WildStar is the fantasy/sci-fi MMORPG that had fans raving for months. Plastered on billboards, street signs, and even Taxi’s it generated a massive fanbase even before it’s launch in June. Since then developers, Carbine Studios, has done all that they can to ensure the game runs smoothly as possible. However recently they’ve noticed an issue with account security and players losing their collectibles and other in-game goodies. So what are they doing to remedy the situation? They’ve enacted a 2-step verification system to help weave out online thieves!

The 2-step verification simply put is just a secondary password, the difference being that it is a password made of randomly generated numbers and leaves no room for user error. The developers had this to say, “Imagine you’re enjoying all Nexus has to offer. You’ve obtained the rarest of Housing decor, you’ve maxed your Arena rank in PvP, and you’re swimming in gold like the Nexus version of Scrooge McDuck. Living the good life, right? Then all of a sudden, you log in and all your items are gone, your character’s left cold and nude in the middle of the capital, and your hard-earned cash has been stolen! That’s just the worst. Now imagine that you have 2-Step Verification set-up and it’s back to the good life. Your items are safe, your gold’s secure. Now your account’s much less at risk of being compromised and you can focus on the important stuff.”

Players who utilize the 2-step verification system are in luck because Carbine is giving away a bunch of goodies. Starting July 10th gamers will get a two percent XP bonus, a decorative headpiece, a new title, and the Retroblade mount! All this and the sense of security that your account won’t get stolen? Thank you WildStar!
