So, as we all know theres a major update this morning for the game. That being the case, I have to be in to work early. I drive in from a city which is about an hour to an hour and a half commute. Im racing to work this morning and the highway is backed up at a few points, so Im a bit behind. Yes, I was speeding, and of all the mornings I got pulled over.



Im freaking out and my heart is pounding, as I just dont need a ticket right now, and not to mention the fact that my wife would kill me. The cop comes up to my window and is writing something. He asks to see my license and registration and for me to turn my car off. I was just honest with him, and I said that I was really sorry and I work for a video game company that was releasing a patch for a gazillion people at 8AM. He asked what the game was called and I said RIFT. He got a weird look on his face and said, Are you Guardian or Defiant? I said Defiant, and he said, Get your *** to work.



I have to say, though it scared the hell out of me, this was pretty sick and something the likes of which Ill never see again. It was nice to see that our game has had that much impact.



I cringe to think that had I said Guardian, I might be in prison right now doing hard time.



Long story boring, apparently players should be careful who they mouth off to in-game.



If you are the officer and you are out there, please contact me with a PM as to what kind of car I was driving, and I would love to return the favor.
