Disagree. They've already stated that the process of getting into raids is going to require a significant time investment. There's going to be some type of flagging/key quest/what have you that will require you to have done the majority of the elder game content before being able to access the...

I'm confused. You say that like it wasn't the highlight of FF:ARR? You're welcome. Monday's do suck but so long as you're not expecting much innovation you'll get plenty of fun out of the beta. Super secret PM sent to does that have asked. Will make some type of post regarding everything...

Pajac, Taxt & Catpokes are confirmed in. Sean said he'd download it and give it a shot & Sutekh gave Censura a key. That means we can have our entire group back for the glory of internet dragon slaying; that demands a hardcore attitude & approach!

The MMORPG article linked earlier stated that both the 20 & 40 man raids will be available at launch but that they would be 'considerably difficult to enter' or some such. Poor Cinge & Sutekh are probably sick of my PMs trying to convince them to come raid.

I'm still positively enthusiastic about it. There's enough good in Wildstar to warrant my purchase. At the end of the day, I don't care about big breasted cartoony characters (although I do care that it shows a willingness to cave to vocal forum warriors). I think that for players who want an...

Don't get me wrong, I loved EQ. I think it did a lot of things brilliantly and I have a lot of great memories: unrest trains, friends falling down the well in befallen, lguk camping for my fbss, lodizal spawn monopolization, I could go on and on. Hell, I 4 box'd in EQ grinding countless AAs so...

I played EQ for the better part of a decade - nothing that Brad was part of designing was difficult. The only 'difficult' raids came afterwards (OMM, Performer event, Sendaii, etc). I quit before APW came out in Vanguard but nothing in that game was difficult either, especially not when compared...

Because despite how excited people are about the possibility of what a Brad MMO could bring not many people seem to realize just how amateur this whole project & Kickstarter is. See how in the above post he's talking about Guk? That's because they know that people loved Guk; expect them to...

Beta forums are always shit and even more so once the masses are in the beta. It's comical to read some of the stupid ideas people have until you realize that most dev studios take that feedback seriously.

It's likely because I didn't have my morning coffee yet but this cracked me up far more than it should have. I'd net you if well, yeah. Someone linked (or talked about) the MMORPG.com article a few pages back, it had one of the senior devs talking about some of the upcoming stuff they're...

Four pages arguing about breasts size. Anyone else feel that their plan was to put that change in so that we wouldn't talk about the lack of new content in this patch? :P

Check your PMs. I"ll be looking forward to dinner!

This is going to be an interesting patch. Crazy amount of new players + new content. Any speculation on what level they'll raise the cap to?

Have about half a dozen friend keys left, was someone keeping track of the list of people who still needed so that I can just base it on most reputable poster?

The latest batch of friend keys to those who qualified are being sent tomorrow morning (Tuesday, January 14th) at 9AM PST. With this batch, we noticed a number of people opted-out of receiving emails from NCSOFT and WildStar. If you did not receive your friend keys and you're sure your...

I'm really curious to see who ends up being the best healing class in Wildstar. Espers are currently the top based on the fact that their heals are just more potent than the other two but I don't see that advantage lasting all the way at level 50. I mean, medics are the only healers capable of...

This. It would be akin to saying that Kaladim is the tutorial zone and butcherblock is the second tutorial zone for dwarfs in EQ. I.E. no one uses that kind of reference or thinks of it that way. Poster was just trying to highlight that Wildstar takes awhile to get into. Edit: Reference is...

Agreed with Kunitz. My understanding of the situation is that Crosby's style of play is extremely difficult for a winger to compliment consequently Team Canada brought him in after he showed that he was 'olympic quality'. I don't really agree with it but I can see the logic. The defense is...

Since people here keep talking about flex raids and their hatred of 40 man raids I figured I'd drag out a quote from a Wildstar dev taken from:http://wildstar-central.com/index.ph...-3#post-152110 "I wasn't trolling. The joke is that you guys seem to think we don't know that 40-mans are...

I'm hoping this means you've come to terms with being my healer. Cinge can be our DPS medic in that case. :P

You won't find an exact quote from Carbine but here are some links that are somewhat reliable to give you an idea of where the dates are coming from: http://massively.joystiq.com/2013/08...14-release-wi/ http://massively.joystiq.com/2013/08...ldstar-launch/ Basically, NCsoft originally...

I don't necessarily disagree with this however Draegan nailed it when he said there needs to be some way to respec/change. I just don't feel that the respec should be easy to do like it's current implementation in MMOs. In EQ, you could realistically have invested quite a bit in your character...

Definitely planning on forming a guild for this with some of the board posters. Will post more details once NDA drops to avoid the potential bad (for anyone interested).

The bad of Wildstar: - The leveling is dull and uninspired. No one likes quest hubs anymore and this game has a crazy amount. - The game is extremely buggy. I haven't seen anyone talk about this much but for a studio that has so many WoW devs, I feel like it lacks polish. - Most classes are...

"I think we have to know what we're taking with Bobby," said Burke, who was the Anaheim Ducks' general manager when they drafted and developed Ryan. "He's a passive guy. He is not intense. That word is not in his vocabulary. It's never going to be in his vocabulary. He can't spell intense."...

I think that in a situation like this, there's bound to be a few surprises/upsets. My big issue with the team is that they didn't seem to focus or care much in reference to the ice surface when selecting the players. Keep in mind it's been decades since either the US or Canada won on the larger...

I put Yandle ahead of Martin, Faulk, & Orpik. I'd also try to squeeze in Byfuglien. Team USA has no depth at center (Kesler is penciled in as the #1 there), having mobile defensemen that can move the puck out fast is going to be key for the US, especially on the large ice. I think the defense...

No to both. That roster really has some head scratchers, especially on D.

Nice goal to tie it given the ice conditions, happy to see the crowd really getting into the game now.

Detroit deserves to win based on the first two periods but Bernier has kept Toronto in it. Should be a fun third.

Anyone else watching the winter classic? With all the snow falling there isn't a whole lot of offense but it's still a pretty entertaining game.

The NDA is still in effect for everyone, including for the 1-15 game minus for a select few who were invited by Carbine to stream those levels.

You're certainly giving hypothetical_investor_01 a lot of credit. Here's a more likely scenario: Lets say Brad raises 15 million and the project ends up going down in flames due to all that money getting spent on crack and hookers. The next developer, the one with a vision who would have made...

Just finished reading a recent article on the 40 man raids (link:http://www.warcry.com/news/view/1304...Raid-Mechanics) and it sounds like they're willing to scrap the idea passed the original zone if it doesn't work out. Since I'm part of the reach max level asap and get to the end game crowd...

I'm looking to purchase a new video card. I've recently purchased (and been loving) two korean monitors that were mentioned earlier, so I'm gaming in 2560 x 1440 resolution and I've noticed a bit of a slow down. Reading over the last few pages, there seemed to have been some mixed information...

I don't mind the AMP system. Anything that improves character customization is a good thing in my mind. It's also important to note that the AMP vendor shouldn't normally have them all for sale like it does now. They're meant to be earned through playing the game - which is a great idea if...

Looks like they're handing out up to 3 extra friend keys in Mid January, should see a whole lot of extra people in beta at that point.

That was kind of the point. ESPN focuses more on American coverage since that's their target audience. TSN focuses more on Canadian coverage, since that's what their viewers tend to watch/care about. Right now on ESPN, of the 12 headline stories, 1 involves a Canadian team. Of the 7 headline...

Silly TSN focusing on coverage/teams that their viewers care about. When was the last time that ESPN's NHL page didn't have either the Bruins, Rangers, or Capitals on the front page?

That was kind of the point. WoW had Warcraft 3 that had launched not very long before it's release and had an established story that allowed you to give a shit about what was going on. I have enjoyed listening to the datacubes in Wildstar and I feel that they're doing an 'ok' job with the...
