OK.  so before i start.. Haii WhiteKnights!
 
So quick background, I've been playing MMO's since the grind-fest that was Helbreath (1999) #Hardcore. I've Lead a top 100 guild in Guild wars back in the day, played wow, aoc, Aion, SWTOR,Rift, APB, Eve Online. Guildwars 2, STO, ESO etc..
 
Few other points worth making
I'm Married, Work full time and yes i have a life....
I'm not an MMO Hopper.. in the above list i often played multiple at once.
I'm Australian
Sure you can have my stuff.... 
i wont be going to any other mmos at this stage.. nothing else tickles my fancy.
i play games to have fun.. yes F.U.N
i think this is my 3rd post?  Long time reader/ Lurker...
 
So Carbine, yes I've decided to un-sub from Wildstar. I thought seeing you haven't had the time to implement an exit poll, I understand you have been busy fixed a lot of bugs, mistakes, damage, community hatred and working very hard in general on the paid Bet testing version of the game. so i thought id post here for your benefit and endure the flame-wars and the and the bashing from the Self blinded by their oh so shiny armour.. ITS SO WHITE!
 
i know.. don't think me, i'm just kind by nature.
 
I do want to thank you for letting my Buy the Deluxe edition of the game to help you Pre Paid beta test the game.. was epic, i enjoyed it and spent much of my spare time during that period, immersing my self in your beautifully crafted world, i frolicked in the zones up to lvl cap at the time. reporting bugs etc.. it was marvelous.  I understand thought there must have been quite a few because a lot of them i reported still are not fixed.. its cool i understand.
 
i convinced many friends to purchase Wildstar and well i don't know why but they stopped playing...  it confuses me.  maybe you will throw me some commission for helping you make those sales?
 
 
in all seriousness id like to list what i enjoyed and what i didn't, and just a simple conclusion as to why I've un-subbed and wont be back after it expires on 3rd of September. (all subjective, my own opinions, thoughts and feelings..   in before where is your evidence!)
 
PROs:
Fantastic Combat
Good Story
Great Artwork
Fantastic Music
CONs:
 
Lag
Low Performance optimization
Bugs... lots of bugs
Bad PVP design
Rep grinds. i refuse to be forced to grind rep through ridiculous daily quests. If i wanted to do dailies id go play wow MOP.
Hemorrhaging Players, faster than a Man with a Gunshot to both kidneys.
Stupid Attunement
Boring Quests
Nothing to do once 50, apart from Rep-Grinds.. Woooo Rep-grinds  /wrists
No Aussie Server
Downtime 2 - 3 times a week during Aussie prime time..  You guys ROCK!
Tony Rey Annoys me.
Not Enough Communication
Lack of customer service... well non existent customer service..
Itemization and Dungeon rewards..  Awesome drop from that Dungeon.. oh wait that quest drop i got 3 levels ago is still better....
Lack of Vision for the game...... #harcore.
 
 
Conclusion:
 
Game had great concepts. Great initial design..  but Cluster *cupcake*ed by poor implementation, Poor Q&A (Fix 1 bug, create 7 more)  Class Devs that don't play their classes... i mean their is no reason you shouldn't have a lead for each class.  i mean sure the devs are listening.. to what.. themselves? the soothing sound of tumbleweeds rolling across the wastelands they call servers? Rick Astley?   cause they sure as shit aren't to the player base.. well whats left of it..
 
You were on a winner.. i was going to give you guys until the 3rd to fix stuff up, but i sat on it and sat on it, and after reading some other posts on the forums today..  i made my decision..  
 
Thank you for allowing me to pay you money to pre-release & Post Release beta test your game.. i had fun.. for the first month.. :D i met some great people and formed a guild! had a blast.. but while the people i met are fantastic.. i just dont feel attached to your game... at all... and probably never will.... but hey who knows! i know i hold out hope that changes.
 
I wish your evident change to F2P all the success.. :ph34r:

			Actually they are going to nerf attunement, so you only need to get bronze for doing the 4 dungeons.	
----
			
.. am awaiting mailing of stuff..
 
 
Good luck.
 
You have the right idea.. don't play the game if you don't find it fun.
 
I'm still having fun, but then again I like walking alts around in the exile starting ship with a parade of talking vegetables behind me. ... for hours.
 
Check back with us in a couple months, maybe this will be the game you wanted it to be then?

its funny. reading this posts reminds me of what Frost said in the last nexus report about how and when they read forum feedback..
 
i guess you fit the criteria :)
 
and its ok if you don't know what i'm talking about.

			Lack of things to do at 50? Hahaha ok so you just don't know what youre doing.  Got it.

			Took me a few days in the daily zones just to max rep, still this requirement looks pretty silly.

Good for you bro. I'm not at that point yet and I've seen some friends already leave and my own wife moving on to another MMO -_-;;
 
Everybody has their own threshold and everyone has their own way to have fun. The people who advocate against critiqing the game just don't understand that. People that complain and post about bugs and what they want only want continued success of the game and to further their own satisfaction and fun, It's not because they "hate" it. If it does get  to that point people will unsub and move on just like you are doing.
 
So cheers and best wishes. I'll ride it out a little longer although I do want changes too.

Its pretty obvious, I don't need to enlighten you.  You just didn't partake in end game at all, so feel as though there is nothing to do.  Reality, not enough touching dailies, I don't have enough time in the week to do all the things I want to do.  I'll have stuff to do for about 400 hours game time, outside of raid, with the current content.  Add on more if I want to make money off this game.

This made me laugh.
 
Have it known, that at least 1 sub was cancelled due to Tony Rey.
 
hahaha
 
 
It was his impersonations that did it right?

{| class="blockquote"
You sir. Like to make yourself feel good.. stroking your Epeen on the interwebs by degrading others...   if you have read.. and understood.. you would realise i detest dailies.. there for.. i will not progress.. 
 
did i spell it out for you easy enough,, or was your hard epeen covering your eyes?
----
			
The lack of things to do is existent. It is the result of people refusing the grind with good reason. It is simply boring "wannebe" content.
 
I am really lucky, that after one night of raiding I am done for the week... no ugly daily quests nor anything else (despite having some fun with guildmates in dungeons)... I LIKE!	
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
So don't do dailies.  Still lots to do.
 
You just feel as though there is nothing for you to do end game, since you chose not to do end game.  That is not the designers fault for providing lack of content, but the users fault for refusing to partake.  
 
Choices are yours at the end of the day.  But when there actually is alot to do end game, and you choose not to do it, the faults on you big guy.

It's nice when people take time to leave reason as to why they are quitting. While I don't think these should be on general discussion, There should definitely be a player feedback forum for this kind of stuff specifically.
While I understand a lot of your points - I can't agree with everything you've brought up.
Changes are being made, and the next drop is likely to fix many issues,while yes, bring up many more as usual but that's a process that is to be expected when taking risks to make things better. No developer wants to create a steaming heap of shit and I am sure these developers are no exception here. Clearly the game was released too early or their closed beta was not wide enough for them to get enough testing. This is a game which will likely prosper but moreso a year from now when everyone comes back to the fixed version. Hopefully Carbine will reward it's playerbase that stick through during that year.
 
As far as things go, I do not understand what you mean by 'nothing to do at 50' and I am sure through my post you can tell I am not taking any jabs at you .I personally found quite a few things to keep me busy ( that are still keeping me busy.) A few examples:
Finished up my Tank gear via adventures before they messed up the system.
Nearly completed my DPS BiS gear now and have been getting dungeons done. 3/4 silver which is fun. The recent post regarding the atunement fix is welcomed as at least it will not affect the gameplay for those of us that like to challenge ourselves for silver but will at least offer the capability to finish atunement now. 
I've helped my guildies gear up and Silver and that was quite fun too. they're well geared and we're getting through content well now.
I upped my crafting but the 'daily eldan datapiece' sucks as I have had bad rng and the past 5 days I have only received 1 piece each day :(. But still, i'm getting there ! 
finished up all the quests and that has taken quite some time but was fun.Got so many titles out of it - but it would be nice if they rewarded us with costume pieces or a mount or something,haha.
completed all the path content, just to say I did it.
I started housing late. And I am only just now starting to have fun with it - but in a way it's better as I have more scope as to what I can create now that I have seen so many wonderful houses in the housing forum section and their cool ideas.
Tried roleplaying,and liked it - but don't find time for it inbetween all the attuning. argh :p
created an alt and playing 2nd time around is more rewarding now that I have a better understanding of how to play the game.
There are quite a few things to do. I can't say I have loved everything about Wildstar - It is not without it's problems... so many glaring problems..but I do hope you don't give everyone such a bad impression on the game.It's not as bad as we like to make it out to be on the forums - Most of the time I feel the biggest issue with Wildstar is more the difference in population among servers. Playing on an EU-RP serve (lightspire) I found a lot of nice people and got a good experience out of it. I can't say I didn't have days where I was at the brink of quitting,too! It took me 2 weeks to take down KV. Slavemaster Drokk really is a *cupcake* to take down :p. 
But now that it has been done, I find it a lot easier to re-do and my guild has progressed so quickly this past week!
I do hope you find happiness in life - Looks like you're progressing to a point that you can no longer handle Gaming in general. Take care and thanks for being part of the community! 
*Raises Great WhiteKnight shield above you*
I'll hold them back. Run!

Its the only thing I wanted to comment on, as you are entitled to your opinions.
 
See, you didn't create this post to leave constructive feedback.  You came looking for a fight.  I could pick apart all your points, but at the end of the day, there's no point.  You're not here to listen to logic or reason, you're here because you got a chip on your shoulder and feel sleighted because you don't like what this game has to offer.
 
Don't let the door hit you on the way out.  Cheers.

We're sorry to see you go and wish you the best of luck with your future gaming adventures. That said, because threads like this never go well, I'm going to lock this one now.
 
Thanks,Team WildStar
