Maybe they hit some problems during closed beta? They need more time to fix it, its a small company.

And thats not a opinion.

And yes! DF is a joke in the MMO Industry.

Ok why cant Tasos just come out and say:

"Hey DF fans this game is not ready. We thought it would be ready by december but it is not. We are striving to give our fans the game they so desperatly want, and we want it to be in the best possible shape when it does release. We are now aiming  for a                       , release date. Thank you for your patients."

What is so bad about saying something like that? Why string your fanbase along? Why give out bias beta opinions? Why keep your fanbase in the dark for months at a time?

I am starting to question the sanity of people who blindly support DF with faith alone.  But of course for the nut jobs out there they still have a week to start open beta and end it before early December is over.

I would like to play DF but I will not buy it until its been out  a good month atleast, so I have ample time to see if adventurine has mislead its fans like Funcom did with AoC.

I also agree on this.

If Aventurine have runned into some problems during closed beta and need more time to fix it...just say so. Funcom said everything was ok with AoC......and look what happend.

If Darkfall succed, Aventurine will not get as much credit. Other people will quickly step in and take all credit. Lets face it, Aventurine is not made of stuff that legends are made of.

Dont belive me? Just take a look at other great stuff, someone else always get credits.

Ok!

I ¨ll post it again.....this was the introduction to a review.....not the review itself.

 

Part 1 of the "review itself" has already been posted, so you might want to rephrase that a little bit.

Holy shit...you are right!

eum.....that was only part one...wait until we have more parts then : )

Ok!

I ¨ll post it again.....this was the introduction to a review.....not the review itself.

Remember that this was only the introduction. The review havent been posted yet.

Cant think of when a introduction made so much fuss lately : ) Be patient.

He he, really funny. And a beta review at same time.

1. Gameplay

2. Content (not quests, real content)

3. Graphics.

4. Community  (Nothing can ruin a nice game as much as the retards playing it)

5. Responsive Devs (we dont need another NGE)

Quests can be really fun.

But you should always have a choice if you wanna do it or not.  If you have to do them or everyone else have done them....i see no point in having them there.

Since only Fallen Earth and Darkfall is the only sandbox MMOs in the list, i have to go with Darkfall.

I think the mainstream hype died because TCoS is a honest good game. There is nothing to argue about it. The devs have not claimed anythingspecial. The fans have visited the development team and talked.

Everything is so great. And human nature hate when there is nothing to fight about. Example.....Darkfall or the AoC launch.

any one else notice slight lag and offset hitboxes at :30 and :45?

 

Not sure it's lag or offset hitbox. It's most probably that the hitbox is bigger than the player model. That's a much bigger concern than the bad animations.

yea i think its just because the hit box is a tad bigger than that model but for an ork it will just fit

i dont see a problem with it unless it effects the combat plus the size of the hit box can be adjusted

It is seen clearly in 0:45, it doesn't look like lag to me, the woman is never in that spot and yet the goblin hits her, might be what you say about the hitbox, I don't know about that stuff.

Now... can you guys give an explanation why they haven't fixed something so obvious and appearantly so easy to fix, before showing it to the press? And before open beta? Because I can't explain it, except thinking that they are using premade tools and 1) they have no idea how to modify it or 2) it can't be changed.

The devs have talked about the "extended weapon reach" before. Its part of the testing. We have seen it in other videos.

Im just looking for a sandbox MMO. I dont play themepark games.

So i must say gameplay. Either Darkfall, Fallen Earth or Earthrise.

Good thread OP.

But at same time i wonder. We have seen the female running anamtion many other times. And none have cared. This time we see it and the whole world goes nuts : )

The animation did however look weitd. And i wonder what made it look weird? Lack of clothes, heavy weapon, poor animation, wounded or no armour?

Ok, i had no were to go regarding this. I hate Star Trek (Star Wars rules), but that trailer made me wanna go and see a Star Trek movie for the first time in my life.  It semed to have some balls : )

I have to watch it again. And this movie cant be that bad for the MMO either. All Star Trek fans will be in for a wild ride.

(i know i miss spelled ST, have edited it now)

Its funny to me how so many people are eagerly waiting for this game thinking it will be something huge, a real pvp game, skills etc.. etc..yet

 

All people saw about this game were couple of really lousy gameplay if you could even call it gameplay videos, animations look terrible totaly robotic, 100 of spells, none knows anything about those spells or how good gameplay they produce, none knows anything worthy about the game yet and the game is overhyped on this website so i really wonder why are you so fucked up about this game because i am cool as a beer waiting to see what will come up from this, dont epect anything nor i would ever hype this game on mmorpg.com, why you expect this game will be great? I am really curious

 

 

 

Im not sure where you are getting your "overhyped" from.  The only hype that darkfall is getting is from the darkfall forums itself, but why wouldn't we be talking about darkfall here?

I myself am not expecting this game to be something huge.  Im looking for a game that will keep me interested for a long period of time and this is what I think Darkfall will do. 

I think the majority of the people who think we think this game is the greatest thing since sliced bread are the trolls you see posting in here every minute.  If it wasn't for them, this forum wouldn't be very active.  

 

He's getting "overhyped" from teh same place everyone else is.

You can't go on any forum about MMORPGs and mention anything, without someone postings things like

Yea, that's might be a good game when it releases, but not as good as Darkfall.

Oh, you want that feature? You're definitely looking for Darkfall, so check it out.

Oh, you want this feature? Darkfall is going to do that best, without a doubt.

Sandbox is what you're looking for? Darkfall is going to be the best sandbox ever.

Players skills? Yea, Darkfall has them.

You want PvP? Darkfall has the best PvP system ever.

AoC, Vanguard, WoW, EQ2, War, they suck. Why? Not as cool as Darkfall.

And on, and on, and on, and on.

That is the over hype. Not just this forum, but EVERY forum around about MMORPGs people say, that game sucks, it's not as good as Darkfall will be. Srsly.

You are absolutely right.

But its not Aventurine that does the hype. And thats different from example WAR and AoC. There it was the companys that did the better part of the hype.

Yeah, you are right there are some really good "themepark" MMOs, regardiung grouping and so on. I was mostly referring to the ongoing trend from developers promising us that we can solo thier game.

Darkfall isnt special. Its just a sandbox MMORPG. When i thinks about it, its a real MMORPG. Not one of those "single player online" things we mostle see nowdays.

And 90% of all MMO players today dont even know what the hell sandbox is! Thats what makes it.... special.

Isn't sandbox a mission to get to level 10 and enter the tier 2 map ? with bigger monsters to beat ? and better loot ? 

However if i reach endgame i will own the noobs in starting area lol will have max level and best loot from instance raids..

 

ROFL

I think you nailed every feature that a sanbox dont have : )

Sarcasm detected.

I would very much like perma death in a MMO. But to not make it to hard for the mainstream gamer....i should put it in special areas in the gameworld.

This would be areas that noone is forced to enter. Ofcourse you need a sandbox MMO to begin with. No levels, no classes, no xp. 

And i also dont understand why you shouldent be able to get "away with murder"? Life is not fair. No point in trying to add fairness into a MMO either.
