Rift - new game just got out of Beta. AWESOME GAME!!!
<< < (4/6) > >>
tikitai:
after guild wars 2 this will be left on the dust anyways
Littledude:
I played the beta for a bit and really enjoyed, best MMO I've played actually and it didn't feel like WoW at all, besides the parts of it that exist in every MMO, due to them being the foundations of an MMO.
The class system is revolutionary as far as I know and I really enjoyed it.
Grumpy:
There are so called innovations, but what they are is just the exact same things disguised.

Example:

Look at the innovative talents tree and all the paths you can take!

Ok WoW has 10 classes, 3 talent trees each = 30 'different paths'

Rift= 4 classes, 8 different options for each = 32 'different paths'


YES QUITE INNOVATIVE, JUST MAKE THE CLASS CATEGORY'S MORE GENERAL SO YOU CAN HAVE A stuff TON OF SUB CLASSES WHERE PROBABLY WHICH HALF ARE CARBON COPIES WITH A DIFFERENT HAIRCUT.

Someone no good at math. In rift you pick 3 classes. Which gives 56 possible combinations per base class.

56 combinations * 4 callings = 224

Also although you have 3 talent trees like on WoW, this game is way more open to do like a 20/20/20 build as opposed to in WoW where you have to max 1 tree and only go 10 in a sub tree.
Grumpy:
So you can pick your skill trees?


What a game seller. My point still stands about how the 8 'paths' under each category are probably pretty similar. How different can Ranger and Marksman be?

Also someone isn't good at english.
