Thank you, so as soon as I add the serial key to my account it will make it U specific, got it!
My thoughts exactly...I didnt like the combat at all,well the default set up anyway...I think you can change it to get a mouse aim look to it,maybe that would of helped me enjoy it more,but holding down the right mouse button to rotate the aim and camera was a pain...
Mind you I only got to level 10,as a Slinger but I dont know,just didnt get into it at all...

Spellslinger was my first class and, similarly, it didn't click with me. But then I tried some other classes and found some that were more for my style. Medic is actually cool because (so far) it gives you a variety of skills where you can move, need to stand still, or can drop AEs. Esper and Stalker were also fun. Try some more classes before the beta ends

Yyyyyeeeeeah, I'm going to go with this. Especially since I'm going to be on one of those 3 and don't want crushing queues every evening.
Woo! Thanks
There will be no queues. WildStar will be using an overflow system like GW2 has, the game will just keep spawning new instances of an area as people flood into them. Pretty sure they will have a system in place that will allow you to group up with friends and all gather into the same map.

They already do have that system. It used to be the command /pgoto but now you right click on the party leader and can move to their instance.
I can give you a guest pass once we're given them in a few days.
Dev videos about classes are hilarious and look fun. I don't know what to pick D:
It's always the problem with new MMos. I'm afraid to pick something I won't like in ten levels.
I wish we could quickly try a class mid level in a practice stadium or something right at the start.

They're adding overflow channels. That's a good thing.

It amounts to being just different 'channels' in order to make sure there's not too many people in a zone to where it has a negative impact (too much competition for mobs, reduced performance, etc).
Its what Guild Wars 2, ESO and (I think?) WoW does when the zones get filled up too quickly. Stops servers crashing, people complaining about lack of mobs for questing and just generally does better.
Little bit miffed on the removal of Oceanic tag for Widow, but I guess there wasn't enough interest in a PvP server. Understandable, as I can see PvP servers being rather low pop compared to PvE servers in WildStar, not really a big emphasis on world PvP with the two factions not entirely being at each others throats (like Alliances vs Horde). I think I'll roll on the PvE server though, just purely for the guild that my friend is running so I can enjoy raids.

Oh right. Forgot that part. There's been alot of research that was so long ago.

So do we know anything about how feasible it is to pay the monthly sub fee via in game currency? Will it require some huge commitment or can someone who picks the game up every couple days do it?
LowParry

Probably won't know for a couple of months.
Unknown Soldier

No, that's a good thing.
No, and we probably won't until a few weeks after launch. The currency price will fluctuate until it gets to a point where users are happy to pay for it. WIll also depend on people actually buying CREDD as well to obviously stimulate the market, but that will also be dependant on whether gold is a big thing or not.
are you gonna play this, illy?

The servers are online, there will be constant disconnects since they're testing authentication servers.

Ooooh, we're able to access Deluxe in-game items. Got my dye and title, but can't get the costume until level 7.

Interesting. Can't create a character. Well I can, but the create button, she does nothing. That's new.

I saw this section in the OP, but that didn't really answer my question. I thought it may be possible that someone else was organizing something other than Neo Empire (which I was told is Dominion), Paradoxical (which is a raiding guild), and Acolytes (which appears to be a strict PvP guild). I was wondering if there was anyone putting together an Exile equivalent of Neo Empire.
I apologize if I am missing something in the OP though, or if my question is obvious. Just wanted to play with some GAF bros.
TharpDaddy
Member
Sorry i don't think there's an Exile guild as of yet.
I updated the OP with some more information now that more is available. The only Exile guild is Paradoxical, but they seem to be focused on raiding (semi-hardcore), but that's a question for them.
Alboreo
Member
Okay! Just wanted to know before I looked around for another one. Thank you.
Much appreciated!

So you can add it to the OT, Neo Empire will be on Orias.
Were not a strict PVP guild just as a heads up, a lot of our members love PVPing, but end game raiding is also a goal for us. We accept all types of players though, including those who can only play a few hours a week.
Yeah, I can see how he/she was confused. The layout was pretty poor. I hope it's more readable now.
Gotcha. Think I will try and nab a 7-day pass off someone and try it (on my 4 year old laptop) before going full-price.
Thanks again!
you ask!
You also get 2% more EXP and Renown!

"Invalid name or password"? Yeah, you have to close the game completely and restart to get that to go away.
Ah, finally I have a message that solves the problem. Anybody got a 7-day code they're willing to part with? EDIT: Wait, they come at launch don't they?

Bah, I used your code and got 22% off (Thanks for that), but when I went to register the code GMG sent me it says it's expired. Been a rough day, I'm way too old and tired for further frustration.
Saw that, going to wait until monday after the clusterfuck that will be launch to make sure I am not locked out
I did test it..and had weird issue. So for those that do use it
If you get "Invalid Username or Password" you need to close the client completely. I purposely entered the wrong code once and then a valid one many times afterwards and would stay locked out. Closing the client made it work on the first try
edit: lol info posted right above...reading fail for me

The servers just went down unfortunately. They were only up so Carbine could stress test their authentication servers. They may have more ops tests this week, but beyond those we have to wait until the 31st to play.
