      http://www.whois.com/whois/wildbuddy.com

      Not by them though, but when you go to the address it's for sale.
      However, this indicates nothing, since they can go with any name they want :p

      The point is for the bot to come out! I mean, this game is made to be farmed in concept!

      Isn't it in open beta or something? Besides, I recon they have plenty accounts for testing based on some posts.

      I might prepurchase this too, especially if I know there was going to be a buddybot for it. I have really grown attached to botting. It simplifies so many things and gives you tons of times to do more important things and then just enjoy the game instead of doing monotonous tasks over and over again for 9387283943 hours.

      I wouldn't make a purchase decision based on the accessibility of a bot. In the beginning everything is new so why directly start botting? If you've maxed out char lvl, professions and stuff and need mats or want to level alts, okay, but directly in the beginning?

      Some people get used to botting so much, that they forget / do not want to play their rotations manually anymore. I have seen it happen.

      Yeah sure but i mean beside laziness, what do they do if the have no clue how to play a class at all? What if they have a raid? Do they come up with some crap that they can't raid if it is down for a patch or something? That's silly.

      Especially leveling, where a rotation isn't needed at all.

      I had a lot of people in my guild that suddenly "fell ill" or "had connection issues" on the bot's downtimes :p Some people just want to watch the bot burn.

      I am not sure how i feel about a Bot for WildStar .... i am pretty sure the logic of an AI trying to inter prate the telegraph system will be almost impossibly large so game performance would be lower that it is already ,... and for a new machine running 70fps questing in a raid i am down to 20 fps on a 20man ...

      i do not think i would buy it to be honest :(

      I love HB for WoW ... it is amazing

      but the SWToR buddy is ummm ... less so ..

      anyways thanks to the crew anyways for all the hard work on HB.

      While I wouldn't buy it to play raid for me, maybe some combat routine if I am lazy, I was thinking more of using it to farm me gold to pay for my game time every month!

      Yeah same for me. I guess most people will use it to pay gametime.

      It will take a while for bot development to be finished anyway. It is as you say; in the beginning I will not bot but enjoy every aspect of the game until I grow tired of the farming aspects of the game which I will and then I will search for alternate ways of playing those aspects of the game without loosing out on the parts I find fun.

      In all likelyhood I'm going to prepurchase the game anyway, even if I don't know if there's going to be a bot for it or not.

      Edit: Prepurchasing Digital Deluxe version today; Waiting to see announcement of a bot to purchase too!

      That's the only reasonable way to go, tbh. Still, I think the Combat bot will be like in HB. Even now it supports aoe spells ( could easily adapt to certain telegraphs). It will be pretty basic and yes, in some extent it will hinder performance, but it will be up for CR writers to utilize it fully.

      But it's mining and treasure hunting for me all day man! Gotta keep those CREDDs rolling in.

      Yeah, we're making a bot for Wildstar. (Specifically, I'm kinda working on it by my lonesome!)

      And of course, we'll have nav meshes out of the box.

      [​IMG]

      With that said, I'm going quite a different direction than our other bots. Our Wildstar bot is going to be sitting on a brand-spanking-new framework. Hopefully, that means that 3rd party developers will have a much easier (and much more maintainable) development experience.

      I even have a new AI engine in the works. (However, I'm not 100% sure it will even be totally usable, so I'll be working on it as a "back burner" type of project)

      As usual, early days will be rough, at best.

      I've been spending quite a lot of time porting our tools from x86-only, to support x64. (Our Wildstar bot will probably be the first, and only, bot we make to support both) However, x64 support at this time, is just speculation. If absolutely necessary, we can create a "Wildstar Launcher" of sorts to allow you to run the x86 client. However, that's a last-resort as far as I'm concerned.

      Where is the prepurchase button?

      Now, if some other good dev (Rrrix , Highvoltz, etc....) could join you in development, I would instantly buy 10 pre-licenses, lol. It seems to be quite a lot of work for just 1 person, no matter it is Apoc we're talking.
