This is strictly a questions for naysayers. Understand I'm not saying DF will or will not come out and this isn't a debate about whether it will or will not. IF Darkfall comes out, would you be willing to play if, eventhough you spent all your time naysaying? OR would you not play it in spite that you were wrong?
I don't want to hear answers like "OH well it's never coming out so I won't have to make that decision" and all those other lame answers "smart" people try and give to show that they are unmoving in their stand. Leave that at the door, this is totally hypothetical.
IF the game hit shelves and IF the game was playable, then yeah I would give it a go. Why the hell not? I love games.
I don't hold out much hope for it anymore however. Especially after I found this video interview with a DFO top developer describing what he does.

If they release it (some day) and if it's a good game, damn right I'd play it.
obviously you cant relize the investors have seen the game so to keep funding would mean there not lieing: )
Investors don't "keep investing". They hand you a wad of cash coupled with an agreement upon completion of the task they invested in. Not many investors keep handing you wads of cash after the initial agreement, generally you already have an ideal in place about how much total money you need for a project.
Also, there is no evidence of what any investors have seen. They could have seen a simple game demo where some models moved around on a single tiny island. They could have seen a full functioning client, complete with online access and server function. I doubt it, because if they could have shown investors that much they would have shown a member of the gaming media as well.
FACT: You have to go to the investors. Gaming media will often come to you, especially when your project already has such widespread interest on the internet. The gaming media NEED stories, and big ones. I would call a fully functioning DF client big news. Especially if they delivered on even half of what they promised.
its called a strict nda pretty obvious there there alot of stuff you dont relize about AOc either how much there pr has lied to its fan base heh
It is obvious from this thread you have not researched MMO development or any MMO game.
When there are actual beta testers there are always rumors and NDA "breaking" sites. always. If you know where to look and who to talk to they are quite easy to find. There is nothing about DF out there that has been confirmed. The fact that it does not exist pretty much proves that no one outside of the company (sans some abstract "fans") has ever seen the game other then through static media (pictures and movies).
Even if the game does not come out this year, there will be new fans to take up the flag of blind faith in DF. Many of the critics on these boards were former fans, myself included. I am still a fan of what DF is suppose to be, I just don't believe Aventurine can deliver. They will release the game, but I doubt it will live up to the hype Tasos has built about it.
thats why professional beta tesers dont do that i have researched plenty and guess what the way othere do there pr is bullcrap
I think most people like the idea of darkfall, idea beeing the keyword. Nobody is saying they don't want it to come out. I for one would play it if they bring a game that has all they promise with more or less up to date graphics. Not going to happen tho.
where do you get your info?

I realize that everyone stopped listening to your drivel a while ago, but this changes nothing. If you're gonna have strong opinions, at least have the balls to continue to use your real forum identity.

Tasos is like John Smedly only 100 x worse and without any products.
Those are big IF's.

In the interest of getting back on topic...
I would give DFO a shot if it ever gets released and they offered a trial.
