Looks like alot of people are saying no to pre-ordering. They better have an open beta like wow did, otherwise they will not have such a great opening day for Darkfall. I still think this game's going to be another bust.
The more I think about it, the more I am inclinded to buy this game even if I won't play it. I mean, the doubt about the game being vapourware seems to have gone now - it definitely is a game. And it is a game where ther devs are at least trying to do something original, making the environment a little more lifelife and realistically brutal rather than the hand-holding copy-cat games we seem to be getting like the truckload.
If DF does well, then other companies will see the merit in tackling difficult projects which stand out from the crowd. Maybe then we can get ourselves out of the WoW mindset. If, on the otherhand, DF flops, the big MMO company managers are going to be scared off doing anything imaginative or ambitious.
Hell, I might even preorder. $50 seems a small price to pay.
of course I will pre-order. judging from the many videos it is pretty much what I had been hoping for. there are so many leaks dropping the NDA really wouldn't make a difference. seems there are not many people that have played it that are not going to pre-order. Aventurine is going to get lots more money from pre-orders assuming they don't limit them. good job devs finally someone making a game and sticking to their promised features.

I dont know what videos you saw but the ones I saw on youtube the game looks terrible.......
i watched that 13 minute video, and that pretty much sealed the deal for me, it looks shoddy at best, and no i am not talking about the graphics or performance.....
and who knew guard towers shot laser beams of annoying white lines........
Sorry, no to pre-ordering here ... I don't shell out money for games I have not had the chance to test. As it stands atm I will probably wait till the NA servers go online. By what I have seen and read the game is still looking interesting. Bottom line is no open beta/ trial equals no pre-ordering .. only fools and fanboys fork over money for a product they have not tried.

nope i will never preorder an mmo ever again (or a normal game for that matter) and im going to wait a month or so after it is out to see how the game really is instead of trusting the hype. but i am excited about darkfall and i hope it is good

true but it looks like they will have plenty of pre-orders from people who have tried it.
You mean the 300 that voted they were going to preorder in the beta forums? This is the "plenty of per-orders"? Or you have some other information? Even ten times that doesn't look like much.
The leaked GP video had me negatively surprised. I will have to try this before paying even a cent.

I will never pre order any game again. Ever. I will wait until an mmorpg is out for 90 days before I order it. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
I must agree here. I will never again pre-order.
"...and with that cryptic comment, I'm off to bed!"
I'll pre-order this bitch. While many people see the leaked videos and get negative thoughts (or however you want to put it), I know better.
I've been waiting for years now. Not for this game per se, but just a game LIKE this. I don't care how it looks. I don't care what the audio is like. I don't care about immersion. I care about the glory days of UO before I got laid for the first time. Those days when I would cut school just to GM a skill, then accidentally eat my rare coconuts while clicking around my bank. When tamers got raped, and I had six accounts because I kept getting banned for racial slurs. When I made one person stop playing the game because the anti-social onslaught was too much for him/her.
This game could look like Ultima Online and I would still buy it. Graphics are nice, but this is about a time period of gaming, not a particular game.
I'm excited that so much new information is being released about the beta...
The fact that none of that information, other than a poll concerning how many beta-testers will pre-order, scares me. I'm fairly sure Aventurine's hiding an unfinished game, a pre-order is far from my mind.
Although I will say that a week ago, not so much...I was very hyped and ready to pre-order, if a beta invite showed up.
Whatever though, as I've always said...It's their game.

Yes. 50 bucks big deal. Can't be worse than 2 copies of PotBS that I bought and played for 1 weekend.
Sorry, have to reply to this one...
The stupid don't deserve money.
Have fun making boxes on that assembly-line you work on...I really can't imagine you doing much else.

you realise there are 50+ leaks around now, right??
latency doesn't seem to matter too much, the americans haven't really been fazed that much.
Nope, no pre-order.
But I don't pre-order any game anyway.

Nope.
They need to prove its not another Dark and Light.
Not pre-ordering, since i'm not convinced this game will be good. I'll still keep my eye on it tho, in case i get proven wrong

Shit no!
You would have to have giant rocks in your head to preorder this game.

Free insult ftw!!! It's easy and everyone can do it!
