Just reactivated my account for three free days, after playing again since shortly after launch and watching this video of recent end game content... I'm sold. resubbing
I hope they revamp the rest of Telara so it's all as dynamic and fun as this, Some of the models are a little over used, And the rest of the world isn't as stunning as this. But I love Rift and the rest of the game.
I like that Trion treats us as real subscribers. They take care of us and give us more content without having to charge us a one time fee to access new content. This is by far the largest difference between Trion and every other MMO out there
New content looks beatiful. I mean look at this volcano, also glad to hear about new dungeon. Playing Rift since beta and glad to made right choice. The one thing i like about Rift they are improving their game. Doing that by adding new content or fixing bugs or listening their players. I always try to find bugs or short ways in dungeons, found some in past and they fixed all of those issues. Playing a bug-free new game really makes me happy. Game just needs more players and i hope they on road
This is a great addition but one thing this game needs is more unique quest because once you roll a new character you have to grind thru the same storyline all over again. i think quest should be 40%faction 40%race 20%class.
@josefm44 That's true. I would hope that an expansion would bring at least one more early-leveling path for each faction, somewhat like the Draenei and Blood Elf zones in WoW.
Trion could also technically make zones that could be 1/2 for say Lv 20-30 players, with the other half of the zone being clearly made for Lv 50 players. I hope they work on this issue, and use their imaginations on it.
I really hope they stay on this path putting out more and more content making their game even more robust. It seems Wow is reducing their character customization while Rift is expanding their character customization. Wish nothing but the best to Trion and their employees. Its amazing to see so many faces that I got to meet!
And I totally agree with your comment. While Rift is CLEARLY not perfect and isn't even approaching that, I see a consistent and gradual improvement as time goes on, and I'm glad to have supported Trion with a 6-month sub today, bringing me to 8-9 months paid. What they do between now and..lol...Guild Wars 2 will be important, but I have faith in them.
The dude smoking the pipe is a regular mob that you see early on at least on the defiant side and yes you have a quest to kill them. In Warrior DPS mode with GSB/ROS mainly geared it took awhile to kill em and they sucked my down to 50%
@HPGalactis Yes. He's one of the spirits of Ember Isle - to technically, he is a (corrupted) spirit of Telara itself. It's kind of like they are the building blocks that the Vigil used to create their species on the world, and the humans/elves/dwarves of ancient Telara.
@sm0kingJay Theyve fixed the LFG thing up quite a bit now, and you now get pared with people from other servers too. This is nothing other that awesome, and no one can argue with that. Ember Isle, here i come!
@sm0kingJay the dungeon ques are a lot better now, unless you roll a dps of course. also, server population is a great on Deepstrike.. pvp server.. been active since beta and it's still bustling
The place is very fun and has taken FOREVER to pts test it. That video could easily have been 30min long or more with talking about the stuff coming in 1.6...hell it could have been called a expansion honestly.
@QWETWolfenstein yeah, if everquest 2 team released this much content, they would sell it as an "adventure pack" or even an expansion - look at destiny of velious "EXPANSION" they called it an expansion and sold it for 40 bucks, but its like not even as big as ember isle haha, same with the previous expansion "sentinels fate" - I'm impressed by this, I might atually re-subscribe.
No matter how many setbacks you have through bugs you guys still push it and fix it along the way. You make wonderful content and all I have to say is I'm glad I get to experience it all. Trion to be your bar far one of the best out there and RIFT proves that.
-you can ride your mount through it. It's large enough for that, so they allow mounts :)
-I think it comes in regular (I assume for T1-T2 dungeon geared players) and expert modes, and the Expert is divided into two, with the 2nd part of it being the more 'T2'ish level of it. Believe it may come with a Master mode as well for raiders. Basically how Charmer's Caldera and Abyssal Precipice were made for Lv 46-49 players, this new dungeon will be made for full L 50+.
IS it me, or is trion going to be approaching content as downloadable updates and not boxed expansions ''cough wow cough'' ??
