Boonie Hat Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 Hello everyone, After looking through the Community Feedback received in the past couple weeks we have decided to run a temporary event on the main server to test the waters. We are going to be picking a weekend to wipe the slate clean for everyone that will allow all new and old players to compete for money & properties on the main server. This means we will switch to a completely new database where all player data will be fresh. Things being wiped only during the event will be all houses, vehicles, money, honor, prestige, and stats. The only thing that will not be wiped will be your Donation Level, Asylum Plus, Faction Ranks (APD / AFD), Gang Name, and Gang Members. (Gang Bank, Gang Garage, Gang House will be wiped). The mailbox system and exchange system will be completely isolated from the Domination and Main Server. You will not be able to claim funds received outside the event server. After the event is over we will switch back to the main database and everyone will have all their old money, houses, etc. We will be keeping the event database incase the feedback is good and we can run another event. A suggested idea we received is to give players rewards or titles based off their progression & stats gained during the event period. Remember, no one is losing anything, all data will be separate from their current player data. This also does not mean we will be wiping the main server in the future either. An exact date hasn't been determined yet (We hope very very soon), but we will keep you posted.Please leave your feedback below.

rngr Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 Doing a temporary wipe loses a lot of the value that a permanent wipe has IMO. Hopefully its better than nothing, but I think this is a case of doing it halfway is the same as doing nothing at all. Wipe it for real. Destroyer, Toxicc and .Casper like this Link to comment
Vash Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 The only decison that makes sense - test it out and see how the community reacts. 👍 Does this mean that it's going to last just for the weekend that you pick, or the exact duration of the event is yet to be determined?

王 rando 王 Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 I know a lot of people still see this somewhat pointless to play if it's not going to be a full on legitimate wipe. I understand that but play during their little test and give good player responses and hopefully there will be a real wipe. I don't blame them for not fully committing on the ideas of players who get banned every week for being toxic. just play during the test wipe, and give good response skimancole, Boonie Hat, Protocol and 2 others like this Link to comment

I personally believe a wipe would instantly kill the server IF there is no other new content that will be released WITH the wipe BigTiddyGothGirl likes this Link to comment

WingWong Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 (edited) just my opinion but who wants to go and grind on a fresh start when you going to loose everything you earn in a couple days because its just a temporary test. everyone is just going to sit in spawn towns and rat while the event is up. might as well make it asylum koth in athira would probably play out the same.

Walt Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 (edited) Might as well go through with the permanent wipe. How does it make sense to wipe for 3 days and revert. No point to even progress in that time. Personally you just have to make the decision and stick with it. Edited September 1, 2022 by Walt Colin., Toxicc, BLOTTER and 1 other like this Link to comment
544heu Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 Should just go head and wipe it including houses, full wipe. If you don't wipe houses than its pointless cause people will farm out of there houses. Toxicc and william like this Link to comment

Sheriff Rick Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 If this is a success and wiping the server seems like a good idea then I'd also include house upkeep so houses aren't hoarded in the same way that they will be days into a wipe Link to comment

thero Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 Either wipe it or don't wipe it, I don't think a trial phase will work well because nobody is going to want to do a fresh start if its not guaranteed to be permanent. Do a poll first and get an idea of who would actually be in favor of a wipe. I think it's a good idea especially with the mass unban wave. BLOTTER, Gagss and GravL like this Link to comment
BLOTTER Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 Definitely need a poll or something to see how many people would actually want a wipe instead of wasting a weekend to see if people join during the event.

That or maybe add content to the server to get old players and maybe some new players to join up because we all know the server has been dying GravL likes this Link to comment

Coryyy_ Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 If your going to do this will Domination money be wiped? If so I think it is quite dumb and doesnt make sense. Like Walt said doing a "event" wipe is pointless and you either wipe fully or dont wipe at all. I think it would be bad 2 wipe as arma is a dying game and will cause a lot of people to leave.

Jimmy Turnup Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 @Boonie HatIt is very important to put kavala on top for the reset to keep player base high. If they enter sofia with no people in it they will just leave after joining. Link to comment
