I figured there would be an FAQ on this, but I searched and didn't find anything

Are hawken and meteor points going to be reset at any point_

I might as well ask about exp as well. . . is everything getting a reset at release or do I get to keep my stuff for participating in beta_

I would be very surprised if they allowed us to keep our stuff. There are still changes to be mede before release, so your current status could end up being very different, not to mention the fact that letting every keep their Beta stuff would give them a stupidly huge edge over those who just started playing at release.

I could see exp getting reset, but the points shouldn't matter so much

I'm confident that everything will get reset. There are many reasons, the first that springs to my mind is that it is only fair for everyone who joins in Open Beta.
Don't fight back. Fight forward.

Reset should be the only way. I have learnt a lot so far. When it's released upon the earth, all should be a level field IMO.

I hate to say it, but I really think that the beta testers should get some in game points to spend after the full realese. But hey thats just me.

As long as it doesn't make us testers too far above newcomers....then I agree.

I'd quite like some special cosmetic item, like a certain chassis part or a badge or something, kind of like the Primeval Warrior medal in TF2.

Australian_ Like Hawken_ Then join the Drop Bears! Or actually maybe don't, since it's kind of dead.

There will be a full wipe of all progress earned during Closed Beta. This has been confirmed by the devs several times on these forums.

The only thing you'll get to keep is your callsign (and possibly your in-game friends list).

Does anyone know if there is an Official FAQ somewhere that states this and other stuff. . . I'm still trying to find it

That makes sense, indeed.

Aside from the Alpha 'thank you' mini-gift cosmetic*, I was under the impression that nothing was going to carry over into the game proper (sans your callsign).  This is entirely correct IMHO.

Achievements aren't here yet. Could be an achievement of some sort.

We'll keep progress between this and CBE3, but once the game reaches Open Beta, our progress will be wiped. We'll get to keep our callsigns, and, as some have said, possibly our friends as well.

Not in those words, but one look at their official FAQ for CBE2 all but confirms it.

Will there be more Closed Beta Events_
Yes! We'll be announcing future events at a later date.

I'd bet on it being about another week and a half to two weeks after this one ends today, i.e; right around Thanksgiving in the US. I'm a lot less sure on a fourth, but if it does, I am pretty sure it'd be the weekend right before launch (i.e; December 7-10) and would basically be a test of what will be the initial open beta clients.
