It would be a horrible business choice if IMC were to ever implement a wipe. Talk of that is just silly, to those that have mentioned it.
Players have:
A) Paid real money to play this game.
B) Have planned vacation time from work around this launch
C) Have invested hundreds of hours already
Wiping when IMC specifically said there would not be a wipe this time around would be horrible. They could not even refund players had they wanted to much less make up for their time. TOS is based largely on progression and is not a session-based game that you can just hop in and go, score some frags, and log off and be happy to start over again next match.
Punishing 99% of the population that is undoubtedly innocent for a potential exploit that some are abusing, and possibly RMT/botters, does not make sense and is a horrible suggestion.
A roll back isn’t much better when OP mentions that the exploit may have been in use from launch. Meaning that the purpose of a roll back (to set back to a time prior to the damage being done) would be defeated and it would essentially be a wipe at that point.
I agree wholeheartedly that if this is being abused that a banhammer needs to fall and it needs to come in swiftly and with such force that the exploiters and their whole family simultaneously burst into flames rue the day they messed with our game <3
