Let me know when mounts move faster...

and players running becomes faster.

 

Its a cheap trick to make characters move extra slowly.  That was used 5 years ago to make worlds feel bigger.  THis is 2011.

 

Until this happens I will not touch Rift.  Plz let me know if these features change.

    Don't let the door hit'cha where the good lord split'cha.

    Seriously.... one race gets a +30% buff, another gets a group buff for like 15%... mounts can be sped up through either doing PvP or questing and earning the credits to buy a faster mount.  QQ'ing about standard MMO characteristics.

    And WHY do you think that there needed to be another useless post about some point that is insignificant to the overall play/feel of the game?

    It has changed..

    now you can do many things to go faster

    1. potions

    2. clickables that change your form and give speed increase

    3. souls that have skills in them that increase speed

    4. at level 40 and 50 there are 2 more mounts that go faster.

    still not enuff?

    how about teleporting.....yes it's in the game and you can teleport far distances by using your recall skill and using unlocked portculums.

     

    So there you go....many forms of increased speed.

    Good to hear the devs are working on it.  Still looking at high end live feeds like on Xfire shows mounts moving very slow. 

    I expect more from a game that is supposedly challenging WOW in terms of gameplay and feel.   Just can't see the reason why they slow it this much down.  Not to mention ppl riding around on turtles rather than some cool looking mounts.  But maybe thats because horses dont look that great ingame either..  And their animation speed is very awkward.

     

    And btw - Im not the only one that feels this way - there are quite a few posts around talking about this.
