I'd still like to see a hardware standalone authenticator option. battle.net has had this for quite some time as a keychain thing that pukes the code at you when you push a button. I'd probly actually put a rift keychain on my keys =p hell package em with collector's edition boxes and offer them for sale on the website.
i can agree with this post, you need openGL ES 2.0 to run the lootables and most reasonable priced smart phones don't have that capability i use the app and would like to have some kind of web app so i can participate in the lootables i understand the app is in beta but it would be a good idea to include a web app even just as an extension for chrome.
it's not that we're complaining we can't purchase a smart phone, it's that some of us have smart phones that can't run the lootables, also there happen to be people that think $150 + for a phone is a ridiculous price and on top of that the "cheap" smart phone deals are usually on ****ty carriers like AT&T or Verizion so it's not just affording a nice phone it's more being able to afford a plan that supports these smart phones, and really if they say they are "all about the players" they should have a web app when this app exits beta stage to actually make it a viable option for the player base, also what we consider "smart phones" have only been around for 10 years so it's not fair to assume every one can afford or has a smart phone, the personal computer would be a good metaphor for this.Originally Posted by Feore
lol wow im saying its not like its really that much loot
Fishing
Now that we have Fishing/Survivial.. I would like to see a lootable for that. Maybe I could win a lure... or algae or fish. Not sure how it would work but the idea of winning a lure sounds nice!
Bullet point 1: life is not fair
Bullet point B: I love this app, made about 10p right off the bat.
Bullet point 4: the picture from op didn't even show a winner.
Web app can be made by an intern in an afternoon.
life isnt fair but this complaining is such a first world problem.very annoying to be honest.
they should not have nerfed this but thats life,not the end of the world.work on getting a smartphone and be done with it because thats where cell phone technology is headed.
I don't understand how people can afford to buy Rift and a sub and not service like ST that costs roughly the same as a landline.
You can get the android developer software and throw up a phone emulator, download the app... etc... and such...This is a really good summary; I think there should be a web page that provides this functionality too, for the benefit of people who don't feel like using a tablet or whatever.
I mean, it's a web service already. Wouldn't be THAT hard to do an ajax front-end on it, right?
whether or not it'll connect is another story, heh.

The mobile version uses html- and ajax internally. There is no reason why a pc version wouldn't be doable in a day or two.
Meh, non-smartphone owners aren't missing much. A few ISS, some planarite and a devalued green artie or two a week maybe. What you are missing is the absolute mess it makes of your phone with the near constant force closes interrupting all your other apps, chats working incorrectly, zone event notifications only if you're looking at your phone screen at the time they pop up etc.
Until Trion brings the app out of Beta by fixing it, a happy smooth-running smartphone is a far, far higher priority than the tiny stipend of scratchcard stuff. I say this as someone who was really enthusiastic about the app in the first place, and who faithfully scratched off almost every card that refreshed in the 3 or so months I put up with it. Best thing I ever got was a rare artie that sold for 2 whole plat.
An emulated version might actually be more stable at this rate...

Gear and power items in the cash shop was my dealbreaker. It was a fun 2 years.
Unfair! Trion should let me play Rift without a computer!
This thread is irrelevant. Anyone can run the mobile app, not just smartphone users:

I can understand its biased.. But you directly increased the Rift Economy so you lose too now with raised prices for things you could of had at a fraction of the cost.
Congratulations your bummyness has benefited you immensely!
Keep in mind that people like me with Smart Phones are on contracts paying 70-100 a month so when you grow up get yourself a well paying job and take some responsibility you could have received these "benefits" too if you even call them benefits.
