I had my third wipe on the same character 23 days ago right after that day's patch hit:
u/thearcan wanted me to contact support who were less than helpful:
Asking for information I had already provided or asking me to delete the game, install a random demo, and install Outriders again. Of course this didn't fix sh*t.
Support also impossibly wanted me to restore my backup savegames for a game that does not have local saves.
Only after multiple e-mails support informed me that they are 'investigating now.'
Since then silence. For weeks. I had tagged u/thearcan multiple times to no avail while more people kept reporting this wipe.
Till today. u/thearcan finally replied to one of my posts and asked for my ticket number:
I finally received a support reply that you can see in the imgur link.
They wanted me to name my wiped mods (I had informed them multiple times that I had all but one or two mods for category I and II and three or four for category III). This was ridiculous because without screenshot how would I know all the names and - more importantly - when mods are locked, hovering over them doesn't even display the names.
I still went into the game to see what info I might be able to provide. And lo and behold...
- All my mods were still locked, all shards still at 0
BUT
- All my resources had been set to 999.999
- I had been showered in god rolled legendary items that I had never acquired before
Now you might say: Great, you can finally enjoy the game!
Yeah... I could... If we didn't already have reports of that wipe still happening:
This report is 8 hours old. Exactly the same wiping bug.
My character had been wiped during release weekend. Then again the week after with the wipe that also led to character corruption. It took PFC about a month to restore characters back then. This 3rd wipe took them more than 3 weeks for this partial kind of restoration.
Out of 4 months since release my character was basically in bug limbo for 2 months.
And why would I play now with the next wipe just right around the corner?
This game, PFC, and SE support have been one big sh*t show.
TL;DR
After my third wipe SE support didn't restore my unlocked mods but instead set all resources to 999.999 and showered me in legendaries. But people.as of today are still reporting this wiping bug.
