I haven't seen anything in Wilstar to suggest it's any worse than WoW pubbies. I very rarely gank to grief but nothing breaks up collecting bear asses like some guy trying to murder you then you murdering him instead. I'd figure the possible minor inconvenience of being ganked a few times is worth having a bigger guild but I'm sure there will be spinoffs on the other servers if it really isn't your flavor.

So someone found the most amazing cosmetic hat, ever, and wore it with so much style. Don't be afraid, he just wants a hug.  In our shenanigans messing around with emotes and Winter's incredibly silly hat, I also found out that the Chua /salute emote is just as wonderful as their /bow emote.  There's just so many good things about this game I love it.

Flavor text + read my chat window to see some of the stuff it actually talks to you about.  Also I got to experience the new level 25 Adventure today and I'm not really sure if this is how you're supposed to clear the final totem. This screenshot doesn't do justice at how many npcs I had on my screen at the time. It's a pretty cool mix of Domination (There are multiple flags points you need to cap), PvPish, and some DOTA/LoL (bosses can be killed in there for buffs).

What could ever be so life-shatteringly dramatic that you feel the obtuse necessity to take on a specific, non-serious name as some sort of intentional punishment of your life? How is it that you are incapable of finding your own way to shed this INTERNET PERSONA which is like literally the easiest thing to just change your name in.  e2: I'm not even angry over this, I just really want to know, what kind of a circumstance allows you to believe that Fran the "Bunny" from FFXII (is that even accurate?? Who even plays Final Fantasy games? I thought Fran was from FFIX!) is defined as a ghost of your past and you must bear a shameful name to remind yourself of such? Because it sounds like the plotline of the next Twilight and I want to cash in on that poo poo. a cat on an apple fucked around with this message at 08:36 on May 14, 2014 |

Pretty much all of the major players in that thread are terrible people who shouldn't be on the Internet. Eesh. Got my name reserved no problem this morning. I wasn't too worried, it's not a super-common name, but I know I wasn't the only person in WoW to have it so I wanted to make sure.

AzureRequiem posted:Is 30FPS on Medium what I should be expecting for my rig (GTX 760 OC, FX-6300), or is the game still suffering from optimization issues? The game runs like poo poo on random configs regardless of the CPU and GPU vendor, so it's pretty much a coin flip. No known fixes, if deleting the NCSOFT folder in %appdata%/roaming doesn't help.

I swapped today from a Radeon 7970 running 2560x1440 to a 780ti SC @ 3840x2160 and it runs at flat 60 on both. CPU's a 3370k. It'll be something really obscure.

Argas posted:welp, barring a complete reinstall of Windows, it seems Wildstar won't work on my computer. Had the same issue when I got into the beta and gave up. OB worked so I figured the problem was past, but now it's reared its ugly head again. Can't even uninstall Wildstar because it needs the launcher. Not sure if you've tried it but you need to run the installer as Administrator.

This is a fun game. I rolled an exile though and was wondering how the pvp battleground experience is for the dominion side? It seems theres alot of people around who see exile = alliance from world of warcraft and import their lovely attitude of "why bother we already lost" or stay quiet the whole loving match and only start screaming when a loss is nearing how much exile suck.

VoLaTiLe posted:Anyone have a decent name for the EU guild was gonna make Chuas gone wildstar but to be honest thats not witty or good at all. I'd rather have a name that annoys people, like "Offical Estonian Guild". It's always fun how many questions names like that get. I did like the suggestion Terrible Secret of Space though, at least it's both a Goon name and one that fits Wildstar. Is it possible to put Hazak in the OP now? There's so few EU goons that it gets asked and has scrolled back a page or two before someone answers. quote:exile = alliance from world of warcraft and import their lovely attitude of "why bother we already lost" or stay quiet the whole loving match and only start screaming when a loss is nearing how much exile suck.

Doesn't have anything to do with faction, it's just lovely players who see battlegrounds as nothing more than another grind for rep/tokens/gear and don't want to actually fight. They just want fast and easy wins so they can maximize their gain per hour, and if they can't get a fast win they want a fast loss so they can jump into the next BG sooner.

Everything in MMOGs pushes you towards feeling and acting like all that matters is the reward rather than the experience.

Sedisp posted:It very much is. I've been on pop locked servers in pvp servers since I played mmos and have never been inconvenienced by world pvp whilst leveling for more than ten minutes two or three times on a character max. More if I'm being stubborn and trying to gank them back, obviously. It might not be much of an issue when a game is new, but as the ratio of max level:still leveling gets bigger it becomes more of an issue. CRZ in WoW has really soured me on PvP servers over the past year.

Evil_Greven posted:They are supposed to scale up, but mobs have a minimum level. You can't really solo a dungeon or adventure, but you can solo a shiphand. It's often possible to go in at a lower level (I think they assume a group here forcing it)... I know I've been able to take things several levels above my Engineer in the world (which is stuck at 32 from two months ago, killing 35+ in one zone), where as I would get melted if I were to try it on my Spellslinger. Does spellslinger change that much past 16 (Where mine is)? I'm reliably able to take on level 18-19 monsters all the time. Maybe it's the abilities you use, I've found charged shot to be a complete and utter turd. My general rotation is to open with rapid fire, flame burst if it's up, wild barrage, then finish off with the starter skill should it be needed (It's never needed). Usually at the end of this rotation I still have 3 SP left and can go right back into the rotation. Can't wait to add assassinate into the pile. It will probably go rapid fire, flame burst, assassinate, done.

I've just done my first shiphand and it was like if Alien was a TV series. I really enjoyed it, nice visuals on it too. When I get an achievement can I find out what I did to get it without having to search through my whole log? It pops up and I click on it, but that just takes you to the achievement log itself.

I'm not seeing the point of the 14 day name hold. Everyone who reserves a name preordered so it should last only through the headstart. Holding all these names hostage on servers that won't be used by the people who reserved them is dumb.

That actually might work better than scaling characters down. But if the 'normal' version scales up then what's the difference between that and the 'elder game' version at level cap? At least I vaguely recall some devspeak saying there was a 'normal' and 'level cap' version of each dungeon. Also I had to disable Steer because I can't really use my targeted AoE Medic DoT field with it on - it forces the cursor to the screen center so I have to lay the field on top of myself instead of wherever I want. Boo. e: Oh and also for completionists spergs like me, in the map screen (M) there's a button in the top left that will show you your stats for that zone (X Tasks done of Y, X/Y journals found, etc).
