Do we keep skill points accumulated during the DUST beta for the real release?

In other words, is there a skill point 'carry-over'?

If so, is it official or hear-say?

Having a skill point carry-over would be fantastic! Smile

Anyone else checking their E-mail(s) every hour on the hour to see if their MPT code from December or whenever has shown up yet?

I'd be shocked if you did keep your Beta SPs.

At Eve Fanfest 2012, some of the devs said there probably would be a skill point carry-over, or something similar.

It would be great to have this confirmed either way.

the psn forum we use for dust is best place to ask this id think but i dout that the skill points we have from the beta will carry over as it would be unfair if anything we would get some items to show we was beta testers like i have got in other games iv tested.

so i very much dout we will get to keep them.

"EVE is harsh and unforgiving." And you expect beta skill points to carry over? Shesh...

FYI: No skill points transfer at the end of EVE-O beta, instead everybody got killed in a spectacular manner.

Just got my voucher via email (yes I was checking hourly for two days now lol) and have the client downloading.........I am kinda curious about the OP's question myself. It seems it would be a terrible waste of time to start training out a solid merc, only to lose the SP when the game officially launches. Perhaps we will get SP reimbursement and asset reimbursement once the game transfers from beta to live.

Got my voucher. But that is a great question. But since it's closed beta I can almost guarantee that you won't be keeping those SP.

It would be a good way of bribing people to test it though! Smile

I was under the impression that the closed beta will patch into an open beta, with a final patch being the complete first build. I may have misunderstood during all the CCP bustle and shitstorms over the past year, but here's to hoping we gets our SP lol

I've never heard of any beta that let you keep your anythings.
