The launch is a disaster, preordering is a disaster, and most of us won't be able to play until mid march (if not later).
Why is Aventurine not being honest with us? These things DO NOT mean the game will tank though as a lot of mmo's have similar problems during launch, and given that the company that is publishing DF is probably the most unproffessional company that ever tried to make a p2p mmo, you really had to expect that this would happen to DF especially.
The problem is Aventurine is not saying "we screwed up", and keep saying its "out of their hands" and is due to foriegn factors. ORLY? Why can MANY other companies launch a game just fine without things imploding? Its because they considered the potential problems and found countermeasures for them, you guys didn't, that's your fault and no one else's. Its also your fault that only 10k-30k people will be able to play on launch, you guys ran out of money before you had time to finish the game and obtain rescources for a launch [ they really didn't use their time wisely, they seemed to have been more busy making a large gameworld than figuring out how features work together and how to impliment features (there are disgusting imbalances and HUGE problems with the features that DID make it in game atm)]

Lol according to this I'm bipolar :O

What? They just released an update saying billing was taking longer than they thought(and are adding extra days to the first free month).....and that preorders will get into the servers tonight. What more do you want?
I would personally like some pie!
To the op: What would an apology from them net your, or anyone else who has preordered or plan to? I would rather them fix the problem than waste time bowing to every fan's whims, but that is just my opinion mate.
Cheers!
MMO Vet since AOL Neverwinter Nights circa 1992. My MMO beat up your MMO. =S
DOOOOOM!!!
It's not our fault man! It's not our fault!
Which is what alot of us said about the game when every fanboi spammed the forum about this game. And they called us haters... I would say we are realists. And we seen alot of mmo´s and we know enough to predict due to things we read and hear.
DING DING DING.... We have a winner!

I have a feeling you would defend the Nazis even tho what they were doin was wrong. All the people defending this POS company and tryin to say how can u expect this this was goint o happen blah blah. I have some horse blinders for you and i am taking preorders for ym game its only 70 dollars up front.
Darkfalls so revolutionary it uninstalls itself.
realist or not..
They could at least give us some heads up! I'm to old waiting for shiatt like this..
Yes this annoy me greatly that tasos always put the blame on others its never them who can´t nahdle it or make mistakes no its always others or something.
He and prolly whole aventurine are just hiding behind this there COWARDS.
Games played:AC1-Darktide'99-2000-AC2-Darktide/dawnsong2003-2005,Lineage2-2005-2006 and now Darkfall-2009.....
In between WoW few months AoC few months and some f2p also all very short few weeks.
Stop being such a spoilt brat. "I want my toy and I want it now!!".
Avdenturine are completely new to this business and have made a completely revolutionary MMO. Good for them.
Get over it. Myself and thousands of others will not be able to play for a few months tops, but then we will, so stop your crying.
This thread kinda reminds me of that old saying, "Armchair Quarterbacks", in the sense that everyone here is an expert in the going ons with launching an MMO behind the scenes, especially from another country with alot of various internet problems that can occur. They, of course being Armchair Quarterbacks, wouldn't realize that a ton of the problems that may occur, because of being in a separate country and having a semi-global launch, can actually be out of Aventurine's hands.
Then again, this is mmorpg.com, where if a problem with Darkfall occurs it's 100% Aventurine's fault even if it was proven to be a mouse under the troll/hater's computer desk, chewing away at the cords.
splat
Hmm people are paying for a game and when they get a piece of crap in its place their not satisfied. I tell you, shit has no value these days! i mean, it can be used as manure to grow crops and stuff. People are sooo ungrateful!! WHAT MORE DO THEY WANT!!11one
"It is my opinion, that my opinions are always right"
I want you to read your entire comment aloud and tell me if you realize how pathetic it sounds.

Most people didn't say it that way... I'm a "fanboy" at this point, but I knew the launch would be chaotic based on everything else. That's one of the reasons I didn't put much effort into trying to pre-order, as I figured if something is too laggy to pre-order, I can only imagine how bad it will be when it comes to playing the thing.
Having said all that, once things calm down, I will definitely play the game. I beta tested it for a few weeks and can confidently say that it is currently the most enjoyable MMO I've played since UO.
They have stated the situation all along and they were right. And you sit here whining because thats how it appears. This will be fine in the next few days no rush.

........ummm?...........I want pie.
again, its a simply thing called communication... Like the GM's used to in the overall chat - eq when the game was down.. = fine, i'll wait, i'ts ok..

Well they (Nazis) believed in their cause and put words into action, at least .
Adding subscription days to make up for time lost is an indirect admission, and if I had pre-ordered I would consider that a fair trade.
Darkfall sure has spawned a revolution alright. I've never seen trolls this dumb before. Really.
They're flooding in IRC saying this is the worst launch in the history of MMOs, just because they didn't get their pre order. Sad and pathetic? Yes.
Darkfall Travelogues!
right here
Hmm.. They might look at (Improve) the informative updates the come with... Right now it looks like they took home from work 1600 CET.. Saying: Nah lets handle this tomorrow..We will explain tomorrow..
At least drop us some info Imo I'ts no shame if you cant handle the demand.. just admit it...

Nazi sympathizer = Darkfall enthusiast...............and, despite another poster's comment.... I would bet most Nazis only believed in the "cause" out of utter fear or a twisted desire to enact sick fantasies..the fact that this was even referenced as a spiteful response to a fan of a particular mmo is ludicrous and disgusting. I'm sure there were lesser comparisons that would have made a clear and pointed rebuttal. Of course...this is only my opinion.
TO the OP:
Of course it's a total failure but what else could you expect ? DFO had a lot of red flags. This epic fail is one more disaster for all MMORPGs'community. Because DFO was , in theory, our last chance: AOC failed, War failed, DFO is an epic fail, TR failed, POTBS failed, Vanguard failed.
Wow always wins...
Not surprised by the disaster, but not happy at all, as many of us.
Only fanboys thinks people wants to destroy or bash the game.
Shame on them because they always support and pay bad or unprofessional products: so we 'll have more and more failures each year. Shame on devs, because they killed this game alone.
Another sad day for mmorpg players. But there is no surprise. A lot of red flags... do you remember ? We told you so... many and many times. One more MMORPG on the ground.
Oh you trolls are so cute. Call me back when Darkfall isn't sold out. Fail? Hardly.
Darkfall Travelogues!

poor man, only 1 word : troll troll troll nothing else
NO . Take YOUR responsabilities. You wanted to support this game ? Yeah now we have another Dark and Light. THANK YOU for This, fanbot. THANK YOU. Blizzard can say THANK YOU to all fanboys of all DFO'S of the world. Another victory for the biggest blockbuster.
