Hi there,

Some pals are telling me that the founders will get an early access to the game on August 7th, meaning that they will get the founders mechs, the premium bonuses and all the progress won't be reset at game launch.
Is this correct? Will a founder actually start the game in August 7th being able to keep all they get until game launch?

Yes. No wipe is planned after the 7th of August.

Take it from the good side, the game will probably start before the August ends.

[PeRRaKo]

Holy wacamole! That is a huge advantage.
Thanks for the quick reply.

i have read that we get all our perks the 7th in the closed beta, but unless that is open beta (which it shouldnt be) we will have a final reset of everything when the open beta does in fact begin.

[PeRRaKo]

Ok, now I'm confused

[MagicWalker]

Can i buy founders packages even after early acces start?

Devs said there will be no more wipes after the 7th of August. Maybe they meant no more beta wipes until release, idk,

And MagicWalker, we don't have any info on that, but it might not be available.

On 7th aug all founders are let in and gets to have their toys.

At some later date the game goes open beta and everything is reset.

[PeRRaKo]

Actually that makes more sense.

II. Operation: Inception/Founders Packs

[color=#959595]Q: What is this Operation:Inception?[/color]
[color=#959595]A: It is a promotion by Piranha Games. You can buy one of three different Founders Packs after the 19th June that will grant you, along with different other things, early access to the game in closed beta after buying the pack. (For information about the three packs, visit [/color]this page[color=#959595]). Your Founders' stuff will be implemented on 7th August. After this date, there may still be resets of the game. These resets will only end when Open Beta starts and you will get your Founder's Package anew then (For specific information read [/color]this[color=#959595] and [/color]here[color=#959595] is Bryan Erkmans verification of this answer). Also, technically the Founder's Period is still closed beta, so it is possible that everyone who buys a Founders Pack will have to sign an NDA.[/color]

[color=#959595]Q: Sign an NDA? Does that mean I can't buy one if I am not 18 years or older?[/color]
[color=#959595]A: Yes, there is a possibility this could happen. But hold on tight for more information on this aspect, since it is possible that the NDA will be dropped after the 7th August.[/color]

[PeRRaKo]

Ok, confirmed, thank you very much.

[Wirecutter]

they originally said no wipes after Aug 7. they have since reconsidered their position.
Founders perks will be available from Aug 7 onwards, but wipes may still happen.
do note that Aug 7 is STILL CLOSED BETA.
open beta will start some time after that.

As for how long founders will remain available, they are projected to be available till Aug 7.
if you would like to get a founders pack, i'd suggest getting one before then.

Perhaps take the $30 one first, and upgrade as and when you are able to.
at least you will get in early.

I would like to know where you get your information from.
Where is the announcement that says there are no more wipes after 7th august?
Last I heard they said there will be wipes after 7th august.
