I can't find it and I want to have it up to refresh every now and then. Edit: Found a beta key giveaway from IGN. Downloading the client now! Thanks yall.

I'm pretty excited. I got into the beta, but never managed to finish the download, so I'm going in blind. Of course I'm out of town for a bachelor party this weekend, so I miss most of the head start too. Probably rolling engineer tank, I really need to read up on tradeshows and paths though.

I wish the male draken didn't stand with horrible posture, I'm trying to decide between one of them and a mechari for a warrior, and it would be an easy choice if they stood up like everyone else .

I hate it when things aren't homogenised and boring clones of each other too. Draken stoop owns and it bothers me that the females stand so straight.

I love the Draken combat crouch, but I don't like the actual posture slouch. Draken also look amazing with Stalker claws, so that settled me on Mechari Warrior and Draken Stalker.

It's weird, the draken stand up perfectly straight when they hoverboard They're CAPABLE of doing it but they choose not to.

Windchilla posted:so that settled me on Mechari Warrior Warrior is a weird enough class for this game -- you're in space, there are magic guns and robots, why are you using a sword, stop it -- but I especially don't understand Mechari Warriors because they are robots. Why are literal robots using swords? Like, I get that they're essentially Warforged, but Warforged have an excuse not to have guns, on account of guns not existing in D&D, and Mechari don't.

Projectile based weapons generally assume that the target has a central nervous system that can be efficiently interrupted by putting small holes into the part of the body that keeps all the other parts of the body inside. Check your skin privilege.

Science has made swords awesome again is the conceit of the class. You might as well ask why the Stalker is not a sniper.

From the wildstar website: quote:For ages, warriors throughout the galaxy would slice and dice their enemies with swords, only inevitably to find themselves confronted with something uncuttable. But then someone came up with the crazy idea of hooking a blade up to a fusion accelerator. The result? A marriage made in slaughterhouse heaven. Today's power swords come equipped with ten megatons of liquid awesome hurtage. In. Your. Fist. Because space swords own.

They also have arm cannons that shoot projectiles. And saws. And giant bungee cords made out of energy

Stalker claws are at least floaty lasery gemstoney claws (sometimes I guess), which is cool and I have no problem with it, but Warrior swords just kinda look like JRPG weapons. If they were laser swords, or Gears-of-War-style chainsaw blades, or a katana handle that shoots bullets that loop around in a blade-shaped arc I'd give it a miss, but that's just lazy. Doublestep posted:They also have arm cannons that shoot projectiles. I fully endorse these aspects of the class.

Doublestep posted:They also have arm cannons that shoot projectiles. The warrior's arm mounted plasma cannon actually shoots both the saws and the bungee cords. Please refer to the wikipedia for more information on the warrior's arm mounted plasma cannon. The warrior's arm mounted plasma cannon will not harm you.

There are swords that are sputtering chainsaw blades, There are swords that resemble the skull of a swordfish with a serrated nose, there are blades that look like cooled cracked metal and there are swords that resemble gravestones that have been dug out of the ground and are now wielded like a blade. Games got cool swords.

They're perfectly fine swords, yes, as swords go, but even after all this I cannot be convinced that in a space game a sword is a thing I'd ever want to use It's basically cartoon Firefly with cool aliens thrown in, and that means I want to use guns. What do I look like, Chiwetel Ejiofor?

Well wait, so are you joking about wanting swords that are stupid as gently caress then? If so, what's your point? No one's making you roll a warrior, and swords have a pretty long tradition of being in Cheesy sci fi. Nothin wrong with them as they are in the game.

Man, I am really glad I only check up on the Wildstar threads once every couple of days. poo poo's getting tense in here, and all I did was make fun of swords in space. All those raid/PVP derails must have people running a little hot. Calm down, dorks, I'm not actually judging anyone over what exact type of fantastical physically-impossible weapon they want to make their pretty space princess hold. I'm leaning toward the shotgun-and-helper-robots-slash-power-armor combo myself, but diff'rent strokes etc etc. Soothing Vapors posted:this is exactly why I like Warriors so much, everyone else is a future robot gun gandalf or whatever and I'm just a dumb rear end in a top hat waving a sword around See, this, this is a normal response
