    I'm not sure about the "starting over completely fresh" part, as I want to keep the faction power that I spent money on in the new survival world.
    (Also will the new survival world give players access 1.9+ items?

    Just a quick question about spawners, power etc. I assume these won't be transferred over (at least judging by the store page for survival)?

    Anyway, looking forward to the new world, it will hopefully be awesome.

    ill be happy if I can transfer my spawners saying they will then be worthless in survival 1 so why bother really keeping them
    I'm not happy about the /old because maybe some other ppl still want to play on the old one
    and not making a fac on survival 2 also sounds a little weird but am happy of disabling auto kick from the fac

    Nothing will be transferred over except for kits, as those were intended to be used over and over again.

    What about power bought? Certainly we will be able to keep that..?
    Edit: I read above. Kind of upset about that and i'm generally an understanding person..

    So you wouldn't consider carrying over power boosts even if they were suppressed by a few weeks to allow people to get a foothold in?

    I bought over 500 power... and what is the point of having it if new players can't build it on an old server?

    The point as stated in the thread is to make old survival less appealing so that it will encourage the growth of the new survival.

    You're not losing anything...

    The main concern we received with the announcement of a survival reset was that 3 years of work would be gone. Hence why we decide to go through the trouble of keeping the "old survival" up for the ones who decide to keep playing there.

    How are you losing anything when we're not even touching your stuff?
    And nothing is going to happen to your power.
    What is the point of having 2 survivals? Because the survival veterans complain that their stuff will be gone after a reset? When we release the new survival the veterans can continue to play in their world, while new players go to the new world.

    It's like saying what's the point of CoD MW2 if Activision is going to release MW3?

    When Activision releases MW3 they obviously want their players to go play that and not MW2, but they're not going to ban people from playing MW2. The people who already bought MW2 can still play it, while the new people get to play MW3.

    That's exactly what we're doing. We're releasing New Survival while Old Survival is still playable for the players who want to keep playing that, but we want new players (who just joined for the first time) to play the New Survival.

    So, if we have chests full of good stuff in the first version of survival, will we be able to transfer this stuff into the new survival?

    No, the old and new survival will be separate servers. Transferring items would defeat the purpose of the "reset": A fresh start.

    You can choose which server you want to play on. We're not taking away the old world from people who invested a lot of time into it already.

    Guys, there isn't too many sticks to grab at. It's a reset, not moving to a new place.

    Just because you moved doesn't mean you're starting a new life.

    I like what Twage said.
    While it isn't technically a reset, at least Activision gave new players the option to play MW2 when MW3 is released, not to mention still sell both games, even today despite both games being very old.

    And they're offering us to still play the old survival too.

    omg yes, finally :)
    I really think having a new survival has potential for bringing more life to the server.
    I hope to be part of the survival community again.
