Will there be a wipe between 2.0 beta and 2.0 live?

[Zantetsuken]

Here is how I read it from the official timeline:


1.23 ends around Aug 1st and then we see the radical changes to in-game world.

Early October, we get new 2.0 client - and servers shut down for a month.

Early November, PS3 Closed Beta test starts (using promotional passes I'm guessing) and PC Free Trial begins.

Normal billing begins around February 1, 2013

So, I'd say that since the November launch of 2.0 (PC) is a FREE TRIAL and not a Beta Test, we won't have to make new chars (that will get wiped).

However, the PS3 will have an actual Beta Test... so a wipe is quite likely for chars created during that period.
