Vote/Petition - Change the looks of Rifts

When i first saw the visuals of the Rifts, i was kind of disappointed, because i hoped they would use the portals can be seen in GStar 07 Trailer.

I don't really like the new one, its kind of a poor quality version of it, it simply doesnt fit into the environment. It has no stone-frames, frameless, looks like a simple colored dot or a splash.

So here i'd like to create a poll about that, which portal is the best looking and which would you like to see as a Rift - no matter what was its original purpose or origin.

Current one - G*07 one - Or should they use one similar to the following scenery element:?

The third one behind the blue armored char - In the game its not a portal but a nice floating circle.

Current one:

G*07 Trailer one

(+ animation)

Personally, I would accept the current one if it would have a frame like the G*07 one has - or any frame.

NOTE:
Theres a possibility that the g*07 portals are implemented as well, as Abyss portals, still the current continent-continent portals are not ok - at least for me.
NOTE2: Since the real testing of the Rifts will be in CBT3, theres a small chance that this look is only temporary, but im still curious about your opinions!

Ha ha, everyone likes the G*07 trailer one so far. XD

Don't see the current one...

Portals have always been that way, back in Gstar 07 rifts were in the pvp demo and they looked exactly like they looked during CBT 2, the video image is showing a player-opened portal that takes you to the abyss.

Anyways I don't see anything wrong with the look of rifts during CBT 2, its a breach between the worlds, not a mystic magic thing, it looks like something that would absorb you, instead of something you open. Imho it fits well

Isn't gstar video portal a player made one?

Remember the old video of raid vs drums boss? Some player open the same looking portal.

lyankyj · 05-22-2008, 05:21 PM

yes, the g* portal similar to the one the chanter opened in 06vids.

But its not the point of the thread.

The question is which portal is the best looking and which would you like to see as a Rift - no matter what was its original purpose.

Erm... I think I'm misunderstanding something here.

The current one is a rift that occurs randomly.
The G* one is a spell from the sorcerer (CBT1 class introduction video). So I think both are ingame and it's fine that they look different?

Edit: Saw your posting now

Now I understand ^^

Terpsichore · 05-22-2008, 05:33 PM

I like the current one.

Yeah but, it's kinda too simple...

G*07> looking good babe

Calindor · 05-22-2008, 06:44 PM

current one looks awesome :S

Blazze889 · 05-22-2008, 07:29 PM

I voted for the G07 one, but I would also like to state that I would not mind this being left alone so more important things can be done

Reitei · 05-22-2008, 07:39 PM

I think the current portal is fine, considering its purpose and origin. If you want a gateway style/player opened rift they could possibly implement that for some reason. It could be activated via some sort've reagent. Thats off topic

I'm just sticking with the current, because i think its appropriate.
