[Re-Revised] TC:NOVA Wipe Proposal

[butjer100]

I am just not very convinced a wipe will fix anything, only 2 months after the wipe we will know hehe .. but ..
I guess just would vote ' I decide whatever the DEVS emselves like best and what would help OR server best' if we had that option )

I honestly want a wipe but I think others are right when they say lots of people will leave. Although it doesn't appear to be the majority, losing that much of the community could be very hurtful. I just think for the good of keeping the community at a good size you hold off.

Also I should just throw it out there that swg gamers are probably still fragile from the CU/NGE and are probably not as accepting to large change. Nerfs always split of communities. Just imagine what people will do with one this large. No this isn't a nerf per say but having everything you worked on removed without incorperating something to make up for it (ie OR), seems like a nerf and will absolutely cause a lot of anger and quitters.

Wipe it:
1.)It's a test center, more for experimental purposes than just for fun.
2.)It will be nice to start on equal footing when the OR comes out

I think bringing new things to the test center without wiping it will cause us to miss more problems if not cause more problems...

Question to those in the know:

With this wipe, will jedi lightsaber schematics be altered so their damage is more realistic to that of a Pre-CU lightsaber?

Then the damage ratio for each skill special can be adjusted back to normal?

Agreed. Everyone knows this server isn't permanent / long term. A wipe should be done to help further the progress of the emulator. A wipe for the sake of a wipe, or a wipe for the sake of making some crying nubs happy doesn't solve anything, not does it further the progress of the community.

The devs should do whats best given the circumstances. Only they know if they've created fixes for dupes and what not. A wipe without fixes means we'll end up right back at the same spot. (Thus making a wipe pointless!) I'll leave it up to them to make the right decision.

about these people saying they will leave, well let them leave they are the wrong type of people to have on a test centre.

I voted no. IMO fixing exploits and hacks, while an important task, doesn't merit a wipe. If additional features like, housing, harvesters and containers were implemented I would be inclined to say yes.

With an impending wipe happening when the OR is ready why not just wait till then.

Just my $.02

No. I just begun playing the game.

I think we should all give due to the devs work and their recommendation that a wipe be enacted in order to move to the next stage.

Does a wipe irritate grinders? Heck yes. Will the wipe move progression toward more features? Yes, according to the devs.

I accept that the latter is more important to the goal of getting a final server system working so we may install working servers to support the communities awaiting a full, working SWGEMU.

I honestly think that too many people are voting yes or no to this whole thing without enough information. There are too many "I vote yes IF" or "I vote no UNLESS" statements on here. I propose a closure of this thread, the devs work out the details, then post up a full OFFICIAL poll once all the details are ironed out. As it is I know about 200 or more people had voted before the "Revision" took place and gave more info... So maybe call this an Opinion poll and use it as a means of saying "ok x% says they'd be for it so let's work out some concepts" then put the official poll up say... a week from now?

To clarify my earlier post about getting one shotted as a Jedi fully buffed with full mods with a rifle... it wasnt a rifle. It was a carbine. Since when can you one shot someone with 2850 mind with a carbine?

erm 3450 health rather.

This is why in SOE SWG pre-cu there were damage and speed caps and looted weapons beyond cdef and anything a marksmen would use didn't exist, everything was crafted.

Badboy, you havent played long enough to have an opionon lol, Specificly about letting people leave, because we arnt testing anything at the moment, anyone who believes they have tested anything lately is a noob, an the wrong type of person to have peroid =)

The server is a service, while the OR is being written, lol, So why are they the wrong people for a test center server?
