That's it, the recently updated WildStar test server is finally available to all subscribed players! For those who are not, it will happen a bit later.
A lot of things are already to be seen, first of all here is a video to see live full of finds such:
- new character creation
- in-game shop
- new sky and floor in housing
- new frames
- new pets
- new costumes
- new FABKit
- new fortune teller feature
- possibility to lock your camera on the slider
Character creation
As announced, character creation has undergone a complete overhaul. Now, we will navigate through a succession of screens which are:
- Choice of tutorial degree (never played MMORPGs, already played MMORPGs but not WildStar, already played WildStar)
- Choice of race / faction / sex, we see all the races and we have additional information for each
- Class choice with presentation videos for each
- Choice of vocation with also explanatory videos
- Creating the appearance of the character
- Summary of all previous information with possibility to change on this screen
Login rewards
Now, by logging in every day, we will receive rewards! It could be bags of not very attractive consumables like much cooler stuff, especially every 10 days, such as decorations, titles, even new skies and grounds for your accommodation area!
In-game store
The in-game store is available in alpha version, many things are missing, such as item descriptions. However, you can browse and even buy items thanks to the 4000 PTR NCoins offered, the real money currency of the store.
I bought 3 things there: the new skies and floors for the accommodation, and the new mount! The sky turns your shelter into an asteroid that rushes towards Nexus, you will see debris all around you and you will be shaken, beware, it can make you sick!
Fortune teller
Hang in there, here's a brand new feature that's completely crossed out: the Fortune Teller! Indeed, it seems that a lopp has special gifts, and in exchange for a coupon that can be bought in the shop (maybe it can also be recovered otherwise?), You will receive 3 rewards. By applying a coupon, you will advance a bar on the right side, and when filled, you will have a rare reward! For my part, in special items received, I will note:
- un familier Mini Maw
- decorations of humanoid guards of the Exiles and the Dominion
- a great FabKit Lopp
- a new mount for the rare reward!
Loyalty rewards
The loyalty system is also in place and functional in relation to the data in your official account. Thus, if you already have a certain number of points with your seniority, then you will have gifts in the inventory of the account. I had pets, dyes, mounts, and mount decorations there. You can also see the unlockable Osun House at Loyalty Level 6.
On Twitter, @Stormyzors has a higher level of loyalty than me and thus had a Technophage Hoverboard!

This already offers a very good overview of the novelties! Personally, I can't do much more with Gamescom in the next few days! Be sure to have lots of new stuff next week!
