    Dont mean to be rude but do you just post to gain more postcount? seriously this could have been added to all the other posts you made in this thread already.

    - Animations and sound effects still need a lot of work
    - World seems pretty low on detail in a lot of areas (saw some nice flowers though) It reminds me most of Morrowind, atmosphere and graphics wise.
    -The FFA aspect seems to be a blast but I guess it will be CRUCIAL to make a lot of friends as fast as possible. Everyone will do the smart thing and join guilds and gang up with others which make you an easy picking if you go out in the world alone.
    - Targeting in melee seems hard; swings of two handers are looking pretty slow while there is nothing to slow your opponent down or prevent him from running away.
    -Magic seem to be pretty effective against runners and far away targets (fighting from such a long range compared to other mmo's is pretty nice for a change) and it looks like they hit multiple targets if they are standing close enough to each other.
    -The difficulties, length of the fights and full loot aspects of killing other players make finally getting to kill players a big thrill.
     
     

     

    Yeah I mostly agree.

    Thou the lack of CC and snares makes, in my opinion a lot more sense considering the full loot aspect.

     

    If a group comes down to gank me and take my hard earned stuff, I want them to have to work for it, they will have to catch me.

     

    Being stunlocked from the moment someone shows up on ur screen untill ur dead is not a good mechanic with full loot.

     Looks awesome. Good luck to all you trolls in WoW and other clones, a game that honours the original MMO concept is back and I'm looking forward to release.

    Graphics... so fucking what? If you want awesome graphics go outside.

    <------------------wow is that way
    Yeah...traditional fanboi response when someone points out that MMO's are not ALL about PvP. Superb.
    Its baffling to me that you complain about Darkfall having PvP, so yeah, its OBVIOUSLY
     not the game for you.
     
    And since u mentioned a leaked post ill mention one too.
    If u go back to the same site ull see a post about a clan vs clan battle involving 3 clans and little to no lag.
    I'm talking about a released game where the servers will actually be under stress and people from all over the world try to play. And less lag giving you a significant advantage over others in this kind of system. And I've explained these things countless times, and I'm frankly tired of it by now since all you people do is say "it won't be a problem" without giving any reasons.
    No, u where talking about a post that expressed concerns about lag during a siege battle in Beta, and i showed u why u where wrong in being concerned about that.
    Now u are talking about whether or whether not Darkfall will manage its launch, well thats what an MMO is, a game with alot of ppl, if they cant manage what every other mmo has then we obviously have a problem. 
     
    And about Dual-characters, that would mean two accounts as only one is allowed per.
    So? You really think that will keep it from happening?
    it will keep it from being a problem, not saying it wont happen, some ppl have the money to spare. But frankly its hardly needed, being red isnt that hard to get rid off anyway.
     
    -Darkstar
     

     

     

    OK....one more time. Before I resign back to lurking.

     

    1)  I'm not complaining about Darkfall having PvP. I said it is all about the PvP and people looking for something else as their priority will be driven out I THINK. I like my PvP, but I also like other things, you know. So I said that this game is likely for those that have their FOCUS on PvP. I didn't even say it's a bad thing. And you, in all your fanboi glory, could only come up with "go back to WoW n00b!"? Brilliant.

     

    2) I've talked about several things. The concerns I have expressed over my active time on the DF boards which, in that time, have caused people to label me as a troll. Among those were graphical issues as well as lag issues and others. I expressed them here again. Sorry I did not list them all. And nothing you showed me tells me I am -wrong-. One leak says this. Another says that. So which one is more valid? The one that glorifies your game? or the one that doesn't? Who knows? You? No. Me? No. So I will continue being concerned, thank you.

     

    As for them not managing a lot of people...they've already admitted that they can't. So much for that?

     

    3) So the consequences that are so highly praised aren#t actually that harsh? I thought being an outlaw was supposed to be a big deal? Now you#re telling me it's just a minor bother? Hmm....doesn't make it any better if you ask me.

     

    Finally, go dig your claws in someone else. i did not even attack your precious game in my original post. I stated that no concerns of mine have been alleviated, and they haven't been. I stated that the game will be for the PvP-Focused crowd, without bashing or insulting them, and in turn I get the standard "go back to WoW" stupidity.

     

    Sheesh.

    Here are links to 2 different youtube videos

    www.youtube.com/watch

    www.youtube.com/watch

    one of them is a parody of Darkfall  using a mod from Tribes created by some amateur guy with fairly good sense of humor IMO and the other one is actual gameplay of the same game developed by a proffessional team of developers that is gonna release in 7(?) days time !!!

    After watching both i'm actually confused as to which is which

    The movement,the animations , the graphics  they all seem alike but they're supposed to be 2 different games

    Can anybody give me definite way to tell them apart?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated......

    Iiii-iiiiiit's.... me!!! *Hooray*

  • COORSCOORS Member UncommonPosts: 353

    No offense intended here. I never argue personal tastes, that just wouldn't be right. And... I'm not judging the graphic quality especially on you-tube.

    But... After watching this video, I must say.

    THIS is what you fanbois have been browbeating us doubters about? THIS?

    THIS bunny hopping, poorly animated, jumping all over the battlefield, chasing everyone else who's running AND constantly JUMPING all over, mouse clicking battle-fest?

    Is this it? THIS is what you've been dreaming about. THIS?

    This is what some of you fanbois have been beating over everyone's head for as long as I can remember?

    This is the greatest MMO of all time? This is the combat MMO you've been drooling over?

    Maybe I'm missing a great deal here I don't know about. But.... This running, chasing, jumping, bunny-hopping and click... click... click... combat does NOT look promising to me.

    To each his own I guess.

    Some people actually eat and like blood sausage.

    Holy moly... I'm so disapointed :(

    I had faith... I wanted this game to be teh sh!t ... but it failed. Wow this looks so... boring and blend and... where is the LIFE?

    There's not a single NPC in the forest... well there's no npc anywhere ...

    Graphic well.. duh, nothing to say there. Those who said it's almost AoC ... WTF? AoC is almost on par with Crysis.

    Anyways... this went from a "zomg darkfall" to a oh well another game down the drain.

    Back off, u had that coming.

     

    1. Fine.

     

    2. Ok, i dont know about ur concerns and u dont seem to want to talk about it.

    As for the siege lag example, id believe the one that was posted LAST.

     

    3. No being an outlaw was never supposed to be a big deal, the whole red vs blue system as it is now will mostly only affect low level players anyway.

    I agree, but still, if you whollop someone on his kneecap with your two handed hammer you kinda expect them to at least limp around for a few seconds (to say the least). I prefer the thing they are working on in Mortal Online with 10 hitboxes on a character to have different outcomes / targetting options so injuries are in conjunction with the bodypart affected and it promises some more variety rather than the generic splash of blood and no other side effects than taking a hit on your health bar. But you can't have everything.

    p.s. Even though the graphics, animations and sounds are not what I'd like them to be, the PVP will still be one of the more exciting ones in the MMORPG world, I reckon and that is worth something.

    The people here had one melee attack, used only one agressive spell, and one or two beneficial ones.

    The game has MANY more, but they arent skilled enough to use them.

     

    As for the running, yeah this is an intense game there will be lots of movement, perhaps not quite as much as this, since ppl are still getting used to the game, but that is Darkfall.

    If u dont like it u dont have to play it.

    No unlike games like wow that spaces the NPCs out evenly, in this game u need to look for them. They are in lair, villages, camps, graveyards, dungeons etc.

    Ad that to the fact that most of them are turned off for beta.

    The generic "slap and tickle" of DF is what annoys me about the combat.

    10 hit boxes would be impressive in mortal ( or DF for that matter). I wonder if there is a downside to it.. for example like having fewer numbers of people in combat at once in the same area?  Personally I'd rather have more quality in smaller fight than a larger one which is and "on" / " off" whack-a-thon.

    I am sorry you feel that way, perhaps you will find another game, such as AoC or Warhammer more to your liking!

     

    Good Luck!



     

    It just goes to show you that people don't pay attention.

    This is a game made by a small company. Quite frankly, that they even got this far is a miracle in and of itself. This game is, in the end, going to be about the gameplay and offering something that is not prevalent in  mmo's today.

    but for some reason players want to ascribe the notion that this game is going to compete with big budget games from big studios.

     

    A healthy dose of perspective needs to be adopted. And because many players can't do this, you will not see very many open pvp full loot games coming to market. Game companies that are large and have money are not going to take the risk.

    Darkfall needs to succeed (and by that I mean pay it's bills and provide a fun gaming experience) so that game companies can feel more comfortable creating games that do not fit the usual mode.

    the graphics are suitable in this case. They work, they function.
