i am giving in )=

ill get it after Wednesday if not then, next week on Wednesday

How big is the world?
is there any speed based classes?

are there certin sides you chooose to play on that limit your ability to play with everyone? like in aion...

You choose to play either defiant or guardian (aion was asmodians vs. Elyos) maynard and I are defiants on the tearfall server. Also, there are roles you can get for pretty much any mmo player. Lots to work with. You can queue for pvp @ level 10 which takes you to the pvp area with your group, against the other side. Also, tearfall is a pvp server, so when you enter certain areas, you're automatically flagged for pvp, but it will warn you first.

this should give you some insight, mikey.

Thanks for the help, one last question.. whats the lvl cap?

Its DLing now
im ready to play this NOW!

[maynard]

lvl 50. you lvl fairly quick in this game though.

So I played 2 hours before class this morning reaching lvl 8. I really like how diverse the class system is and how it is organized. Some minor things I dislike are the lack of auto pick up when fighting more then one monster at a time its nice to be able to pick up the loot while still fighting. I also don't like how there isn't a toggle key for mounts and pets. I notice in maynards screenies that he has sub skill bars how do I go about getting and utilizing those?

The lack of quests so far make the lower lvling seem slow and the storyline is hard to follow, you seem (as the player) to have an underlying goal but the quests aren't labeled primary, ect. So I'm forced to complete every quest as I play.

The fighting system is simple and easy

With all this said id rate the game a 7
Then again it was just released and id more the willingly continue a monthly subscription (=

auto pick up

it's in the options. you need 2 activate it. and you can also pick stuff up while in combat. and if you slay say 3 enemies and their bodies are all real close together, then when you loot 1 of them, you actually loot all of them at the same time.

I also don't like how there isn't a toggle key for mounts and pets

hit c, click mounts, and go drag the picture of your mount 2 your hot bar, you will then have a key toggled for mount.

I notice in maynards screenies that he has sub skill bars how do I go about getting and utilizing those?

options/interface options. then set how many extra bars you want 2 add, and enable side bar.

The lack of quests so far make the lower lvling seem slow

no clue what you're talking about. ive done quests from lvl 1 - 30 and have not once hit a point where there wasn't a quest I could keep doing. you must have gone the wrong way or something cause the quests constantly lead you 2 new areas with more quests. if you're out of quests, you did something wrong. ALL the quests are important, they ALL lead 2 better things. so yes, do every quest you see and you will lvl quick, and constantly get new upgraded gear from the quests. you can also add me 2 your friends list, my ingame name is Wassup, so you can ask me any question in game if you need 2. I wont be on till this evening though.

the storyline is hard to follow

a little yes... but any serious mmo doesn't have a simple story line lol, there's always a SHIT-TON of content behind the lore of MMO games...

Thanks for the help again.

I couldnt really go in depth with what i was trying to say about the quest thing because i was on my phone in the middle of class.

what i mean by the quests (comparing rift with other mmos) is that instead of having 100 diffrent quests to choose from you have a set amount that you follow. I dont see my self starting a new character and taking a diffrent path apart from the one i am taking now, thats what i meant by the quest thing. I like a diverse progression where it donst have to be the same thing over and over again with each new character.

I met my first random rift earlier today, i enjoyed this and im sure down the road they will add a TON more stuff to kep me interested.

[maynard]

ya I see what your saying and agree. there should be more starting areas and or quests for the diff classes. given the few flaws though ive found, overall it's an AWESOME mmo.

the rifts are also a good means of XP once you get up in lvl a bit. they start paying off real good, and you can get some awesome items out of them. also the invasions are real fun also.

[XX0wnsXY]

Yeah, Mikey. My name is Astraea. Feel free to add me, too. Most of your dislikes can be found in options. You can edit pretty much every single setting in the game (even the layout, by esc + edit layout). It's pretty damn amazing.

[DJ_MikeyRevile]

yea im starting to figure this out quickly...

im not even bothering with quests i find my self running from one invasion to rift to the next almost constantly. Im lvl 10 atm, with 1 plat and some like corrupted sorcestone thinger.

no super items yet but i feel it coming.

i forget what exactly my classes are but here it is

Rouge
Assassin
Riftstalker?
Nightblade?
