Anyone from EU Gaf online on Zhur atm? Myself (Danavas) and SourceDirect could do with an invite. I was in the guild but my terrible ocd has caused me to re-roll a Stalker ;)

If someone could chuck us both an inv whenever that would be cool. We're both in the Google Doc :)

2) I don't feel like giving my life to this MMO, is this game during end game friendly to people who aren't able to give every single days worth of available time to them? I just don't want to be at a disadvantage due to not being able to play non stop.

The developers stated stance is that raiding is inherently hardcore, so if you dont have time to meet a raid schedule I wouldnt expect to see any endgame raid content (certainly not any time soon). There is endgame PvP and there are two max level PvE zones which have dailies, rep grind and public quests. So depending on what youre looking for you may still have stuff to do.

I would mate, but Tunesmith has downgraded me from Moderator to Member so I dont have the option to invite :(

Tunesmith, what gives? :p

Edit::

Nevermind, I just noticed that was for the Circle Chat and not the Guild, lol

I was looking at the wrong screen!

I think there's more Officers than regular Members in Neo Exile.

So us regular members are clearly more special.

That's what I keep telling myself.

I really want to play this game but I don't have enough time so a monthly fee is out of the question, any chances of this game using a buy to play model or something in the future?

I would expect very few mmo's can survive with subs. Maybe in 12-24 months.

I've ran into this bug on two separate days. Restarting the client worked for me - if not the first time then the second. Still unsure what caused it though.

Does anyone have an extra 7 day trial (or however long the trial is that ships with the game)? I didn't really have a chance to spend much time in beta and would like to see if its something I'd buy. Hopefully this is okay to ask.

I wouldn't put money on that if I were you, just my opinion.

I agree. Rift lasted a very long time with a sub and was supported by a hardcore bunch of fans who loved the game.

This one has a bit more reach and honestly a better game than Rift was at launch. I see this having some very strong legs over the course of it's first year.

So the que problems have gotten better? I think I'm going to buy this today. I want to play a Chua Engineer so badly, lol.

My server(Warbringer) at max has a 1 hour, 30 minute queue at peak... but it's never as long as it says, that usually ends up being about 40ish minutes for me. It's not a huge deal and it's probably going to decrease further in the next couple of months.

That's not too bad.

Oh, unrelated question. Is the special edition really worth it? The only thing I see that's appealing is the hoverboard.

not sure if I'll have a chance to check pergo tonight... but last night is was like 2.5-3 real hours. noting that I believe Pergo is the worst PvP in terms of over-population.

I don't want to be a dick, really... but IMHO the SE is among the worst SE bonuses of any recent MMO. The costume is pretty ugly and the hoverboard is just a skin/model that likewise isn't that great. They should have really just given the SE buyers an extra 30 days as well because honestly I feel VERY underwhelmed for my $15.

I'm sorry for asking also, but does anyone have a friend pass they're willing to part with. Wanna try this game out to see if it sticks with me.

Got it to work. Yeah the combat is fun. Quite frantic for a MMO but sadly this fame runs like garbage on my older system. It's acceptable on Ultra Low but it's no fun to play like that. Gonna stick with FF14 for now but keep this game in mind for when I get a new system.

EDIT: If so, can anyone add me: Bueno (on Bloodsworn) If not then dang, bummer!

About to try a warrior alt. I like my esper but I can't shake the feeling that I'm playing right? Not really enjoying the stationary feeling and I always feel useless hanging back outside the fight in PvP, trying to get a stack so I can drop some variation of get combo pts with tk strike or psychic frenzy > root > TK storm or mind burst

To-do list: Downgrade Quick Mustard from Officer.


That said once we have some more members we'll have trial by combat to establish who gets seniority.
not really

Anyone got their trial codes yet? We were supposed to get 3 7 day trials to give out and I was hoping to give a few to my friends.
Click to expand...

Came here to ask this as well. I don't have my codes either. Guess it's nothing to worry about just yet.

EDIT: Apparently some folks have been getting them, but it's unclear if they purchased from Carbine or GMG or whatever. I got mine from GMG about a month ago, so hopefully they pull through.

NA Trial/Friend Code List:

AnimeFantasy
Ri'Orius
Firehead
Jolkien
Roy G. Biv

Later people who want to be on the list, please copy/paste the list in its entirety (including these rules) and add yourself to the end. Our heroic and handsome code-givers, please also copy/paste the list with strike tags to indicate those to whom you generously gave your codes.
Click to expand...

I'm assuming anyone who didn't specify a region meant NA (because us 'Mericans often forget that there are other regions out there).

Note that NA friend codes haven't gone out yet (and there's no firm ETA on them), so we may be in for a wait.

They are probably going to be staggering the release of these keys so that the servers don't explode.

Guests also have lower queue priority than customers that paid, so they are probably trying to get queues under control before they let too many in. They want these folks to have a great experience so that they'll purchase the game.

I will probably get Wildstar this July since I have exams until then, but can someone give me a free 7 days pass? I need to choose if i'm rolling esper or spellslinger, since I coudn't play the beta. I'm from Europe, if that matters.

I bought my copy from GMG in April but it's NCSOFT Support you'll receive your guest passes from. It seems they have been sending them out in waves throughout the day as I know some people received them quite early on, yet mine didn't show up until this evening (17:30 BST).

That makes complete sense. I don't blame them, honestly. I'd rather a little disgruntlement over a few missing codes instead of disgruntlement about servers being overloaded.

So far I'm only using TrackMaster and AMP Finder, and I like them both (especially the former).

If you're sick of constantly clicking the quest name when running around, you'll love TrackMaster.
