i'm gonna try a mage type toon. i hear they have really slow casting speed though. there some kind of warrior caster hybrid soul but i tend to regret rolling mdps in mmo's and it's one intersting soul in an archetype filled with stuff i don't want to do.

but yeah i was getting 471kbps from teh launcher yesterday. and the whole logging in to patch thing is always annoying imho, just because i like to patch up the game and then pay for game time. it's actually one of the factors holding me back from resubbing to STO right now.

Ask about the log in thing on the forums, the devs are actually really responsive to the community - and if others feel the way you do i imagine they would change it (unless they are planning on it anyway).

There is a beta event from the 25th to the 28th if anyone wants to try it. Look on their Facebook page in the comments for a VIP key that works. It took about 10 minutes to get a beta invitation e-mail.

(You can find it yourself easily. I do not wish to spam for them. :D)

looking forward to the beta tomorrow, already bored of cata so hoping this is good.

no idea what class to play though, haven't even looked at the classes or anything for this game really. playing around with this http://rift.zam.com/en/stc.html though, NECROS!

The great thing is that you don't need to choose a class based on their name, as the souls deviate from the connotation the names usually hold - like the fact that rogues can tank and play support.

i'll be playing a limited amount of time this beta to specifically test how combat feels with the animations the game has. i think this is my biggest area of concern with the game because combat animations have a huge effect on combat and gameplay in that without good ones you are basically stuck staring at the UI to know what is actually happening in the game, and the videos i've watched of rift combat so far have basically been the player waving his arms at something until it dies.

Am I too early to the party, or they have some difficulties/delays? Announcement says that the party starting at 18:00 GMT.

It's now 18:14, and I can't get in: http://img258.imageshack.us/img258/5233/rift.png

Mine says the same thing. I thought 10:00am PST was 1:00pm EST (which is where I am) unless they are having problems.

    • Sound Booster 1.13 Build 575

      By Copernic · Posted

      Sound Booster 1.13 Build 575 by Razvan Serea Increase volume on your laptop. Boost the volume of even very quiet speakers. Raise volume above maximum. Letasoft Sound Booster can be used as an extra amplifier when the volume of the program you are listening to is too low for comfortable listening and you feel that your PC’s speakers can produce a louder sound. This can be the case when the audio or video has been recorded at the level below normal. Or, for example, when the other person’s microphone you are talking to on Skype, is not working properly. There can be a plenty of other reasons why the sound is being too quiet and there is not much you can do about it except buy external speakers. Sound of any application that is being played in the system can be amplified up to 500%. Letasoft Sound Booster can raise volume of programs like web browsers, on-line communication software (Teams, Discord, Zoom), any kind of media player or games. Simply put, volume of virtually any program that can play any sound in PC, can be boosted to a comfortable level with Letasoft Sound Booster. You can control current volume with the pop-up slider from the system tray. Alternatively, you can assign system-wide hot keys for increasing and decreasing, and use them when you need to adjust volume Letasoft Sound Booster constantly monitors current gain level and prevents samples from clipping, thus reducing all major sound distortions.

      I own these and the normal QuietComfort ones from Bose. The QC are amazing and I want to love these, but for the life of me, I have a terrible time getting them attached to my ears.
