Troy “Aether” Hewitt forced, erm pinched convinced Lead Client Engineer Jon “Underdog” Wiesman to answer some questions for us at Wildstar Central.

Congratulations to Carbine Studios! It seems that the crowd anticipating their upcoming MMOPRG Wildstar is growing day by day and has reached 10000 fans on Facebook. As reward they are giving away a nice T-Shirt.
Today we get an update on Metal Maw, a few new animations and the lore behind this boss. If you want to learn how the Eldan bio-engineered Metal Maw then read on!
Last week Carbine Studios introduced the Zone Algoroc to us and now gives us a closer look at the hostile parties that will oppose our presence on Nexus. Atreid hands us data on the “Deadstar Marauders”, “The Darkspur Cartel” and “THE CROWE GANG”. Their history, races, latest activities and other intel.
If you paid attention to previous Wildstar Wednesdays you noticed that the only zone we heard about was “The Northern Wilds”. For the Hoverbike screenshots Carbine Studios took us to a new Zone were taken in a new Zone and today we learn its name is Algoroc.
This weeks Wildstar Wednesday shows 3 different minibosses from the starter area. Frost Giant, Xenobite Queen and the Zones bad-ass ULTRABOT. If you saw the video presentation then you have most likely already seen the Frost Giant and Ultrabot. The Xenobite Queen has been shown in an uncommented video, I’ll see if I can add it ![]()
But lets look at what Atreid has to say.
