It feels like vanilla did when I started playing WoW.

Overall through beta the game was very well received by mmo players.

The combat system is very different to anything else that exists, so you should watch some gameplay videos.

There are 6 classes and 2 factions of 4 races each, and each class can have 2 specs as well as can effectively function as two roles (trinity), so everything can be tank/dps, or heal/dps, and all you have to do to switch is change your specs (instant if out of combat), and change gearsets because they obviously don't use the same gear.

I like the loot system and the crafting system personally. Everything that drops in the game poops out of monsters onto the ground and you press a button (v) that vacuums up the loot.

It should be noted that the game is extremely quest heavy, but so is WoW. Many quests can be turned in in the field through a comm, even ones with quest rewards to minimize the trips you have to take back to the NPCs (but not all can be turned in this way).

The dungeons are quite hard the first time through and not so challenging afterward if everyone knows what to do.

Interrupting is interesting in this game, as bosses have armor preventing them from being interrupted that has to be removed with interrupts before you can actually interrupt the boss. For instance, most early bosses/minibosses have 2 interrupt armor, therefore you have to use 3 interrupts to actually interrupt them.

There are 20 and 40 man raids that are going to be hard as fuck. They expect that no one will be able to fully gear up from the 20 man raid in under one month from launch (the 40 man is after the 20 man).

There's really just so much to learn about this game that you gotta go through the devspeaks if you're serious about playing it, especially since you didn't get to experience any of the beta. There is a lot of things that would be helpful to know before starting, and certainly before investing.

It's like WoW in that you have to buy the game and pay a sub, but if you play a lot you can buy the sub from other players for igc if you wish to alleviate the sub burden ($15/mo normally).

Sry for wall :x

Installed the game, run around 15 minutes, uninstalled ...

its defenitly not my game ... and the controls really suck, as it is not mouse locked you have to move left and right ancles yourself which gave me much troubles with focusing as i had to press A, D while fighting and Q, E or right mouse to swap the camera ... not like every normal action combat MMO that has a mouse lock.

But yeah i gues lot of people like it ... but there are at least the same amount that doesnt ...

so its best to just try it out

All of your movement is customizable. I've already fully customized mine.


Wildstar is probably the best MMO that has come out in the last half a decade. Nothing comes even close to its fluency, mechanics, release state, developer support.
Everything is instant reactive. Mechanics are very high skill cap and rewarding. There are very minimal bugs (for a new release game, that is), end-game is ALREADY EXISTING, there are 5+ types of PvP ready to go, and the developers care A LOT about their product and are always trying to improve. They come out in the open when they screw up.

Carbine is amazing.

The only problem I have with the game is the leveling process. Very linear and one dimensional. If I can get through the leveling process I'll love this game for a long time.

Been playing since winter beta and preordered...

The reason this game doesn't have much hype is the early game / questing is ridiculously boring. Big mistake there by CRB.

Rolling on a pvp server.
