104218-is-it-worth-the-sub

== Content ==
			Hello I know there may be some other threads about this but I wanted an updated answer, I am asking if this game is worth subing too as I have heard not many people play and the servers are pretty empty is this true? 	
----
			It is a good game and worth subbing, but they need to merge some of the servers. >.>	
----
			US / EU?  If you're US, aim for Stormtalon or Evindra for PvE.  For PvP.. I think it's Pergo.  (That might be the big EU PvP.  My apologies if that's the wrong server).  I enjoy it.  I'm on both Storm and Evi, and have good populations.  For EU.. someone want to chime in?	
----
			Could be worth the sub. But definitely worth the price of admission, and then getting CREDD with the gold/plat you make in the game.	
----
			    I haven't really noticed the low population , I still see people playing and doing RP . As for the subscription , I actually do find it worthy but that's just my opinion .	
----
			i dont recommend wildstar to people, i know	
----
			Only way to find out if its worth it for you it to try it out. I personally enjoy the game and dont mind the sub. My friend enjoys the game and does off credd so she does not pay monthly lol.	
----
			yes, definitely more so than other mmos with a stagnant content release plan

			Depends on the faction/server.Even though I'm subbed and playing, I would not recommend this game to anyone without giving them a laundry list of warnings. 	
----
			CREDD is so cheap that on a lot of servers there really is no subscription cost. I bought the game and have never had to pay for a month since. Certain servers have low enough CREDD costs that can be attained by 1-2 hours of farming. Now in some random event that CREDD stops existing?PVE. If you love difficult PVE this game has some of the best MMO PVE I have played in a long while. However difficulty can lead to frustration for people who prefer easier games. This game is also in an early state so some of the boss mechanics are being exploited. (Most exploits recently fixed but some remaining).PVP.Personal opinion here. PVP in MMOs is fun for the playstyle. But has never and never will be balanced or fun for anything other than casual play. It's no different here. PVP has a long way to go. WoW has been out for 10 years and it's PVP still has a long way to go. Fun? Yes! Competitive? Far from it.

			It is 100% worth the sub! I highly recommend it :D

			Worth the sub.  I see plenty of people around wherever I go in lower level areas.

I say it's worth it.
 
Caveats, of course.  Like I would not recommend it to some of my 'older' gamers,..who are used to Lotro/wow,..mouse clicking,..and I know find even TSW's controls challenging.
and then there is the whole 'style'.  If you not into the graphics then you won't like it.
 
Do some researching on youTube on gameplay.

I'm here, I love playing the game, the world, the art, the story,
the endgame, not so much
I would not recommend it to friends
not without a long list of  "it has these issues but"

No.
 
I was looking for a new MMO to burn time on. It was a choice between Wildstar and TESO.
 
I like the style. I like the humor. I like the housing. I don't mind the questing.
 
I hate the combat. It feels like a chore to me.
 
So... if I liked the Combat, I'd be all over this. I'm not so... I'll be moving on once enough time has passed that my wife won't kill me for buying 2 MMOs back to back.	
----
			
It is worth the sub for me.
 
YMMV.
 
I honestly don't know why people think the server is empty.  I think everyone's definition of "empty" is different.
 
I am on Mikeros, which is a "low" server.  Between the Space Port AH and the Housing holograph I nearly always into 10+ people - even when I log in at work.  I consider that a lot.  But another person have posted that Illium is pretty empty because on the same trip he only counted 18 people.
 
What I know is: scorch wing dies on the dot.  Never had problem finding people for Kill Board Mobs.  When I ran through beginning zones to complete the Rare Hunts last week I ran across at least 4-5 people still leveling.  My social circles are still alive.  I have no problem finding people to do dungeons with.
 
Which is plenty for me, but might not be enough for you.

I would say, if you think you would like the game, buy the box, and plan to pay for the sub with CREDD.  I bought the Deluxe Box and I don't consider it a waste as I had an enjoyable month of play with it, but if I had to shell out real cash instead of CREDD for the game I'd be unsubbed now.  Watch a couple of videos or play the free trial, and if you like the combat enough that you think you could get as much play out of it as a solo game, go for it. 
 
Fortunately CREDD is quite affordable for even a Filthy Casual, and honestly, Carbine may actually prefer you do it that way, since they get $20 per month instead of $15 per month -- bonus for them over you subbing! So let a Leet Raider pay for your sub if you think you'll like the game enough to pay the box price.  And if you hunt around a bit you can probably find a 20% off deal on the box as there are a couple of sites that might still be offering that.

Yes. Don't listen to the idiots saying it is dead. It is not dead. There are a few servers that are very low population but that is simply because they opened with too many servers. They did that to appease the cry babies who didn't want to QUE up.
 
Had these idiots had any experience with MMOS they would have known that the amount of servers was perfect and that the population would have balanced out after the 30 days free.	
----
			I am still on the fence about that I love the story and humor but some of the quest are down right irritating either they don't work right or they keep sending you back to where you just came from. I have found out in some area (mostly labs) that the mobs can respawn to quickly as in you kill first mob move to 2nd as you finish off second the first is back up. So as people say try out the 7 day pass and see what you think.	
----
			Long story short, YES, game is really fun :)

It is actually pretty dead, but if you pick a live server you can still have a good time -- so if you do sign on, do a little research and pick a server and, ideally, a Guild, before you roll your character.  That will increase the chances you'll find people to work with while leveling, which is the funnest way to level.

I would recommend this HIGHLY and EXCLUSIVELY over TESO
 
in fact even if I loathed you and wanted you dead, I would never recommend TESO to you
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
The go to example of how not to implement a mega server.
 
Maybe they fixed that now, but when it was first out - you can't even quest together :(

			If this game was worth it, then everyone and their mothers would not have left. Most servers are empty for a reason. Unfortunately, the Carbine Developers had a very limiting and antiquated vision for Wildstar. Chances are you will not like it and I think its wrong to ask this question on the forums because pretty much the only people here are the few fans that remain. 	
----
			It's something to do will WoD...who knows I will most likely play both if I can find myself a guild working on attunements with the intent to raid.	
----
			
In its current state, and with how Carbine handles their updates, I would say it is not worth the subscription.
 
If it were not for CREDD, I would not be playing. I'm just holding out hope that Carbine can turn things around.	
----
			Unless you have 6-8 hours a day to play I wouldnt recommend WS. This game has a huge time sink ceiling. If you love raiding then you better love boring time sinks to get you into them.

is it worth 12-15 bucks a month? Well, in my opinion yes. I spend more than that on a good meal and I get far more enjoyment over the month than I do for that dinner.
 
There are bugs, yes. I have personally raged and exited the game because of some of those bugs. But I got over it. They were minor and overall I had far more fun than frustration. I've run dungeons, adventures and even made my own adventures with my friends. I've spent hours designing and decorating my house, doing challenges for the chance for that one more peice of decor that will make it perfect. I've worked the AH for Dyes and commodities, trading and farming for money or crafting mats. 
 
long story short, there is a LOT of fun stuff to do, and a few issues.
 
 
It's not perfect. But it's definitely worth the sub.	
----
			
If you're not sure about the game. Just grab a 7- day trial key.
 
I'm currently on a trial key. But once it expires I'll be buying the game & 1 month of subscription.
 
As a new player I can't really comment on the majority of the game content yet. But so far I had a blast even with the limits that comes with a trial run.
 
Also I don't understand why so many people are whining about some issues. It's a new game, give it time and it'll sort itself out.	
----
			Yes, it is worth the sub, just a heads up that there are still issues that need to be resolved and more content added.	
----
			
Depends.  Are we talking Subway or Firehouse?
 
It's not worth a Lenny's sub, but honestly nothing is.

^ agreed. Sadly people who troll the forums ACTUALLY like the game but are mad because they can be the best at it without trying.
----
			So worth it.. best MMO since WoW Burning Crusade. It's def worth it since there's also C.R.E.D.D program, it which merges the initial pay to play and also a free to play subscription into one package!	
----
			
depends if you are new to mmo's or not.
 
if you are patient, and have played them at launch before, yeah it is. i waited a couple months to jump in for the initial rush to calm down and m having a good time. there are definately areas that need work, but so far it's fun

Chua can say, game is worth sub.
Yes, has issues. But game is new. Need time for Carbine Humans to fix problems.
But many many fun.	
----
			
It's fun and people are attached to it. Which is why you see so many negative comments: you don't bother sticking around forums to get bashed because you point out flaws if you are not passionate about the game.
 
You will enjoy the leveling, the dungeons are a LOT of fun and so is PvP until you drop in the 30-49 and 50 brackets.
 
At 50 it's not a game worth playing if you are casual as you will get nowhere. Apparently this is a design decision. Good luck with that Carbine.	
----
			1-49 is a blast and the reviews you can find all over the net from open Beta do a great job of relating that. The current level 50 end game is pretty rough right now and we're currently going through some big swings in the balancing. So I guess it really depends on what kind of player you are and how patient you are as to whether or not the game is worth funding.	
----
			People that have to ask really want the game to be F2P and that's not going to happen. Because the game has CREDD. People take a couple of days to farm/craft and dailies can make enough CREDD to pay the next months sub.	
----
			
That's where the whole irony is: make a game for hardcore player, introduce CREDD system.
 
Hardcore players play hardcore so don't need to pay. So essentially your target audience gets the game for free once the box has been paid.
 
Casual players are there to be farmed by hardcore players.
 
This is actually a game you are punished to financially support!	
----
			Personally I wouldn't say it is worth a sub in its current state. However you can always use CREDD to essentially play for free while some other poor sod pays the $20 for 6 plat.	
----
			Don't spend your money on this game just buy CREDD as soon as u can, it is good but it lacks content
