Title: Lost weapons in server crash.
Post by: named on January 31, 2006, 10:50:03 am

This morning the server did crash (again) and I lost my weapons.
Happen to a lot of people, ok did call for help.

The answer I did recive was \" that some peoples waepons was taken because some weapons was spawn\"?   I dont belive this....  

Had 2* regular Claymores /64 that I did get from gladiator/auction

Should be very nice if someone could explain this to me.

I pretty shure that Im not gone get them back, but then I could at least explain for other people in the game.

Several bad items where removed from the game. That includes weapons that were too powerful due to a bug in the generation of loot.

Thanks for your replye Jorrit.

But I still dont get it, there was only 40 to 60 players online.
What about rest the rest of the weapons? Must be many many more left.

And does this mean that for a exampel the claymore /64 is out of the game?

The people online doesn\'t matter. The items have been removed from ALL players (online or not).

I don\'t know specifically which weapons have been removed.

ALso the players that were offline will get those weapons deleted.

When we do an item/char/whatever \"wipe\" (or in this case, partial wipe) we (or better Talad) operate on the database.

If the claymore you are talking about was generated due to a bug, then it has been removed too.

I don\'t know which weapons were planed to be deleted. But it looks like only claymores been deleted.
Also I don\'t know by which filter weapons were deleted, but if you really want to delete overpowered weapons, then look at the slash/speed ratio and delete the rest.
All other fire/frosty/dark weapons like longswords, short swords, broad swords and daggers wasn\'t deleted and i think they should.

I hope my dreams will come true, finally ;)

Not all \"strange\" weapons might have been wiped.

Now, I don\'t know exactly the parameters using for this partial wipe, but I know just a specific set of items were gonna to be deleted.
Probably some weapons belonged to this category, others that look still strange didn\'t but belong to another bugged category.

They are. The removal if permanent. They were removed because they were wrongly generated (i.e. bug).

That is why they were removed ;) THey were not supposed to be that powerful.

Reversing the \"wipe\" will not happen.

Post by: Domonico on February 01, 2006, 08:30:52 pm

so if they were a \"bug\" and needed to be removed what do we do about the lost trias?

\"Tester first, player second.\" It\'s unfortunate that many players lost what they tried hard to get, but when playing PlaneShift, you agree to such things - wipes, losses, bugs that cause both of the former, etc. The weapons shouldn\'t have existed in the first place, so there is no real reason to \"make up for it.\"

Title: Lost Claymores
Post by: Choren on February 02, 2006, 01:54:26 am

We don\'t need to be informed, though I do thank you for your effort ;) The thread already established all the information necessary about the situation.

I lost my broadsword :\'-(

Ok, I understand the wipe but I think it would be nice if the devs (or Talad) would inform us before they do such a change. We could sell the items then to get some money for the swords we will loose. I think it would be fair.

That was EXACTLY why it was NOT announced in advance. We didn\'t want people to sell their items as that would be unfair. Some of these weapons were worth too much so there would be way too much money in the economy.

The economy was long since destroyed and revived, dependent on these weapons and the sale of them.  Preventing the sale of these weapons may have helped a bit, but if we want to be serious about maintaining the economy, we\'ll need to do a character wipe to fix it.

Just confirming the loss of my high slash daggers - thus the weapon wipe above a certain slash was full.
...and rightly so, can\'t have some strong weapons about while some others are removed.

Thanks for the updates
