My understanding was that bonuses from events during earlier Beta testing would be permanent.
During the last wipe my 1M SP was there and now it is not.
I was hoping a Dev could explain the difference between what was promised and what actually happened. |

When I signed on they said all bonuses would hold over into the game.
The 1M SP was a bonus for participating in a specific event.
Seemed pretty clear to me when they did the wipe for Chromosome and it was still there. |

Sounds like you got a lucky break from a glitch. I've been in the beta since before the E3 build was released & they haven't carried over any of the ISK or SP rewards at all. They just reimbursed AUR, pack items, and event gear (like the skinweave suits). |

Yeah, must've been a glitch. I remember the event and getting the initial SP, but upon the previous reset it wasn't there for me and I don't think any of my corp mates had it either. Sorry you got your hopes up. |

If you want more SP shoot for the extra 100k from the headstart.
The real game just started. Everything else was just a dream. |

Dear players,
DUST 514 is about to enter its Open Beta stage on Tranquility. As part of the process, we will be resetting character stats and that means all skill points, ISK wallet, and items in your inventory will be reset to their original state. Your Aurum and Merc Pack items will be reimbursed to you after the character reset. Exclusive weekend beta event like GÇ£SkinweaveGÇ¥ dropsuits will also be rewarded to those whoGÇÖve participated in the weekend events at that time as well. The character reset is scheduled to occur on 10th of January.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.

So. How are skill points like Skinweave dropsuits?
They aren't. Skinweave suits were advertised as "permanent" items.
Just like the Black ops LAV. Even the runs of officer gear indicated they'd be reset after every wipe.
The rewards for global carnage were not advised as permanent in the event itself. The skinweave suits were clarified as items that would be renewed, but to my knowledge at no point was the community as a whole under the impression that the Isk rewards or SP rewards would be kicked back to us again. |

Thanks for the links.
I hate you being right almost as much as I hate being wrong.
I had thought that it went along with the rest of the Beta you keep it you earned it mind set. Sneaky CCP.
Global Carnage. Good Times. 1M SP, 1M ISK.
Sigh.
Sucks now. Game doesn't even work.
Hard to suck even a miserly little bit of SP through a broken straw.
That is tied into a tight knot.
Then melted.
And then taken away from you anyway.
Because it doesn't work.
Much better when you are rewarded for Carnage!
Global Carnage!
Sigh. |

The whole point of the reset was to prevent too much disparity between players at Launch.
Us closed beta people already get 10 days head start on people joining the open beta, not to mention map knowledge and a bunch of skills and practice.
AND>.... if you log in and play at least one game, you get a 100k SP bonus after downtime on the 21st.
So... stop QQ'ing.... you will be able to gorge yourself on noob tears come the 22nd. |

I realize all your points and accept them, I just remembered the keep the bonuses part and the glitch confused me. Since others didn't get keep their bonuses it probably was a glitch. Glad that I got to keep it until this last wipe.
Now, what do we do on the 21st?
Exactly.
Better yet, a link. I don't want to screw it up. Or remember something else wrong.
