Troy „Aether“ Hewitt forced, erm pinched convinced Lead Client Engineer Jon „Underdog“ Wiesman to answer some questions for us at Wildstar Central.
Wildstar hits 10k Fans!
Congratulations to Carbine Studios! It seems that the crowd anticipating their upcoming MMOPRG Wildstar is growing day by day and has reached 10000 fans on Facebook. As reward they are giving away a nice T-Shirt.
Metal Maw – Lore and Animations
Today we get an update on Metal Maw, a few new animations and the lore behind this boss. If you want to learn how the Eldan bio-engineered Metal Maw then read on!
Villains of Algoroc
Last week Carbine Studios introduced the Zone Algoroc to us and now gives us a closer look at the hostile parties that will oppose our presence on Nexus. Atreid hands us data on the „Deadstar Marauders“, „The Darkspur Cartel“ and „THE CROWE GANG“. Their history, races, latest activities and other intel.
Algoroc has been hit by Loftite fever!
If you paid attention to previous Wildstar Wednesdays you noticed that the only zone we heard about was „The Northern Wilds“. For the Hoverbike screenshots Carbine Studios took us to a new Zone were taken in a new Zone and today we learn its name is Algoroc.
Conducting Wildstar Music
Back when Lineage II was released I recall how the music impressed me. They used a real orchestra to record their score and it had so much atmosphere. Why am I writing about this? Carbine presents a video featuring the recording of the Wildstar orchestral score by Jeff Kurtenacker at the Eastwood Scoring Stage at Warner Bros studio.
Wildstar (Mini-)Bosses!
This weeks Wildstar Wednesday shows 3 different minibosses from the starter area. Frost Giant, Xenobite Queen and the Zones bad-ass ULTRABOT. If you saw the video presentation then you have most likely already seen the Frost Giant and Ultrabot. The Xenobite Queen has been shown in an uncommented video, I’ll see if I can add it 🙂
But lets look at what Atreid has to say.
Northern Wilds Bestiary
Wildstar Wednesday seems to shape up and we seem to get slowly more interesting information about the planet Nexus and his inhabitants. This week Loic „Atreid“ Claveau introduces the Northern Wilds Bestiary. You will learn about Rootbrutes, Girrok and the Skeech.
Bikes ’n Babes!
This weeks Wildstar Wednesday is my favorite one by far. Always since Troy Hewitt announced the existence of the mount in the first Q&A session I visualized a lewd Aurin female stretching out on it and it made me chuckle. „Bikes ’n Babes!1!1!!“
But it is not only that. Apart from Metal Maw this is actually the first real new footage we got since gamescom and I love it, can only hope that we get to see more stuff like this in future updates.
Where are the real Wildstar updates?
If you followed my site you will realize that I stopped posting information about Wildstar during the past months. Don’t get me wrong, I anticipate the game and have high hopes (you can read the posts here) but the information policy and the community managers are driving me nuts.
