    This has to be a joke. This is some kind of sick social experiment.
    I wish I never even heard of Darkfall.



     

    You only have to stop to get better.

    Just walk away, and it will cease to exist for you.

    But.. You can't... Can you?

    This hate isnt about DF, it's about you.

    ahh, and btw..

    Yep, these SS look just fine to me.

    They seem to be treading a nice line bewteen cartoon and realism stylistically, which appeals to me personally, and look immersive enough to satisfy, while keeping the system demands low enough for PvP.

    In fact, must say, it's looking ideal right now.

    The last thing I want is another beautiful mess like AoC.

    I don't want another Age of Conan either. I think that is the only thing the whole MMO community can agree on.

    The point of my post was not "screenshots suck!". They do look outdated but I don't care about graphics, only gameplay. And I've seen many very nice screenshots of DF so it's difficult to say what the graphics will be like.

    My point was: why do they keep feeding us this same old crap? Who cares about screenshots? Everyone knows DF is not supposed to be about graphics, so why do we keep getting only screenshots? I want to know about the content and features. I want to see how the combat, skills or crafting works. I want to see a massive pvp battle. I want to see something other than a boring screenshot by a cartoonist.

    Much better than the most popular mmorpgs?

    You live in a world built with lego blocks? Perfect straight edges with shining smooth surfaces everywhere? Gimme a fcking break.

    The graphics look like they were done by amateurs without an ounce of artistic talent in them. Here's a clue for you, having high resolution and polygon count is not equivalent to "good graphics".



     

    haha.. just goes to show that you know NOTHING about graphics at all.. DFO is LOW POLY because of large scale battles, and you just said that just because DFO have lots of poly's the graphics arent good.

    busted!

    liar, you just tipped your hand and all I saw was a "I-am-a-troll-that-will-say-I-want-dfo-to-succseed-but-in-realety-I-am-happier-if-it-fails-becase-then-I-can-continue-my-pathetic-trolling"-flush..

    No but you'd expect them to look better than games built 6 years ago. 

    They don't even use simple bump mapping or the now standard normal mapping on objects and models for christs sake which gives things 100x more detail without adding anymore polygons or affecting performance.

    This games engine looks like a dinosaur.

    The graphics look beyond terrible for a game coming out in 2009.

    But beyond that.. this "review" is a total joke. What the hell is this supposed to be?  She talks about fucking shadows 1 month before the launch of a game that is supposed to have more features in it than WoW did?

    Get fucken real. This game looks like a total overhyped disaster.

    Hype-level  8.40



     

    oh.. yes, thankyou care to try again?

    You just showed that you know nothing of what you speak

    May I suggest that you take a nap then?

    Is it just me or are these Darkfall fanbois running out of material?

    I mean just look at the 3 posts above.

    I hope this is no indication of how the future Darkfall community will be like.

    it all comes down to if darkfall has a smooth start or it will fail like aoc cause of todays community people will still play if the graphics are even worse but they look decent to me for a mmorpg at least

    Nileq posted with the same kind of quality the people he quoted posted with.  I'm sure he could have written a well thought out and informative comment... but for what?  It's not like they care.

    In my eyes it seems like the people who come to this board trying to flame the game are running out of material.  In every thread I'm guranteed to read something about poor graphics, vaporware/vaporfall, and/or "lolnopreorderz".

    Great to see another revolutionary next generation feature demonstrated, shadows you can turn on and off.

    But no Goblins this time, again, so I’m not a happy camper, hopefully next time.

    Good to finally start hearing stuff about the starting areas and the starting quests, I was worried that they would continue to only showcase the major features, content and game play and ignore the early game experience and the basics.

    I think 9/10 fanbois on this site would not play Darkfall. They would maybe try it, decide they don't really like it, and go on to posting about the next game that's supposed to be the Mecca of MMORPGs.

    The joke is on the people who followed this for 7 years.  lol

    The fanboys have misguided anger. Instead of taking it out on the right people - the developers..  they choose to unleash it on the general public when they point out what this game actually is.

    Crap.

    Shit.

     

    I don't know if the game will be shit. I do know it can't possibly live up to the standards that some people think it will on these forums.

    It would have to be the best MMORPG ever released, and so well designed and balanced, that even though it offers FFA PvP, every player from WoW would quit to play Darkfall, because it's so awesome.

    “For the next few days I won't be able to do long updates (friends visiting),”

    Come on, why don’t you just say the dog ate your PC?

    I hope this is wont be a “Tasos” home brand “next few days“.

    Perhaps those friends visiting are Tasos and Claus themselves ?

    My hunch is there’s not much more left to talk about anyway, shadows on and off and the precise moment when characters display their names is really scraping the barrel as it is already.

    But some more about the Goblins would be immensely appreciated though, please tell us what is the quest reward for gathering 4 r_Goblins Axes’s?, you cant leave us on tender hooks like this.

    Back from your latest ban Polarization?

    Nice conspiracy theory, by the way. Maybe Tasos and Claus are visiting Gianna to discuss the next phase of their Torque-engine mock-up Greek-government funded decade-long scam, the one you think is happening? Keep digging Polar, the truth is out there!

    Also, it's tenter hooks.

    Do you have any reason for a personal grudge, let alone attacks, on her? Do you know her that good really?

    Gianna is nothing but a gamer like us, a veteran MMO player known to many as such, volunteering to share her individual impression of the game as she is seeing fit.

    While questioning her professionalism or the content of her review is perfectly ok, openly labeling her as a liar isn't. This doesn't contribute anything but an insight into your own lack of manners and maturity.

    Don’t assume I’m taking this as seriously as you might be.

    Some people might appreciate my attempts at humour or as in your case they might not, no biggie.

    After all its only my opinion about the topic at hand, nothing to get worried about now is it, or is it?

    Well, regard my little rant as resolved as well then, - I just didn't manage to perceive your post as the said attempt at humor somehow, - my bad maybe

    The dog ate my PC. Good one.

    Was it just me, or did shadows on, look the same as shadows off? Perhaps it wasn't a particularly good area to show the difference.

    What a great finale in your 5 post streak. Next time just cut and paste quotes in a single post, saves you the trouble of looking like a caffeinated child that feels the need to directly reply to every-single-post.

    Anyway, I haven't been posting/trolling this forum as long as some of you; but given the amount of game mechanics promised how does this not look fishy to everyone?  They promised the moon and are showing you starter areas and goblins.  If it is free then I will try it, but some of you are just blindly defending nothing for all you know.

    There is no need to label her a liar because there is nothing of substance in her "beta review".
