    Hi all,

    I tried the search thread and nothing came up not sure if I used it correctly or not. I was wondering if anyone has their eye on this after the disappointment of Elder of Scrolls online Stress test.

    Also just to add I am looking for a beta invite if anyone has one they are not using or have a friend invite?

    I had keys but I've given them away to friends already I'm afraid (if I get another I'll bring it here).

    Having played during the Stress Test early last year, I had turned my back on it completely.
    It was a technicolour WoW clone with horrible, boring combat.
    The Winter beta however has really tightened up the combat nicely.

    Sadly it still just plays like any other MMO to me and SWTOR has ruined traditional quest gathering for me forever :)

    They still have plenty of time though :)


    Side-note - Stress test are not for your enjoyment ;)

    This game looks good :). I have been looking forward to it for a very long time. My friend also. It seems to go back the oldschool design of 40 man raiding and difficulty. Plus it looks fun :).

    The thing I like about Wildstar is that they cater to the raiders and have large raids again.

    I couldn't care less about the graphics, aslong as the gameplay is somewhat acceptable. Questing is allways a big PITA and I allways rush trough it as fast as I can to get too max level and start raiding.

    It'll be good for some 3-4 month until the content is cleared and the two or three toons are maxed out.

    As a stress test it was the smoothest I have ever played, I didn’t come across many problems. The biggest one was having to re-load the UI when using the crafting station but no DC's or anything like that. I just didn’t enjoy the game as much as I thought I was going too

    I have heard that they are getting rid of people who are in the beta who do not have a level 32 so that they can start to concentrate on the end game content. Not sure how this is going to affect new beta invites if they are still doing them. I am sooo gutted if they stop the invites 

    I doubt they'll do that I still have my account but don't have anything over level 15. They should be putting premade characters to test higher level stuff.

    Does anyone know if codes are bound to email? My other email for an invite but I got a friend code.

    Not true.

    What youve heard is, that the chars are currently limited to a max-level of 32. LvL50 will become available in the next week or so.

    So after testing three different chars (Esper, Stalker, Medic) up too LvL 10 I can definately say that this game isn't worth buying for me as the combat is pretty boring. You basically spam two abilities (builder + consumer) while avoiding the telegraphs. Also I don't like the freeform-targeting and would've prefered tab-targeting like in WoW, etc.

    But that's down to personal preference. I like the slower more indepth combat instead of the twitchy action style.

    Additionally, the whole healing-system is a mess imho, especially without tab-targeting. And after discussing with highlevel-players on Teamspeak, who have had their fair share of experiences with the Esper/Spellsinger/Medic healing groups in dungeons/raids my worries about the healing-system got confirmed.

    I can see where you are coming from and I like the idea of the healing making it more of a challenge but I can see it being a pain of you don't have the communication with the group

    I would like to try before you buy but for me the way it's looking (without playing it) it shall keep me away from WoW

    But everyone wants a beta invite. I can't do much more really. I do have a spare ESO beta key I won't be using

    I am guttered that I missed out on the keys that where given away earlier :wallbash: :duh: :geek:
