Well it does say things are taken, but it won't confirm whether or not my name that I tried to Reserve is actually reserved.

Well gently caress, running into the 0xc00007b application error I had from an earlier beta client then. The open beta client worked fine but guess something's happened to screw that up.

This what they have to say about that, but really who the gently caress knows at this point. WildStar Operations @WildStarOps · 11s #WildStar, Name reservations are NOT reset. Names are still saved. The lag between the website and server is causing empty boxes.

After saying I had my name now it's saying the name is taken and to choose another. At least I got my guild name but I wanted the character name more. Oh well.

http://rest.wildstar-online.com/api/gnpnr This will show you what name and guild name you got reserved. I got the wrong name reserved because this system is dumb. So, hooray.

The bummer is they seem to be holding to this which means whoever gets hosed just gets to deal with it because their system tanked.

That's not good PR. As someone who hasn't been reading the official forum thread all day, I don't understand if this means they're caving to public opinion or if there's some kind of serious bug in the system (as Boogalo's post would suggest). Or if it means something else entirely. And I can still go to the site for name reservations even though he says they're taking it down? What is "this" that he keeps talking about?

So, there's no chance of a guild on a PvE server? I really do not enjoy world PvP at all and probably would not like playing on Pergo very much unless it has a lot less PvP than I'm guessing (what is it, every level 20+ zone is a free for all?) I may try if it's the only option (I don't know anyone but goons playing this) but I'd definitely like to hear if there is a PvE guild.

Tokaii posted:I've been trying to do that for the last six hours Yeah their servers are pretty hammered today due to the name reservation fiasco. The actual game server seems okay, but if you need to register or get the client, welp. Have we decided on a server for the PvE Dominion guild yet?

From my understanding, once you depart from the station to the first PvE questing area that is when PvP starts as well. So basically, you could be killed right out of the gate from high level players right when you first step off the boat. Nexus - Always Nexus. It's probably going to have the most players at start anyways.

One thing I like about the cross realm reservations is that now I can make a character on every realm without having to think up a new name or hit the random name button until something pops up.

While I am enjoying the game a bit, is it just me or does anyone else feel the abilities are inconsequential? They all feel very similar and exactly alike. It's true that while I'm playing my warrior as a damage dealer or tank, the abilities are a bit different but they don't feel differential enough to matter. Maybe this is something that is resolved near the endgame but right now it kinda feels like I can put any similar skill in a slot and my performance won't really change significantly.

What you got for a response was basically automated and based on the assumption you have already applied the key to an account. So you should be okay. They are going to see that the key hasn't been applied to any account and you'll be okay.
