wipe server periodically
Sarakin:
Good idea, f.e. having the period of 4 months with unlocking some things every month (being able to craft CA) can be more fun at this stage of development.
And each era having unique goal, like:
- PvP goal - first to reach 5k PC kills
- trade goal - first to gain 10 M caps
- PvE goal - first to slaugther 10k DC
etc. can even improve this

That's a stupid idea imho, we should work to balance a persistent world, not thinking about wiping every month. It could be funny at beginning, but you will soon have only 30 players left.
Don't forget that this game has a random playerbase and most of them can't spend hours farming and such, I left playing after my first wipe for example and started back only after a while since i didn't want to level up again, get stuff etc.
It could be funny for factions, but a real pain for solo players or even small groups. I lost 2 mates coz they don't want to level up again, and this upcoming wipe is even worse since they won't play knowing that everything they got will be lost.
Sarakin:
If you have some experience, you know, that gaining stuff and lvling to 21 can be made within several days. And if were talking about 4 months, its more than 120 days - good enough to do or gain anything worthy.
I dont want to start any flaming, but on various occasions, only loners complain, that they wont be able to play like they did if some suggestion will be implemented. My question is, why do we have loners in MMO ? Its multiplayer, played by multiple players and the game is and should be about interaction between players - gangs, small groups, big groups. It is clear, that loner should have very hard time playing multiplayer game.

I agree here. If the game needs a wipe it only means that the features aren't long lasting enough.

soon we will have this amount without wipe. Also keep in mind that this is just suggestion, the time of session till wipe and all other details are object of discussion.
