Hello everybody! Thanks to the free trial period I got in and after one day I decided to subscribe. I have played all the popular MMOs, but I have been focusing lately on sci-fi games and getting away from the fantasy genre. If you want to say hello in game, my main is a Granok warrior named Rocky Mooncrater on the Entity server.
 
I am really enjoying the game, but as a new player with a fresh perspective I have one gripe that I think would make things better. Please remove the level caps for costumes, dyes, mounts and housing. It is ludicrous that I can't use the items I purchased in the deluxe edition until 15 (costume) and 25 (hoverboard). My bank is also filling up with housing items that I can't use yet. I should be able to invest my time in game as I see fit. If I want to have a level 1 character with a great house then I should have that freedom.
 
Anyway, I think Wildstar is a fun game and I hope Carbine will consider my suggestion.

I guess they have it like this so you don't become overwhelmed with all the features at once. I don't know why but everytime I play with someone new in Wildstar they always seem so confused and overwhelmed. 
 
I totally agree about the costumes though. Well, for me it takes just a few hours to get to level 15 but I feel your pain. I just leveled a new toon and was so annoyed I couldn't costume some of my stuff. 
 
And also I guess it makes people excited when they level up and they see they have unlocked some new feature. If they put them at level 1 you won't have anything to unlock and strive for. I mean, there's a good reason to have it like that, but I also agree it is annoying  <_<

			yes, the thing its that you get overwhelmed with all the things at low levels, a lot of my friends that started playing didnt get half the things, and the level req made it learn a steady pace about the game

			And remember to visit a mount vendor where you can "rent" a mount for 24 hours. Its 5 silver and I think you can use it right away. I know I used it as a level 5 or 6 or something:)

			I would be on support of these changes. Personally I don't see how they would create a problem.

The rent-a-mount this I find hilarious.  Put a Granok on that camel mount thingy.  I can't help but giggle through half my quests.  I LOVE IT!  I agree with the OP and then I don't.  If I could have it all, then I would have nothing to look forward to.  However, at the same time...I want it all and now.
 
Costumes are going to suck the life outta me :blink:

I do think that some items should have their level restrictions removed and or lowered. However I do need to clarify that you can start using costume peices at level 7, but dying your gear is 15...which seems odd...
 
This is how I'd tweak things specifically:
Costuming reduced from 7 to 6(On average most people leave the 2nd zone at level 6 so i think this is a better number)
Dyes universally reduced to level 6 to match with costuming requirement(The first time you currently encounter a customization NPC is in the first quest hub after the initial Nexus introduction zone that usually puts you out at 6/7)
Level restrictions on housing Decor reduced to level 14(Makes alt plots easier to do)
Level restrictions on bags removed
Reduce all mounts to level 6(I feel like the renting mount is great for beginners and people who are low on money, but for people with alts they wish to spoil i think just giving them access to the mounts is fine)	
----
			IMO you get to your respective capital cities one zone too late.  Yes, send them there at level 6/7.

While there's a point to some of this (trust me, you don't want to be overloaded), I actually think I wouldn't mind these changes.  On the one hand, you have the costume (which is pretty much useless anyway until you get to a protostar costume guy, so that will probably stay) but the hoverboard isn't really.  Maybe sort of you aren't meant to go through the water at speed, but we do now have mounts very early, so maybe we can back off the hoverboard level requirement now?  It doesn't seem like it would hurt.

Definitely reducing dyes down to when you get costumes is a good idea, and I'd be behind it.
 
I want to look stylish at all levels :D

Also, won't the new Drop 5 Costuming system be available without the Protostar guy? If so, that would remove the need for a level lock to costuming.
 
And the level requirement for bags needs to die in a fire. Personally, one of the reasons I originally quit playing.
