Will the beta playing be saved.

[Fadigre]

Typically when games are in beta the reason behind not saving any data is down to the fact that if a player unearths a gamebreaking bug and exploits it then the entire plaerbase could become corrupted!
I figure it's easier to just say "No, no saving. Bad Mr. Kitty. Bad."



Beats being told we're getting our characters and then having a rollback

if you are asking Beta, maybe the open beta is, not the closed beta... if you are asking Alpha, no it will be wiiped.

I hope not. Sounds like the beta will be quite long...I don't want the game to launch and have even LESS stuff to do for my character.

People need to focus more on finding bugs and making FFXIV better, rather then worrying about character data being saved.

i concur with this... really peeps.. i rather they wipe my progress in beta, so i can really do it for real when it launched.

I would think the best way to find bugs is to incentivise players to play as normal as much as possible and allowing progress to be saved would certainly increase the number of hours I played during beta...if I get in...

your supposed to try and break things in beta not play the dang game. if your in beta and playing the game like its live dont cry when something is broken at launch.

Remember when you start a character in Beta (or Alpha) it is a level 1 beginner. You cannot start up one of your old level 50 characters. When you start ARR for real, you can bring in your old characters. If you carry over a Beta character it will be a new one.

They said that at one point we will be able to use our old characters in the beta.
