The H1Z1 team has posted on Reddit that a server wipe will be performed on Thursday, February 5th as part of the normal game update cycle. All characters, player-created structures, placed vehicles and more will be wiped.
Players can rest assured, however, that account locked items will remain in place such as cosmetic skins, crates, crate keys. Players need to be aware, however, that anything on a character or placed, for instance, in a vehicle, will not be spared by the wipe.
For people who purchased the Premium or upgraded to the Premium Edition will be topped off up to 3 Airdrop Tickets. If you already have 3 or more Airdrop Tickets you won’t be receiving any additional ones. This won’t happen at the exact time of the wipe but will be granted to your account within a few business days afterward.
According to the post, players signed on for full server wipes as part of the development cycle and to allow new builds with significant changes and improvements to be implemented.

If anyone is curious about this game... it is on the right track.
I am curious to see what happens next. I have nearly 90 hours in it, and all PvE, so no screaming about the cheaters here, the mechanics of the game and the crafting make things very very interesting.
New twist, early access game, paid early access game. Sells micro transactions which now will be wiped:D
Editing to avoid hate train; What I mean is all the items players have obtained through the means of micro transactions. Such as all the guns and ammo you have gotten in the paid air drops.
Players seem to be okay with this so I doubt it will change. I'm not touching the game but that is just me.
Looking forward to: Crowfall / Lost Ark / Black Desert Mobile
pve has risks.
bears.
Cept they're refunding airdrop tickets..
And... The amount of loot you get from airdrops is basically nothing... Especially considering the way the loot was bugged at the start and then hyper spawns happened where you could find guns and thousands of rounds all over the place (plus those gained from duping).
And... It's a full loot game so anything from air drops has probably been lost to a death already...
And... You can earn airdrop tickets in the game so there's lots of people who've found or won them (I have 7, started with 0).
And... None of the skins/account items are reset.. So it's literally only the loot from airdrops (see above)...
If you honestly think this is a big deal then you either don't play the game or the only hate train is the one that ran you over. >.<
I watch a lot of stream games for the entertainment and watched quite a bit of this today.
EVERY single streamer i watched had a gun ,so much for survival.
The number 1 streamer was being harassed ,he moved from server to server and the hacker kept finding him.The cheat had a TON of hacks from sliding around on the ground to boppn and weavin to warping.It pissed the number 1 streamer right off,he wanted to logout.
btw EVERY stream i watched was players trying to pvp,not the streamers but they kept running into people who just wanted to kill them.
What bothers me is it seems unrealistic the need for over drinking,idk maybe players are the size of Elephants they need two hundred gallons of Berry juice.
Also everything is a menu system,you don't actually search most of the places like cards for example,you just point at the car and a circle timer and menu.
I still do not get the attraction to the game,seems boring to me players just run around looking for real cheap loot ,i guess hoping to find a gun.Other than that nothing else seems to be happening. find the actual streamers to be entertaining way more than the game,some CDN dude is a pretty funny streamer.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.
I play a lot and have never seen a hacker.
The point is not whether guns are rare or not, there are 300 million guns in America, it wouldn't be impossible to find firearms in a small town during an apocalypse. It's either firefights, or bow fights/brawls, which do you prefer? I actually prefer guns. Make auto weapons/snipers rare but pistols more common.
Yes everyone PvP's because the PvE is shite at the moment. I personally don't like zombies getting too involved in my PvP, zombies could be a bit more threatening though.
There is loot in the world and in containers... this is a big problem?
This is a game that you need to play, because you are constantly "on edge" as part of the game. You don't get this watching someone else.
Looking forward to: Crowfall / Lost Ark / Black Desert Mobile
I honestly don't see the appeal of a game where the only thing you do is wait for some loot to spawn. Sit around near a town and keep checking the fixed spawn points for new loot every x minutes. This has to be the most boring game concept ever.
Now if they made Zombies a real threat and loot spawn at random places with Zombies spawning near it too, i might get interested.
Currently the game is very shallow. Unless they draw some magic rabbit out of some hat and develop this game into the direction of a world (not that small zone) plagued by a real zombie apocalypse, I can't see me spending money on this. Maybe when it gets F2P for a few evenings.
But what do they always say, it's EA, sooo much will still change *cough*. But the impression I got so far that they are more trending towards a shooter. BattleRoyale doesn't help either.
And community is quite unfriendly, not to use the word toxic. Usually in streams you see the following:
Player A: "Are you friendly ?"
Player B: "Yeah, friendly"
Player A: "Ah, ok, great"
Player B shoots Player A into the head, or other way around, followed by some hysteric laughing.
Sounds like fun, not.
The player A/B thing actually happened to me no joke the same way you typed it. It was my first death.
The only thing i learned in this game is to never trust anyone with a heavy accent.
tbh it needed it.they needed to remove all the duped ammo around.on youtube someone showed how to do it and it was so easy with no add on program.
this is good for the game .i think in alpha regular wipes will help a lot.
The funny part about that is that all the ppl playing DayZ are the cheaters.
Everytime I log into that game I get killed almost instantly by groups of cheaters who magically teleport to my new spawn points as I rez. That game is in really bad shape.
All the current action around H1Z1 is simply due to the "new game smell".
In a month or so it will be forgotten.
God forbid people discuss a new game on a gaming site...
Ummmm Server wipe is today....
And besides, who cares about duped weapons. Either you have a gun or a bow... it's all the same.
Oh and something else that is huge... One character per server... I mean, multiple accounts anyone LOL!
I always knew you need a really special mentality for these kind of games.
Glad to see there are people enjoying to get slaughtered by cheaters. Who needs fairness and even terms anyway?
Says in the 2/5 patch notes
Simsu, no one could have stated it any better. andre369 is the epitome of a troll/hater spewing out false information. More than likely andre369 simply has no idea what he's talking about or he's on the hate train you so wonderfully spoke of. I've been burned before but never this bad.
