Beta3 Wipe.

Postby Vikinger » Mon Oct 06, 2014 3:48 pm

Saw this post from Michael on the forums.

" There's no wipe planned for release, but there will be for gamma.

For Beta 3 it hasn't been decided yet, but looking at the changes planned a partial wipe is almost certain and a full wipe likely.

Michael "


So I assume we get a new wipe 31 October.
This will definitely affect how much iam gona play in Beta2.


And a question.

Have anyone had problem with the bulletin board, that its empty, and no missions shows up?
It happened for me today. Suddenly the bulletin board was empty and now I've visited 13 different system with same problem. Broken trading and now broken bulletin board. Not much of a choice to make credits now,,,

Haven't been in-game today, so don't know about the bulletin board.

Yeah, I plan on wipes between every phase, so as not to get too attached/disappointed. :)

I have noticed this but I don't know how much it persists as I have to stop playing because of freezes.

I've seen it empty a few times. I assumed it was caused by people working on the server.

Vikinger: I noticed empty bulletin board in one system during weekend, every other system was alright (not sure which one, it was one hop from 14 Herculis). It probably depends where are you flying.

Aye. ive been exploring a bit and ventured out to the opposite side from where we start and about halfway I noticed that bulletin board didn't offered any missions. So I had to move back, closer to the systems from Beta1 and missions showed up again.

im guessing that its going to be a partial wipe, the time between beta 2 and 3 is to short. so im guessing that commanders will keep credits and reputation.

im also guessing that we will see the full release into public gamma by the 20th December.

I think its gona be earlier than 20 December. Its not that smart to release a game so close to Christmas and all holidays as they must have staff to sort out bugs and problems, at least the first week, before they can even think of any holiday :)
So my guess is middle of December.

I plan on playing the game more after gamma as personally the wiping of progress is frustrating.

So mainly I just play now a little, but not for serious progression.
