Hello! No this isnt an "i quit" post but it IS a "why im not playing right NOW" post. No i dont want attention doing this for the CMs/devs yadda yadda yadda go away white knights shoo shoo!
 
 Ok so i took a break shortly after release to let bugs clear up and not stain my palette so to speak. Last week, (or shortly before) i came back YAY! made a post and everything! Alright im thinking 3 months in, gave some time to marinate lets bite into this crispy chicken!
 
Except the chicken wasnt done and now i feel sick. Kidding! But really the same bugs were still there. My engineers bot is still challenged by the smallest rock, and he must think im stronger than i am coz he LOVES to attack anything even when on assist.
  My datachron? you know where i get path quests? pops up BEHIND my quest tracker. So , to read it (ANYTIME so i do this on average of every 10 minutes, or well i did, im not playing for a while) i have to UNTRACK all my main quests, read path quest info, then put main quests back on screen. No im not using addons, not one, never have.
 
Thats just within 20 minutes of play this session after coming back. Ok OK minor problems you say , go botless! DL addons to fix your shit!
Definitly things i can do. But i shouldnt HAVE to use work arounds to play a game, there is too much competition i can just go to and have things work.
 
So why type all this up? Well, i am coming back , in another 3 weeks or so, but how many people give it another shot and find the same thing that drove them out in the first place and BAM thats it, uninstal never look aga...hey WoD in 2 months who cares!
 
I see hope, pushing back drop 3 hopefully to get some of  this stuff in, but like my parents always told me, walk before you run W*. Get basic stuff fixed and ill gladly come back and (maybe? for once?) stay here for more than a week without getting frustrated.
 
TL;DR : came back after quitting, same bugs, really like game fix your sh*t before you add more, will come back again when you do

This game honestly needed another few months of beta testing. They had it in beta for so long but it still felt so rushed. 
 
There is so many bugs/exploits still to date, so many poor game design choices, big and small. The game suffered because of it.
 
It needed more technical and soft testing. If the game makes it to 2015 I'm sure we'll see a population increase.
 
For those who aren't aware of a game called marvel heroes, it had a rough launch, basically mimic of wildstar. Large hype, then it launched, and splat, pops gone. Then over time they fixed things, made QoL change, catered to both hardcore and casual players, rewarding both for their playstyle on a level of fairness. Added new levels/difficulty of content of all varieties, and best they bring heroes almost every month consistently, not without bugs, but those to an extent are fixed up quickly. It started escaping its low pop and has even more of a playerbase in a years span. If this game can make it that far, and make the right decisions barring both technical and play-style, it'll succeed enough to cater to its original audience, the hardcore audience and those who enjoy housing/telegraphed mmo in all generality. 
 
The game is great, its just made poor decisions, and again, could've just been solved with longer testing. I'm here for the long run if wildstar is too.

I feel your pain on the bugs - the datachron/quest tracker issues have been particularly vexing to me as well. I just wanted to point out that you don't have to untrack your quests to see your datachron. If you look closely on your quest tracker, you can see that the quests are divided into categories like "World Story", "Zone Story", and "Tasks". Each of these categories has a little "minus" (-) button next to it. Click that, and it collapses that section of the quest tracker. This way you can see and use your datachron. Much easier than untracking and retracking quests.
