Ok so its simple guys, MAKE A WISH LIST OF WHAT YOU WANT TO SEE IN WILDSTAR :D
 
Oh and first and foremost, merry christmas to CARBINE and everyone in NEXUS :D
 
My Christmas wish list.
-----------------------------
 
1. Don't go free to play! (and i'll say this here and now, if this thread turns into a discussion about F2P, pls MODS just lock this thread)
 
2. AN EXPANSION :D ( I know this is completely unrealistic but hey I mean who's wish list is this not on hehehe. Maybe hint at one in late 2015? :)
 
3. A new race to play!
 
4. Dynamic events like RIFT!
 
5. Santa Hats! (Yah i said it) and thankyou so much to CARBINE for even just looking into the possiblity of of getting one from the other thread! That was very cool! Ty so much)!
 
6. Some new mounts! I own all the ones so far I'd love to see some exclusive mounts for RAID clears or achievements etc
 
7. Something like artifact collecting from RIFT! It was so absolutely fun! Before it went fail2play I really enjoyed this aspect of it and the Dynamic overlays (zone invasions etc)
 
8. Pets! Collectable pets in game! I know they are coming but can't wait for the insane pets they can think up in game! I really like that sneezing catterpillar in the DOM starter area lol
-------------------------------------------------
 
What's your guys list of what you want?
 
MERRY XMAS TO ALL YOU GUYS AND CARBINE :D	
----
			
I'd ask for Dominion conquest of Nexus but since that's inevitable anyways.....
 
More mount options would be awesome. :P	
----
			Pets, hobbies, more mounts; both flying (with air battle ships ect) and regular and a pirate hat + outfit is topping my wishlist this year. :)	
----
			
 
Seriously Carbine, I've been asking for months. please?
 	
----
			
What do I want?
 
(In order of how badly I want it)
 
 
 
 
1. Playable music in-game with craftable instruments made by Architects, as well as the ability to compose your own music and play in a "band"
 
2. Some non-combat related content that you can do whenever you burn out, WoW had Pokemon, Mabinogi / LOTRO had music, etc.
 
3. Some real class mechanics, and rotations that aren't so boring (there are many ways to do this).
 
4. Aurin Engineers, Medics and Warriors.
 
5. New dungeons / raids!
 
6. Repeatable, random content, like the Fractals from GW2, or the dungeon system from Mabinogi.
 
7. For the UI lead to help new developers figure out the functionality of the Wildstar API (a document or forum post with descriptions of functions), and a friendlier addon development community.
 
8. Voiced emotes and real voice acting for the characters (the combat sounds and slight emotes we have now are just so... ugh) -- lame jokes, various phrases, etc.
 
9. More lore in the future from questing. The lore is kind of a let-down. : /
 
10. An underwater / ocean themed zone.
 
11. A capitol city for the Exiles that isn't so trashy!
 
12. Coats that aren't split on the leg area.
 
13. Coats with sleeves that are baggy!
 
14. Boots that don't go to the knee (mid-calf, ankle, sandals, etc)
 
15. Fingerless gloves that cover just the hands.
 
16. A fix for female Aurin breath balloons.
 
17. A doctor to fix Aurin scoliosis.
 
 
 
 
I would love dynamic events though, and some kind of collection. Both of those were awesome features in Rift, and I spent so much time doing both. xD Though, another awesome feature from another game I'd love to see is crafting like Mabinogi had -- it was a little mini-game for each profession; if you were a tailor, you had to sew a piece of clothing, and the quality came out better the faster and more accurately you could click the proper points. Things like that! I just want everything in this game to be fun, rather than a chore. The classes could use a bit of work to make them actually interesting to play, the crafting is a bit stale, and the lore is a bit underwhelming. Top that off with a lack of non-combat related content, and it's pretty easy to burn out in this game. Given a bit of time, I think this game has incredible potential, and I can't wait to see this game thriving and booming and bustling. ^^
 
Merry Christmas! (I'm never saying happy holidays, bite me.)

My, oh my. You guys really want A LOT of stuff. :blink:
 
Personally, i just wish for some pets (for my wife), and crafting materials account-wide bank slots (for my alts).
 
The rest of the game is awesomely ok.
 
Hope some of your wish may come true, but not all of them. I've read some pretty dreadful wishes up there. *shivers*
 
Captain, out.
 
 
WAIT, now i get it!
Apparel!
Carbine, give me some *cupcake* apparel! Tshirts, hats, whatever. You make, me give money. Deal?

Smokable items like cigars, cigarettes, pipes, and vaporizers.  That'd be great for RP.
 
I wrote a post a while back about mount mechanics and variety.  I'd like that.
 
Oh, and I'd like a nice polo shirt I can wear with a Wildstar logo.

1. Raid difficulty content with raid-quality rewards for the solo and small group players that make up the overwhelming majority of your playerbase. With actual mechanics instead of "here's a field of red. Enjoy." See your own Creepy Caverns expedition if you've forgotten how to create mechanics that must be learned during combat for solo players. See this thread for the beginnings of an actual discussion of how to do this without gutting raiding; the first 4-5 pages are dominated by the usual back-and-forth sniping that inevitably comes with controversial topics, but there's quite a lot of interesting metrics and ideas thrown around by the end.
 
2. An explicit and clearly defined policy on how exploits are addressed.
3. Improved search tools for your own team to mine server logs and pull out relevant information. It's pretty clear that what they currently have isn't good enough.
4. A PvP lead developer who understands basic concepts of gaming like "fair play is fun and being steamrolled by cheaters isn't."
5. Start having some internal discussions about all the reasons your game has to never ever make an alt, and how to fix them.
6. Implementation of the 12-CREDD limit on stockpiling that your business model says is there. Or, alternatively, removal of the statement that it's there from your business model webpage.
7. Actual appearance customization that includes changes in character appearance and not just gear appearance. Plus the ability to change which slots of a costume do and don't appear on the fly, instead of at a vendor.
8. Veteran shiphands.
9. Dye costs. Fix plz. Also, stop making dyes soulbound and let people buy and sell them. They're not epic lewt, so stop treating them as if they are.

1) Make acquiring leather far less tedious. My outfitter has dozens of eldan data fragments, but is unable to keep up with the volume of leather needed to do work orders for crafting vouchers. Yes there are spots to farm it, but having to spend 60-90 mins farming in a boring circle to get enough leather for one day's work orders is not fun, especially if you have to do it every day!
 
2) We need shoes that are not boots. I have this super pretty dress in one of my costume slots, but no SHOES to wear with it, because they're all boots.
 
3) All classes for all races! And with that, race changes!
 
4) Rent-a-maid.... so I have more time to play ;)

I like all these things, but I'm curious--is there some reason you can't just buy the leather on the CX? I'm not an outfitter, but I can't recall any time in recent history where I went to the CX and thought the cost of leather made it particularly profitable for me to sell it there...

I'm sure I can think of more...

30) Let my Esper use his psyblade.
 
This last one is a big one.  Out of all the classes the Esper is the only one that doesn't actually use it's equipped weapon. It just sort of sits there on our backs only to have an image of it conjured and if only you have that one particular skill set in your abilities bar. Psyblades are just like staffs in WoW.  Boooo!

How about bowler hats instead?

Hello,
 
1. Choose a new subscription plan. Personally I don't mind paying a sub, however I also am not scared of the future and new subscription models. GW2's BTP is my favorite to date and seems to work well and attracts lots of players. I do not care what model Carbine chooses I just want them to make enough money to make more content and most importantly get more players in game.
 
2. More incentive to make alts (I'm an admitted alt-o-holic). The newbie zones are dead zones.
 
3. Expansions are mentioned often. I would love to see expansions that included space travel. Personal ship would blow my mind but they don't even have to go that far just more quest paths that take place on ships and possibly take you to new worlds.
 
4. Someone mentioned a store where you could buy merchandise. I love this idea, I would love to buy a Wildstar mouse pad, coffee mug, t-shirt etc. I think this could be beneficial on many levels. It would be another source of income for Carbine and it would be marketing the game and helping to attract more players.
 
5. Did I mention more players?
 
6. Some in game holiday events would be nice. If they do not want to do Christmas than invent some nexus alien holidays to celebrate over the holidays.
 
Thanks for reading.

I forgot but remembered cause of you guys...
 
one of the biggest things i want in this game is FISHING!
 
fishing in RIFT was amazingly fun!

			Another thing that popped into my head last night, while playing, that I'd like for christmas is for the small minimise icon that was displayed next to each individual quest to be put back. It used to be just click the little minus icon button but now you need to highlight the gear icon and select minimise. Not a huge thing but I was a bit annoyed when I discovered that it was gone when Drop 3 came along. Is there any reason why this was removed in the first place? It was so much better and more convenient than having to choose minimise from a drop down list.

As a totally new player to Wildstar ive gotta say the population seems more than worrying at low level, since last night through the tutorial area & up to level 10 ish so far ive seen 1 other player & that was on the tutorial ship =/
