realized I was in Warhammer2 and quit to re-subscribe to daoc. Just lost house and had to get it all back and set up again but meh. Think alot that tried it will be coming back soon. Still don't see why new MMOs do not copy DAOCs PVP set up of 3 realms and all the other stuff. PVP in RIFT as it was in War is just boring and lame.

I haven't tried it. I reviewed the pvp description and asked myself "What's the point??" I concluded that the point was to spawn a boss so that your faction can kill it for cheesy trinkets. LOL. If I wanted that garbage, I'd play WoW or LOTRO. Pretty game, but pvp is worthless.

It took you a month to realize Rift is WAR 2? What took you so long? I figured that out after about 30 seconds of playing.

Same, my brother and I played the beta to lvl 6 or 7 and tried a battle grounds before we decided it sucks. Buggier and less balanced pvp than warhammer and a huge task quest grind for levels. No immersion and felt like a theme park. Definitely a warhammer/wow ripoff, and rifts are a worse version of warhammer public quests.

And this is one of the positives of having beta tests of the 'finished product' that are reasonably long. WAR as released did not have a beta test. People can try it, decide they don't like it and give it a miss.
No angst ridden posts about being misled by people talking the game up and mega patches changing stuff before the full launch.
I agree that Rift is a 'theme park'; I still feel it won't hold hardcore WoW players but it isn't a straight WoW clone - I see a lot of EQ and even DAoC in it. (And yes just like cakes all games use the same basic ingredients it is in the mix and the cooking that they differ).
Rift however is a well done game and deserves credit for being properly finished. Saying you don't like it and it doesn't hold a candle to DAoC in your opinion - that's fine; saying it is buggy etc. - nah. We need companies to release better quality games.

Not sure why anyone would copy Warhammer considering how badly it did.

Rift isn't a Warhammer copy, it's a WoW copy.
