Indeed, defeats the purpose of a full database wipe if people are saving their characters. :X

just confused i guess.
When i read that wipes can happen even after the or code goes live. What would cause another wipe? If they fix something, can't they just update the files on the server and the client with out a wipe? like fix a bug with a profession |

After they remove them, wipes probably wont be as frequent.

Example 1: New code made to "fix" the way a character's HAM is calculated and there are 1,000 toons on the server, and this new code would need to be applied as a patch, it is easier and faster to wipe the character database rather than patch all 1,000 characters. One file is made rather than making 1,000 individual patches to each character file. Example 2: Same can be said of resources. IF a certain resource does not work as intended and 500 people have that resource rather than patching the ground code were that resource is and all the characters holding it, 1 patch file is inserted after a wipe. Its always harder and more time consuming to patch all the characters in the database rather than wiping it. Hope this helps.

It's not about saving toons during a code update, it's that it's easier to test things with a fresh database, toons, resources and spawns included. :P

People we are the lucky ones here that are helping to test out a game that is literally rewriting and creating MMORPG history! Trust me I know, I am a gaming development student at Devry and I wrote a thesis on Emulators and it's development that got me a A+.

But you won't get blue frogs when initial testing is done. Eventually, they'll have everything that was in Nova back in place, and you'll have to regrind everything again without the assistance of blue frogs. :P
