An MMO in development which I’ve been watching is Rift: Planes of Telara, it has some interesting idea’s and is worth a longer look than some of the other MMO’s in the works at the moment.
The company behind Rift is Trion Worlds and they have an interesting marketing ploy underway. A series of Rift based comic’s are to be released with the first couple (release 0 and 1), already available. Telara Chronicles is the name of the series and here comes the important bit…. issue 1 comes with a beta card while stocks last of course.
I’m not a comic fan and wouldn’t have the first clue where to get hold of a copy but it’s a nice idea to raise interest in the game and of course to sell comic’s, it’s a win either way you look at it.
If any of you manage to get one let me know, I expect pics of the beta card.
