Wonderful feedback, both. Sets expectations and solves a problem I was wondering about, which was how I prefer to use my Xbox Controller. The Mouse Look thing is actually a dealbreaker/maker, really glad you happened to touch on that issue. Also, that point on how, sure, the mechanics are old MMO-style...but that's not the point of the game, it's about world-building and story. That actually makes sense to me.
Please let us know when the server issues sort of settle down.

I have an Xbox controller that I'll test later on today when I have some time. I'll let you know how it goes.

Thx, but pls don't go out of your way, as I think you already provided a solution with what you said about Mouse Look. I've read how Wild Star doesn't natively support Controllers, but I was just going to use a mapper (i.e. XinMapper) to take care of that.

Yep, you read correctly. The game doesn't support the controller at all. I plugged mine in and it doesn't even recognize it. I couldn't move or make any keybinds with it. No options to use it at all. So yeah you're going to have to use a 3rd party program for it.
Interestingly enough, it seems that the WS devs are musing about the possibility of porting it over to console similar to how Neverwinter did. If that happens at some point in the future then it's possible the PC version might support controllers. But for now yeah, going to have to do it on your own.
Anyway, just thought I'd give it a shot for you since I can get into the game and had a controller on hand.

So check this out. Normally F2P players get 2 character slots but there's a way to get 4 slots. Currently the servers are divided. There's 2 servers of each type and the temp servers will be merged back to the main servers once the devs can fix the megaserver tech. Here's where you can get your 2 free slots. Roll up 2 characters on the first server of your choice. After that, make 2 characters on the secondary temp server. So for example, roll up 2 on Entity and 2 on Entity-2. When those are merged together, you will keep all 4 characters that you made. You don't need to do anything other than simply have them made. Just make them and have them chill out at level 1 in the tutorial. This was actually mentioned by the devs on a recent livestream and is intended as a freebie and is NOT and exploit. So go get your free extra characters.

I lost interest at the login screen. Mouse doesn't seem to be working.... Can't click anything in character creator screen. Or the next one. Or the Race one. I guess i'll try some other time.
Ok. I discovered that the mousepointer is few inches off in vertically and horizontally. Weird.... Now if i could just switch to windowed mode.

So I did some checking around and it looks like the mouse pointer being out of sync is a problem with your resolution settings. It seems if you try to play with a lower resolution than the monitor you use, the mouse pointer gets out of sync just like you describe. It seems that it also happens to some if you play in windowed mode. Try messing around with those settings to see if it fixes it for you.

Thing is, i can't access the game's video options. Since i can't click the Settings button. - - - - Ok, had to do some fiddlydiddlyfiddling. Got it working. - - - Made 2 good guys and 2 baddies. Hrrghh...The controls are not made for my nordic ancestory provided hamfists and sausagefingers. So, no controller support?
Oh. And i'm on the NA server.
