What the wipe will wipe - The Road to 2.0 #4

A lot of people have been asking what the wipe will actually be wiping, so I thought I would take the time to fully explain what it will reset.

I think it's best to start with what will not be wiped. Job rosters, accumulated ranks and other whitelisted roles such as gangs will not be reset. These are going to be the only things not affected.

We did this so as not to upset the balance of departments and other roleplay as we move into 2.0. So this means everything else including cars, characters, housing, businesses, gas stations and gang armouries will be reset.

While we understand some players might feel frustrated about having to start over, we hope that everyone will enjoy our end of 1.0 events and will also realize how much more opportunities we will have in 2.0 with a more realistic economy.

New players and old, will have the chance to climb their way back to the top, reshaping the cities civilian and crime landscape for the coming year. In this way, we think a wipe is an awesome chance for new and old players.

Old players get to try out new ways of roleplaying, be it in new roles or doing old roles in creative ways. This also levels the playing field for our new players and gives them the chance to become kingpins, influential business people or renowned politicians in the state government.

2.0 is all about new experiences, serious roleplay and brand new opportunities for our player base to enjoy DCRP more deeply than we have ever previously offered. As we celebrate our one-year anniversary in June, we hope to see all of your great faces right alongside us.

Stay tuned to our next blog post where we will discuss some of the big changes that will be available in 2.0. As well as the official title for 2.0, since I think just calling it that is a bit boring.
