We'll see shortly.  I will be stunned if this game is good.  It will go against all conventional wisdom based on its weird development cycle, the size of the studio, etc, etc.   Though......I can still hope that it will be.

From my experience, in order to actually make a mark, you have to break free of "conventional wisdom." They wanted to be revolutionary. You can't do that by following the same old drill as everyone else. Basically, following conventional wisdom won't get you very far (unless you are incredibly lucky, like 1 in 10million). You have to break away from what is accepted, or you end up just like everybody else. (And recently, devs following the standard path have come up lacking).

Here's to insanity, the drive of the inventor.

With the way Adventurine is handling their complete game, I don't see how anyone couldn't look at the situation from sarcastic-lenses. 

There's just no confidence from their end.  The only thing reassuring from Adventurine's end was the "in-game" video, which was largely edited, and the second video where the connection feed was lost at the end. (don't know the cause, still didn't look good)

Best thing they could do, would be to open up beta to include far more than the current 50 testers they have.  If the game's truly ready for a 2008 release, it should easily be ready for half of the community.

But whatever.  As long as they keep screwing this simple process up, I'll keep my cynical smile on.

You hit the nail with the hammer.

How can i trust a game that only allows 50 people into beta? Hell games in alpha have more players then that. Now i did read what the beta players said and to tell you the truth how can i trust that? Not saying i wont give Darkfall a try just saying that so far they have yet to show me any concrete info about this game. Now why should i play a game that keeps people out of the loop? Now i am sure a lot of people want to see this game succed but right now i really am unsure about this game.Now it would be nice if they released some unedited game play.

Whatever the case may be this game right now is just drawing me away instead of in.

First, we have absolutely no clue as to the number of people in beta atm.

Second, many games put up an NDA and try to keep people out of the loop.

Third, we do have a vid of unedited gameplay, the ADW vid.

40 more days till Darkfall Releases.

So this is directly pulled from you butt or you are incredible at predictions.

If it is the latter can you tell me who is going to win all the Football games this weekend.

 

Well here's the thing...

They are running out of nonsense so they just need to make it up.  Clearly zayne is making things up.

Especially with impending nda free beta stuff comming (see other thread) the skeptics/trolls/haters are stepping things up while they still can.

I didn't state that what I said was fact. Perhaps I should have made it clearer that it was my personal opinion.

I am basing my predictions on the comments from the Beta and my belief that there is a lot of work still to be done and I can't see it being ready in a few weeks time.

Realistically, less than that. Nothing happens in the last day weeks of the year, or if they're going to realise anything in Xmas week, or between Xmas and new year, then thats seriously silly....

So, really, 4weeks or 32 days.
