I love it! JUST PICKED UP THE GAME THIS PAST SUNDAY BECAUSE I GOT SICK OF WAITING IN QUE TO log in to ARCHEAGE AND WOUND UP LOVING THE GAME. THE COMBAT IS THE BEST I'VE EXPERIENCED IN ANY MMO, AND I'VE PLAYED THEM ALL.
 
I CAN DODGE, I CAN SPRINT, I CAN DOUBLE JUMP AND I HAVE TO ACTUALLY AIM MY ATTACKS WITHOUT BEING ROOTED WHILE THE ANIMATIONS play out, it's awzome. The world is Colorful and vibrant and it takes me back to my nintendo days. 
 
I know from what I've read that the devs have their hands full with fixing bugs and stuff like that but there is one thing missing for me so far that other players might say it's not that important but I want the option to change my characters appearence. In a game like this where you spend hours and hours playing, the way your character looks is very important. I never understood why some games give you such a detailed character creater but you can only use it once unless you create a whole new character. I know you guys have alot on your plate but please implement something that lets me change my character appearence or gender so I'm always happy with how my character looks

Yeah, the combat has spoiled me...  I have a problem where it's difficult to play any other MMO now.  About your characters appearance, yeah you can't change the default once you've created.  No barbershop like some other games.  However you CAN create diffirent costumes for your characters!  Keep the gear that gives you the best stats, but set up costumes to provide you different looks.  You unlock more and more costume slots as you level (at 50 I think there's 8?  I'm only using three so I don't really recall the total).  I know it's not REALLY what you're asking for but it is a nice feature and does allow you to customize yourself to a point.  To manage your costumes you need to find the NPC with what looks like a drop of dye icon above their head.
 
There are some very frustrating things about the game that's for sure.  Lots that can be fixed and improved.  The things Carbine's been outlaying over the past few weeks are all very positive changes.  Hopefully Drop 3 will address a lot of the major stuff and we can get back to positivity on the forums  :D
 
Best piece of advice I have for you as a new player is FIND A GOOD GUILD!  One that's got people playing and that will answer questions for you.  If you happen to be on the Dominion side and on Evindra (or want to transfer there  :lol: ) look me up, or anyone in the guild Ansible.  We'd all be more than happy to help you out and answer questions.

			The combat of Wildstar is my favorite thing. I've been playing Archeage because I've gotten bored with Wildstar and I keep trying to dodge and double jump. It's frustrating having very little movement.
