BUT, a wipe means that new players will get quickly destroyed in the face of playing alpha/beta players who have way more game knowledge and developed strats than them.
I think not wiping is better for the new playerbase when it launches since that means its more likely they play each other and not us. They won't play us until they've played for a while, learned the strats, and levelled their units. Meaning when they do finally face alpha players, its more likely they are on full even ground.
