Rift: Planes of Telara is a huge project. Four years in development with multiple millions spent on it by a series of heavyweight investors, the game is aiming to force its way into the competitive MMO market as a serious contender. On the fifth floor of the Trion Worlds office in Redwood Shores, San Francisco, there are more than 130 people making the magic happen. Around half of these employees have prior MMO experience, having worked on titles like Dark Age of Camelot, EverQuest 2, Warhammer Online and World of Warcraft. The structure is in place for the development of a great game, but will Rift deliver a popular, critical hit?
Players can progress through 30 levels of challenges by completing daily and weekly quests, thus earning Battle Pass experience points and rewards. The Battle Pass can be played for free and will reward players with various consumables and a set of artifacts that will literally make their pants burn – the “Pants on Fire” effect
gamigo is pleased to announce it has assembled a hefty collection of in-game events, quests and items for the “Budgie Carnival Celebration” in its fantasy MMORPG, RIFT.
After an indeterminate amount of time, the Hellbugs have reared their ugly heads once again to invade Rift. It’s up to players to fight these hellish creatures to save Telara – and in doing so – earn a number of unique rewards that will display their dominance over the Hellbugs.
Thsi is one MMORPG I am actually looking forward to, it does look pretty cool but release is a long way off :(
Yeah, it's coming 2011 but the guys I spoke to wouldn't be drawn on WHEN in 2011. So that kinda gives you a span of 3 months to a year away.
