If they wipe everything I'll play Native instead. Pros of native:

- no grind
- no need to play for 4 hours straight
- no messy hitboxes
- no noobs in plate
- no permanent archers
- can change class any moment
- a lot more fast paced than c-rpg
- no stupid maps

Cons:

- i like this community and leaving you guys is a huge minus for native
- Native is boring (each time you dc you start from scratch)

I don't play Strategus much so c-rpg have few advantages over native for me.

Fixed

The dankey is the slayer of native, don't forget that.

It used to be easier to gain generations in earlier patches so people now adays starting gen 1 and "clawing" their way to the top have a much harder job. ( no stance on wipe though, I don't care either way. )

I'm gen 5 due to never retiring, the retro-active xp calculation, and having more invested into alts thrn I should.

Prepatch I was gen 3 for my main. I am very well used to having little or no xp bonus for all of my characters.
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

If they wipe now, they wont just lose like half of the players they already have, the main problem is that those players that are in a break, wont never be back again i believe. They actually put the retirement thing as a mean to control the growing population of levels 40+ and to avoid having to wipe anymore. Wiping now would be like a kick in the balls for most of the crpg population. Salute.

remove heirlooming aswell when your at it

That would be my ideal scenario (from the beginning) but since looms are already out there all the WoW type addicts would rage quit the game (and/or life). 

I always thought a game should be about your build (stats/skills and equipment selection) and in game abilities.  Not about how much pixel crack you can horde.

i'm ok for a wipe as long as the heirloom system and generations will be removed after that.

I'm gen 5 due to never retiring, the retro-active xp calculation, and having more invested into alts thrn I should.

Prepatch I was gen 3 for my main. I am very well used to having little or no xp bonus for all of my characters.

there is no big bonus even at high gens. in 2010, xp bonus at gen10 was like 170%. before april, xp bonus at gen10 was something like 95% if i recall correctly. now xp bonus at gen13 is a laugh... something like 15-20% at gen 13

the max tick you can get per minute these days on high gen is 1450 iirc, so not that big deal

The populace wants blood.


And it was proved countless times that persistant worlds have to be wiped from time to time. Or new, similar-working worlds have to be created (in cRPG that would mean a new player db). Otherwise they usually become too harsh for the beginner. This problem exists in cRPG, but is far from being critical.
this doesn't apply to crpg because of the retire system. Only a few people are more than 31. When people will get tired of retiring that may be a problem. But in fact ,the skip the fun thing (spending time with no xp) and the respec thing (it just make me mad how much people use it : "Hello guy even if you loss only one level when you are 31 it is still Half your experience busted so half of the time you spend grinding ito the trash !!!")

no. the level 30 build is say, 21/18 with zero IF (due all the skill conversions). the level 33 build is 21/18 with maxed IF, extra points in cavalry or shield...

there is no difference  :)
