Just got a dev response to an issue that has been plaguing me and others  ;) so maybe I'll stick around.  He said the fix is in the pipeline for early next week.

Just keep in mind that Evindra is an RP server and those people tend to.. well nevermind You can figure that out. The top servers are Pergo and Hazak and everything you posted about is REAL. Its' what is actually going on with the game. Some people choose to ignore facts that are in front of them, some people choose to acknowledge them. I want to like the game more than I do, but the issues you listed are real issues that actually happening to everyone in the game. ..Except those that are good at ..housing. If you like housing, then you'll be fine as there isn't much wrong with that aspect of the game. When it comes time to progress at level 50 whether it's PvE or PvP, you'll run face first into all the issues you posted, you can choose to ignore them and say "Tra la la" and skip along happy and merry as some do and continue to WhiteKnight Carbine or you can acknowledge that this stuff is broken.

Poor guy. It's going to be okay man. It's a new game if I have a problem at 50 I'll wait for the fix. I enjoy leveling and have a bunch of classes to try. It's no worries for me I'm sorry it deeply effects you though.

The thing about W* is it's near impossible to get literally stuck because of quest bugs; you can always go to the next hub and grab the next set. If you're still low you can grind a few mobs / run some instanced stuff / PvP to make up the difference. That's a nice feature that prevents quest bugs that do occur from being literally game breaking (though I've seen some folks who are very OCD and just can't continue if they can't complete every single quest on the way). SWTOR hit that snag in the worst way when it launched; however you couldn't skip over the class quests for progression... so in that game it was literally game breaking till fixed.

The game seems fantastic until 50. We all thought so. My friends and I can't even bare to log in anymore. I will still keep an eye on the forums, check in after each drop, and keep paying for game time with credd, but I really could care less about playing the game currently. It's not realistic to expect people to play when the general consensus of the people we play with and our own experience with Wildstar is more frustrating than fun. Before the crap parade rains on me: I have 2 50s I am attuned I have 1800++ rating (which I earned legitimately) My friends all quit for obvious reasons (50 pvp is awful on all counts, pve is grindy, exploits are allowed*, Carbine worships RNGesus, rare and expensive amp/ability upgrades are the worst idea ever, EVER!) Some of us will come back if things get better because we love the combat system
 * Can't argue with this: ToS clearly states rating manipulation is against the rules, massive amounts of people manipulated rating in 2v2 in order to boost people, they make tons of plat, create too high of a 1800 population (which has dramatically affected rbgs), drive legitimate players away, and get 0 punishment. This would have been ok-ish if 3v3 and 5v5 were viable, but they were not because of the wintrading that was also not ever punished. I was very vocal in the beginning about Carbine's inaction and what would happen next on these forums. They chose inaction and now we all deal with the consequences. Out of all the dumb choices, this was by far the most unforgivable and most detrimental (at least to pvp). You can never allow cheaters and abusers to dictate how the game is played by legitimate players. These policies created an exploit to win environment and pvp has snowballed ever since.
