What I'm curious too, and may have already been brought up.. does data get wiped clean from phase 3 into OB->Launch, or will it carry over for those who do want to use their actual former character datas.

Not a big deal if it does get wiped out, I mean, you'll already know how to do stuff for launch and things will probably be tweaked here and there between the time frames, just wondering if its possible for any acheivements and maps that you unlock during phase 3 will matter upon launch itself.
