I belive so, as CCP want us to be able to test the higher levels of stuff easier 
What they dont want, is come release for people to have the ability to be in prototype gear within the first 2 days. That's something they want to be an achievement, possibly after a month or more of playing. |

The point is this isnt meant to be a game you max out in a month. It's one you're meant to commit to, spending years playing (like they said, to max out every skill currently will take around 7 years, when the SP gain is put to normal levels).
Edit: You 'can' try out every playstlye if you wish. Nothings stopping you. Don't expect to be a master at them all any time soon though. This is where 'Jack of all trades, master of none' comes in to play. And don't worry, everyone will be in the same boat as you The point is that, if someone specilises, thats great. They can fill a niche...but they're going to need help otherwise to take on people who specilised in a 'counter' to their own specialty. Jack of all trades people will be just as important and specilised guys. |

Reset as in the characters will be reset, as in we'll go back to 0 Not reimbursed, that only applies to AUR/promotional items |

Wicked Weasle wrote:You know everyone that is saying the reset is so beta participants dont have an unfair advantage are just contradicting the game. I mean if we have so much of a head start now how do you think the newbies who start playing dust a year from now will feel. It will be impossible for them to even kill anything. Especially with the huge damage boosters that weapon skills give right now. Also all the eve players will start giving their characters isk or at least rigging contracts so who has the unfair advantage now. This game is all about unfair advantages thats what makes the eve universe.
Theres a difference though. The skillpoints etc earned 1 year after release are done so using the release environment. Our skill points earned now are done in the beta environment, with bonus's, bugs, easy exploits and so on and so forth On release every game does a stat wipe, a. To reeven the playing field. b. make sure servers are synced properly. c. because it's release, i.e. the time when the game is considered 'a game'. Allowing beta players to keep all of their stats, XP and items gained over months of closed testing will give them an advanatge which is just as bad as a Pay to Win model really (altho, P2W 'does' give everyone the chance).
Seriosuly, if you're going to be butt hurt about losing your stats, I suggest you just stop playing now, and wait for release like all of the people who arn't fortunate to be in the beta with us right now. |
