Definately worth playing

in Rift

This game is actually quite a good wow/war clone that definately improves upon those 2 games.

Not really anything I can complain about except that I havent really found any need to talk to any players yet.

 

Its a very good single player game with other players running around , but Im still only level 9 so maybe there are dungeons that require grouping later on.

Otherwise I guess i need to wait for EQ3 to come out.

    Well the guys who just downed the last raid boss in the first raid said this:

    *********************************

    Seriouspost here but...



    Trion did good. Yes we did the content we'd never seen in two days but:



    A) It's an intro raid tier.

    B) Our gear levels are very solid (most of us are in full t2)

    C) Our members have an extremely solid pedigree. The bulk of our raid is 13/13 H in WoW, coming from various top 10/20 WoW guilds.



    The bosses are a bit undertuned but they're fun, engaging, and rewarding. We also have a lot of other content to consume, and we've all been playing hardcore (although only recently raiding hardcore). Mechanics are fun (Hylas transition I'm lookin' at you. Blightleaf Stalkers D, the tuning's pretty decent in spots (tank damage and requirements on Greenscale), and most importantly we have things to go do in between. We can go roll Guardian raid rifts, do our own, run t2s for whatever, etc.



    I look forward to the next patch with a new raid instance, but I'm overall pretty happy with how things are right now.



    Except for the loot situation. It's ********, completely. 2 tier pieces out of 5 bosses, 10 total loots. Blurgh.

    *******************************************

    End game looks pretty solid

     

     

    Edit: Almost 10 minutes after that raid drops Greenscale a GM post this:

     

    Good evening to all of you intrepid raiders and raidettes! I am here to drop you all a line and alert you to some upcoming tuning changes in Greenscale's Blight. Raiding in the live game is going well, but like any other ongoing service, we are always watching the data and ready to make tweaks to achieve the balance we want.



    We are intending to push an update tomorrow morning containing the most recent round of balance adjustments. I won't enumerate these changes here, so I'm afraid you'll have to go adventuring to find out exactly which mechanics have been adjusted.



    As always, your ongoing feedback is welcome and appreciated.

     

     

    I expect buffs to be on the way

    I see what you did there... though sadly this is not an improvement on WoW so even that failed.

    I must be blind compaired to you as I did not see 'what you did there'.

    Rift does not need to improve on WoW, it needs to be as good as with better graphics. Job done.

     I think it is an improvement on WoW however not as much as one would expect considering WoW has been around for a long time.

    This game will probably be a good time sink up until SWTOR is released to become the next MMORPG of the decade .
