WILDSTAR 2 PART SECURITY FULL
The planet Nexus is full of crevices, crannies, mines and mountains that can be traversed, delved and scaled. Wildstar caters to the explorers among us (and not just those who choose it as a Path). Unfortunately for the WoW crowd, Wildstar has been designed from the ground up to accommodate a massive level of player-modification, so I don’t expect to see options like this in WoW any time soon, if ever. Other things that can be customised include player housing – to a much greater extent than our Garrisons will be, by the look of things – and mounts. I can only imagine the amount of coding and art that went in to make sure all of the game’s armour fits onto all the different races and body shapes – as mentioned at the game’s panel at PAX East, it was absolutely a non-trivial amount of work. The most stand-out option, to me, was the different body models: a telekinetic Esper doesn’t have to look the same as a beefy Warrior.
WILDSTAR 2 PART SECURITY SKIN
Players can change the standard options like hair, skin tone and facial features, but also things like eye height, eye colour and chin shape.
WILDSTAR 2 PART SECURITY UPDATE
These are receiving a much-needed update in Warlords of Draenor, but still won’t approach the level of customisation that Wildstar provides, which is more like Skyrim or Mass Effect. Character customisationĪs WoW has aged, it has received criticism for its character models. Having choices like these would help to break up the monotony of levelling through Hellfire for the umpteenth time (especially for those who don’t have the money to burn on boosts). There are a few who level through professions (Settler), but exploration and lore-nerding aren’t rewarded, or really supported, in any great way. In contrast, everyone in WoW really levels the same way: questing, dungeons or PvP – all of which would fall under the Soldier path. The Path system is tied in to how a player likes to play. Different Paths can approach a situation in different ways – for instance, a Scientist might find a sparking wire to shock a group of enemies, while an Explorer could climb a ridge and place a beacon to call in sniper support. There are all sorts of ways to get Path experience and as the Path is levelled, players gain access to different rewards, including new abilities – for instance, Settlers can make a portal to their house, while Scientists can summon their group (RIP Have Group, Will Travel). Scientists are lore buffs and Settlers can build structures (buff stations, hospitals, quest givers, etc) to help people. If you’re all about the killing, go Soldier if you enjoy finding hidden areas, go Explorer. In fact, it is more about how you like to play the game – Carbine promises to provide plenty of content based around your Path. Players pick a Path – Settler, Solder, Scientist or Explorer – on character creation, so unlike PotT it is not a max-level only feature. While PotT was cancelled, Wildstar has a similar system – although unrelated to character power – called Paths. It was a way to increase character power through regular activities, like questing, PvP and professions, and to make you different from Mage #30,463. Path of the Titans (PotT) was a system of character progression that was originally going to be part of the Cataclysm expansion. Side-note: Since my last article on Wildstar, I took part in the Easter open beta weekend.
Wildstar has other positives that weren’t covered last time, but I’ve also included the game’s negative aspects – some of which would be very familiar to a vanilla WoW player. While the game includes a lot of MMO staples – group quests, levels, dungeons and raids – it takes a new tack in its implementation. In my last article, I asked what World of Warcraft can learn from its newest rival – Carbine’s upcoming sci-fi MMO, Wildstar.
