That would be a lot easier to read if it wasn't in Italian. I find it odd that they are having a beta key give away contest(only 1 key lol) a week or so after Open Beta was supposed to finish, and only a month before the game is supposed to be released...
I don't speak Italian, but running that post through an online translator tells me that the one beta account will be activated after the beta for journalists ends in January and before they open the beta to anyone else.
Could be faulty translation, I don't know. But that's what the BabelFish tells me.
Google's translation was a lot easier to read:
It is with great pleasure that we announce that Tasos gave us the willingness to put at stake beta account as a Christmas contest.
I know that many are in beta and is only one but you'll have to settle.
The beta will be drawn by lot among poster below.
The thread closes at midnight on 24 and 25 morning will be drawn by lot the lucky winner.
Do not fake or BANNA!
The mode of acccess to the beta will be the following:
- Access to the beta is just the start beta for journalists in January, before any other user on earth.

Fair enough. As I said, I don't speak the language, and just picked an online translator to run it through at random.
Personally, my MMO fix is currently satisfied, so Darkfall isn't on the radar for me at all. I just thought the topic was interesting. Sorry if there was any confusion from the faulty BabelFish I used.
This contest is the best Christmas present Aventurine could have given me. This thread is hilarous. I especially love all of the trolling being done by DarthRaiden.
Keep it up, your posts on this thread are the funniest I've read in weeks.
Thanks everyone!
"There is as yet insufficient data for a meaningful answer."
Here's how it works: Italian guys have a contest for a beta slot. Tasos is the one who chooses from the entries. Tasos chooses a family member or friend to enter the contest. Tasos then chooses family member/friend as lucky "contestant". Phony beta tester is suddenly granted the right to post his "review", which will be (*gasp*) positive and ecstatic.
Ya... I konw.. isn't it great!
"There is as yet insufficient data for a meaningful answer."
You know, I think I'm going to be sad if/when this game releases. These forums have been so entertaining for so many years.
Seriously though, I wish this game the best...but I just don't trust it. If I am reading this correctly...the unopen open beta starts in january some time, but release is January 22....
They have a contest for one unopen open beta slot, but only for italians who previewed the game supposedly to begin with.
dunno, feels shiesty to me. I'll give it 6 months after release and check back in on it, maybe. I doubt it will release in NA anyway. Not sure if I want to play on EU/Med servers.
What's going to be funny is the people that will be surprised by the amount of corruption in the game (when it releases of course). This whole DF Italians thing seems really fishy to me. The very first people who got a glimpse at it were 2 Italians from mmorpg.it The only person that has a semi-lifted NDA is Gianna who is Italian as well. Also personal friend of Tasos and Claus. Now they are offering a single beta key to the same people, mmorpg.it (aka Italians).
Don't get me wrong here, i got nothing against the Italian nation, i actually love their sexy women. But this whole love for "certain" people from Tasos and his team is rather strange. What's there to persuade me that the GM's are going to treat everyone the same way, when they don't before the game is released?
I won't be buying the game for at least a month or two.
Ive wondered about this myself. I guess they dont consider the Vatican City part of Italy, cause I doubt the Pope could get a beta invite.

Swap being the leader of one faith with no substantiating evidence for being a mere follower in another? Come on he'd have to be totally insane to become a believer in Darkfall and follow Tasos, besides as Pope he probably gets laid more often than the average DF fanbois.
OK that last comment was a bit uncalled for but I beg for the DEVs forgivness, the devil made me do it ... you know? Smedley!

i count to this moment 571 contestants many of which aren't part of the targeted community and just wanna grab the price and/or double posts of same posters ..how you come up with your number of 10+k ?

The administrator of Italian site asked for his posters to get the key ..MMORPG.com users mostly don't deserve it..
Wow thats what they said on that italian site?
Its what i am saying..but don't worry ..it is widely and well known were to put MMORPG.com ..
Its not surprise MMORPG.com didn't even got 1 to share ..
If you are going to be condescending... at least have a good reason. The fact that Aventurine released 1 beta key a month before release is comical. When have you ever heard of a game of any kind releasing 1 key for a site to give away? Say what you want, but this stunt does not reflect well on the company.
You post on here quite often so by showing your contempt for this site you are only showing contempt for yourself.
You not informed. MMORPGItalia.it got more keys.
The Admin of MMORPGItalia.it however - who don't disqualified himself by asking unfair questions recently in an interview - asked nicely Aventurineif it would be possible to use 1 of those for a site contest..in a random way...and because he asked nice he got a pleasent answer..
MMORPG.com probably missed the chance to put nice questions and to be helpful for the DF Community here and instead wasted their questions with wording like -vaporware- for example...
got my point now ?
wow you are really drinking the koolaid arent you?
Sorry the questions that were asked to Tasos here by the staff are some of the same questions I would have asked. Followed by...
#3 Why is df the ONLY beta in the history of MMO's to have 0 leaks?
#4 Why does everyone who reviews DF seem to be a friend or relative?
#5 What is scaring you off so badly about 3rd party unbiased rev iews?
#6 Why are you chosing to create hostility within your community by with holding info?
#7 Do you guys REALLY mean release this time? As opposed to last time we were here?
See, what your missing Mr. Koolaid drinker, is journalism isnt nice, its not friendly, its about getting information that people want. You can say that MMORPG community doesnt deserve to get anything, but all you are doing with that is shooting DF in the foot.
Lots of DF potential players have been following this game since they quit UO.. long before most of you so caled fanbois came around. We were promised beta time and time again, and promised release at least once.
You guys seem to think that the DF devs can do things completely differently than any other MMO company has.... no beta, internal testing, paid testers, no information, nda till the day the game goes live, etc etc and have a great game... however, if you would simply take a moment, think logicaly, and put the damn koolaid sipy cup down you would see a lot of the questions folks like me have been asking are legit..
In fact... not only are they legit, but it shows a rather scary track record with Tasos and his crew. For whatever reason those guys run the company like a secret govt agency, and time and time again that has been proven to alienate and frustrate customers. In this day and age devs need to be as transparent and open as they can be with their customers...and DF will find that out the hard way.
And I thought I could not get funnier One beta-key to show them all... This needs a "Special Award " in "The Best of 2008" lists. Giving away 1 beta-key a day in ten or twelve years they could start server stress test
One key to rule them all, one key to find them, one keyto bring them all, and darkfall shall bind them.
LOL, umm they're giving away only 1 Beta key when DF is scheduled to be released in less than a month?!?!?! Please forgive me for saying this, but that is all the proof I need to see this game is NOT going to be released in 29 days..Giving out 1 beta key supposedly right after Open beta is slated to end?!?! LOL, whoever still believes this game will be released in 29 days is definitely living in his or her own little dream world filled with leprechauns, fairies, and gnomes...

Its best not to doubt and question our lord Tasos.
Don't be terrorized! You're more likely to die of a car accident, drowning, fire, or murder! More people die every year from prescription drugs than terrorism LOL!
They better just delayed the game (what might come anyway). Then people would say "hah, I knew it", "it is not ready yet", "of course they delay it", but that would be expected by many people so the winds would calm down soon.
With this beta-action I believe Aventurine turns the one or the other "optimistic" into a "sceptic".

"There is as yet insufficient data for a meaningful answer."
Here's how it works:
Italian guys have a contest for a beta slot.
Tasos is the one who chooses from the entries.
Tasos chooses a family member or friend to enter the contest.
Tasos then chooses family member/friend as lucky "contestant".
Phony beta tester is suddenly granted the right to post his "review", which will be (*gasp*) positive and ecstatic.
Ya... I konw.. isn't it great!
