  • Ozmodan : the first few games can seem boring, but you need to give it a little more time to grow on you. Once you know the heroes well, the tactics... it's like chess with team dynamics : you don't complain it's always the same map, each game becom…
  • Combat animations are the weakest part of Rift for me. I found out it also depends on classes. For some souls they were fine to me though not exceptionnal, for others they just turned me down from playing the soul.

  • Hi and welcome in Rift,   the Warrior class looks like the natural choice to pair with a healer (cleric). Unfortunately you disliked the animations. I felt the animations, while not exceptionnal, were ok with a Paragon (dual wield spec). You cou…
  • Necro/lock is very strong from what I could try (especially after level 16 and Soul Purge in the Necro tree). But the other pairings I tried were a bit disappointing. Not bad and still very playable, but I felt overall I could do better on my warrio…
  • As people said, Rift is a good pick if you're still have fun in games like EQ2, WoW, Lotro... etc, but you just need a change of atmosphere.   If you got bored in the first places by those games, Rift may have the same effect on you relatively f…
  • Hi, and welcome in Rift.   You mix 3 souls to build your class in Rift, but you won't be able to max the 3 of them. Most of the time people have one main soul they try to max during the leveling, put the remaining points in the second, and keep …
  • Originally posted by Xasapis A couple of things: * You get bonus exp when you kill mobs grouped * The quest items that drop from a mob, drop for the whole team. * You get solo quest items even if you're in a raid group (we did th…
  • I play on a RP server, and while the community is really nice I still have to read a single "roleplayed" line in the chat. Most of the Roleplaying is done in closed groups of dedicated RPers nowadays and they don't do it with "strangers". That's fai…
  • Originally posted by mmoluva I play Rift solo with my three friends in ventrillo.  We want to play together but grouping would slow our leveling.   I really hear you. And exactly the same for me has happened in WoW, Aion, WAR... etc. I play …
  • Rift is a balanced mix of WoW, EQ2 and WAR, took many good things from those 3, added a little bit of its own flavour. I'd say it's fairly simple, if you're not bored already with this style of game and want a new setting, new atmosphere, new start …
  • Rift's PvE is not that different from WAR's PvE, just much more polished, with more content, and more builds possibilities. If you really enjoyed the PvP's part of WAR, you won't find that in Rift. You can queue for the equivalent of Scenarios, but …
  • Originally posted by Wraithone So, how much PvP content did WoW LAUNCH with?...    This is maybe relevant if you want to start an MMO's study from an historian perspective, but it isnt from a basic player/customer point of view. People wo…
  • Originally posted by 5ubzer0 I had more fun waiting in the queue than playing the game.   This made me laugh. So "subjectively" speaking the queues weren't that bad for you
  • Yea those guys are fun to watch, and they also seem having fun doing their show. I guess that helps
  • I agree that CoX has recently improved alot, from stamina inherent at level 2 (making the 1-20 gameplay much more fun), to the possibility to level any AT both sides (hello hero brutes !), and of course the alpha slot and the new endgame content. …
  • I agree with the above posters that CoH and DC have very few in common, except from being both superhero MMOs.   I like the action/gameplay of DC alot, but in terms of RPG mechanics and char building CoH is far superior. I leveled a few differen…
  • Originally posted by Zefire The game is awesome but it's not polished. I have a lvl 30 character and u dont want to start describing what ive seen from this game. I just give it time because the gameplay is just awesome,it has room for many ma…
  • If you ask to be convinced, that means you probably gonna buy it anyway, am I right ?   My only grip with the game if that they didnt offer a free trial, and I had to buy it without even testing it that I usually dont. I've been also relunctant…
  • Hi masked,   a little hard to answer your poll, I wish the answers would be a little more nuanced than "massive success" or "massive failure". Even if I dont think DCUO will be a "massive" success I still voted A anyway because I enjoy the game …
  • There's indeed alot of "ganking" on the pvp server, you may be constantly attacked by higher lvl players from the opposite faction, or sometime by groups of them, and it will impede your PvE progression. But if you think it that way, you shouldnt ro…
