Excellent news! I was looking for a way to drag some other people into Wildstar. Thing is I'm out of trial codes so this couldn't have come at a better time.
 
Thank you. Playing games with friends is always better.

Well I finally got the trial downloaded and tried a Spellslinger...  I have to say I'm enjoying the game although I'm only at lvl 7 or so at the moment....
 
Got off the Gamblers Den and onto the 1st area of Nexus, cleared that away and onto the the 2nd Nexus zone..   Can someone tell me when I'll come across crafting, gathering and housing please?  Looking forward to getting into those...
 
If they are enjoyable as well I can see a purchase coming up..

Professions show up about halfway through the third zone (if you're Exile, this will be Celestion or Algoroc).  That will be gathering and crafting.  Housing you'll get at level 14; it's in the capital city (in your case, Thayd).  I'm not sure what's available there to a trial account.  I think a trial account is good for the first tier of professions (where you'll need to purchase the game to advance into tier 2)
 
Hope to see you in game!  It's worth the purchase, believe me! :)

Ah yes Celestion - Thats where I got to last night before I had to log...
 
Thanks for the reply...

			With the trial for returning players, am I able to play on my level 50? Also am I able to buy CREDD in game?

{| class="blockquote"
You are able to play on your level 50.  I do know that.  I do not know if you have access to the CREDD market, though you can definitely activate one if you had one in your bank already.  But you can absolutely play your 50.  Also, I think you're free from a lot of the other restrictions.  We've had a few show up in our guild again, and they seemed to be just fine in the guild (they didn't get kicked out or anything because they weren't allowed to be guilded).
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
From the knowledge database article linked in the OP: "...however, adding a free trial to an existing Standard or Deluxe WildStar account that has NO remaining (Lapsed)  game time will add 10-days of unrestricted play!"
 
I think based on this that you'll be able to purchase CREDD and keep playing without any restrictions.
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
No problem!  If you have a question, just ask.  I think the best thing we can do, as a community, is to be helpful.
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
Well I bought the game today so now have a standard account..
 
See you peeps in game...

So I told my friends, and now I'm in the very real problem where EVERY ONE OF THEM is saying "Yeah I'll switch if everyone switches."
>:T
*flails*
 
Need a sale so they can impulse buy or something.

Hello everyone, I'm interested in coming back to Wild Star for this 10 day trail, I own the game but have not downloaded it on my new PC. I played @ release got to 50 and then bought 1 CREDD. 
 
* I simply go to my accounts page and click the [start free trail] button?
* Does the 10 days start at the time I click the button or when I get it installed and log in for the first time?
 
 
thanks for your help!

Pretty sure it's just click the button, but having never done it I can't say definitively.
 
It starts when you click the button.  You can install & patch prior to clicking it.
----
			i'll be trying out wildstar again the reason i quit is because the game kept crashing for me and all my friends during released and we got frustrated hopefully you guys fixed that	
----
			
Same as the guy above. It was the technical problems that made me leave. For me it was poor optimization and gfx problems.
I picked up the trial on Tuesday, log in and lo - the same flickering textures as year ago. I chuckled. Same low performance independent of graphical settings. Nothing changed in a year, amazing.
Friends are not interested in picking up the trial as they have already many other online games to attend to, and grindy, complicated WildStar doesn't match the profile. (?)
What do?

What do?
Give more information about your system and windows configuration.
That crashing is related to something on your system not playing nice

Hello there, little friend.
There is a thread we (the guys with AMD video cards) posted in: https://forums.wildstar-online.com/forums/index.php?/topic/41691-lightning-flickering-issues-amd-radeon-hd-7970m-video-inside/
It has youtube videos to show what the problem looks like. The fact is Wild* is the only single game that has such problems. Similar games that came out in the following year all run smooth and with no problems. There were several ATI driver updates and CRB and them couldn't work this out?
I made have overreacted - only because I care for WildStar and the fact that a year later the problem still persists is bothering me.
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
For what it's worth, I am using an AMD video card (Radeon HD 5700 Series) and have not had any problems. Definitely no flickering like described/shown in the thread you linked.
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
Same goes for my wife's Radeon HD4950. So I guess it's a subset of "HD7xxx  m" users, and m stands for mobile.
Too small subset to give a cupcake, I reckon :'(
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
Or simply behaving different due...."experimenting" from the manufacturer.
Wouldn't be the first time.
But yes, if this affects only one specific subset, it might even be more of a driver related issues as well, and not directly something Carbine can resolve.
If this was truly a coding issue then a way larger spectrum would have been affected.
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
No, little friend.
As were stated by the people affected, WildStar is the only game that flickers.
Why does every other developer handle textures properly?
IIRC it was mentioned in the optimization thread that if CRB wouldn't change the coding, they and AMD engineers could work out a solution together.
I remember somebody pointing to a bug report or something similar on an AMD site that stated their engineers would need some input from CRB.
No point in beating a dead horse. The only thing anyone can do is me change my computer. But everything (else) works good on it.
 
I won't change my computer just because of 1 game and Carbine won't fix their engine because of an undisclosed amount of people with the bug.
No, I won't be playing when Wild* changes their business model.
Yes, I would subscribe right away if this bug was fixed.
 
So I guess this is good-bye. I'm happy you can enjoy W* because it's a good damn game. Cheers!

I would like to ask a question about the 10 days trial.
In the near future the game will go f2p we know that much.
Now i got a 10 day trial and i wonder if that trial account will be promoted to f2p means will I be able to level up a char or two now and be like lvl 20 once the f2p starts?
Or will f2p char be deleted or anything like that?	
----
			
Soooo I'm here to see if you guys can help me too; just today I bought the standard edition of the game, and when I went to redeem the code, I accidentaly clicked the "start trial account" button, and now I've got 10 free trial days+the standard edition I just bought; could there be a way to, somehow, eliminate this 10 free days so I can begin with the standard edition?  
I already submitted a ticket, but seeing how this things could take time, I'd like to see if anyone here knows anything?
 
Thank you so much :)

			The link in the OP no longer works.  It took me several hours to figure out why my tradeskill wasn't leveling and part of that time was because the information that it is capped with the trial is not easily available.  I had to go to a news site to get the info that should have been in this post.
