After dumping my MiFi and getting a local wifi provider (yes, I finally found one!), I'm back online with decent speeds. And ...
Yes, I am playing Rift©. Or, I should say, I'm downloading and patching Rift©. Unfortunately, so far I've gotten to play for under 5 minutes after the initial all day download of the digital version and the subsequent all day/all night patching of the game afterward. But, I do have to say that Trion Worlds, Inc. has excellent customer support response times. I wrote to Trion Worlds, Inc. customer support this morning, after I logged on to the game client and saw another patch waiting for me. The response from customer support (aside from the first "we've received your request" auto email) came to my email box in under 20 minutes. I think that's a record time for me with customer support responses! Bravo, Trion Worlds!! It was to the point and left me with mixed feelings. I'll post it here and post my rewrite of it. If the response had been written in a different way I would have been happier to receive it, especially since it wasn't just my internet connection. It was also the fact that 8gb of patching (which is the size of the initial download too) was a bit much. ***EDITED....... "but unfortunately we are not able to issue you any more free time because of your internet connection, which we are not responsible for." My rewrite: We realize that some players will experience delays in downloading due to the speed of their internet connections, however we are unable to extend your free time. It's the same yet said in a way that isn't off-putting. Here I am, always the grammarian. At least I try to be. Though there aren't any flagrant grammar errors, the tone of the statement changes with the rewrite. Maybe I'm just splitting hairs. ***EDITED.... It's ok. I didn't think I'd get them to extend my free time but I was hoping. Even so, I thought I'd make my thoughts/feelings known to them. Rift© was a great game in beta and I'm certain that it will be a great game now that it's been released. I haven't been excited about a new game in a long time. Rift© offers a new flavor of gameplay with a familiar MMORPG feel. I can't wait, I can't wait! ... Ah, the patch has finished. Now to finally play Rift©! ********* Rift © 2011 Trion Worlds, Inc.
