alpha chars will not be deleted , they get rewarded with vip level 7 and maybe in beta with a extra small reward
The account stay as it is , it will not be whiped
There are some restrictions in alpha to prevent abusing of this rule
characters are only level 50 max
compose rates wont go higher then 10* as you need to be level 70 to compose to 11*
as the max level is 50 , so the star can not go higher
alpha stays as long it is needed , we hope we can go to beta next month but it depends on the players we have and the testing that is done
We are testing out differend things like the pk tournement and the events , also the ep drop and how long it takes to make 10* and how long it takes to get a powerfull set 2sock +12 and supergems
That is basicly the main reason why alpha will alteast exist for 1 month and can be extended
Beta got other priority's to test out , but then we got already a base where we can build on and can we keep the things like they are now ( like ep drop rate , ep farm rate and so on )
also we are now fixing the main core bugs , so beta can be a normal gameplay with out big bugs (like events that are not working)
Beta will be mainly to see compose rates , to see exp rates , to see market in progress and legions and smaller bugs and a lot more npc's then there are in alpha
Beta will probaly stay for 1 or 2 months and after we gathered the needed information then we can go live
Nothing will be whiped , only the vip level will be changed to a lower value for beta and probaly no vip level or vip level 1 for our final release (only counts for new accounts , alpha/beta players keep there vip level and get a alpha/beta reward on next stage ,not sure for end of alpha but definaly on end of beta for helping us testing out the needed parts )
hopely this explained it good enouf about the project we are doing and why we got a alpha/beta stage ( and those low level cap )
@blacknovice
We still got our forum xp system
i added the shop again and you can convert XP into credits
Those credits can be used at your own choise , it get added to your account and you can keep it or try to get more exp to gain even more credits
As exp is based on the forum progress can we not manual reward exp , so our custom rewards for events and other forum related stuff will be directly added to your account
The rates are not fixed yet , it still need some tweaking but 2 things got a fixed value for now
Credit amount you can buy for a price
Ep reward for credits
other things can still be changed in alpha/beta , but those ep value's are fixed as it is based on the droprate and the time it takes to gather the same amount of ep
The credit value is based on the sms payment and paypal payment
as sms payment takes a fee of 50% or more , is it basicly cheaper to use paypal instead
that is why the price got a fixed price based on paypal and that sms will be a bit more expensive then paypal
