• Originally posted by tank017 Mid level zones were a ghost town last I played..   I felt like I was missing out on content when I couldnt solo a lot of the DE's,so I lost interest and stopped playing. ^ This...quit about a month ago, so maybe …

  in How bad is the "dead mid-level zones" problem? Comment by jmhart January 2013
• I doubt it's an issue SFC is going to fix.  SFC detects corrupt files and replaces any that it finds that are "damaged".  I doubt it's an MBR issue either.  Any sort of soft disk error that would prevent it booting would not magically go away once y…

• The leveling up areas are pretty dead...dead enough for there not be enough people around most of the time to complete any dynamic events which is what made this game fun IMO. Since Anet decided to reinvent dungeon running just a few months after r…

• This is what happens when max leveling speed is too fast.

  in Good game, just too short Comment by jmhart July 2012
• I agree with the OP.  Sell-through means nothing if your retention is poor, which it definitly is for Rift.  I would say it's as bad if not worse than WAR was which suffered from the same problem:  too many servers opened at launch resulting in all …

• I cancelled my sub over a month ago, then made the mistake of coming back for the LFD tool--which is buggy as can be and is basically garbage.  I cancelled again a few weeks ago and am now just waiting for my sub to expire. Firstly, the game level…

  in I cancelled my sub today Comment by jmhart June 2011
• I've been playing since Beta 1 and trying my best to stay interested, but I have to agree with this thread.  The raid content might be fun, but requires you to grind the expert versions of the same dungeons for entirely too long before you are equip…

  in Leveling was fun, End-game is the same crap as other games (WoW, Lotro, etc) Comment by jmhart May 2011
• It's pretty stable now, but having played since the start of Beta 1 I can assure you it lost a lot of players once their first 30 days was up. There simply isn't enough content, leveling is too fast, and endgame is terribly repetitive. People who …

  in Player Base steady? Comment by jmhart May 2011
• While my most recently created L50 is on a nice high pop shard, my original char (stalled at L45) is stuck on what is usually a 'medium' pop shard. Before I cancelled my subscription, I had done several sets of queries using the in-game /who tool …

  in RIFT EU servers are GhostTowns during peak hours now Comment by jmhart May 2011
• I too could use an NA buddy key if anybody has one left.

  in Share the love, share your buddy keys. Comment by jmhart September 2010
• <...>Really?  What does?  Running up to a body of water in a game and hitting an invisible wall keeping you out of the water because the coders couldn't figure out swimming?? Even in LOTRO you can't go under the water but you can swim over it,…

  in Whos not going to play FFXIV because no jumping/sitting/swimming? [POLL] Comment by jmhart July 2010
• That was a good read, though I'll admit I didn't read the last little bit.  I personally only played once, when the game first came out in the US and relate very much to there being a feeling like there were two groups of players:  folks who had bee…

  in FFXI My Journey in an Elitist Game - FFXIV more of the same? Comment by jmhart July 2010
• I definitely understand where you're coming from, but I also can see great value in encouraging people to stick with one in-game 'persona'.  I have never liked the idea that one second I might be in a group with someone who just screwed over another…

• Originally posted by Swanea The REAL problem was that Mythic created elevenity billion servers.  When people did move to another server with their friends, it was empty. The servers that were full on one side stayed full past release.  People wer…

  in The Big Picture Comment by jmhart September 2009
• +1 - Great game so far. Reminds me my first impressions of the original Everquest and WoW when it they first launched...a few glitches but promising gameplay. Yeah the quests are the same old fare, but I see them as merely a way to get extra XP wh…

  in This game rocks. Comment by jmhart September 2009
• I'm really enjoying it as well which surprises me considering there's nothing groundbreaking here, just a good, solid, conventional MMO with artwork and music that is good enough to make me want to play through it just to experience the content. On…

  in Loving AION Comment by jmhart September 2009
• I played for 4 hours and I've had some lag and rubberbanding here and there...a lot right before they took the servers down.  However, I have yet to be booted out completely and haven't seen a single GameGuard error since the 1.5.0.3 patch and I'm r…
