It\u2019s looking more and more like Facepunch will be pushing out a forced wipe for this week\u2019s update. \u00a0While we\u2019re a little disappointed with how this plays out, it means a few things for the server. Right now, we intend to keep the same map, but some of the rumors are suggesting that the wipe will change how the server generates the map based on map seeds\u2013so the map we\u2019re currently using may become inaccurate. As soon as an update on that is available, I\u2019ll follow up. It also means that our work to date will reset. \u00a0I know it\u2019s a pain, but that also means that we\u2019ll all be back on the same footing, with another chance to jump back in, only now with a better grasp of what\u2019s contained in the XP system. It\u2019s also a great chance for folks to get together and see about planning some housing partners, if you\u2019re feeling a little exposed, out there alone!<\/p>\n
There has been some rumbling surrounding the weekend event(s), particularly Airdrop Rush. As with last week, we\u2019ll be evaluating how progression has moved forward. If people are already crafting the same tier of loot as what\u2019s found in the airdrops, we\u2019ll move ahead with this event. If not, there are others on tap. In response to some of the feedback we\u2019ve received, I would like to note that I closely watch who is at what levels and what items are already available in-game before I unleash loot in an event. I\u2019d also like to point out that there is a forum with a section for event feedback<\/a> and a Steam group<\/a> with a place for posting feedback as well. That\u2019s also the right place to suggest some new events or changes to existing ones.<\/p>\n This by is by no means a suggestion NOT to discuss these things in chat. \u00a0I very much invite that! I just also want you to know that I don\u2019t read all the logs; if there\u2019s something that the server\u2019s population wants done differently, this is how to make it happen.<\/p>\n That\u2019s all from me for today! \u00a0Love you all\u2013be excellent to one another!<\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It\u2019s looking more and more like Facepunch will be pushing out a forced wipe for this week\u2019s update. \u00a0While we\u2019re a little disappointed with how this plays out, it means a few things for the server.
