Oh sorry, I mean Rift: Planes of Warcraft . . err . . Telara

 

LOL comments like these make me laugh. Every fantasy MMO is someone copying off of someone else huh?

Yes, EQ, WoW and whoever else created the fantasy MMO genre did you know that? They all had their own orginal unique ideas. So anything else is copying,

Bahahaha give me an effing break .

I know, but they just changed it again. Now it is Rift instead of Rift: Planes of Telara

Okay I've heard this a couple of times already? Can you link me source (not really doubting you you're one of the few non-morons on this site, but I'd like a source just the same).
This is pretty significant news if true, that means not only has Trion won the case against them by Palladium but that the courts have completely overturned Palladium's "Rift" trademark in the venue of video games (Palladium would still obviously hold the Rift trademark in PnP).
Otherwise there's no way in hell they could get away with calling their game just Rift.
 
Their homepage still has Planes of Telara on it...

Yes I noticed this as well, which is why for the time being I'm not taking the massively and curse articles at face value.

 

There has been no change it is Rift: Planes of Telara and like anyone today on the internet we cut it down to something shorter,which is why most just refer to it as Rift.

Check out their website - it is now RIFT on the forum page hence the confusion.  http://forums.riftgame.com/

Well not really but they did start and popularize the particular MMO formula that RIFT is using.

It will be interesting to see if RIFT manages to crawl out of WoWs shadow.

Just checked out their website and the title on the forums now says just RIFT.  http://forums.riftgame.com/

Also, their press release page doesn't mention the name change specifically but it is using the just RIFT title for everything now.  http://trionpress.com/product.asp?s=186

So excited that this game is getting so much love. Hope I will get picked for CB. The class system alone is going to be so much fun to play with.

Looking forward to this one as well.

Been a member of their forums for about 8-ish months now, hope I get an invite as well.

Woo get to make use of my VIP code finally! :D

On the main website it is just Rift now too. http://www.riftgame.com/en/

This game looks so good.

I hope they do really well , not kidding as long the game is polished its the most important feature .

Signed up

Oh joy now we get to see a ton of "why didn't I get in closed beta" posts.  

Just because you get a code does not mean you get into a closed beta, they only let a few test and most of those are ones they know will provide input.

If there are still any VIP beta codes, I would love to get one, thanks
