Soldato
I'd rather buy food.
It's fun for a dew weeks when the rifts were new and exciting and everyone took part in zone wide battles.
I'm impressed that those who are moaning about endgame have downed all the bosses in hammerknell! To think they have done it all and not told anybody about it (as even the top guilds in the game haven't done them all yet!). Grats guys.
WoW - 12 Million subs
Guild Wars - 7 Million sales
Aion - over 3 Million Subs
DDO - Over 1 Million active accounts / subs
Rift =/= 2nd place.
Anything to do with MMO statistics is pure garbage these days. I dont get why people get such a massive happy over how well the games they play have sold.
The developers of Rift also havnt made this statement, nor is there any source or any actual evidence behind the claim (as it is being discussed to death here http://www.mmorpg.com/discussion2.cfm/thread/311869/page/1). Its just a clueless rabid fanboy posting nonsense about his favorite game on the interwebs.
Aion has nowhere near 3mil subs in the west, its probably nearer to 100k

Ah yes, the reason it has so many players is because it doesnt actually have subs in Asia.
Proof that people in the west dont like fee based MMOs.

give it another month and it will be f2p
Anyway, I've never tried a f2p mmo but I played a good 400 hours of battlefield heroes and spent well over £100. They promised they'd never se items that gave players an advantage. They soon couldn't keep that promise. So for me f2p spells bad news. Micro transactions aren't the way to go. Look at how much of a cash cow the COD series has become with it's overpriced dlc packs and look at whats happened to tf2.
What's Rift's USP?
