So waited months for f2p only for this.... clusterfu... clusterfu... clusterpudge
 
The damage is done, the cat does not go back into the bag, so first of all please fix this shit!After that most of returning and new players are already jaded after getting their hopes up only to be dashed, but they are also whores.
 
Give some free shit away i.e. free mount, 1 week of premium service, something.

			They may end up doing something like this.  It was done in the past with a little pet for an inconvenience.  it is not unheard of.	
----
			they gave you free....  no sub.  what you thing you deserve something for being alive?	
----
			They can dish out omnibits, or boom boxes. equivalent of throwing a bone i guess. it would be something at least.	
----
			
It would show that they care about player experience
 
Words are good
but
actions speak louder	
----
			
Those would be cool, but it is going to be hard to convince my friends to come back to a game with things they don't understand because they were not even able to create a character
If they gave a double xp weekend or everyone gets prem service weekend they would understand that

An entire game that is unplayable. Hah!
 
And let me remind you why this game had to go F2P - Because it was down-down-down on subscribers because of the issues the game had before it's "Re-Launch". And of course the toxic community dominated by sycophants who would rather just troll a player that had a problem instead of supporting him so his problem therefore the games problem would be fixed.
 
This could be a fresh start for this game that might help it rise from where it is now, so please, do me, the rest of the people and the game a favor and shut the *cupcake*up. A couple of boxes as a "compensation" for this tragic re-launch would not be such a huge effort from the devs so you don't need to form a crusade to save them from the respective effort.
----
			How awful of them to inconvenience you while they're trying to give you access to a free game. You are due reparations. 	
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
Judging by the nature and posts of all the new players flaming and complaining, I'm not sure if I'm liking the "new" community either. Both Exile and Dom side had their fair share of idiots trolling, just like every other darned mmo out there, be it moba, or mmofps/rpg/whatever. There are plenty of nice players and guilds already in the game willing to take on nice new members.
----
			Anyone complaining about this launch, has nevery tried to play a blizzard game at launch. This is nothing compared to some of the launches ive been through.	
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
The game isn't working, people complain. That's true for every game out there. I honestly don't care if you like it or not. The fact is people are giving this game a chance it needs badly when they could be flocking to other F2P games out there with less issues. So please, dear white knights, sheathe your swords at least for tonight and let people vent their frustration.

it is a fresh start? nothing goes flawlessly ever.. not ever.
 
all you and the OP are doing is whining and throwing a fit becuz you cant do something now even tho you know for a fact they are wrking as hard as they can to get it running smoothly.. its all about you, that is selfish and toxic thinking.. im however just telling you how it is. your attitude and others like you are the issue, they are not doing this to spite you. trust me the world does not revolve around you.
 
that aside and to wrap this up.. the game is free they do not owe you anything at all. and if u subbed read the EULA.

The technical term is "cluster*cupcake*".
 
Knowing Carbine's track record, I would be surprised if they didn't do SOMETHING. That said... perfect time to crack open a beer, grab a pizza and just wait for the dust to settle. 	
----
			
Just a horrible embarrassment for carbine and NCsoft.
 
The exact same thing happened at launch, and it now happens again. Its not like they could have somehow predicted this right? Oh wait...
 
This is just a joke. And i fear that the state of the game will quickly show that and we will slide back to the old player numbers relatively fast. People give mmos one shot. Especially f2p ones get quite a brutal treatment, and for the majority of players that tried it at this launch? I doubt a lot will be persistent enough to keep trying to play a game that was so broken at launch. The very launch that already went trough all this once, and had a beta test going for a while. 	
----
			
I want a furry chua strip club added to the game to hang out in.
 
and i get buffs for watching dancing like in the cantina on the star wars mmos

I won't deny that they already have done plenty with making the game F2P and they don't owe us anything, and you guys can hug that close as the game flounders because of little interest.
 
Good intentions don't pay the bills, subscribers do and this launch has cost a lot of them
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
while i agree this may have put some ppl off of the game, for better or worse (il leave my opinion out of that one).. this doomsayer approach you are taking is irrational  and is doing more harm then good if you are truly looking out for the best interest of WS and want it to succeed, i would also like to state i wholeheartedly understand your frustration, i am in your position aswell but the deference is that im understanding and patient and that is not a jab at you i get ppl are different.. just step back and calm down a lil.. it'll wrk out :)

So, there are 2 different sides to this idea/suggestion:
 
On the one hand, Carbine doesn't "owe" us anything. Quite obviously, the game just went FREE to play, so we don't deserve any kind of compensation for not being able to play a game for free.
 
On the other hand, when you drop the ball and have a bad showing in front of your customers, giving out some kind of "stuff" is simply a good PR move, and can earn back some good will that was lost.
 
So yes, I think Carbine should do something. Not because it is owed or deserved, but because they just made a bad first impression to people trying out the game for the first time, and should try to change that impression as soon as they possibly can.	
----
			I'm confused as to why free to play players think they are owed something? Do something else with your time and patiently wait for this to get better.	
----
			I had a 3 month reocurring sub. Just cancelled it, way too much downtime for a game that went live once before.

I would see how things run thru the weekend, before giving stuff away.
 
If things start running smoothly, *most* people tend to forget about a few early struggles.

Yep. Just up and admit you people don't care about the game. You will stop being ridiculed.
 
No, you don't. If your sitting on your butt waiting for F2P because you don't wanna pay a sub, then you don't care for it.
 
THE ONLY EXCEPTIONS to that rule are those who wanted to but can't even afford to pay a sub.
 
You people...

{| class="blockquote"
Wherever you came from, feel free to return, there you go a free trip.
 
The fact that you "waited" for F2P is a fairly clear indication you didn't care about he game to begin with, at least not enough to support it, so why exactly should they give you a free game and then support you with things they need to sell?
 
Welfare line is that way >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

As far as your confusion about how some people act, welcome to Earth and/or the internet. As far as you telling others to "do something else with their time", the fact that you are spending your time posting on a video game message board doesn't give much weight to your own advice.

Look here people. This is why Wildstar failed in the first place. Because of guys like these, who poisoned the community with their venom. This type of person is so deluded that he thinks NCsoft was doing us a favor by letting us play this game, back when we were paying for it. So anyone who complained got stoned like a witch in the dark ages. 
 
Please understand that while these people are vocal they do not represent the entirety of the Wildstar community, just it's dark side. In fact this person isn't smart enough to understand that F2P does not mean people won't be buying. He thinks it's welfare.
 
My advice to you is to give this game a chance, just for the time being. I'm sure the devs will give us something to make up for the problematic launch, cause after all, people decided to devote their time to this game as opposed to another game or another activity. Therefore I suspect you'll see a token of their appreciation for your patience. So don't let poisonous members of the community bring you down. Wait, be patient and once the dust settles give this game a proper try. You might be surprised. I hope I will be.
 
And if you see any more deluded, malicious players such as the one I quoted, just point and laugh cause, my dear F2P players, you are here because of them, because they destroyed the community while this game was still young cause they couldn't accept any words that criticized the game and just flooded every criticism post with their venom and malice effectively killing the forum community which caused even more damage to the subscription numbers, enough them to take up the F2P style. So point and laugh.
----
			I like how this guy opened up. He waited for the game to be F2P and right now he can't play so it he demands compisation. Kind of like going to a restaurant for a free steak, they cooked it well done and you demand a bottle of chardonnay

Yeah i get sick of vet players coming down on the f2p players. The game had no support from them that's why it went f2p. If they give players something for down time maybe some of those f2p players would become sub.players. Vet players need to come down from their mountain.

Honestly, your personal attack of the person you just quoted is not much better than his post was in the first place. If someone makes a post you think is rude or damaging to the community, rather than being rude in return by throwing insults their way and talking about what a vile evil person they are, how about you simply say that their post does NOT represent everyone, and you hope people will stick around even if they had a bad first impression?

The devs do not need to compensate for anything. It's LAUNCH DAY. There is no amount of preparation that can be done to prevent over population. Stop demanding everything under the sun just because there's a few hours of laggyness. It's people like you that end up ruining games like Wildstar. Take your entitlement elsewhere.
----
			
I think the people demanding compensation are being unreasonable. The issues have been relatively minor given the number of people they suddenly had to cope with.
 
At most we've all lost a day of playtime -if- we paid for it. Personally I won't lose any sleep over having one day knocked off my subscription time. Not when I could still play inbetween maintenance without being overly impeded by the problems Carbine was dealing with.

			I, right now.
