The WildStar Team is getting ready as the third round of closed beta testing approaches. One of the big new features in this round of testing will be the ability to engage in PvP combat outside of Battlegrounds, Arenas, and Warplots.
The development team has released the patch notes for this round of beta, following the pattern set when the first round of patch notes was leaked by an unknown source. Continue reading to see all of the patch notes from this round of beta testing. Continue reading
It’s Wednesday and that means it’s time for some new WildStar news. This week we get a look at the patch notes for the upcoming round beta testing. Invites for this round of testing should be going out this week, so if you have signed up to participate in the beta keep an eye on your inbox to see if you are one of the lucky few who get invited in.
During the last round of beta testing the patch notes were leaked almost immediately, hence the reason the developers went ahead and just gave the patch notes to everyone up front. Seems like they figured that if players are going to get a hold of the information anyway it might as well come from the source. Keep in mind that if you decide to look through the notes you may stumble across a spoiler or two, so read the notes at your own risk.

A few days ago Carbine sent the first batch of beta invites for Wildstar. At this stage beta invites will only come from the WildStar team, which means no external entity is in possession of a key, nor can they offer or sell it to you. Participation in the WildStar beta is free, but don’t forget that you are under the NDA – Non-Disclosure Agreement, so keep everything about the game to yourself and the beta forums. The first round of beta invites is based on people’s computers. Subsequent rounds will focus on inviting loyal fans.
Unfortunately, some people that got into the beta were not appreciative enough of being the privileged ones to get in first into the world of Wildstar. They decided to break the NDA and leak patch notes from the beta. This can be very harmful to game development (at this stage a lot of things are not meant for the general public) and hurts future beta invites. Fansites and the general press decided to not report on those patch notes and as a thank you Carbine decided to do a very cool thing. They “leaked” the patch notes officially on their website so that everyone can discuss them in open.
