$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Tammuz', 't')he thing is psych, even if we did, I know that so many weeks we'd be back to having no experience and pretty much being in the exact same place

i thought I'd be able to suck it up and take the reset, right now i don't think i really want to anymore.

i can't even be bothered to reconfigure my prize alt.

I'm ready for the big reset as I'll enjoy the whole new games aspects but I can't face the thought of spending the last few days of V1 trying to claw back the upgrades and weapons I sweated 2-3 months for. Should that be the case I think I'd rather sit it out and come back later when V2 kicks off.

Personally, my XP is roughly a quarter of what it was.

I'm probably more upset than I would be 'cos work's giving me a really hard time as well.

Here's some data for you OS: http://seibertron.com/heavymetalwar/vie ... _id=181991

I think that if you keep checking mission and arena logs you might be able to add all of the xp back and change all of the names back :D

Ouch. Lost about 5 million xp overall and about 1.5 mil on my top bot.

Lots of levelling wiped out. Thanks for getting it back up OS and Seibs. Now to get back to work. I needs me a level 5!

')Oh, and thank you for working so fast to fix the problems.
Thanks to Seibertron too. He spent nearly an hour digging through files for me.


yes!!...thanks for the work to get this back so soon!!

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Omega Sentinel', 'T')if, Deadboy, Venomous...PM me with some numbers please.
I'll hook you all up tommorrow. This whole thing has made me want to puke and I need some sleep. :(


that shouldn't happen....what happens to all those that didn't keep a recent record?? a cross the board % boost would be a better option.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Undertaker777', 'Y')ou're uncomfortable that your top Bots lost what ? 2 ? Maybe 3 million xp. My top guy went down from 34,800,000 to some 18 mil...You've got to be kidding me.


I lost 28mil top guy, 77mil full team.....and I could only imagine how much Sprockitz lost. Burn should be about the same as me team wise...prob a bit more.

http://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwar ... 0&keyword=
and what happened to everyone above me?? they're not showing up in the high scores anymore....I should be #16, NOT #1!!!

they are still showing up in the players rankings though...so they can't have disappeared

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Omega Sentinel', 'W')e restored the character data from April. That was the latest backup available.

After restoring the table I gave everyone a large XP boost and a 200,000 energon bonus for your troubles. (I'm trying to make this up to all of you as best I can).

I also added 50 Kremzeeks to the armory.

If you are new to the game since April just pm me and I will try to hook you up with some goodies ASAP.

In the grand scheme of things this could have been alot worse, but with the massive changes that are happening to the game you can see why the reset has to come.


Okay, now I don't care so much about the energon but what I am kinda irked about is my xp, when I logged off yesterday afternoon I had well over 4,400,000xp and this is what it's telling me I have right now, 3,793,477 xp.

Even before we got that little xp boost last week I'd already broken the 4 million mark, and now it's this?

I don't care if there is a reset coming I want my xp back until then.

I got happy as heck when I saw my top 6 bots got an xp boost...and then I looked below and saw I did not have my bottom 6 bots that I created last month. I guess there is no way to get them back, huh?

Damnit... I've lost a lot of xp, and been dumped right back to a stage in my teams history where i was strugling to get nearly all my builds to work...
F**K.

Ahh well.

OS, if we have records of how much xp our teams had (like sounder's and bun-bun's xp charts) would you be able to restore them? Or would that proove too unfair on the others who havnt got such records?

PS for those who want to know, I will have to change one of the targets, but the hunt goes on.

Weapon: Stinger Missile
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Tifereth', 'p')lease do it, my top bots lost each one 3 millions


Same here. My top Bot lost a level (from 8 to 7) and was at spot #23! My second top Bot lost a level and a half (from 9 to 7, and he was halfway to level 10)! I can't remember about him, but the top guy seems to have lost 12 million (?). Not sure how much sense that makes, but him having 32 million rings a bell.

Or is that just a random number popping into my head?

Also, anyone else have this problem: I can have only 5 Bots active at a time, not 6.

Figures, the moment I start to make some real headway in this game it crashes. Lost about 25 million (2/3rds) of my exp and my main characters all lost around 5.5-4 million exp. Not worth my time to start over now so I'll check back when version II starts. Do wish that the backup was done a little more frequently

So do I. This happened before a couple of years ago. Not that HMW backups are a huge deal now what with version 2 rolling out in less than a month, but when we are on version 2 and there's no reset pending, it would be a big blow to lose 6 weeks of data. I think frequent updates are not only a good thing, but a dire necessity.
