I spent last night getting to level 11 and on to the fleet. Holy shit this game is much more fun when I spam spacebar. ha-ha Also, with 35% xp boost or whatever the major is, I leveled pretty quickly. Picked up playing a sniper. Can you warzone/instance grind in this game? It seems these...

My fault, I took the tone of this post the wrong way.

Essentially it allowed me to register twice with the same email and it never said I did it twice or we have you on record already.

Looks like I opened up one of the packs and now I don't have enough inventory space to play the game. Sweet.

Apparently I have 6350 cartel coins in my account. Super. I think I'll buy the ultimate leveling bundle and going places bundle.

Etch, Tide and Grim. Laura.

This whole beta sign up thing is confusing. I signed up with one email when it was launched, and I just signed up again. It didn't say that email was already registered, and now I'm irritated.

I might play this tonight to check out stuff. What server/class should I pick.

Uh have you not been reading this thread? There are at least three people in the last two pages that think EQ is magic.

I guess so, if the only comparison you are making is that both games would have challenging content. That's kind of where the comparison stop though.

That's fine. My game is buy to play, no sub. They already bought the game so I'm ok with it. There's also a ton of other content to do, so they can find something else to be good at.

In my game I don't really care about everyone having equal opportunity to have everything. If you can't do a jumping puzzle you can't have the reward. Get better. I hate how a majoirty of these games, rewards have been marginalized. Can't raid? Well do 5 man's all week and get the same amount of...

You are correct after a fashion, but it's a matter of perception to me. Just like when EQ players who were used to grinding mobs forever came to WOW and though having a check list of things to do was 100x better, this to me is the next evolution. WOW just hid the fact you were grinding 100 mobs...

Yup you certainly didn't read my post just like I thought you wouldn't.

Good question, I would assume so.

I agree 100%. No LOTRO style achievements where you get bonuses after you killed your 1000th orc. Achievements in this system would have to be on the order of killing the big bad guy of the zone (typically the end guy in a zone quest line in today's game). But in order to kill him you need to...

That would be difficult to do in an open world, I think. My idea of progression is still zone based. You're still hiding leveling and progression in a different way like WOW hid exp grinding with quests. You start off in one area and completing the zone 100% allows you to gain gear to move on to...

To Tide and etchazz: Before I say anything, there is no right way to enjoy a game because I can't tell you how you have fun. But I dislike the leveling process for many reasons. 1) I love character building. For me to begin character building I need all of the blocks and in most cases, all...

Best "leveling" system: No levels, no experience. You advance your character via completing challenges/achievements. The design evolution seems obvious to me. EQ was just killing mobs over and over again in a single area gaining experience. WOW masked killing mobs over and over again by adding...

Player made content comes in 3? forms that we know about: 1. Player Housing. Instanced. 2. Warplots - Guilds build these big things and use them to fight other guilds. 3. Settlers can help other settlers build up towns and other locations. They can improve settlements and help bring about...

That's exactly my point. Create the old "leveling" experience as a tutorial. I.e. 5 hours of gameplay or whatever. Then put the rest of your effort into creating a fun game out of that. Instead of 80% of your content made for leveling, reverse that ratio.

I'd prefer if the challenge is in the elder game/end game/whatever game rather than the "leveling game". I want it hard to get decked out in gear. Poopsocking for the win is boring as shit, challenge is fun. Re: Tuco and AOC: Yeah that was a fun part of the game, I remember doing that as...

I agree with that list to some degree or another. The only thing I don't care about is alts. Fuck that. Allow twinking becaue that shit is fun, but that would be all I care about. Also longer leveling curves is just stupid. I'd rather see a game with no levels than forcing me to spend more time...

Classes work via Milestones and Ability Points. Your ability points are like talent points. Milestones give you bonuses and augments to your skills after your stats reach a certain level. I.e. you have dinged 100 Str and now you get a buff to your dps ability. Classes, I guess, get your...

I agree with you. But I wouldn't but that as a selling point or a reason to get excited about the game.

I think that most people's expectations are solid: LFD system with cross server capabilities. Online, web based leaderboards, profiles and other things. An end game that is worth playing. Currently they have all of that, or say they will. The only thing that I'm skeptical about is their...

Mine has a great selection of doors and windows. Sometimes you can find some really good, and nice, solid wood doors.

Are you an angry hipster?

The tool is not the problem it's the content. WOW has a cross server friend list that you can build up. It's not harder to meet new people, even in shitty content, is easy. Just try talking to them. If they don't talk back, they're probably a shitty friend.

I am all about creating accessible base content. That doesn't translate into making hallway dungeons. Look at what GW2 did with it's dungeons. You rune story mode, then when you jump in again, you have optional paths. This system can be used perfectly with dungeons like BRD easily enough...

LFD didn't do anything to bad to WOW. It's shitty dungeon design did.

Nice. Boxers or briefs?

One liner? If I'm anything, I'm long winded.

Its the best non automated system, but still inferior imo to the standard lfg tool.

People would never use that system properly. Currently if you ignore people you'll never group with them again, so you have that at least.

Just in case people need to catch up, my Sr Editor put together a what we know list for the game. http://wildstar.junkiesnation.com/20...-what-we-know/

Well, my first fansite ever was WAAAGHHammer.com for WAR and my first interview was with Mark Jacobs. I have nothing against the guy, I'm just skeptical of the project solely based on those crazy design philosophy posts he made and how poorly constructed they were. edit: Looks like Denaut...

There are a lot of reasons. Some people like the group dynamic but don't really care about chatting with you. I mean I know there are plenty of times I just want to listen to music and do dungeons. I'm not there to be your friend, especially if the experience is 30 minutes. I'm not sure why...

This happens already, right now, in most games that have a LFG. People put groups together the old fashioned way, and then use the LFG tool to fill in the rest of the slots. If you care that much about chatting with people in your group, I don't know what to tell you. Due to the nature of...

I think you're missing a huge point in that WOW dungeons really don't need communication and most people are doing them for points while they watch movies. I think your issue, and mine, is really about how simple WOW dungeons are. And no matter how awesome your tool is (haha), you will never...
