I'd be down to play with some rerollers but I don't want to play on a blue server =/.
There really won't be any difference in this game past the initial wave. And the difference on that initial rush will only be to make it slower.

Carbine has managed to make a game where open world pvp is even less meaningful/fun and more zergy/2shotty than it usually is in these kinds of games. Its impressive how bad it is.

I mean it's your dollar... but you'd have more fun doing completely random LoL matches than that.

Sometime during the 2nd winter beta patch, whenever i log in and press right or left mouse button my character just spins and the camera immediately goes right underneath my character. I posted on the WS forums multiple times but had zero help and no idea what was causing it. I can play wow rift and landmark without this issue. Not really sure what to do I had 34 dominion warrior and bunch of other toons.
I had that exact same thing happen with a normal mouse. For me it was just an old version of deadlock. Or at the very least when I disabled/ripped it out/got it again/re enabled the spinny camera of death stopped happening.

Something just got snarled.

I just noticed this, but PVE? what blasphemy is this? I don't think I have played on a pve server since EQ. Granted I have AA for my pvp needs but it's going to feel so weird seeing a red name and I can't attack it.
haha, I agree with you 100%. Anytime the option is available I would normally go PVP but Wildstar really doesn't have any type of open world PVP worth a damn. All of the PVP is going to be instanced based - that realization alone made me pick up Archage in order to satisfy my PVP needs. Also every time I mentioned going on a PVP server a decent chunk of folks said that it'd be a deal breaker for them whereas those that wanted to PVP seemed to be grudgingly willing to play on a PVE server as long as I promised to dedicate a sizeable amount of time to Warplots.

Yup, definitely going warrior.
The Engineer stuff is literally a non-issue. Most tanks didn't bother using that AMP anyways as it's pretty useless if you never lose agro. I mean, you do realize that is an amp called Enmity and not the enmity of the whole class right?

Ohhhhh that thing.
I've had that in FFXIV a few times but never in WS. (Same mouse used)
There was a really weird thing whenever I used my mouse wheel button to voice chat, my character would do that (spin) until I let the button up. I asked people there did they have a problem and everyone said nope. Went back to TOR and tried same button, no spin when talking.
Honestly, I like the G600 but I really do believe the Naga is better. The only reason I've been using it is because the Naga is smaller for my hands and gives my a cramp when trying to scrunch up to use the buttons but I never once had any issue of any kind with it. Also less slippery with a better grippy surface.

- Warrior - Bulwark
Now has an increased Threat Generation buff during the Tank Stance, up from 25% to 100%.

- Engineer - Enmity
Threat Modifier is now 25%, down from 60%.
Bruiserbot Base
Taunt Duration is now 4 seconds, down from 8.

Going to be a lot of giggles at launch. People wondering why everyone is all of a sudden rolling Warriors and why Engies seem 'different'.

Engies won't be different. They nerfed an AMP no one took. The taunt duration means very little.
I dunno, 30% off the width of electrocute is going to be really annoying, it was hard enough to hit multiple things with it to start with, given how they run all over the place ;p

Let's be honest here though, electrocute was pretty OP. It didn't have the burst other classes had but it would do a significant portion of someone's health bar and you could routinely get 3-4 people in the telegraph at a time. The full casting would take about 20% of someone's life off in PVP. If you popped your R you could easily get 3-4 of those on someone. Drop your heal debuff in the middle and it was pretty much over. All it does is ensure you will take some single target finishers in case your opponents know how to dodge. That's okay in my eyes. Halls of the Bloodsworn with electrocute was crazy!

What kind of scale do you want to use?
A scale of one to draegan should work.

31 people on the Google docs - 4 (maybe) Espers. Class is fun, but I guess the immobility makes it take such a huge hit. Trying to decide between Esper and Engineer myself.

okay bros im probably gonna get this. What side is the Alliance of wildstar?
I'm inclined to say Dominion... although they are more like Romans + Big Brother. Exiles are more of a ragtag motley crew. Which is more in the spirit of the Horde to me.
