RIFT bringing out a new authentication service today - but not yet
Authenticators are one of the most popular forms of account security around, giving players an extra layer of defense against hackers and keyloggers. RIFT has been dealing steadily with account security issues since launch, so the upcoming authenticator service is no surprise to players. Using a digital authenticator service, players will very soon be able to use their Android mobile devices for authentication services -- but carefully note the "soon," as the service isn't yet ready for prime time. Currently, using the authenticator will prevent players from logging in, as the code for using said authentication isn't yet in place. A new launcher will be put into place for the game later today, allowing players with Android devices use of the authentication service. While the current release is only for the Android platform, code for the iOS is being finalized, meaning that iPhone and iPad users won't be left out in the cold. So if you're playing RIFT and want to have a little more random number to go with your login, you'll soon be able to do just that. (But not quite yet.) [Thanks to Puremallace for the tip!]
RIFT beta six is coming up and we've got your key!
Yesterday we told you all about the impending arrival of RIFT's sixth closed beta event. If you want to check it out and don't have a key yet, we've got you covered! The folks at Trion kindly provided us with a handful of very special keys to the RIFT beta event to share with you, our readers. Each key, rather than holding access for one person, carries 50 uses -- so each code represents beta access for 50 Massively readers. We'll be handing these keys out on various RIFT Massively posts, Twitter, and Facebook throughout this week, but we're also sharing five of them right now! Just choose one of the codes below, visit the RIFT beta page to use it, and you're all set. The event begins at 10:00 a.m. PST on February 4th -- good luck!
