Grognard .: theres not going to be a wipe?
Grognard .: after the open beta?
GM Princezzbaybeecakez: there's not going to be a wipe until after the open beta
Grognard .: yes, but we going to keep one char from open beta?
Grognard .: if I level him to 38, on launch, head start, i will be able to play this level 38 char?
Grognard .: or after the open beta ends, they will wipe everything
GM Princezzbaybeecakez: yes everything will be wiped ,but if you pre ordered you'll have early start date before the launch
Grognard .: ahn ! nice, thanks for the info
GM Princezzbaybeecakez: no problem

so, The gm said that will have a WIPE, thats why he pre orders have a head start..but now i REad that we will keep one char after the beta right?

Uh, it sounds like that GM was perhaps mistaken. It has been confirmed many many times that no characters are being wiped in Open Beta. The only wipe set to occur was the one after Closed Beta, which has already passed.

So unless something has changed within the past couple of hours that EME has yet to announce, I'm thinking the GM was mistaken, misinformed, or misunderstood.

Just asked Yoda, and he said the only wipe happened after CBT5. Open beta and on is early access.

I believe the character we will be able to keep is the same character that we make during the name reservation period. so yes

ok, it was a GM mystake..so we can make our name reservation and level to 32 on OP, and head start to 38. and when launch we going to be level 38. I liked !

Brian Knox has stated time and again there won't be a wipe after open beta. If the senior producer says it won't happen, it's not happening.

Either the GM was confusing Closed Beta with Open Beta, he asked on EU for some unknown reason, the GM was uniformed...or this is just fake.



EU is wiping after Open Beta but NA is not, and it's already been known for a long time they plan on not wiping after Open Beta.... Been countless threads about this, yet the information has been in the Stickied thread for the past few months.

Sounds like you were talking to an EU admin..

Oh, good call on the EU GM. OP - did you do the live chat on EME's site? Or on Frogster's?

that chat scared me a little...I was not going to play OBT if that were true~ lol -_-
