They want to minimize resets, so I wouldn't really listen to anyone saying yes or no until it comes from a dev. The last one happened largely because of us changing over to Singularity, I believe.

CCP has directly said on these boards that every new build is getting a character reset.Unless they have changed their minds,it's pretty much common knowledge that that's what they are going to do.

Will you cry if they do wipe characters?
Cause if yes, I want them to do it.

I've been wiped by CCP many times already just to work the SP back up.

I will love it when i never have to do it again.

There will be one more reset when we deploy the next release. We are doing some backend changes as well as moving to TQ, so there's unfortunately no way around it. On the bright side, there shouldn't be any more resets afterwards, unless something goes catastrophically wrong :)

next build is on TQ? as in the build coming this month?
ughh @ another wipe so soon srsly , hard to test stuff when u gotta constantly restart :/

also what about release? no wipe on release for official release?

Just to point out, for free-to-play games it's common for the open beta phase of testing to be kind of like an early release and not have a wipe at its conclusion. So it would make sense if the next build marks the end of closed beta and, thus, the end of character wipes.

Just to clarify, "release" in my vocabulary refers to the next patch, not launch. This is to say that the next wipe should be the last one if everything goes according to plans.

If I happen to make some horrible economic tuning decisions though, well, then all bets are off..

Well damn, i am anticipating like 3 or 4 resets sence we cant even get into matches everytime right now.

Not to mention most of the time a match will not complete and drop everyone to the merc quarters

should

Your choice of phrasing does not instill confidence!

Yeah, sorry about that. We're working hard to fix the stability issues both with the client and the servers, so hang tight. Things should get better.

Trust me, this stuff is not easy to fix. If it was it been fixed by now. Were probably looking a couple hundred man hours into the issues.

So, they will reset one more time for the next patch, and then no more character wipes? Even including launch?

Na, i do not bye that garbage. When there are HUGE problems like we have now and have had for months and they still are not fixed. But in the meantime we have had corp vs. corp battles inplimented, enhanced graphics (and the brief footstep sound the in the match waiting room)............ but still the match making and match finishing "program" cant work 100% of the time we have something wrong.

I seriously don't understand why people are complaining. Why are everybody so attached to their beta character. Nothing is final. If you have been investing time into your character expecting to keep it all then you are being very foolish.

IF they have not fixed stuff the REALLY need to be fixed by now i see no hope for the future.

No one cares if they get reset. No one wants to waste their time trying to play a game when they can only get into games 1/3 of the time.

^ this , but I do like my name it's the first good one I ever came up with

the 1 mill reward for winning the corp battles CCP.....give it to us after the wipe not before

Honestly. You people want devs to post here more often, yet you act like they are trying to scam you. They're building a game, they can't guarantee something won't mess up, so they can't say for sure whether something will happen or not. Quit acting like this, why would anybody want to ever speak to you when you quote him, and tell him because he said "Should" it doesn't instill confidence.

Either listen to the devs, and quit complaining, or shut the hell up about wanting them to post here more often. On the IRC, we ask questions, we tell them stuff. We don't complain, call them names, or continue on about one problem in particular.

Although, I highly doubt that's the reason they don't post here often, I know it'd help getting them here more, if you actually helped them, rather than bitched. Unless, of course, you want to code the whole game yourself, mail it to them, and let them take it as their own.
