Considering Carbine Studios was founded by 17 members of the World of Warcraft development team, I can forgive the re-use of the terms āArenasā and āBattlegroundsā. Itās the combat that matters, and WildStarās isnāt very much like WoW at all.
With the June launch just a couple of months away, weāre finally getting our first good look at WildStarās PVP system, and itās not looking too shabby. Thereās real targeting going on there, and Iām a big fan of a level playing field. Will I abuse the hell out of the in-world rival system? No, because I am a big wuss.
The MMORPG gives great video, though of course the proof is in the pudding. Iām still not sure itās a game folks will be willing to pay a regular monthly subscription to play. I suppose weāll find out in the months following June.
