Recommended Posts

Do you think its coming with the out of hand loot system .50 brought around ?

If every update means starting from scratch, it could take significantly longer for the devs to get feedback on changes and additions. Stop worrying about the jackasses who dupe or exploit the loot system; they'll get a cattle prod followed by liberal applications of brass knuckles shortly.

Play Experimental if you want a wipe with each update.  It's quite refreshing.

Because there is a new duping exploit, I'd bet a wipe is coming in the near future.

What I am more worried about is item inception, when will that be taken care of? It causes noticible lag when near players who do this. I couldn't care less if some guy has thousands of rounds of 5.56 ammo. But when that ammo is spread throughout 20 protector cases and high cap vests, ban his ass imo.

It's the exact opposite actually.  People with the exact same stuff killing fresh spawns all day long.  Starting people from scratch allows for loot distribution testing.

Well the wipe to be every other  update, or every third one, that would be good for testing results and honesty for players.

I would be fine, provided they actually fix the issues that lead to needing a wipe in the first place.  This problem was reported several times during the testing and yet, here we are.

I don't think there will be a wipe until they fixed more duping exploits or until the second iteration of the loot economy goes live. Unless they want to forec persistence on all public servers before but I doubt it.

Every update should be a wipe.

Damn i suggested this many many patches ago and i got flamed like bad BBQ for suggesting it lol. Really if people get the heads around the idea we are play testing an alpha rather than playing a game they may realize its actually not a bad idea to wipe every patch ( i believe it would help them test results specially when they start trying to balance the loot )

People will complain for any reason, at any time, no matter what.

A new character with every log in is fine with me as long as the server doesn't crash or restarts, my character dies from lag or falling through floors or other dumb things. Seems like an utopia though.

I don't think they will wipe characters going into .51. I wish they would.  I do see them wiping any persistance storage though.
