Are they gonna force us to make new characters for the ship update?

    Probably. I've put the game on hold for now until Chucklefish releases info on when there will no longer be character wipes. Though it concerns me slightly that maybe we'll never have that security with how much large updates they intend. That's not to say that's a bad thing either, but people in general tend to like consistency to some extent.

    People who complain about characters wipes should honestly not play.
    To be frank - you knew what you were getting your self into when you got a beta.

    Beta doesn't mean enjoy have fun its a completed product. - It means you test to the product for those people who are planning to buy the game after beta finishes to have a better product.

    Read back on the news feed a bit, they are trying to fix it where no more wipes are needed. But there will need to be at least 1 more before that. Sorry. ^.,^'

    from what ive been reading tiy is trying to get a function that requires content update without needing to do a character wipe.
    that being said he also said we have one or two more wipes before the content stream is a go

    I like it how you interpreted it as pointing to you.

    I was referring to in general of everyone who is against player wipes.
    Who are under the impression it is "unfair" to them.

    Forcing to make a new character. Last time I checked, requires previous characters to be wiped.
    Or to be specific "Unplayable"

    But it seems you own the forums and this thread. Must be a share holder it seems.

    I think that they should make this be the wipe they wanted to use. And then go forth from there to not wipe again until its fully released. Thats my thought on it.

    -Sighs- Sorry, Its beta. Wipes are to be expected, says so when you start the game. They have to wipe characters when they change a key factor in the characters themselves, when they implement racials, they will prolly need to be wiped. x.x So... Yeah, if you don't like wipes, wait a bit? Put playing off for a month or so maybe? There isn't much to tell you about the wipes, they are trying to make it where wipes are not needed, but.. yeah. Shiz happens.

    I don't care about the wipes

    But when they aren't wiping and they are forcing us to make a new character for every good update they do

    It just...no

    I understand this. But its needed. Having a wipe before release means that they can add in some final touches and then let everyone run wild after release.
