Title: Total wipe
Post by: gazda on July 12, 2011, 09:22:39 am
There have been a lot of changes recently and with the new strategus it it not fair for some players to have these advantages. So what i was thinking(yes it hurt a bit but i handled it) , there should be a full wipe everyone starts at gen 1 lvl 1 without their looms, but also everyone starts with 3 loom points so they can choose what weapon they will master and play, that would help to keep players less hybrid-like.

My men are slacking me on skype for often talking about the necessity of a full wipe but I'm glad that at least one of 'em agrees with me.  :wink:

Yes, it would be great, and no, it won't happen :)

I have a certain rage treshold, and it's been crossed long ago.

That's the opposite of what a wipe represents.

I am only supporting a total wipe if cRPG goes out of beta and is considered Version 1.0 or higher. In this scenario, a total wipe with small rewards handed out to long time beta testers would be nice.

Otherwise...

Go die in a fire <3

But you do not play with your cRPG gear in Strat..

And this comes from player that has way too many generations on his character.
I think very few players have more looms than me.

Well maybe Kesh and Fasader.
But Kesh got lucky with the last patch xp to loom calculating method.
And Fasader stole he's  :evil:)

Anyway i for one would welcome a fresh start for all.
What can be more equal than complete wipe!

Ah, peasant wars. "Hand me, the holy hand grenade!" *Gets a rock* "Eeexcellent.. now who shall die first?"

My main reason against a wipe is that when a patch hits, it requires characters from all levels to properly test it out to find out what is "broken" and what is not.

If we wipe, this would be substantially harder to find "broken" things in a quick amount of time.

Save the wipe for then everything is "finished" and give small rewards to long-time players.

Very hard to believe, considering even with a constant X5 tick at base 1450 XP this is going to take you a very very very long time... Luck too, will be amazing. Back in the days of Kesh having a base 10,000 XP (Gen 91 right?), I might have believed this, but alas those days are over

ok maybe not lvl 29, but in a day, i can reach 23, and at 23, you can carry your equipment.

lets face it there will have to be a wipe at one point sooner or later so why not sooner, get the rage and QQing out of the way and start over because as we know some people are to hight a gen and have to many looms (thoses that do will post saying its not fair and its bs) I agree now is a bad time to do it with what I think is a bad XP system and since the patch was just released  ad some things are still really buggy and need to be fixed. But we will need a wipe at one point just not now perhaps.

so it can be more balanced right?

Ok let me see,so a "veteran" player that has around 10 heirlooms and has spent more than 500 hours will lose all his items,generations,everything for 3 loom points.
And the new player will get also the 3 loom points without losing anything and without even spenting some time? great idea lol

And why should there be less hybrids,they're the fun of the game  :o

I think giving everyone 3 loom points is stupid and unfair to old players like you said, but i agree for a total wipe though......in the future
