RIFT Account Security Measures

[Mar 19, 2011, 1:58 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

An Account Security Discussion Thread on the RIFT Forums indicates that an exploit in the authentication system for Trion World's MMORPG has been fixed, after it was recently discovered that it was possible to login to accounts without even knowing the proper username or password. This combines with a newly implemented coin lock feature that required further authentication for attempts to login to accounts from a location significantly different from previous logins to address instances of account hijacking. Thanks Game Genus, where they have further reporting on the circumstances surrounding all this.

Not awesome by any means. Also they are already nerfing and patching classes according to the cry baby community. WoW 2.0 here we go!

They are not nerfing anything do to "Crybabies"

The biggest bug that has been found in the classes is there is a coding error which allows Paragons to make a targets armor 0% By putting 1 point into an ability. And there is a problem with chain stuns.

Other than that it's standard class balancing which needs to happen now that more people are playing the game at 50 and finding ways to be cheesey, if this didn't happen they wouldn't be on the ball and worthy of the praise we're giving them for this game.

Keep trolling though. You'll get better at it eventually.
