Wildstar is now free-to-play through Steam

I don't play shitty MMOs because I actually have taste.

Hahahaha, maybe I should go download Defiance and Battleborn and make it a ded gaem trio.

I'm completely burnt out on MMO for the next 5 years.
Also, it looks kinda bland.

It's offline. You can't get ingame through steam
https://login.ncsoft.com is also down
>>
Can't wait to see the flood of negative reviews on the Steam page..
>>
I leveled to 50 when it went f2p and it was fun, nice that the story and questing wrapped up at max level

and then I stopped playing not for any reason in particular
>>
>>340540795
Guild Wars 2 is also free to play and a thousand times better
>>
>>340541489

uh no it isn't

you have to buy the box for that SJW garbage
>>
>>340541941
nope, you can play everything other than the expansion stuff for free
>>
>>340540795
Leveling.
>>
It's a MMO
>>
>>340542013

HAHA YEAH WOW IS FREE TOO :)

JUST TO LEVEL 20 LOL

kill yourself
>>
NC is going to kill it soon like they killed Tabula Rasa. I'm surprised WildStar lasted this long.
>>
It was mentioned in a previous thread from a Carbine insider that Wildstar is basically on life support and maintained by a skeleton crew. They failed to secure a deal in China, so it was a massive blow to Carbine; the Steam release is the last chance at money. They want to ride it for as long as they can until the wheels fall off.
>>
>>340541219
The reviews are actually mostly positive so far. They generally talk about the presentation and how it's arguably the "most fair" F2P MMO out there.
>>
>>340541941
Vanilla games is free with no lvl or area restriction.
You can even WvW and PvP
>>
>>340540795
I don't play dead games.
>>
>>340541207
Don't tell me they fucked up the launch a third time.
>>
>>340540795
I though I wanted, but I didn't.
Just like everyone else.
>>
>>340540795
The story of Wildstar is like Battleborn in not funny.
>>
>>340542339
SJW game aside (Don't waste money buying story content) the main game went free when they put out the expansion. Still not worth playing though, leveling is a grindfest, pvp is unbalanced shit (you will lose to people with expansion specializations.), raids and dungeons are zergs with no real strategy.

Such a shame too. The first game was great.
>>
>>340544891
I mean the story behind the game, not the lore. Fuck Battleborn.
>>
>steam

One more reason not to play it.
>>
MMORPGs are literal trash.

Star Wars Galaxies was fucking great. MMORPGS aren't trash, just stale and dead, in large part due to community issues.
>>
>>340545274

A lot, if not most community issues are born from design issues though.

Its not a good game and already occupied with another MMO and don't have time to bother with another one on top of everything else I'm playing.

I feel so sorry for this games community

>>340540795

While it might be 1000 times better it's still not worth your time

it has shallow character and gameplay design.

>>340540795
wish it was more like gw2. but instead it went with world of warcraft.
>pick a faction

>no draken engineers

home builder is the best thing about wildstar
>>
>>340540795

Played the game at launch with a friend, got to level 50 in around a month and quit shortly after that. The combat was decently fun and housing was neat, but class balance was all over the place and dungeons had strict requirements for getting gold medal or w/e. I'm sure things have improved, but I've got no real desire to go back and my friend is most likely the same, he played Esper and I played Engineer, Esper was gimped as fuck when the game first released. The main thing I liked about Wildstar was the housing.
>>
Because my brother and I share a 300gig a month limit and dl'ing a 30gig game is frowned upon

I remember the game's art style was constantly characterized as Blizzard-lite. Are the cinematics at all representative of the overall art style?

Game was too fucking easy, if there's no challenge then I'm not going to bother playing it

Inb4 it's more challenging when you get to endgame. No it fucking isn't, the devs didn't bother to balance anything to make it fun so it's just a god mode face roll. Then when you try pop it takes 5 years to kill anything.

Game was shit out of the gate.
>>
>>340552838
Pop = pvp
>>
>>340552838
I thought one of the game's fatal flaws was appealing to the vanilla hardcore raider (even though that's mischaracterized).

So is it good or not?
>>
>>340555108
Just poked my head back in, leveled to 50 and got all the PvP gear a while back. Nothing has changed and there wasn't a single player near the PvP or Raid vendors in the city.
>>
>>340555709
So it's kinda barren, then?

I wonder why.
>>
>>340540795
I actually tried it and its fun during the first 20 levels, after that you get bored af, not to mention that the only players you will ever see in a whole playing session are Lv 50 who will give no shits about you.
>>

eh, if i had the space, maybe.
i don't get why these games weigh so much.

you're joking, right?
>>
>mmo that turned from buy to play to free to play
yea no. I always avoid games like that. its obvious that they're dying. gw2 is kinda the exception if only because barely anyone plays the game for the f2p experience. but I dont even play that.

Supposedly, the F2P is very "fair." The cash shop only provides cosmetics and convenience.

I didn't play this shit when I paid for it, I won't play when it's free.
