    They where never promised after wipe.  That is why we are getting them next/I mean this week when the do the econ wipe since ships aren't being effective by this wipe.  Though I really really do hope they are doing a port wipe too for the econ testing so we can test these new ports and not have them all owned by the same clans owning most of the server with population so low, give every one  chance at a clean slate to test the econ.

    They were promised......didnt you read the Important news on the load screen of the testbed?

    Although I am disappointed that XP will be wiped, I can agree with the reasoning behind it. But what I am more disappointed about is the wipe of ship slots as they took a lot of time to grind up. With levelling XP it is not too bad as it gives you a chance to work up again through the ships and maybe revisit some you have not sailed in a while, but grinding slots is just painful especially now with the new AI spawn mechanics.

    I think what we are going to find is how difficult it actually is now to grind up the ship slots and how difficult it will be for new players to unlock these slots. I did a lot of grinding on OW AI fleets during my hunt for the rare books and in doing this I worked through all the 1st to 3rd rate ships unlocking slots as well as some lower rates, but since getting all the books I needed I have been unable to face serious grinding of OW AI fleets and have tried to move more into PvP. When the Christian came out I was going to try and unlock slots on it but I just could not face the grind and any time I thought about where to go to find the OW AI fleets to grind on I just gave up and went to do something else. I am afraid that I will feel the same way for most ships after the wipe.

    I do also think as a couple of others have pointed out that the game is not ready for release as there is not enough content to keep people occupied (Grinding again does not keep people occupied, just bored). From what I saw of the economy patch on the test server, I do not think it is in depth enough to keep the eco fans interested. Battles have always been the games greatest strength, but there are still too many issues with RoE. PvE that used to be readily available in many areas of the map is no longer available and instead we have friendly AI fleets sailing around just adding load on the servers and not much else (who has not been caught by a hunter with a large friendly fleet close by but just outside of the tag circle because the tag circle is so small now). Personally I think that unless there are some major additions to the game before release that we will be down to 500 players or less in a couple of months after launch.

    Will I still play? Yes, because I love the genre and this is still the best looking Age of Sail game out there, but I guess we will see how many people will be lost because of these changes.

    I am still going to play Naval Action...not detered by any wipes.

    Hello Captains. 

    Testbed will open next week and everyone will be invited to help us have a preliminary test of the forthcoming patch.
    The main goal will be to test Battle UI update, but captains will also be able to check out new trading and delivery missions (and localization). 
    Captains who will fulfill the testbed requirements will receive rewards (Santa Cecilia and Paint chests).

    More information will follow.
