It's mostly Chinese gold farmers. Once you hit level 50 via pvp bot you can run a contracts board bot. Some idiot in my guild was running a contracts board bot. Not going to lie I kinda wanted to run one too. EDIT: Since someone posted in another thread that this game still has a wildly long attunement I feel like I should correct that. It took me two days to attune after hitting 50 on an alt, and most of that time was spent getting a tanking set built and runed so I could tank my own attunement process.

Holyshoot posted:Holy poo poo that first one hahhahahhahah. Would love to see the context of that convo. When the game released it ran like crap on any kind of AMD hardware, and it turned out that not only had they not bothered to optimise the game for anything that wasn't nvidia, they actually hadn't even tested the game at all on anything outside their identical internal testing rigs. If that quote's recent, it wouldn't surprise me to learn that they still hadn't done anything about it for 18+ months.

Yeah the time now is even trying to find a group that won't disband because they have to carry not one, but maybe two people who aren't geared AT LEAST GA gear when their answer in world/LFM chat is "just do world boss runs." And now you have to rune your gear which isn't too bad but the min/maxers are crying so hard. Also drop 7 won't have any new raids but probably another daily zone or something. And thanks chairman for being the best mod in that place.

The Chairman posted:Wildstar redditors are currently competing to be the player who was most burned by Wildstar's promises Are they fighting about the next patch not having new raid content? Because this can't possibly be the first F2P transition they've seen. Content comes at a snails pace when you minimize dev resources and are coming in from negative cash flow. Nominally I'd argue if they were actually thinking adults or not but then lol mmo players are almost never rational thinking adults.

They added a boss in the box raid (Think argent colloseum or whatever for WoW). Two new five man dungeons and two new level 50 adventures. EDIT: It's been a while sooo: UPDATE from a goon who plays this bad game: Guild is now on the 2nd floor of GA, and have killed something like 6 minibosses (A boss by any other name) and 3 main bosses in the first raid. We killed the first boss (X-89) in the first week by a stupid slim margin. We spent a fair bit of time on the 2nd boss because it required 8 people be hpyer co-ordinated in phase 2, and asking folks to do poo poo like "Don't die during phase one" and "Stand where the loving addon tells you to stand" in phase 2 was remarkably difficult for people who can't read. I eventually cracked the code by telling each individual player exactly where they needed to stand, rather than just allowing them to think. We were on this boss for 3 weeks, but that has more to do with "Holiday schedules" and us often raiding a 20 man with just 15 dudes because people were traveling et al. This moved us on to the 2nd floor where we immediately knocked down all of the available minibosses before tackling our first 2nd floor boss "Phage Maw". We killed him on our 2nd night of attempts through the strategy of "gently caress it, DPS is going super fast, lets throw another alt healer at it". We also killed him in a single rotation of his phases which is drat near unheard of on a guilds early attempts. In something like 3 weeks of raiding we're getting so much BOE poo poo from trash that we're starting to guild bank it for future level 50's/alts. They throw a lot of gear at you in raids. All in all the raiding game is fun, and I think Wildstars biggest mistake was to hide it behind that stupid attunement, and frankly they fixed it far too late and this game will be dead in two years if Redmoon doesn't breath some life in (It probably won't). Ultimately they could turn this around to make it the best MMO on the market but still fail because of the sheer level of lost credibility in the eyes of the Market.

Stormgale posted:Eh if you enjoy raiding and can get the people together wildstar's raids are on par with WoW's it's just somehow maintaining 20-40 people which is the worst part It's all 20 man now. The 40 man was redesigned into a 20 man. We've got about 25~ raiders at the moment and didn't really have problems building a raid team. But our guilds schtick was we were going to take this all casually. Our requirements to be a raider are "Know your class/rotation and have all your gear runed". We provide a free crafted set of level 50 gear that imbues to better than dungeon gear, and we usually attune people over the course of a day. But if you don't feel like even being that sociable about it, so many people are pugging the first raid tier that it all works out. Five of us from our guild were pugging GA to get a "Head start look" at the content before we stepped in as a guild. I feel like my expectations for this game are about where they need to be.

CoffeeBooze posted:There are still people on the Wildstar subreddit screaming "THOSE ARE JUST ESTIMATES". Its pretty incredible to see that this far into this disaster. This is the end for a whole genre to me. In my opinion WildStar is by far the best themepark mmo released after WoW. It has the best and most challenging pve content in decades. It has one of the best combat systems which is action/skill based and there is a ton of highly polished content. Its in my opinion the best F2P game on the market and should never ever face all these population / revenue problems. Instead it should have a healthy 6-7 digit playerbase. After WoW transforming into everything i hate about today's themeparks (starting with WotlK), wildstar is basically exactly what i always hoped and dreamed for wow to come back to. So in that sense, wildstar is some sort of WoW 2.0 and the best thing in years to me, and to a lot of other guys (especially older players that loved vanilla/tbc in wow and are now raiding in wildstar) If Wildstar fails (again) and finally gets shotdown, it will mark the end of themepark mmo's for me. The shift in player mentality towards dumbed down, short session content full of conveniences is not the type of game i fell in love with so many years ago. So all good things have to end sometime and for me its the moment when wildstar shuts down its servers. There is no point in jumping on the next hype train for another theme park (especially a pve focused one), since the genre and its current playerbase has proven that there is little to no demand for the type of game i want and love.
