WildStar

Been known for some time now and has never really shown interest but for me it's kinder looking fun even though it dose have that young age feel to the game, a little like WoW.

This was just released, housing system.

I expect the leveling and story in this game to be pretty good, but PVP i just can't see it being anything special.
Created by NCSoft so it could have a life spam of 1-2 years -.-.

I have a feeling i posted about WildStar a while ago but couldn't find it to update it, still no release date but they are recruiting Beta Testers.

i've been following this from the beginning, really like the artistic style to it. that housing system looks good, but as you say, i dont think pvp would be any good 1v1, i think it's gonna be more of a larger battle with big guns etc tbh.

i'll be playing it once it comes out anyway. not that interested in getting in to beta.

Any release date been announced yet? lost track of this months ago but i see Beta has started, thought it be a early 2014 release but cannot find any information on a release date.

 

[Far]

no set date from what i last saw. they keep saying open beta is spring though.

I applied for Beta for this in 2012 I think! Still no joy yet, game looks very borderlandish looking forward to trying it

Well their was weekend access this weekend from friday and ends today. i missed out on a beta key though

 

[Sanity]

Another beta weekend, didn't realise i had been invited to the last beta but i missed it, got another invite for this weekend so gonna give it ago, anyone eles get in?

 

[Far]

yeah i missed the last one too got one for this weekend so will be playing tonight onwards. Likely as an explorer.

Did the last weekend, and playing a little this weekend. Honestly don't want to play too much as I would prefer to experience all of it when I actually keep my character.

So far I love it, this one might actually keep my attention away from WoW's next expansion, which is a good thing.

Loving it so far. Had to come off it so i get something to eat, otherwise i'll be playing it all night.

Not gonna play too much as i also don't wanna get use to my char then loose it in July

Lose it in July ey? :P Release is sooner than that, and head start is at the end of May too if you preorder!

Sorry i meant June :P 1st is open day, or a day early (i think) if you've preordered.

Nice game, like how it has it's own style, lore side of things looks very good. The general gameplay is too slow for me, combat especially very slow, this whole self aiming trend coming out is good, i did enjoy it on Tera but here it just isn't challenging enough, it's really too hard for you to actually miss a target even if you tried and i think this will ruin the PVP to the game as well.

Still getting it though.

 

[Far]

yeah i thought combat was a tab slow too. found i was key bashed alot more than using any skill.

So many bugs in it too, so i really hope they fix them by launch.

Also found questing to be a tad frustrating, having to constantly click the arrow to point me in the direction to go. I found tera quest to be really easy, it was more or less in a linear progression through the map and you would only pick up quests near to where you had to do them.

Though i do like being able to turn in some quests without having to return to the quest giver, and the random quests and challenges that come up are a nice feature.

Will be getting it come release, but i don't think i'll bother with buying it before then. Still have high hopes that this will finally be the mmo i can stay with for a few years.

So headstart begins in 5 days, who is still around and going to be playing this?
