Beta 6 is coming up in four days, 7 five days after that......RIFT will be launching on FEB 22, and my guild is set to go. Server firsts are ours!
Taking off seven weeks from work. Thats right, seven. So like previously mentioned, server firsts should present little to no problems. All RIFT betas have been perfect, no problems at all. The game is perfectly polished with pve and pvp in place allready. The game has multiple battlegrounds, and dungeons as well.
The game is certainly making an impression amongst gamers on multiple gaming sites, and should do rather well at launch. One month after, usually, is the making or breaking of the mmo, when most gamers decide if they will stay or unsub. For this game, my guess is 60 to 75 percent will stay. Ive also seen statistics based on forums posts etc, that those numbers should be approximately accurate.
Now, as they say, waiting is the hardest part. But come launch, this game will be taking off, with myself and my guildmates on board! Cant wait for the ride!
