RIFT : Planes of Telara

Yea that is the only thing that makes me tempted. But I can borrow a friends account to try it. I will just come visit you to get the installed files :P
 
IF my line is fixed tonight, ill watch some youtube vids and read reviews, im still not so sure about this one but the concept was awesome i must admit.

Are u going to join the Prophecy guild? I don't want to start alone, so I will probably be joining them. They can help me with my noobness at the game :p

Most of the people I know ... and a few of my mates ... have pulled into Prophecy - so I will most likely join them. Although I'm toying with the idea of going solo - but I'm not in the mood to start my own guild this time around, especially since I'll be dropping out when GW2 comes along.
 
I ordered my game but I'm not sure if I will be getting it tomorrow. Is they any way to get the patch so long so that I can start playing immediately?

@Shadowfox I'd like to join your little group if I can. :D

Don't mind hooking up. But I think it's time we give the OP some work to do ... you up for it Proph?

Everybody needs to start posting characters so we can find each other in-game :) And Prophet can pop them into the first post so we don't have to go hunting :)
 
Oooh ... Prophet can copy the "<name>'s leet <mmo> starter guide" template and get cracking! :D

lol

I've given up with Aion. They've just kept changing things to rapidly for me to be able to keep up. With patch 2.5 due in the next few months, things were changing even more. I'll give RIFT a guide a skip. Maybe :p
 
It's cool that more guys are joining :).

Tomorrow patch 1.01 will be released:

Hey, everyone.

As you’ve probably noticed -- We launched! Last week was four retail launches in four different territories. By and large, everything went extremely well. Nothing exploded, and we’re rapidly adjusting to the pace of being a live game.

Now that we’ve all collectively survived the process of taking a game from Beta to Live, it’s time to resume focusing on what’s coming up in the future.

In the next day, you’re going to see our first real update. (8AM PST Thursday for the NA servers, 2AM UTC Friday for the EU servers)

This first update does have some new content, and also includes a rather large collection of tweaks, fixes, and updates that come from a few different sources.

They’ve been picked out of what people have been reporting in game, as well as a number of beta-reported polish items that didn’t make it in time for head start, and also some further refinement and tuning after seeing what happens when people finally get the chance to play characters that’ll be around forever.

Some of the things to expect tomorrow are…

• Raid rifts!

• Improvements to Rift, Invasion, and Foothold experience gains

• See more quests at once in the tracker if you choose

• Better item stack management

• PvE end-game difficulty better suited to the power of real end-game characters


Making sure that we can do an update like this successfully is an important step on the road to doing even larger scale content and systems additions in the not-too-distant future.

Our team will be right here while this first update is going on. We’ll be checking out the servers alongside you, and will be here to respond to any surprise issues that do occur.

We also have a lot more in development than the first look you’ll be seeing tomorrow.

On top of ongoing new content and large feature development, many of which you’ll be hearing about on our site and others, there are some other, smaller improvements we’re working toward – I wanted to call these out specifically since they’re pretty frequently commented on.

• Mages. Yes, we’re both listening to you and paying attention to the post-launch gameplay data on our servers. While a well-played mage does do extremely well, and mages are very well represented in the overall number of active characters, there are issues with competitiveness in some low and mid level ranges and certain combinations of souls, due largely to mages’ overall fragility and cast times.

• Mail Spam. Chat spam protection has been going really well on the whole, which, predictably, pushed spammers into mail. We’ll be putting more protection in place there soon.

• Event Contribution. This system is being reworked to be more in line with the idea of events being massively social occurrences, and the focus on abilities themselves will be going away entirely.

• Anti-Hacker Protection. As a very high priority, we’re working on new and interesting ways to help you make sure your account is protected from password phishing and keyloggers. In the short time since head start, we’ve already banned a couple thousand spammers, hackers, farmers, and thieves. We’ll continue improving our detection and ability to take action on them well into the future.

• Dismount and Exposed. Expect some changes here as well.


Thank you all for your dedication so far – We look forward to this first small update, and a host of even larger ones in the future!

- The RIFT Development Team

Nyahaha. I'm keeping all my stuff. I know NC - they'll do reactivation events from time to time (probably right after the 2.5 patch) that'll let you play for free for a week or so. I'm not gonna be running around with a bunch of bare-naked ladies :p
