WOW! It is a revolution my friends! Rift the game is maybe now rift the slain? It seems rift which 2 months ago was being propped up as a WOW killer and revolutionary MMO is now being crucified on there own forums for major game flaws.
Rift seems to be a Delightful new fresh approach with tons to do is now being taunted on there own forums as another flop. Is this true? Or is this just ramblings of over opinionated gamers?
Below is things Rift does a fantastic job at... better then any other new mmo I personally have seen. I have played about 15 -20 start up mmo's, this has been smoothest launch i have ever seen. Other then the bad decision making of adding 30 servers the 1st week I think the launch has been amazing.
Lets work this out... major things a MMO needs to be successful?
A+ Smooth Game Play .... check!
A+ Really good graphics .... check!
A+ Tons of Quests .......... check !
A+ Solid amounts of Content check!
A+ Dedicated Staff ............. Check!
CHECK CHECK CHECK CHECK
Level 50 problems in Rift - boring and not properly planned out....
So what is the problem? The problem is subscribers are sick of paying money for games that promise a lot then fail to meet promises.
This Dev promises following:
He is using GM powers to avoid the BS the average player has to experience, which in it self is pretty fail that it is so boring a Dev wants to avoid.
Level 50 mistakes devs have made ... 10 man and 20 man raids, that is what the devs promise as level 50 things to do. Only problem is there are a million small guilds on the servers and getting a group together.
If your not in a guild you can't be summoned to the events, you also can't find a group BECAUSE THERE IS NO GROUP FINDER ... I REPEAT NO GROUP FINDER. Sigh your kidding right? Nope.
That is just one issue the pvp grind is boring and there is little PVP rewards on PVP servers for open word PVP. Another massive flaw. There was hype for this game about it being a pvp game, it is a instanced pvp game now, maybe in future more world pvp will happen? I am not sure.
One really great thing they did was guild leveling, 4 guild quests a week at present date. The system is a fair one until you think about it... suppose you came to rift with your buddies to PVP ??????? Then your stuck do bunch of boring pve quests to level your guild, most hardcore PVPERS don't want to pve.
Okay next issue it cost small fortune to mail stuff in game and there is NO GUILD BANK... this is laughable. Even free to play games have guild banks.
The moron from mmo report talking about wow's content should actually play rift.
Rift is not world of warcraft (a game i cannot stand but is 100 x more to do then rift), hell rift is not even as good as conan or warhammer if your a pvper. Rifts basically are a rip off of warhammer's bo / pq system, atleast warhammer had a group finder, guild bank, and even a guild finder. Rift is a game that is amazing and boring at the same time a hard thing to accomplish, this is something that is hard to achieve in the gaming world.
My hope is they fix there game and work as hard in the next year as they have worked in the past year. They still can be a huge success. Its not to late.
While this guy is pretty gruff..... he pretty much hits on alot of points people are annoyed with.
Seriously wow has nothing to worry about.
DISCUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
