In WildStar, the number of light sources is significantly increased. This improves the visuals but also consumes more performance.

Next week marks the transition of WildStar to a Free2Play model. In addition to many changes and improvements to the gameplay experience, the graphics of the SciFi MMORPG will also receive some polishing, as many areas will be equipped with new light sources.
Formerly monotonous textures, such as grassy landscapes or large stone walls, will become quite appealing areas of the environment that fit well with the respective atmosphere. Especially the light sources from stars or campfires are expected to cast the game in a noticeably more beautiful light.

Unfortunately, with the patch on Tuesday not all areas will yet be equipped with new light sources. Until this has been done across the entire game world, several updates will occur – at least in the starting areas, the effects are noticeably felt.
