probably
One of the server host guys said yes as if it were a matter of course, but unless the move also includes server changes that break currently persisted data, I don't see why it would necessarily require it. Based on past history, though, my guess there will be a wipe.
yes

So it'd make sense to put us all on a level playing field again.
ok guys thanks :)
Where is the Post?
Not sure how they'd transfer character and player data from Unity over to Steam, so I'll assume they have to wipe all the servers.

I hate explaining this to people in game when they think I need a C4 blueprint. All in favor say I. I.

It would explain why my account, which was one of the first accounts, isn't letting me log in anymore. 's pretty lame.
Let's just start Fresh, a new beginning! I'm actually up for the Idea, even though if you gathered a lot of resources someone comes steals it, breaks it down or such. It's more interesting when you start fresh, well for me at least ^^
I'll gladly take the hit to my time spent if the hackers lose everything, then get VAC banned trying to get it back.
Now everyone needs to keep in mind that it is better to do a wipe so that people can actively find those who hack and report it. Being that if i am correct Hacking/Glitching will be taken more serious when it moves to steam. Not saying it isn't takin seriously now it's just Garry can only do so much, and does the best he is willing/can do.
Go the wipe... it's not that hard to get research done and get some items even as a really casual gamer.
