Lets play Wildstar together!

Wildstar went Free-to-Play
My story:
So the Wildstar thread on mlpforums is pretty much dead, I posted in it with the new Free-to-play update in hopes of seeing more of my dear friends from here at the forums to join me in the game! Play together, enjoy housing, all that good stuff. I post status updates about Wldstar, and they go unnoticed (which seem like my status updates in general, which is sad). The EQD guild Space Ponies is pretty much dead. as about 90% of all members have not logged on in 1 year. Even steam friends that expressed interest in playing together (and even got into the Wildstar Free to Play rush). It is saddening when anypony and everpony you know will not even give you the time of day :( It gets to be exceptionally disheartening. </3

 

mlpforums thread here

 

But enough about that ... for now I guess. I want to play Wildstar, I wish to invite people to the brony guild Space Ponies (founded by Sethisto, who sadly has not logged on in over a year.) I want to be able to enjoy Wildstar, the fantastic game it is, and talk pony with my pony friends. I play both Exile and Dominion (however I just re-started my Dominion characters since my old ones were deleted in the character cleaning.

 

Wildstar is Awesome!!
There is so very much I want to talk about, so much to explain why the game is worth your time, but I will have to leave that to their promotional videos. Which I will tell you that the trailers live up to the kind of game Wildstar is.even with the free-to-play transition. Which I would like to add, are among the LEAST money hungry companies I have ever seen. They are such wonderful people those developers. Everything in the shop (excluding ONE item; which are gypsy fortune key things) can be bought just by playing the game! Even premium membership! They have a thing called the cosmic rewards program (awesome; good rewards for reasonable ranges just for supporting the game!). And did i mention everything is reasonably priced? Im talking to the point where its quite cheap to just about EVERY other F2P game. Personal bank terminal, use one anyone you are to access your bank! you can buy that with like 30 omnibits ... you can earn like 130 a WEEK, and they are relatively easy to come by since you get them from killing mobs, completing quests, etc. the NC coin (premium currency) prices are quite cheap too! $5 gets you 400, some things are as cheap as 30 or 40, etc. I havent been following all the prices much but overall its quite reasonable. But all things in all, they are great people, and for all that they deserve the money all the more. Especially with how they aren't gauging people for money.

 

Free-to-Play currencies done right!
Platinum/Gold/Silver/Copper are the normal currency earned just from playing the game
Renown is a currency earned just by playing with people, be it a dugneon, expedition, raid, questing, or even just killing normal monsters together.
Prestige is a currency earned from pvp
Omnibits are the currency earned by various means from playing the game (killing monsters, doing quests, etc.)
NC Coins are the premium currency bought with real life money
Service Tokens are the currency earned from login rewards, omni bits, and NC Coins, like they are actually only used for convenience (dye clothes, use teleport before their normal cooldown, etc.)
C.R.E.D.D are redeemable tokens that give 1 month "signature service" which is basically the premium membership of the game. They can be bought using platinum/gold/silver copper through the C.R.E.D.D exchange in-game
Cosmic Points are earned from spending money on the game, which ranges from purchasing NC Coins, purchasing signature service, and in the spirit of not leaving Free to play players out of the mix, you earn 1,000 Cosmic Points just for redeeming C.R.E.D.D while the person who purchased the C.R.E.D.D with real money earn 4,000 just for buying it. The ratio is 3,000 per the $5 USD, this does not include bonus points for things such as purchasing 3 month+ signature service.

 

There are more that do not directly relate to real money, such as crafting vouchers, elder gem points, prestige (pvp currency), and renown, but those are used for different things etc.
So yea, if your interested just post here or in the Wildstar thread, and show your interest. I would certainly appreciate it, and i sincerely look forward to playing together :pinkie:
I strongly recommend you watch a few videos from the two playlists listed below to see what Wildstar is about!

 



Wildstar System Requirements
I recommend especially checking out paths, combat, and housing videos.

 

All my characters are on the PvE server Entity!

Well its free, so really its just downloading the game and hopping on when you have time :D No real commitment to having to pay a subscription or anything.
