Go ahead and try it chump. Those graphics are equal to/better than AoC and any other MMO in existance right now.
What world are you living in?
Darkfall graphics are terribly outdated and poorly done plain and simple. This is not an opinion. It's a FACT.
Did you know that MMORPG graphics are balanced between performance and eye candy in a totally different way, than the usual single player game would be?
I've had to do this comparison already once, I guess you missed it. So, here we go:
From all the videos I've seen, darkfall is absolutely gorgeous when animated.
Some of the screenshots are very nice I think, but in game, with the grass blowing in the wind, clouds rolling past in the sky and the lighting already mentioned, the game is very nice. And it's actually well animated.
These models are not created by someone just learning to model. That's ridiculous. Have you ever tried modeling at all? I can tell you for a fact that these are well done models, with a careful and conscious graphics/performance balance.
From all the videos I've seen, darkfall is absolutely gorgeous when animated.
No it looks like what it is when it's animated - a 6 year old game and engine. do not EVER put the word "gorgeous" and darkfall together because you instantly lose all credibility. Darkfall is one of the worste looking MMORPG's ever made. The textures are horrid and low resolution. The modelling work is sub par at best. The lighting is bad. The color pallette is bad. The animations are terrible. These models are not created by someone just learning to model. That's ridiculous. No it isnt ridiculos. It's 100% FACT. Those models are NOT professionally done. They are totally amateur at best. I gurantee you that if you would give the 3DSMAX meshes of those models to a Blizzard artist he would laugh his ass off.
I already proved your "100% fact" wrong, so how come you still keep on singing the same mantra?

Hi,
You couldn't find an uglier AoC screenshot, could you ?
AoC as it flaws but graphics wise it is top-notch, there is no doubt about that.

Darkfall is one of the worste looking MMORPG's ever made. The textures are horrid and low resolution. The modelling work is sub par at best even for low poly modelling. The lighting is bad. The color pallette is bad. The animations are terrible. These models are not created by someone just learning to model. That's ridiculous. No it isnt ridiculos. It's 100% FACT. Those models are NOT professionally done. They are totally amateur at best. The engine doesn't even use Normal mapping for christs sake which is a completely standard thing in this day and age and allows you to make high detail models with ver low poly counts.. I gurantee you that if you would give the 3DSMAX meshes of those models to a Blizzard artist he would laugh his ass off. You want to see what professional modelling and texture work looks like?

Keep fooling yourself into thinking they actually look good. They look terrible
Hi, You couldn't find an uglier AoC screenshot, could you ? I just took a random screenshot of AoC from the first page after I made a search with the keyword "Age of Conan screenshot" AoC as it flaws but graphics wise it is top-notch, there is no doubt about that. PS : huge pics.
Resize your pictures next time. Those screenshots look pretty decent indeed, but Darkfall graphics are definitely not bad either when compared.
Anyway, graphics don't matter that much at all. Instead, if you have too good and heavy graphics, it will most likely turn some people down.

I am Troll because Darkfall graphics look like complete amateur outdated garbage?
Keep foling yourself into thinking they actually look good. They look god aweful.
Yep for me you're a troll. Can't change that at all. But I will be nice to you, So I wont hurt your self-esteem.

The graphics in that screenshot look indeed pretty outdated. Did you notice, it reads 2006 in the lower left corner? The graphics of Darkfall have came a long way since that year.
Darkfall graphics will be suite for the gameplay style it will have. Would be no point of putting more computerpower on graphics instead of gfameplay. Thats just dumb. After all its a MMORPG.
If i want sole graphics, i watch WALL-E on a HD TV.
But to get back on topic. It doesnt matter what server starts up first. We all will play it anyway. I bet EU players have joined US servers in other games, so US players joining EU servers is not a big deal.
Sorry for the huge pics, I am not familiar with embedded pictures nor the board options. Your advice as been dully noted.
As I said in my previous post I didn't said that DF graphics were bad, actually they are decent but not equal nor better than AoC as stated by Trollbat :
Those graphics are equal to/better than AoC and any other MMO in existance right now. It's not Darkfall's fault your taste is bad.

Very good. Yes, that is a professionally done model. However, it looks to have a pretty high poly count, and thats will little to no armor on. Now lets examine darkfall, where people will actually wear armor to protect themselves instead of to look like a whore you might see at medieval times. That adds a lot of polies, and in huge battles you can't have these kinds of models running around without slowing the best systems to a crawl. What is your point? I stand by my earlier statement. Darkfall's models are not amateur. They are designed with performance in mind.
And if you think the animations are terrible, you either need to stop watching the pre alpha footage or you need to have your eyes checked.
You should take a look at some of the VIDEOS of age of conan. Then you'll understand how horrible Darkfall graphics reall are.
Ah, now you're moving to the video department. I'm not saying that the Darkfall graphics would clearly beat Age of Conan's graphics at all, I'm just saying that they definitely are not outdated, either.
Let's see if they deliver the comprehensive video, so we could get a bit more recent grasp on the graphics. Anyway, gameplay over graphics any day. There's a reason I'd rather play UO, than most of the recent MMORPGs.
Just watch this video and you'll see how terribly outdated Darkfall graphics really are.
We already have the Darkfall Sites and Cities fly by to compare it to which is the best Darkfalls engine can do.
There is absolutely NO COMPARISON between AoC graphics and Darkfalls.
You're trying to compare a direct X 10 engine with all the newest FX and professional modelling work to an Engine that is like 5 years old or more with sub par modelling work.

ok then lets take a look at a 2008 one shall we?
What the hell is this supposed to be? Look at the tree models. LOL!!! Look at the horrid texture work. The terrible color pallette.
This is NOT professional graphics work.
Asheron's Call 2 which was released in 2002 had completely superior graphics to what Darkfall has right now. That's how bad it is.

I dont get it, why not show a pic from another realtime combat MMO instead of all those auto attack MMOs graphics.
AoC looks great indeed. But it lacks in gameplay and stability. For me, it feels like a multiplayer module from a single player game.
Darkfall don't have the best gfx, but hopefully the gameplay will be better.

Darkfall is not trying to compete with AoC graphically. I admit it looks better, but my computer couldn't run that anyway.
