No idea, doesn't the digital version work out cheaper btw? 45e? And handier. Maybe cancel and go with that?

They need cash up front though :-\

Ordering off the Wild-Star website itself, do they send out a physical copy of the game or are they strictly all digital and I'd need to pre-order off GameStop to get a physical copy instead?

Want to get that Deluxe edition.

both are digital.

Not sure the deluxe warrants the extra 15e. you still get the rocket house in the standard edition.

Nice one!

Reckon I'd be able to use my Beta client for release or I'd have to redownload a 'retail' client?

Lone Stone · 19-03-2014 11:39PM

yea you can usually use the beta client if i recall correctly been a while though, i may be wrong.

Yeah you should be able to use the beta client. From what I can remember from the last time I was in a beta, the beta client will patch in the retail components, though how big that will be I couldn't say.

There's a special ''steelbox'' edition confirmed for Europe only. It's apparently the digital deluxe except in physical form.

Very little info about it at the moment but it was confirmed by them on twitter.

Unfortunately, pre-ordering for physical copies WILL NOT give you the additional pre-order bonuses.

A lot of people have made this mistake.

Pre-Ordering a digital copy gives:

Exclusive Rocket House
Exclusive Housing Trophy
Exclusive In-Game Title: "Chosen of the Progenitors"
Access to Beta Weekends
3 Day Head Start
In-game Storage Bag
And More!* [No idea what more they give tbh]

Source for this? Considering you get a beta code when you pre-order a physical copy this would seem odd.

Lone Stone · 29-03-2014 05:30PM

Anyone who pre ordered this know if their is a beta weekend on atm because i cant log in i keep getting a cant connect error message.. might be my ports hmm.. no idea what to do with

FunkyExige · 29-03-2014 05:41PM

Yes it is on, try repairing the launcher, that worked for me.

Lone Stone · 29-03-2014 05:43PM

Ah thanks il give that a go.

FunkyExige · 29-03-2014 05:43PM

Let us know if it works!

Lone Stone · 29-03-2014 06:16PM

Never mind that was just me being a total dumb ass, didnt realise i had to set up a sub for my pre order to activate.

FunkyExige · 29-03-2014 06:31PM

Have you tried the support forums? Also i assume you have pre ordered? If so have you added a monthly payment method as that can cause errors also!

Game UK says otherwise.

You can pre-order either physical edition here and still get the pre-order bonuses.

Another beta weekend is happening from tomorrow. List of sites here that have keys, some are gone already, but Alienware still have about 2000.

Lone Stone · 19-04-2014 09:45AM

The new beta update, huge improvement to performance and new ui is way better and the body shapes arent half bad !

Calhoun · 19-04-2014 04:01PM

Have the changed the body shapes?

Lone Stone · 19-04-2014 06:03PM

They added a load of different shapes you can choose from when creating your character, Like top heavy, fat, muscled and skinny stuff like that.

Calhoun · 20-04-2014 02:39AM

Nice, i got to admit the original models were off putting for me.

Eoin247 · 20-04-2014 01:34PM

They improved pvp too from what I can see. Survivability needed to be tuned down and it looks like it was.

Lone Stone · 20-04-2014 07:10PM

Yea i got a engineer and medic high enough to pvp with was good fun, i like warrior in pve but feckin hell i feel so pointless doing pvp with melee in this, just feels like im running around like a headless chicken through telegraphs.

Gave the beta weekend a try, got to level 10, felt an awful lot like TERA in the sense its incredibly grindy. Anyone else feeling this or does it get better as you progress?

Cant say i found it grindy myself, Found the leveling flowed at a nice pace. That said i only got to lvl 18 at at the highest and a few other classes from 10-15.

If you end up doing a "kill 20 slugs" mission when there's nobody else around to help speed things up it does seem to take forever.

Fwiw, I sampled most of the classes, getting to lv. 13 on my most advanced character. There's fun to be had in a party, but I found the solo experience exposed how dull the combat/levelling was.

Gunmonkey · 24-04-2014 06:50AM

Got sent a key for a "community beta weekend" from tomorrow. Just hope de laptop can run it without blowing up
