I can't help but smirk at the fact that it ended up being on the very last day of February.

Seems we're missing 2.

"Join us throughout the entire weekend as we host several interesting in-game events and win unique items!"
Does this imply no wipe will be occurring?!

I'm assuming the same thing as the Christmas and Halloween items will occur. Where they will be given as a package upon release in your mail slot at the top right.

Wish they would give us more details about the "unique items". Hope the level requirements to get the unique items are not high since i haven't been playing since the first 5 days of OB since there hasn't been much to explore and also the fact that I am assuming a wipe will occur. But overall hope these items will actually be unique and will never be issued again. Also hope it isn't the "Candy Pack" since that seems consumable, and I want something that isn't. But if it is consumable and isn't reissued every again and isn't bound to your character then they might end up like the limited edition consumables that are on Runescape. Mwahahaha. But if they are limited edition and are not binding then expect whatever gifts you get to be a high price in a year or so. These gifts will be like the limited editions in Runescape. jking.

Start time for the start of the events will also be appreciated.

@Deathbreak - It seems that may be a possibility, unless it will be items that are linked to your account or something.

My question is that it says 'Our beta journey is almost over'... does that mean that the beta will NOT carry into release? or that it will be closing down within the next few weeks/days? Details would be VERY nice, xP

So...wipe? No wipe? That's the real important question here!

I'm pretty sure there will be a wipe because of the ongoing dupe glitch. A good solution would be wiping at the Ecaflip patch (assuming they are released before launch) and giving us some time to grind up our characters before launch.

It maybe not be the best solution, but at least it's throwing us a bone in our way. Hopefully they'll release Rogues and Masqueraiders along with the Ecaflip so we can test them out to ensure that they aren't horribly underpowered or overpowered, but this is just wishful thinking.

This is what Derek said about Ecas, Rogues, and Masqs:

Eca's will be released in the next patch. Rogues and Masqueraiders won't be in the next patch. Also Derek said that details about the next patch should come very very soon in another thread. So next patch will be sometime next week most likely.

This had to be a year with the 29th day, didn't it.

(We all called it though- last day of February!)

"Optional monthly subscription fee of $6.00 will give players access to premium content, and a microtransaction-based store will allow users to purchase cosmetic items."

It's like Team Fortress 2 all over again!

I figured it would be like Dofus, with Rogues and Masqueraiders being like the first 1.1 update. Something that'll tie in with the anime.

There is going to be a wipe at release no matter what, they've already said this. They are running an actual beta TEST, not a "play 2 months before any subscribers" event.

This means the game won't be able to celebrate its release anniversary for at least 4 years.

Sad face.
