Does anyone know when the next character wipe is?

    Just wondering because I have a glitch guy at the moment, but I was thinking of starting a new geezer, but... well I read somewhere that 2014 may have at least one more wipe coming, so I figured I'd wait.

    Anyone know?

    :) Thx

    There should be a wipe coming, along with a patch that will make further wipes unnecessary. However, no one knows when the final wipe will be, aside from that it will be sometime this year, it might not even be the next patch.

    Hey guys, what about this? It's from the newsletter posted today. Emphasis is mine:

    "Look out for the next big patch sometime over the next couple of weeks. It'll be a big one, and contains the much-anticipated final character wipe, among many other fixes and additions."

    EDIT: PHaeTH beat me for a minute...

    There will be no wipe. Devs made character files compatible with previous versions. Ships included.

    After the patch. The patch includes version settings to make things backward compatible. The save files we have now don't have them yet, hence the hope that it will be the last wipe, but this one will definitely wipe.

    No, they said the new patch will require wipe but after that it will be backwards compatible.

    It was confirmed there will be a final wipe so they can make characters/ships compatible going forward
