I would say I'd wait to play this game when it is out of NC Soft's control but as we have seen, they would rather sit on the IP of games they kill rather than letting someone else publish it.

Typically I understand english isn't everyones first or even second language and I consider your mission accomplished as long as you managed to get your message across to others. This however pushes my limits oO...
"This game is not free, it is a buy to play. It looks like the Simpsons which means it is a crap game for kids" I believe is the message, but even I am uncertain.
In any case as to the topic, I can't decide on WildStar until I have played it myself. Theres a lot to like and dislike for me, the dislikes seem to be winning. I won't decide until I have played it for myself though.
i love how people says its a wow clone or wow 2, first of all ITS NOT A WOW CLONE.!!!!! Why how about use your brains, I say that because if it was a wow clone it would be the same thing as wow and actually it isnt because this game has player housing and wow does not. I just love how everyone thinks that new games has to evolve around wow or some shit. But you know i may try this and may like it may not like it i dont know but i know one thing i play STO,SWTOR, and SWGemu and love all of them. So i dont have to ask permission from the wow gods to like something or not.
I'm definitely going to be checking this game out, i'm very excited about starting the beta, been checking the website every day hoping the beta is up.

^^ Seriously. I can't get past it. The graphics are already bad enough. The game itself needs to be good enough for the graphics not to matter but so far I'm not all that impressed.
The art style might not appeal to everybody but you cannot say that the graphics are bad, it's a very well made graphically. and as for global cooldowns i think it brings balance to pvp, the fact that someone could just rape his keyboard and win, sounds like a bad idea to me.
Attacks, movement, monster reactions seem to have weight to them, and I love that. As long as it's not a floaty crap feeling, I'll be happy.
How can anyone diss the graphics or art style? Just conclude that it's not your cup of tea and kindly move along to the next title.
Not every title coming up has to run on the latest graphics engine with all kinds of bells and whistles.
How I think that'll benefit Wildstar is that the artists will be able to focus more on the art direction without having to worry with an overly complex graphics engine and simply come up with content pronto.
This is one to keep my eyes on. I'm watching you, Wildstar o_-
Combat where the players avatar just stands there and takes humungous hits without even flinching. At least SWTOR had the decency to add choreographed combat animations - pretty good for a 2007 game released in 2011. Particle effects galore only get you so far. I can tolerate the art style of Wildstar, but animations can make all the difference.
Rather boring demo overall. Maybe I'm missing something? Instanced housing isn't turning me on either since many other MMORPG's already did that.
I guess someone who thinks WoW is the only MMORPG around might like this game. /shrug
This is like a mmo with a twist. We have been getting these types of mmos since WoW and they all have pretty much failed horribly. Don't see how this will be any different.

I hope Carbine has some kind of out clause.

WoW 2
will probably get 10 million subscribers
I can't say it was amazing to me. Looked very derivative and while this might be good, it just doesnt engage me.

It's coming along nicely!

I must have missed the amazing part..

Recognize the voice? Yep sounds like Penny Arcade's Extra Credits.
Oh but according to the devs: "we wanted to do anything but wow."
