To any Saga-ites who may think Wildstar isn't their cup of tea, I urge you to try it, it's free.

Yes, it's sci-fi, but done in a good way. A very enjoyable game.

Was just about to post this.

So there will be a few new abilities added when you hit level 30? I am not gonna hit level 30 though since it is still only beta so I guess I will just mess around a bit with people if they come and give it a try.

Not new abilities. Just new action slots. I assume 30 is when you unlock the last one? Unless I read wrong, which is entirely possible.

I think you unlock two new abilities at 30 - at least esper did

I got a closed beta key last weekend, but didn't get to play much. I may try the open Beta, though, since I've already got the game client on my computer. I'm not sure if I'm going to buy the game right away, though. I haven't even begun scratching the surface of exploring ESO.

So what exactly is the deal?
It's free or do you have to buy the game?
How long is this open beta? Can anyone play open beta?
Someone post the relevant details please.

Open beta from May. 8 to May 18. Level cap. 30

" If you have already participated in any other WildStar beta event, including beta weekends and stress tests, you don't need a new key. Just patch up, and you're good to go!"

Make and sign into your NCSoft (http://us.ncsoft.com/en/) account and go to the Open Beta page which will be up on May 8th. There you can request a Beta key number, then download and go.

Open beta will be the home stretch test before release.

It's free or do you have to buy the game?

Open Beta is free but the released game has a box price and a subscription (worth it)

How long is this open beta? Can anyone play open beta?

Open Beta lasts for 10 days & as the name indicates it is "Open" to everyone

Someone post the relevant details please.

Hope this helps & I'm playing Dominion (so as not to spoil exile) if there are any others around willing to take an initiate on a ride along.
