We need to know if a particular feedback has been considered, at least not to re-proposee it.
I read already your list of features for the next build but so many things are missing.
We will have to wait for another built for sure so at least we must know if CCP has considered:
-Spawn Shields & alternative spawn methods.
-Reload while running.
-Better Sniper rifle.
-Prone
-Fire form passenger seat.
-VR training room.
-Customizable controls.
-More squad commands. (my feedback)
-Better melee/knife.
-Better Medic interface.
-Better grenade throw animation.
-More UI & HUD improvements.
-Jumpacks & jetpacks.
-Range Finder & range included it the attributes sheet.
-Aim assist on/off option.
-Solution to excessive bunny hopping & side strafing lamented by players.
-Improved respawn time.
-Nanite injectors problems.
-Running in merc quarters and other features.
-Asymptotic Active Skilling
-Beta vanity/pride
^^^
These are only some of the threads I read and none got a reply from CCP.
Very useful feedback form many people in all those threads, many concerns where expressed as well.
Once archived what will happen to them?
ATM there's no evidence that CCP read them, what hope do we have that they will be considered once archived |
