Official Server Wipe on 27MAY2024
Want to know if this "wipe" is going to delete all character data. Will it delete all the crates and shelters I have built? I'd like to know before I start building more ♥♥♥♥ and instead save the nails, axes, and saws.

Thanks.

This is yet another reason why playing 'official' servers is bad. We competent admins can easily apply patch upgrades to our community servers with zero bugs or errors, and maintain data/savegame/progress integrity 100%.

Yap but wipes are rly rly rare so if u start play at 27. u have so many times to build up a better base stb. I wait this wipe about 4 month to start playing again.

Just load your stashed valuables in a second backpack, and log out holding it in your hands.

Two bags are more than enough for smuggling your personal effects to the new patch, no?

Community servers get wiped every few months while officials get wiped twice a year
Map wipe, so yes bases, crates, etc. Not a character wipe.
Though I would assume any smart community admin is gonna wipe characters too.

Yeah. It could be worse. It could be something like Rust which I’m pretty sure wipes once a month.

I’ve got friends who completely lose interest if they play for a night or 2 and the server happens to wipe. Like complete game over for them. Lol. Like the whole point of the game is the adventure. Same type of people won’t ever want to start any kind of grindy game over again and would rather continue a character they had from a year ago. What kind of fun is that?! To each their own though.
Will this wipe affect the experimental branch too btw? :spazdunno:
Also can we expect any sort of support for DLSS or FSR some day? Or is there any mods that could enable them? :otaznicek:

The experimental servers never wipe
They don't? Oh neat, never realised that..also I'm playing on a custom server there, so even less reasons to wipe it.. Cheers !
Oh and also any thoughts on my second question?

exactly, fresh runs are part of game i do enjoy myself. then there is also just what kind of wipes will be done. if it just a map update then most servers will map wipe, but leave players and banks if used. other times if it wiped because mechanics and the like i can see character wipes. a lot of servers i have played do full wipes anyway, just to "reset" everything, so players might not get bored once they get about everything they need or want.

Is there a place or a log of characters that show how long your characters have been alive. If not there should be. It would be nice to have a log to look back at showing your longest character life before death
