So you're saying people should go to the WoW thread to talk about Rift?1stStrike said:
Sweet GM's they're hiring.
He's in a place I can't get to anymore, which is why I contacted you. It would seem that they're outsourcing their GM's or picking only the ones that are terrible at English.
Hi Elvirnith. We are sorry for the inconvenience. The NPC is always on the move and needs to to be find. We would live advised you to look at the forum http://www.riftjunkies.com/. Thank you

How do I get rid of Shardstone if the invasion is over? It's just stuck there on my back, and I can't mount. Very frustrating. I wish there was an actual manual or something.
Edit: Nevermind. Wow, they really need to make a map marker for it, or something. That was stupid. Now I think I'll avoid picking up shardstone.

So do the achievements do anything or it's just bragging rights crap?
Whelp, after quitting WoW for the time being, I picked this up and am about to log in for the first time. I'll be playing a warrior and will app to lotus cross when I know what my name is.
I will be tanking, as that's what I've been raiding in WoW for years. Hopefully you guys are looking for more tanks.

Yeah, there's some place outside of Meridian (or some other place if you're a Guardian?). Hard to describe where it is. But it's not RIGHT outside the city, it is a little ways down the road. You just go up and click on the huge red stone thingy they have there, and it goes away.
Edit: Down the road towards the Scarred Mire. I don't know if it is always there, but that's where it was this past time.

So is it just me or the game has a very soft look to it? Almost feels blurry looking at times. Is there a setting I need to tweak to sharpen it up or is it intentionally supposed to look like this?

Could have sworn there is a bloom setting, might want to mess with that, I turned it off. Will post a screen as soon as I get pass this hour long queue =/BattleMonkey said:

Grats!
Ok so I finally got in on Belmont.
I created a bigass purple dude named Steamroller.
So far, the performance has been from ok to complete shit on my comp.
I'm running on a near out-of-date PC.
C2D 2.13 ghz overclocked to 2.5ghz
Radeon 4850 512MB
4GB corsair RAM
I really don't want to do a processor upgrade right now because I'll have to buy a new mobo and memory to go along with it.
I wonder if I'll get better performance if I upgrade my vid card. Right now I'm getting about 30fps on medium settings. Would $150 vid card upgrade over what I'm using now make a difference? That's about all I want to spend. Or do I really need to go the new processor route? It'll be another year or so before I can do this.

A new GPU might give you a slightly better performance, but it's definitely your CPU that's bottlenecking you.
Congrats to Wallach and BigAT!
Hit 20 on my warrior last night and still at 25 on my mage.
Tempted to roll yet another as I was fooling around with the character creator and made an awesome white dreaded bahmi beastmaster.
Thanks again to the Lotus members who took me through Iron Tombs last night, Inorite, Pipster and ark I believe.
Was a fun cakewalk with over leveled group members.
I have had my first two bluescreens on my computer with the game.
I am getting decent frame rates but they range wildly from 30-120 depending on density of players.
My machine is i7860 2.8ghz 2x 5870's and 4gig DDR3. I am also using the d3d9.dll that was used as a fix for fallout NV.
I have read that using radeon pro to force AFR for crossfire may help as well and I will try that tonight.

Easy peasy to tank as a pala.
I found that that boss kind of needs an off healer, for all the AoE damage being dished out. Even if people are away from the red crystal, he AoEs everyone for around 600-800 damage when it comes out. Bard or chloro does the trick.

The final boss in DSM was tough to heal through until I told the ranged to spread out, then the damage becomes manageable, rarely do I have to group heal. The two biggest issues we ran into with him is A.) getting dps to kill crystals or B.) having all casters for dps and running themselves OOM half way through the fight.

Is there a guide or such online that explains various things like how exactly the invasions work and other details. Lot of things are common sense or seem taken from other MMO's so easy to figure out, but the game leaves lot of things vague or unexplained.
Yea edge smoothing was the problem, makes a huge change in visuals as everything looks hazy like some kind of console game. Super sampling looks great and I get around 40fps most of the time, but any time I get into a Rift it goes into the teens lol

BattleMonkey said:
Super sampling probably doubles either the horizontal or vertical resolution of the game, essentially making it render double the amount of pixels. Basically, it would double your GPU load and cut the performance in half, as long as you're not CPU bottlenecked. It looks a lot better than traditional anti-aliasing, but is very demanding.
edit: judging by the aliasing in my above screenshot, it looks like it's doubling the horizontal pixels. If you look at vertical cliffs, they look very smooth, but horizontal lines still have aliasing.

Yea it looks great with Super Sampling on, and runs pretty well for me, it's just those Rift invasions that are almost unplayable though with it on and getting low teens on my fps. Almost feel like I want to play the game with sampling on and then before jumping into a rift battle, turning off the aa lol

Best time for it to go down. I was playing last night and had to step away from the game in the middle of a major invasion boss fight to get the pizza from the delivery guy!1stStrike said:Rage

is this game awesome? I only played open beta for like an hour.
I am tempted. Still looking forward to TERA and SWTOR.

Not nearly level 50, but at level 33 (almost level 34), I already have around 50 hours played. Some of the power gamers in my guild who have been level 50 for a couple of days now said they have around six days played time.

So, yeah.. There's no way that Archon/Chloro isn't going to be nerfed.
I was killing two mobs for a quest.
A rogue at my level pops out of stealth and tries to gank me...
He died like a bitch as he ran.

using the code burnout on Direct2Drive gives 20% off this game
