I am enjoying the betas so far and have little game complaints the graphics are very nice. Could use some better detailing on the gear but looks great. Come on i loved Vanguard beta but when it went live it sucked ass. Vanguard got fixed and played good but it never felt the way rift currently feels atleast not to me it didnt feel complete or atleast not ready to play Rift on the other hand feels ready now even though it is only in BETA 3 or just finished it any way. My only complaint that i can actually say is i have 4 lvl 20s and i want them to be high levels lol. If you are not enjoying rift you are not playing it right lol have fun with it in beta dont force yourself to be an elitist and remember it is beta find bugs/exploints and other issues then report them dont keep them to yourself or they wont get fixed and the game will suck lol. The game is well polished for only being in beta the Alpha testers did great and heck the game is not even optimized yet. Rift has so much going on hell we only have like 1 Zone and 1 dungeon unlocked for us in beta so far the rest you can only see mobs and rifts but you can not cross certain areas so i dont understand why people complain about not enough content its only beta 3 and we dont have access to the stuff the Alpha testers are testing in the mean time. I am sure more content will be in Beta 4 and so on so hold your horses and do what you were told and Beta Test!!!

The settings on Ultra were very nice and could be compared to EQII graphics.

It was very Vibrant

To be honest i felt it was a great Beta 1 and Beta 2. I enjoyed all the different classes and soul trees. I know some classes may need tweaking but they delieved some great content for being Closed Beta 1 and Beta 2 it felt very polished. As for the single starting area for each faction i agree it sucked but atleast u didnt do the exact same quests they seemed to differ by change what you were to do as your class. I forget exactly what they were but it was very cool i think for defiant warriors you saved fallen warrior souls and as a mage you saved the souls of the damned or something like that basically the undead guys. The game felt great to play. and you can Mix Souls your not stuck with just 1 souls or 3 soul. you can even by different roles and as you unlock more and more souls assuming they mean you can unlock every soul to your class that would be just sick to be able to swap out Riftblade and Reaver with my Pally soul or my Warlord Soul without having to make a whole new character not to mention the classes are fun just to play they may be the same as any other MMO but after you have been around MMOs for 10+ years they all feel the same LOL oh and dont forget it was all only UNique once Everquest if your as old as me in MMO years yes i understand MUDs were out before Everquest but nothing is Equal to the first time i made a Dark Elf ShadowKnight. But this game gave me back that feel i had watching my Paladin fly across the screen with his shield Bash lol

It was Very enjoyable is all i can say i have posted lots of info and my feedback on the rift forums on suggestions i have made and reported bugs/exploits/glitches Hope you did the same so that the game can even be better by launch I look forward to seeing you in Beta 3 on 12/28/10
