We’re still waiting for that recipe you know although it’s probably also the ingredients, mmm fresh butter!She chased me out with a broom after I burned my fingers stealing shortbread from the baking tray...felt like I was 10 years old all over again

So is persistince in at last? No more wipes?
This is their description:I see... so this "achievement" of CIG is them basically saying they are still going to wipe, just less often?
We have added an early version of long term persistence to allow player purchases and UEC balance to persist between database wipes. For now, we will persist FPS item purchases, ship component purchases, ship purchases, and UEC earnings.

They are saving part of the application's state to (what I assume is) a relational database. It's groundbreaking innovation.Why is this talking them so long? Other games do this as though it is nothing, just a basic feature and yet CIG make this multi-year song and dance about it as though it's the hardest thing they have worked on yet.
Depends what you mean by 'so long' Last week: no persistence. This week: Some persistence. A week isn't sooo long.Why is this talking them so long?

I take it there will still be a full wipe before eventual release?This is their description:
Nothing did persist, you had to re-create your character, and UEC etc. were completely reset.Umm.. so those things didn't persist between wipes before? Because i thought they did.
That goes without saying ...I take it there will still be a full wipe before eventual release?
Depends, on some games they do wipe completely just before the release, and then some of them do give a 1 or 2 day head start to backers / beta testers.once they get to the gamma stage (ED eqivalent) that means any stuff earned and rep gained will carry into release. that will be my green light to properly start playing. until then i dont want to burn out.

Nope...everything earned in the PU went with a wipe previously...bits of armour, ship upgrades...aUEC earned.Umm.. so those things didn't persist between wipes before? Because i thought they did.
