A brave soul posted a pvp gameplay video on YouTube. Since it's NDA breaking, I'm not sure if it's ok to link it here. Lots of particle effects.

It's because the video is unlisted and is only accessible with a direct link. I've asked Draegan before about NDA stuff...and he's said he doesn't care if you link to stuff that's already up and floating around anyway.http://www.reddit.com/r/WildStarOnline/look at the reddit...it has the information about the youtube video as well as other stuff. I usually check that one everyday for stuff since people usually post NDA stuff on there.

I think there's a direct relationship between your skill level and your likelihood to post NDA-breaking videos. That dude (and seemingly every other dude posting leaks) is fucking terrible.

That being said, there's lots of little details to be gleaned from the video. Looks like basic attacks are castable while moving (maybe class specific?), sprinting takes a resource, looks like you can store/recharge sprinting with an ability, etc.

I'm definitely one of those people who'd post NDA breaking shit. I never got sent to detention as a kid /firstworldanarchist.

- The raidframes on the left and the FPS / latency window on the right are player-made addons.

- While characters don't seem to have inertia and respond well to movement, there's a lot of rubberbanding / iceskating (during dodges, sprint, strafing).

The rubberbanding and iceskating is only a small concern since that tends to happen when you are doing shows at a convention sometimes.

Not sure if you're looking at the PVP video or another, but in the PVP video it's clearly being taken during a stress test session. You can see people chatting about it in the chat frames.

That would explain the 200ms / 25fps that guy is experiencing. I also noticed someone named "Caydiem" talking in the guild chat, probably the same Caydiem who was in WoW US CM team and now working as a developer in Cabine Studios. And yes, it seems that the strange disease currently infecting internet gaming journalists, making them play like lab chimpanzees, is also infecting beta leakers. Here's the MEGA link for the PvP video :https://mega.co.nz/#!FdcCxKrQ!MlC7fF...hfFWmx56xmfiGI

I gave him the benefit of the doubt and assumed he's asking questions and/or being guided to different spots and is thus distracted.

For a MMO vet, he's having huge issues activating his skills while moving, a sedated lab rat would move better.
Uhhhhhhh hold the fuck on a second.
If that guy is an MMO Vet, then I must be the fucking He-Man of the video game Universe. That was some of the newbiest gameplay I've ever seen. He was almost totally confounded by the 'shoot down the helicopters' quest, and other standards mmo tropes... seemed to have only crude understanding of the UI which is similar to many MMOs... Did you watch him attempt that jumping puzzle?? Either he's a mouthbreather, never played GW2, Rift, EQ2 or WoW, or this game's controls are awful. MMO vet my ass.

You do know I'm quoting someone there, right ? You're not supposed to need a giant "SARCASM" sign to comprehend my post, especially when "sedated lab rat" is used to define the guy's gameplay.

If you really are that scared to post an NDA breaking video just make a fake email and make a new username here and post it. I highly doubt any admin here gives a fuck though.
