Zion Shad ZionTCD Legacy Rising 1620	Posted - 2012.11.12 21:15:00 - [1] - Quote Do you want a wipe with the next build? With the tourney out of the way, the next big thing to look forward to is the new build coming up. Now from what I gather it is planed with no wipe in mind. So my question to the community is GÇ£ do you want a SP/ISK wipe with the new build?GÇ¥ Please try to list why. Note: Keep in mind a wipe might mess with CEOs levels with his/her Corp and TQ wont be out tell 2013
Berserker007 Imperfects Negative-Feedback 206	Posted - 2012.11.12 21:19:00 - [2] - Quote Yes/no. Id like to see isk stay, and sp too, but have them put all your sp into unallocated, so u can try new things w,/ the sp you have instead of starting from scratch AGAIN

Note: Keep in mind a wipe might mess with CEOs levels with his/her Corp I had assumed with the next build there would be a wipe. Until now it hadn't really crossed my mind. I personally wouldn't mind a wipe, having deleted two characters that held AUR items and having exhausted the AUR stockpile i had acquired. I think for new players especially, they can kind of look forward to the wipe with each build, because it is a semi-fair playing field(minus skill). And i am all for new players. I currently feel like i fight against the same people day in and day out, and would love to see newer players encouraged to play more. I would also think it would be hard to test the flaylock pistol, or scrambler rifle(any new weapon additions) effectively if you were bringing them into a build where you see maxed out AR proficiency ect. The learning curve on them would be pretty hard, if their playstyle is any different at all. As far as the ISK wipe. Yes. After the SISI EVE ISK debacle, i think it is a necessity. Especially if CCP wants a through test of the way the market is working as is. There were/are, I know the tournament took out a fair share of these, but there were parties involved that were not involved in the tournament resulting in a lot of stockpiled dropsuits/vehiciles ect. It didn't take very long for the corps to get rolling either, so i don't think we should look at that as a deterrent anyways. EDIT: TL;DR Yes
Rorek IronBlood ZionTCD Legacy Rising 746	Posted - 2012.11.12 21:35:00 - [4] - Quote Hm. To be honest, I would like a wipe with the next build. However either way I am unaffected I suppose. I want a wipe so that I can test out other variants and gear, but I would like them to be able to compensate coporation CEO's with enough skill points so that they can build up their corporations again a bit quicker then this build. Like I said though eitherway I do not mind. Personally though my problem is with lack of content, and substance at the moment in-game. Granted it's a beta. Understandable. Just a little too slow for my taste though. No player market, missing items, lack of racial diversity. It certainly is a mess. Simple answer though? I do not mind a wipe, but I would like to see as I said CEO's be gifted the corporation skills, or given enough skills points to set themselves up again.
Sha Kharn Clone Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 1087	Posted - 2012.11.12 21:43:00 - [5] - Quote Wipe it all please.
Th3rdSun L.O.T.I.S. Legacy Rising 323	Posted - 2012.11.12 21:58:00 - [6] - Quote I honestly don't care one way or the other. I do think it would be interesting to see what would happen if we didn't have a wipe,in relation to players coming in new starting from zero.It could be a good indication of how the game will work once it's out of beta an we are playing for real.when new players come in a month into the launch.
Garrett Blacknova Codex Troopers 1849	Posted - 2012.11.12 22:07:00 - [7] - Quote I'd prefer NOT to see a wipe, personally. It'll be nice to let a few people build up crazy piles of ISK and see how they come up with new and interesting ways to spend it. Also, some of the less skilled and/or casual players showing up in protogear might be nice for once, instead of only the hardcore crowd. Not particularly concerned either way, though. According to a thread a few days ago, the devs said they weren't planning a wipe until we move to another server. Post included a partial IRC transcript. Not much, but it's something.
Tyrus 4 Amarr Templars Amarr Empire 83	Posted - 2012.11.12 22:07:00 - [8] - Quote I'd like one. Just cause I'd like the chance to rebuild my other character that I messed up. I know how I want him specced now, so I'd like the chance to follow through on that rather than using a new character.
Knightshade Belladonna Villore Sec Ops Gallente Federation 288	Posted - 2012.11.12 22:07:00 - [9] - Quote I say yes. Reason being that with changes to test, we need to see how it operates from floor level.. not when a big part of community is more advanced than what some of the new mods and suits will be at a lower level, so you cant gauge their uses and power as easily. And with the huge stockpiles that people aquired from the isk transfers , that were not intended and put to a hault, it needs to be put back on a balanced playing field in that perspective. Oh and I would love to fully spec myself in the right **** this time :) ( this being the smallest reason ) my thoughts
Free Beers Internal Error. Negative-Feedback 1032	Posted - 2012.11.12 22:20:00 - [10] - Quote no wipe till we move to TQ is whats stated. Hell 5 weeks in and I barely have 5 mill sp

I like this idea of accelerated learning for the corporation skills, If it can be implemented during a beta wipe it would help alot.
tango 45 Doomheim 2	Posted - 2012.11.12 22:23:00 - [12] - Quote Wipe, just because i like people crying.
Sleepy Zan Internal Error. Negative-Feedback 2047	Posted - 2012.11.12 22:23:00 - [13] - Quote I'm gonna have to say no to the wipe for the new build, this isn't like previous builds. SP grind is so slow a a wipe will be too counter productive imo.
DJINN leukoplast Hellstorm Inc League of Infamy 288	Posted - 2012.11.12 22:30:00 - [14] - Quote If I was using any other account than my main (not this one), then no I wouldn't want a wipe. But since my main account, leukoplast, is so plagued with problems do to my contact/block list, I would prefer a wipe so I could start using this account to play which barely has any issues at all since it has a clean contact/block list. I can play pretty much an entire night on a different account with only minor lag here and there, but with my main I am lucky to get 3 or 4 ambush matches in succession, or 2 or 3 skirmish matches before succumbing to the dreaded frame-rate of hell. Maybe I will get lucky and CCP will fix the problems I am having with my main on the next build, in which case I will be glad things were not wiped. Nothing being reset is the ideal situation for testing, as it will give players a chance to really start to use the top-tier stuff and really belt out some skill upgrades. With all the periodic resets, players really could only get so far, which from a testing perspective, isn't covering all the bases.
HowDidThatTaste Imperfects Negative-Feedback 2242	Posted - 2012.11.12 22:32:00 - [15] - Quote No wipe we have barely scratched the surface this round of SP. I am tired of not being able to reach highher levels of suits cause of the early wipes. Let it ride.
Knightshade Belladonna Villore Sec Ops Gallente Federation 288	Posted - 2012.11.12 22:34:00 - [16] - Quote what some people need to take into consideration is how it effects the community as a whole, and not just yourself.
Valmar Shadereaver Lost-Legion 18	Posted - 2012.11.12 22:39:00 - [17] - Quote im hoping on all sp/isk stay but that sp that isent in corp managment goes to unacolated so that we can keep corp's and put the sp in stuf your going to use cause im sure alot of ppl got several uneeded skill's or want a difrent role altogether
Skihids Tritan-Industries Legacy Rising 969	Posted - 2012.11.12 22:45:00 - [18] - Quote No wipe so I can test the new pilot suit immediately rather than having to spend four weeks skilling back into dropships. We can also test the dropship/swarm mechanics changes right away so there is more time to tweak them before the next build.
m621 zma Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 22	Posted - 2012.11.12 23:01:00 - [19] - Quote Another wipe would be painful.
Fivetimes Infinity Immobile Infantry 1086	Posted - 2012.11.12 23:03:00 - [20] - Quote I am awfully tired of starting from zero.

KAGEHOSHI Horned Wolf Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 3064	Posted - 2012.11.12 23:04:00 - [21] - Quote I would like a wipe, gets everyone back on an equal playing field (at least for a while).

Vrain Matari ZionTCD Legacy Rising 404	Posted - 2012.11.12 23:12:00 - [23] - Quote I normally prefer sp/isk wipes, mainly because I like to see the playing field leveled, however briefly, for new players. This time around i'm voting the other way because it's been awhile since we've been able to test the upper echelons of our various builds, and a lot has changed since we were all running around in proto everything. There are a lot of new skills that haven't been tested at the upper levels, and we're just now getting a handle on squad and team compositions, vehicle/infantry balance, etc. I think DUST would be well-served if we took some time to seriously explore the upper levels of what is possible. In fact, I propose that when the new build drops the Devs give us all a bonus 3 million skillpoints. This is really to help the new players survive, as well as to get vets a little deeper into their skill trees. Run the beta like this for 3 weeks and THEN do a sp/ISK/AUR wipe/reset and let us start from scratch. Run the build for ~4-6 more weeks after that. We've all learned a lot about how to be effective mercs, let's see just how much we can exploit and twist the game at higher skill levels.

Ops Fox ZionTCD Legacy Rising 197	Posted - 2012.11.12 23:16:00 - [25] - Quote first were looking at 2 or 3 weeks till the next wipe/build so i complete support a wipe so i can properly skill my characters and so i can get back merc pack gear that was wasted so im all for a wipe
Scheneighnay McBob Bojo's School of the Trades 1058	Posted - 2012.11.12 23:18:00 - [26] - Quote Wipe it all. Or maybe just wipe ISK and AUR, and let us keep SP. At least reset the stuff I got from my merc pack.
Maffia- Thug 3dge of D4rkness SoulWing Alliance 62	Posted - 2012.11.12 23:37:00 - [27] - Quote Wipe it all. Why not? When the game gets released it is all going to be wiped anyway.
xMarauder Doomheim 139	Posted - 2012.11.12 23:40:00 - [28] - Quote I say yes to the wipe. It would give everyone who started late this build a chance to get on equal sp footing with everyone else.
