Is a wipe ? (merged topics)

  • if they make wipe they will lose a lot of players.

    They need players that will stay for a long time and pay, not free loaders that will jump the next game they see. So it's not a lose.

    I agree with.. if people reach end game how will they make money from game..

  • Black Desert Online had 2x CBT - which both had wipes, and Launched week later. It never had OBT here.


    Same with Archeage, it had CBT and OBT, and had a wipe prior to launch.

  • this is basically what was said before, just in more words.. cm has said since day 1 that there won't be a wipe if nothing goes wrong. doesn't take a genius to figure out they're talking about gamebreaking bugs, exploits, etc.


    they dont want to promise no wipe then find out some guilds have been exploiting a massive bug that ruins server balance or economy.

  • It's a beta and you're saying it will be a end for you if they wipe it?
    Do you know what the meaning of a beta even is?
    Every beta always has a wipe, Always. You should know that.

    I'd want a wipe, and that would be great if we had no energy to stop us from leveling up.

    Open beta != closed beta. Most open beta's that I have played don't wipe, but 99% of closed beta's do. In this case, SoulWorker went sort of the open and closed beta route. So it's unsure of what they will do

  • Just mass confusion

    Could of be avoided by just saying we're gonna wipe even if we dont have too.


    Now if they wipe they will lose 50% of there playerbase

    and if they dont wipe they will lose 50% of there playerbase


    GG another Publisher that just doesnt get it.

  • then they shoul do it, everyone who leaves just cause of a wipe has no interest in the game to begin with

  • It`s so sad when no one can say "Yes, It will be Wipe" or "No, It will not be Wipe" after dat time... I don`t understand Community Manage who don`t care about ppl, gamers, SoulWorker Community... In my opinion CM is for us(gamers) so CM should help us to communicate with GameForge or solve ours problem with the game... Today I do not see CM who wanna help us... CM wrote only "probably, probably" it isnt a answer for us. How long You can write it? Community Manage u should represent gamers opinion... We have a problem and You should solve it but You are only silent at the moment. We(gamers) wanna hear simple words "Yes/No" for wipe(?). Really, these simple words can change everything. I ask You(Commmunity Manage) only for understanding gamers and We need your help to solve our problem(wipe problem). Im sorry for my bad englando, Pasha London School <3

  • I love people like you, You're the person that is gonna make a post in the forum

    when there are not enough people playing the game and is wondering why.

  • Unlike you, i know exactly what i can expect from this game and what not it seems my friend^^

  • No official statement yet. They did say they are hoping to avoid wiping unless there is any serious technical issues though.

  • What a ridiculous thing to say. Most people who were part of the big MMO generation are now in their 20s and 30s and do not have that much expendable time and money when it comes to games so in order to choose an MMO that they dedicate their time and money to they must be sure about the competence of the publishers and devs so as not to end up playing an MMO that will die within a few months time.


    No interest in the game? They wouldn't have downloaded 4 gigs of pure bullshit if they weren't interested in the game in the first place. Open beta hasn't even been out for a month and we already got a pretentious elitist like you spewing out such bullcrap.


    It's not about whether they will be a wipe or not. It's about whether there's gonna be information/an announcement about a wipe or not. We don't want a "maybe there'll be a wipe, maybe there won't". We want either "There will be a wipe." or "There won't be a wipe" to properly gauge the amount of time we can properly invest in the open beta. And this isn't entitlement, it's just common protocol for publishers.

  • Adding onto Raikata's post (hi again) the Open Beta is just that, open for anyone. There's no real reason to wipe since everyone has access to the server now. The only reason a wipe would be necessary is if there were a game-breaking exploit or glitch that people used throughout open beta, but so far there doesn't seem to be one.


    I'm fairly certain there won't be a wipe, and I'm not going to fault the community managers for not being 100% sure either way, since it wouldn't be truthful imo. Whether there is a wipe or not, just make sure you don't spend any money on the game before it's released (or if they confirm no wipe) lol.

  • My only concern with GameForge was how P2w they would be, but this situation has been handled so unprofessionally...


    I wish literally anyone else was in charge of SW. Give me Nexon idc.

    Everything but Nexon pls, they ruined Vindictus isnt that enough?

    Oh yeah. They ruined every game that they touch, except for Maple Story.
