    Are there any plans to improve the combat melee and caster animations? I personally don't mind it, but I hear more and more people complaining about it. Otherwise the game is perfect. GJ Trion. Old sub that came back to the game.

    Why do they have so many different coins for so many different things. To me it gets confusing on what I can buy from whom and where. I have only started playing again before the FTP patch and maybe 3 months after launch, so maybe its just me.

    serious question: will there ever be more hair styles and beards for male races at all?

    and can you tone down on the rifts abit? i feel hunted and stressed and had to quit.

    true story.

    other then that. great game. keep on trucking.

    Eventually will guilds be able to put NPC guild vendors in their dimension? Use it like a bank kind  of thing where only certain people have access to load the vendor with items and set prices, but anyone in the guild can buy from it.

    How about crafting stations and craft trainers? 

    What other plans are there for guild dimensions, as of now, kind of no point in having them if they are not somewhat meaningful in purpose.

    Has Trion learned it's lesson with P2P WoW clones?   (Of course worded in a much more sugar coated, PR friendly question)

    What would you say to veteran players who were with you from the very beginning who are unhappy with the course the game has taken to get them to come back and play.

    Has any consideration been given to rewarding players for their efforts in dimensions or improving the dimension rankings? I recently tried Rift and immediately sank every coin I had into my dimension the moment I got it. I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed that after a week no one, save one guildie, had visited my dimension. I felt that one of Rifts best features wasn't rewarding me; neither with items or with the chance for appreciation from other dimension enthusiasts.

    Could Trion PLEASE add new Races for each side possibly selling them in the store individually than in an expansion? I REALLY had to agree with a Barrens chat the other night about Rift's races being sooo generically Human, Elf, Dwarf for Guardians and "Middle Eastern", Drow, and Ogre-ish for Defiant.

     

    I also have to 2nd syltmacka's question about selling new Hairstyles (like SWTOR has) and not just for males.

    Before lying a question, let me say this about RIFT.

    RIFT was the evolution of WoW everywhere except, perhaps, the end game. RIFT was the marvel of social engineering, bigger than FaceBook? Broader than Youtube? Well... from the endgame backward to the very beginning, RIFT tore a page out of the expectation dictionary and re-wrote the definition of fantasy.

    The land mass did not need to be epic. The linear-fed quest hubs could have evolved more, such as those in The Secret World. PvP has a very decent FPS feel. But, Im level capped and my adventuring has ceased for the WoW-Clone 'endgame'. 

    My question...

    Is that all you got?!?

    Transport me to Stormwind and lets see the look on the faces of those players there! Impossible, yes. Epic, hells to the yes.

    YOU ARE RIFT!!!  I believe in you.

    Or at least give the current races some personality

  • JorlJorl Member UncommonPosts: 257

    This isn't a question, but more of a suggestion.

    Why not add more races from rift planes for example... Lizard/drake, cyclops, Orcs, Ogres, Trolls, Goblins, Hobgoblins, Centaurs, Gnolls, bugbears.

    One of the current races (defiant) comes from a plane. I think its Air or earth, cant remember which.

    My questions would be, why are combat animations still god awful, and why is pvp still god awful.

    i have a technical question, as we know rift is almost unplayable on amd processors, when can we hope to get the full implementation of the multithreading support that was supposed to come with 2.3 patch?

    The main issue I have with the game is during initial melee. I play a warrior and a cleric. When I initiate combat I usually use a rush/charge opener. After that when ever I move the screen quite often spins around even though I am facing forward.

     

    I played for the 1st 2-3 months the game came out but quit as I got sick of the headaches it caused me.  Rush in kill move start running screen spins 360 degrees.

     

    Also I found the Artifacts side of the game enjoyable but they ended up being so pointless, as you finish a zone well before you could even complete a single set. I have gone back over the lower level zones to complete the sets but the rewards are so lame. It is as if you expect that people would complete the artifacts in a zone before moving on but leveling was so fast it was pointless staying in a zone more then a week.

    Just want to say that a lot of the questions in here have been answered, if you really need the answer just google it and ad rift next to it or something ( not saying it's bad to ask or you should research before you ask or whatever, just saying that you could get your answer right now instead of later)

    Will we be seeing new class, new race and new starting area?

    Any plans to improve combat animations, spells ?

    Will they ever fix the spin around bug with the right mousebutton?
  • I would like to see slow down level speed, add again stop XP button.

    More combat animation, more outfits and weapon models, or outfiting weapons like in EQ2.

    More functionality options for guild houses.

    What are the chances of new paths to the level cap?  Aside from one for Defiant, and one for Guardians?  More variety is good!

    Try to be excellent to everyone you meet. You never know what someone else has seen or endured.

    How hard and how long would it take to create a more open pvp frontier like DAoC , Aion, or the fail GW2 where you can capture Keeps and other objectives to help boost the faction due to obtaining these objectives?  Pvp rifts I harly see them, and I am already bored of the same 'ol Warfronts.

    Also, any plans on making flight available?  =)  I mean, like flying mounts.

    it sounds trivial but, will they allow mods that enables the user to change sound effects or bgms?

    edit: or actually will they change / improve the current sounds and bgms in the game?

    It appears that the new "3.0 souls" have been leaked by data miners (Arbiter, Liberator, Physician, and Crusader) can you confirm that these are indeed the souls?

    Will you add the function to make it stop raining/snowing indoors for dimensions and will you add it so we can sit in chairs, lay in beds, ect?

    Please make the beginning horse scale to the fastest owned mount as well as add additional running animations.
