Awesome trailer. Almost makes me want to play PvE. For a second. Now, where's my PvP content?

a 20 man PvE raid dungeon?

Really?

This is exciting to people? I just.... I just don't understand.

No, not gameplay wise. I like the trailer. That's all.

Anything more than 10 people becomes an exercise in cat herding.  What a stupid idea.  Getting 20 people to do anything in unison is an incredibly frustrating endeavor.  I have no concept of who might enjoy this thing beyond the rewards that it offers.

Only if you don't have collection of people who are motivated to do this content.  I really enjoy doing this content with 19 other people on a regular basis.

Didn't want to start a new thread, but apparently RIFT has north of 600,000 subs currently and nearing their 1 millionth box sold to consumers (not retailers).

It is pretty sad that they will have done 1.2 and 1.3 in the time it took WoW to do 4.2.

Cool trailer.

I probably won't see the new content but I'm really impressed at the pace of the content Trion has added since launch, as well as the quality.  Really glad the pve folks are getting something, as I sense the raiders are getting itchy for new stuff.

I hope they release some new pvp stuff next time.

And it's not like they are balance and bug fix patches, each one has added major features like wardrobe and LFD along with new content.

PvP definitely needs some love.  Some new warfronts, kill off the premade vs PUG bullsh*t and lets PUGS fight PUGS then add some purposeful world pvp and Ill stick around a while.

Was really hoping for some PvP in 1.3, but obviously my demographic is not paying the bills for this game.  Sadly my entire guild has gone into hibernation waiting for something more than the current BG and useless world PvP system.  I suppose now we wait for GW2.

Granted I only played this game for like 3 weeks, and sporadically at that, but to me this game seemed to have almost limitless PvP potential. That is, if only they would foster it from the general bullshit of CCs wrecking everything (from what I've heard they have made HUGE steps towards this), and of course gear gap, and the consequences that result.

Look, I'm not going to lie to you, I don't have a magic bullet to fix newbs getting stomped while still allowing PvPers to develop their toons through gear, but letting fully geared and leveled PvP toons queue with their like friends to harvest people new to the game is obviously not the right decision.
