Kill3rAce Amarr Templars Amarr Empire 9	Posted - 2012.08.02 13:10:00 - [1] - Quote Hey, Everyone This might be the wrong section. As I was playing last weekend I kept hearing from a lot of people that we would get a new build in August and they would wipe the characters again. Is there any truth to that? I logged in this morning and didn't see an update and my character seems to be fine. I'm still happy just testing and enjoying the game, but if someone could set me straight that would be appreciated Thanks
dust badger BetaMax. 283	Posted - 2012.08.02 13:13:00 - [2] - Quote i think the only official word is that there will be a wipe on launch and probably one in between that and the new build is coming out in aug weather its next week or in 3 weeks time we dont know CCP are keeping us in the dark, as when they last promised something they failed and everyone was raging
Laheon Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 153	Posted - 2012.08.02 13:14:00 - [3] - Quote Speculation says for next weekend. You'll have a character wipe before that. All skills, isk, etc gone, but you'll get the AUR you spent back. I've also heard a rumor that we're keeping the SP we gained from beta events.
Grit Breather BetaMax. 660	Posted - 2012.08.02 13:15:00 - [4] - Quote Also, there's going to be a major update for EVE next week. We'll probably get our Dust update at the same time and have a properly set up link between EVE and Dust.
Rukumin o Nerd Herd o 15	Posted - 2012.08.02 13:23:00 - [5] - Quote Last I heard there will be no more character 'wipes' done. But they will do at least one more character reset before launch. If they choose to do more resets until then, well that's up to them. The diff between wipe and reset is that on a character reset you keep your character, but theyre stats and skills and stuff are reset to what they were at the start.

Mobius Wyvern BetaMax. 1216	Posted - 2012.08.02 13:27:00 - [8] - Quote I was -pretty- sure they said that there wouldn't be anymore wipes until launch, since the only reason they did the wipe last time was to sync up our character names with the EVE ones, so they needed to clear all our accounts out first, since some players were just using their EVE names here.

As one of the previous posts in this thread stated, there will be no more wipes. There will, however, be at least one resets. That means you can keep your face and name but say goodbye to your SP and assets.

Kill3rAce Amarr Templars Amarr Empire 9	Posted - 2012.08.02 13:36:00 - [11] - Quote Alright well it seems we still have a little ways to go. THanks for the heads up and I got to no problem with them erasing SP and assets. Hope to see an update ASAP

People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it. Fifteen hundred years ago everybody knew the Earth was the center of the universe. Five hundred years ago, everybody knew the Earth was flat, and fifteen minutes ago, you knew that humans were alone on this planet. Imagine what you'll know tomorrow.

That was the reason for the last wipe.

There is nothing DUST related in SISI at this time.
Ender Storm Amarr Templars Amarr Empire 50	Posted - 2012.08.02 16:32:00 - [19] - Quote The only thing I would expect going from a beta to a released game is perhaps conserving a name/character. I totally expect everyone starts on the same grounds, with wiped SP and expect to see a "gold rush" of sorts of people evolving, getting together and going for their homes / territories. Having the beta population to start with such a headstart could be damaging to the game in general, when the doors are open to the general public.
Bresker Veyne Algintal Core Gallente Federation 152	Posted - 2012.08.02 16:44:00 - [20] - Quote Nah, hell no, beta players should get a title or a fancy (cosmetic) suit or something. But to let us keep our SP would make us WAY too much ahead of new players.

Laheon Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 153	Posted - 2012.08.02 16:46:00 - [21] - Quote If you've participated in every beta event this build, I think you'll be given a free scout and logi dropsuit BPO. That means unlimited run dropsuits. I don't think they'll be much better than militia suits, though.
Uncle AWOL Protheans BetaMax. 38	Posted - 2012.08.02 16:47:00 - [22] - Quote Ok. this all the info. when the new build comes out there WILL be a character "reset" (which means wipe but you supposedly keep your character) something about being connected to "sisi" there will also be another weekend event(or maybe seeing as how no one got the SP and isk from last weekend will probably be that 1 mil sp and isk the week before the reset that will give you 1mil SP and 1mil isk AFTER the reset.
