According to a post on our forums, stress test invites have been sent out to lucky WildStar fans to help stress test the servers. According to the information users have posted, the stress event will take place from the 14th-16th of February. The test will run 24/7 as well and will give many players their first look at WildStar.

Good luck!

I'm watching a stream right now and although i really looked out for the game, i'm not sure if in the long run i can stand their obvious approach of mixing WoW with SWTOR with Torchlight visually.
Many textures look like they are literally copied 1:1.
I hate WOW myself in general but I really could not give a rats ass how Wildstar looks cartoon or not as long as it plays well and offers something different to me graphics don't really matter,my all time favourite game is Chaos on the Speccy and that had user defined graphics but fabulous game play but to each their own i guess.
Your oppinion
I am looking forward to Wildstar .. and stop already with wow clone comments, same old same old .. turd
they must not like me lol
No bitchers.
Hm im inclined to disagree 100% just because its cartoon y doesn't mean its bad. Actually this is a fresher take on MMO's then we have seen in a very long time and honestly game of thrones style has been beaten to death. And this is a humor game i cant see photo realism and this games humor going hand in hand. And dont worry EQnext is also going to be this and lets face it the cartoon y always out lasts the realistic, why? Because more systems can run it and more people can relate with it.
You will buy anyways.
Me? Doubtful. I still am bitter over the closing of City of Heroes/Villains. Maybe why they keep inviting me to stress test.
Or, in all reality a RNG picks emails, and sends out invites.
They lost me over their poor handling of beta invites which started to annoy me already some month ago.
If they don't want to run through their signups in chronological order but rather give keys to bandwagoneers who applied 3 days ago, they have to live with pissing off a hgue chunk of longtime fans. (Not that NCSOft ever had a problem with pissing off people)
Their page needs a button to recall the beta-singup...i would hammer it on the monitor with my face.
EQN, here i come...
Speaking from an old-timer's (age 50+) viewpoint, cartoony doesn't bother me either. Gameplay is much more important. WS has features that other games left out for one reason or other such as Housing (Asheron's Call had this and I loved it). WS's take on classes/roles is a new twist as well.
No invite here either but really wasn't expecting one, if it happens it happens.
I'm following the game and development and hoping it's something that will satisfy my interests for awhile.
So you want another generic fantasy with less soul than a pair of $10 sneakers. That's fine. There's plenty of them out there. So many most of us are sick of them and want a different setting.
I don't understand. Do you work there or something? Where are you getting information about the handling of beta invites? Or are you basing this "poor handling" on nothing but hearsay.
How do you know that you are at the top of the list chronologically? Or even near it? For all you know 1 million people signed up before you. I'm willing to bet there aren't that many beta invites out there. Even if you signed up the day they started accepting applications you don't know how many people got their app in before you.
Don't let your jealousy of others who got beta invites deter you from playing a game if you think it's something you will enjoy.
Just to question the philosophy. Army of Socrates.
I agree with you Dogblaster. Everything to these people are wow clones....uggghhh. Wildstar looks like a blast to me and that is the game I am looking forward to this year. Lets give it a go!
You seem to have missed the many recent posting of people who stated that they've gotten a key after they have signed up somewhen around last week and such. One even got a key the next day after he applied, others got several keys per invite or get invited over and over again... then there are people incl. me who signed-up years ago already and got nothing.
Hence my conclusion that they throw around keys in random order which some people do not agree with. I think from the perspective of someone who is a fan of the game since it was announced that is understandable.
