Is a wipe ? (merged topics)

    Yes. It seems very strange now if they don't wipe. The silence, all the server issues, etc.


    Please just announce that wipe(s) are coming so we all can just move on about thinking on this.


    Thanks.

    I would favor the wipe. I'm using this time to try out things and finding bugs, report them, help the game become complete once it's officially released.

    Also by wiping and giving an official Release Date prior to release (like 1 week) would let people have closure about the topic that the "launch" wasn't announced early enough. Also people, if they want to, have the opportunity to prepare themselves and be ready for the launch, unlike this beta test.


    A wipe means a clean start. The people currently could boost themselves super far ahead due to the free CS items. Of course this might as well be intended to reduce population in lower areas and have a more spread out start.


    But yeah, I am definetly for a wipe.

    People test this game in Japanese version done. You think that we want to play again, especially with the stamina system ? It would be disgustingly boring. What to be left behind. We'll all meet in the end game. Or pay real money and play faster.

    Not everyone played the Janpanese or any different Version of the game. And you shouldn't assume they did either. If a game is boring, don't play it. It's either fun, no matter how many dungeon you run, or not.

    The problem =


    Say we wipe = No problem

    Say we dont wipe = No problem

    Being vague and say maybe = Big Problem.

    Say we wipe = if it's not needed and we don't = problem

    Say we don't wipe = if it's needed and we do = problem


    I understand your point of view but I can't give any answer if I don't have confirmation / fixed decision based on technical aspects. You will be clearly informed as soon as we can if a wipe is planned or not.

    I've seen that there we no similar posts for the english community so I decided to share this piece of information here.

    The german CoMa said, as the others aswell, that there is no wipe confirmed yet. He adds that the necessity is unknown.
    BUT he also says additionally that if there is a wipe it'll be in the first few days (of the Open Beta release). There won't be a wipe after 'a few weeks'.

    So we'll find out if there'll be a wipe soon enough.

    (The german post is in the attachments)

    I understand, but the longer you wait the more serius it becomes.

    don't think if you don't need to wipe, and you still do is probably more safer.

    most of us come from a game that has always been vague on information

    or on the actions they made, it cost them 75% of there playerbase.


    I'm not here to bash your game or your publishing skills, i would like the game to be succesfull.

    Thanks for the information. Interesting how the german CoMa at least gave something out when our En CoMa doesn't have anything else to say.

    If we have to wipe, it won't be after a long time. We have to see first if everything is fine (well, I'm not talking about the login issue right now :/) and then we can give you a confirmation. We will try to provide more info as soon as possible but not today sorry. Thank you for your patience!

    But still, we can't confirm yet when or if a wipe will occur.

    Alright from what I've been told.


    They are doing everything they can to prevent a scenario in which they have to wipe, cause that would be god awful.


    So far no major issues that would require a wipe, so far the negativity is stemming from people getting disconnected, unable to join server, unable to play, and that's it lol.


    So most of them are just upset that they can't play. But once that's out of the way Soul Worker is a great game.


    I liked how the EP system stops you and forces you to take a break which also allows you to socialize with other players to form a community.


    I also love how they further this aspect of the game by introducing EP Mats which allows up to 4 players to sit together on it and regain EP over time. 1 EP for every minute for 30 minutes max.

    Basically they can't confirm^ because they haven't discovered a huge issue with the game yet that would require it, but once it's been found or exploited beyond the point of no return, then they'd have to resort to a wipe.


    So basically they are waiting to see if there will be any MAJOR problems before they can wipe, if none are discovered or found, then there won't be a wipe.


    So their goal is not a wipe, but to find and prevent major issues that could arise which will then lead to a wipe. So they don't want a wipe either.


    Right? o -o

    If I find a bug, I will not admit it... hehe :P:D
