[Massaka_Schoasch 0]

Hey community,

 

I heard that there will be a Character reset in the next patch or at least in the first Quartal. Does anyone have a more precise Information?

For me it does, because I won't waste 10h on fully equipping my char if he gets reset right after that.

Firstly don't get attatched to your gear, ever !

To answer the question, not that I'm aware of.

 

Keep in mind that if there is to be a global character reset the Devs will announce beforehand.

If they fail to do so I will issue infraction points  :D

Devs mentioned it in weekly report. It will happen when devs fix duplication issues. I think they will let you know the time before they do it.

Still dont see how it really matters  much at all, anyone can um reset your character at any time with just one bullet so again ,really what does it matter.

 

PS what takes you 10 hours to find?? takes about an hour at worst 2 to be pretty much fully geared (minus if your a chopper hunter looking for m4's which honestly doesnt really give you much of an advantage its more wank factor..

Yeah I can get no Information when i will get hit by a bullet but i can get Information if they reset, so for me it does matter.

 

hm fully geared means smersh vest stey/m4 with scope supressor and so on, ghillie, just everything

This. Also, I'm not sure heli hunting and M4s counts entirely as 'wank factor'. I get a lot of satisfaction looking for and finding crashes, and trading what I find there, rather than running around killing and being killed. It's just a different play style.

Firstly, at the start of the year we will look at performing a wipe of the hive.

Nothing wrong with collecting if its what you enjoy but how does a character reset effect you ?? i mean if your a collector a chance to start your collection again should be interesting yes?? Seems a silly thing to worry about in a game where bugs and players will kill you starting you over again.

 

Oh the M4 is really wank factor its rare its effective but the rarity is what makes it wank factor its not a practical weapon due to rarity of it its ammo and clips, doesnt mean you shouldnt collect it if thats what your into .

 

As for the PvP thing strange i actually prefer finding players to trade with but i do it in game meaning they very well may shoot me, i have to be ready for anything makes it fun. This often results in PvP due to the large portion of kill anything players... But the times i have traded it has been things more like fishing hooks binocs ammo for common guns , you know more survival related things , strange i know in a survival game, But your right its different play styles and different mind sets i KNOW its an alpha meaning they can by bug or need of hive wipe reset my character so i dont feel the need to ask if its going to happen nor change how i play when i do know its going to happen.

I find it to be a very practical weapon. Once you're an effective heli hunter (which, I admit, is more difficult that it has ever been) and have two, three or more mags, ammo is actually  pretty common if you know where to find it. Right now I have six full mags and 240 spare rounds in my ammo box.

 

And the modular nature of the gun means it can cover lots of different ranges and contexts just by swapping attachments.

No offence OP but you represent all that is wrong with those playing Alpha. We are early access to test the game, not to have a pissing contest on how much equipment we can loot.

 

It's fair enough to ask about character wipes, but your logic being that it would "waste" 10 hours of gameplay, those 10 hours should be used helping the devs make the game better so wouldn't be "wasted".

It's only practical if you run around looking for helicopter crashes all day. Whatever you're into, I guess.

Thank you for actually bothering to look into this instead of just playing stupid like some people. This is exactly what I was going to post. This thread can be locked now, in my opinion -- the OP got his question answered and there really isn't anything else to discuss since it hasn't been formally announced when it will occur.
