There's a couple people on the forum planning to play RIFT.
The Headstart for Pre-Orders is 10:00am Pacific on Thursday. Trion just put a link to the client on their site:
http://update2.triongames.com/patcher/public/Rift_LIVE_Patcher_setup.exe
The beta client apparently won't work and you'll need to download the live client.
For everyone else the game is live next Tuesday.

I'm gonna carebear it up with the Neofag guild on a PvE server. :heart

I have a feeling that this is gonna be the one, guys.

I'm sticking with the Faeblight community. Faeblight was PVE-RP in beta and Defiant side was the best community ever. If they rename Faeblight, they're just going to move the first PVE-RP server on the list.

It's EA.

??? EA have been great this gen... What's your point?

Oh boy, another MMO that's hyped as the WOW killer yet becomes irrelevant after a few months. Oh, but I'm sure this will be so different from Aion, Warhammer, and other MMOs that had so much promise!

Trion Worlds announced today that more than one million accounts have been created to date, signaling a high level of interest for the company’s first massively multiplayer online game, Rift™, which is scheduled to launch March 1st in North America and March 4th in Europe. The news hits just as the game’s Head Start period begins, giving pre-order customers advance playtime before servers officially open on launch day.
Launching with 28 Head Start servers, Rift will feature dedicated realms for PvP, PvE, and role-playing players. Servers are live today, coinciding with the game’s Head Start period, which lasts until the game launches on March 1st in North America and March 4th in Europe.

If you didn't know, today is the head start launch of RIFT and the beginning of many strained household relationships as players finally dive into Telara for real. While we've known for some time that Trion World's creation was going to be a major player in the MMO field, it seems as though RIFT's release has caused other MMO studios to step up and take countermeasures.
In the past 24 hours, there has been a few significant developments that seem suspicious in regards to timing, at least. The first is that Blizzard dropped World of Warcraft's next content update, Patch 4.1, on to the public test server in the middle of the night. Mortal Online's announced that its free 14-day trial program is now active for any interested parties. We've also received numerous reports that EA Mythic has disabled the cancel subscription option for Warhammer Online.
Although we obviously can't be certain that all of these events are due to RIFT, timing, as they say, is everything. Have you seen any other MMO studios stepping up their game today as a distraction from the new shiny?

Um. I started the head start and tried to log into a server, they are ALL full, is this for real or is it some kind of marketing scheme?

No it wasn't, it was a reverse troll by us. We managed to get Goon Squad, GS, and some big european guild who trademarked their guild name so they're thretening to sue us.

how are you enjoying tank?
I think I might leave the goon server, I hate this long fucking queue. what server you guys on?
-
I didn't like leveling as a tank spec in Beta 7. I did a DPS warrior from 1-13 and then picked up the tank souls for instances.

I decided to try out another server and am having way more fun, will upload screenshots in ab it.

Wonder when they start cracking down on the real world names

I cant take it anymore. I HATE this game. The biggest thing wrong with WoW they kept, the quest system. And i cant stand the game because of it and have stopped playing.

That helm is the sane graphic for the level 20 epic planar helm.

its so dumb looking.

Almost have enough Favor to buy the Templar PVP soul. Thinking of a Purifier/Templar/Inquisitor build for PVP. Maybe Cabalist instead of Inquisitor though.

I got Templar last night but dont fret over it, because you can't go past the first tier of the tree until level 50 when you unlock PVP Level 2. It's distinguished mentally-challenged.

The quest structure is exactly like wow. You even find items that give quests like wow. There are even animations for using items like WoW. Do you really want to spend another 100 hours going from doing quest like "kill 10 wolves" only to do the same thign over and over again but with the names changed like "kill 10 hyper mega wolves"?

Users will see the Coin Locked icon in the spot where their tutorial button shows up. Deactivating the tutorial tips will not turn off the Coin Locked button.
While in a Coin Locked status, users will have the following limitations:
• No access to the auction house
• No ability to SEND mail. Users can still receive and view mail as well as remove items from mail
• No ability to SELL to vendors. Users can still purchase items from vendors
• No ability to salvage, runebreak or destroy items
• No ability to trade
• Users can continue to play and gain coin and items, but cannot get rid of them.

If you cannot access your email or you are otherwise unable to change your Coin Locked status, please contact Customer Service.
We’re also working on the addition of two-factor authentication at the login level, which will let you use an app or a cell phone as a way to ensure that you’re the one logging on. (You may have heard of this in other products as a SecurID or an Authenticator.) We’ll be sharing specifics on that as soon as we can as well.

So are bards overpowered early or what? "Cadence" give quick combo points, heals up to 10 players, and cannot be dodged.

Bards can be real bitches to kill in PVP. Not OP though.
