WildStar: Housing Detailed in New Video Diary

    When NCSoft first announced it, I was like "ooo". Then I saw the combat video and was like "ooooooo". Now it's going to have housing from release, and it's not the freaking "hang on a hook" like LOTRO? "oooooooooooooo".

     

    I signed up for beta months ago.  I'm guessing they'll start beta testing soon after I'm bored with GW2. That would be perfect timing:) The only other game I'm looking forward to is Repopulation.

    Housing = more appeal for a strong demographic, stronger retention, and more cosmetic crap to sell in your cash shop.

    Games launching WITHOUT housing in the modern era are silly IMO.

     

    Wildstar is shaping up to be a real sleeper hit.

    This game looks to be coming along pretty well, and that video was awesome! It actually got me to laugh and it was fun, where I was kinda expecting to be embarrassed for them by watching it. lol

    That was really well done. I will definitely be watching this game.

    Meh...it's cool and all, but its a sci-fi game!  Give us our own customizable space ships!  Let us have ships we can fly in, and not just for our character but our friends in game as well.   Let them fly with us.  Let them man the guns.  Do engineering stuff.   Make it more sci-fi.

    I wonder if this will work into the "Settler" path, where you can start towns or trading posts. That would be kind of neat.

    I can not remember winning or losing a single debate on the internet.

    Do we really KNOW that they WON'T do any of those things?  I don't know....seems pretty edgy and whimsical and weird to me.  They just MIGHT!

    I know what you're trying to say, but SF doesn't automatically entail space ships and flying through space. I wonder if this housing is going to be completely instanced per-island or are they going for neighborhoods ala LotRO.

    I got all excited reading about player housing in a new game then reality hit when I watched the video and saw the cartoon graphics. :(

    Maybe it's me but the graphics look like WOW.

    cool teaser video, very creative, this is on my sleeper list, it replaced Prime:Dominus the minute I heard Sonya go on her stupid rants.

    this game is actually (somewhat) peeling my attention away from archeAge...  looking forward to more

    You have my attention!

    Was not expecting that. Lets see how it is going to shape up. I will put it on my inspirational list. Make Player Houses fly is actually a brilliant idea, which provides countless possibilities and solves a few design problematics. Hopefully, they understand that themselves.

    Looking forward to more info...^^

    I've been watching Wildstar out the corner of my eye for quite a while now. I really like their humour image

     

    They're not using a semi-cartoon style like WoW, they seem to be going all-out cartoon, and it looks like hilarious fun, if the video's up 'till now are anything to go by. The game design looks quite solid, but the game certainly doesn't take itself seriously.

     

    Wildstar is now my #2 most anticipated future release !

    I've always had somewhat of a good feeling about this game, had no idea it would feature housing and that makes me a happy panda! Also, thumbs up for the funny, well-made video!

  • LeucentLeucent Member Posts: 2,371
    Very much looking forward to this game.

    Not many upcoming MMO's interest me. But WildStar definitely does. The art style is beautiful.

    They look more like something Pixar would produce, to me. Not a bad thing at all.

    Also reminds me of the graphical style of the Orcs Must Die! games.

  • heartlessheartless Member UncommonPosts: 4,993
    The video was funny and the game seems interesting enough. I'm just not a huge fan of the character models. They are a bit too stylized for my taste. I'll keep an eye on it though. The game does seem intriguing.

    Love the idea of a planet that has content just for your play housing. Breath of fresh air. This game is quickly becoming a must watch closely. Wonder if this will be F2P or B2P.

    This reminds me of Ratchet and Clank on PS2 hahaha great!
