/waits for trolls to have a field day over a 1 day delay.
I have seen post, after post, after post by DF fans over the poast 48 hours trying to bait a flame thread. It seems most of your (plural) posts aim to do nothing but create the environment that you are somehow being virtually oppressed. It's laughable. I should also mention, that if you think the delay has only been 1 day....
It's hopeless.
Edit: There is an "r" in vitually. Got me there.
You hit the nail on the head with that comment! Anybody who doesn't have a 100% positive opinion are jumped on by this army of angry teenage fanbois throwing Troll accusations about, childishly thinking it refutes the factual bad points being made about the game from beta and now this launch. The intellectual level of conversation by what seems a majority of player frequenting the main DF forums and these DF forums is akin to a child's playground. Do you really want to play 42 Euro to join a bunch sociopaths?
Originally posted by JK-Kanosi I hate to gloat, because I haven't been on the boards flaming the game or anything, but I have been reading them on occasion and most fanbois have been terrible, so I'm glad they're learning the hard way. This is not to say the game won't launch, but it's like most of us sane people have been saying all along. The game isn't ready for release and isn't worth a persons money. 8 years of development and 5 years of Tesos saying the game is ready to release, and this is what you guys get in return for your blind fanboism.
It is rather sad and pathetic watching this whole thing unfold, but even more pathetic is the swarm of blathering idiots on their single- or double-digit-post-count accounts spamming "LOL EPIKK FAYL" over and over and over. There are retards on both sides and dumb things have been said in both directions. I think it's time to stop pointing fingers at who said what and start digging for the real truth, whatever it may be.
Personally, I'm staying as far away from this project as possible. The game may be the best game in the world but I can't buy it even if I wanted to, and that's enough to turn me away.
The sad thing is all those people who pre-ordered. I seriously hope you all actually get a months worth soon. I will say that if this game tanks, dont come to other games with that attitude. The darkfall community has become the bane of our gaming society and one thing I will cheer for is the fall of that horrid community.
Tasos lie again? <Brannoc>:We are currently hard at work on getting the game and account servers online and working, at this time I cannot provide an ETA, all updates will be posted here as I receive them. All game accounts already created will be credit with game time to compensate.
That bastard Tacos said it was a billing issue!!!!!!!!
wtf? Now the servers are down??????
Seriously thank god I play Eve.
March 10th Apocrypha Xpac releases, come on over guys.
No sandbox fan should be without a sandbox to play in. pew pew
Man i hear you, Apocrypha seems to be what i was waiting for (except players movin into stations not here yet). Going back to EvE and not D&L bis, check that Tasos real name is not Quilichinni, i'm sure it's D&L crew under disguise.
EVE
And for everyone who want freedom n hardcore pvp, seriously, get urself a UO account on a free shard while u wait for the mongoose who runs to provide electricity for Tasos to take some EPO.
You're a Hardcore Survivor!
You not only survived the zombie apocalypse, but did it with style! Your mastery of zombie knowledge, survival tactics, and weaponry is nearly unmatched. Congratulations, for you are hardcore!
No release is flawless. Personally I hope that this game will arrive today or tomorrow, and that it will be stable. I played in beta and I think it has the potential to be the best MMO ever. IMHO I think the game itself isn't ready for launch yet, that's why I didn't pre-order the game (and probably won't buy it until next month), but if they really needed the money I can understand their decision and I support them. No, I'm NOT a fanboy. Was a "hater" (stoped believing in the game and stoped to think and talk about it. Kept myself to off-topic on forumfall) myself until I played beta.
The game isn't for everyone. Why some people feel the urge to show off their e-peen here and spread hate I have no idea. Maybe they should get a girlfriend, or maybe even a life? This is a game, and not politics.
Oh well. The average age on MMORPG.com is probably around 12, so I guess I can have some basic understanding to why this is happening.
already logging in.. half way with patching.. worked out perfect as I just got out of class 3 hours ago. BTW, trolls, be trolls, for those of you ready to have a great experience. Ill be in-game waiting for you!
PS. Since everyones a genius when it comes to releasing an indy game. Blizzard had to refund an entire month of WoW subscriptions the 2nd month, and as for the first free month, many people got an average of 3 days of gametime with 2 hour long queues and frequent server crashes/lagouts.. how do i know? I was in beta til 8 months after release and quit before BG came out. Not to mention they had 400,000 subscribers, and released only 12 servers with max capacities of 3-4k simultaneously and 15-20k signed off. So troll all you want, DNL didnt last a week, DFO has already lasted 3 months in beta.. we'll SEE! epeen in your ass!

you would be if the server just didnt crash and go offline MUAHAHAHA! /noogie
I have to be honest here. I was in the Darkfall Beta. It is infact real software, unfortunately it isn't impressive in the slightest. I've seen plenty of free to play MMO's that hold up to the exact same caliber as Darkfall Online. I've been in quite a few Beta tests and by comparison Darkfall isn't a terrible game, but it's simply not for me. The game control is slow and robotic at best. The collision that was originally set as a feature is definitely not there. While the game does infact allow progression through use of skills and not by a number system, the use of magic and melee skills and switching between them is problematic at best. The healing and spell systems are troublesome at best, and there is little if any content to guide one from one place to the other or even get one started to far along. Only those with the time and energy to put themselves through their own makeshift tutorial sessions would seriously find it a good fit. The graphics aren't terrible, but they aren't impressive. As it feels more like they've done their best to just go along with what they see as the vision of their sandbox world. That isn't a bad thing, but it doesn't make it stand out to me either. It's amazing the craziness the game seems to be generating. It may still yet appeal to a niche audience, and be a successfully self sustaining MMORPG.But, they'll have to get the billing together before I see that happening.
Collision not there? If you stand by that statement, you did not play. Or else you are lieing on purpose.
Also, name a FTP game that is as stable and offers as much as DF.
And I lol'd at "and there is little if any content to guide one from one place to the other or even get one started to far along."
Bwahahhahahaa
Hand-holding is for themeparks, bud.
If you're not a mongoloid you should have a general grasp of the game within the first 5 minutes of hopping in. I know I was rip roaring ready the minute I got in.

Originally posted by sprigganny I am not a DF lover or hater but come on... every mmo in the past five years that has launched like this has a 100% failure rate. I feel for all the DF fans out there, your game will soon be added to the failed mmo list. It sad but very true for the people that backed this title.
Lotro's launch was as smooth as a babies behind, so no...not every MMO in the past 5 years. Stop defending that which does not warrant a defense.
Well the haters are going to use this information to yet again denounce darkfall and the fanbois are going to proclaim with bounteous glee the march of progress.
Us haters don't need this information to denounce darkfall.
Ok, so it was 8 years in the making. Some of you whined about the delays etc. That doesn't give you a right to, it's not like they stole anything from you, they wanted to make the game as stable and as best as physically possible. TBH that doesn't give you a right to flame them, since you can't rely on WORDS.
Now, you think the launch day is an epic fail? GOOD GOOD MEN, at least give them 48 hours to sort the kinks out. You seriously think 1 day of server downtime is fail? How about you go to work/school and wait another day because you don't know half of what it takes to make a MMO that can support 15,000 players simultaneously.
Seriously guys, take a chill pill, it's only been 1 day. Now if the the servers are still down in a week, then you can complain.
I'm not a fanboy but jesus the game launched on the evening of the 25th and now it's only the 26th and some of you are acting as though you're late for a butthole pleasure meeting.

I thought Darkfall is the butt hole pleasure meeting.
Darkfall reminds of two games: Dark and Light, and Mourning.
Both were indy games. I think both had similar pre-order mishaps just like this. They were both continually delayed. Both were scams (promised a lot, just to get a bunch of pre-order money). Both had a lot of fans hyping them up. Both had many problems and drama surrounding there development. Both are now dead. They were crappy games. Irth Online was another one similar. I'm sure there are others. People just don't learn.
Well I just played the release of Darkfall. Picked a race that has less of the population playing on purpose. But didn't have any problems. 150-200ms Ping from the westcoast of Canada. I am enjoying it so far.
The only issue that I have is the clunky interface but it's workable.
So the game is out and it can be played. Well other then they have gone down for matainance.
With everything Ive seen in beta this game is more ready than any other MMO out there I have tested and has kept my attention more than anything else Ive played so far. I love my freedom in a game and have it now. They are going thru the billing process just got my confirmation for the full amount 42$ for the game. I dont know if they are going thru from first to last but I got my pre-order about 15 min before they closed the pre-orders down the other day getting close to the end I would say.
Bro, that^^ is the most retarded statement!
Darkfall's beta has been one of the worst I have perticipated in. Other than the game client being stable, Aventurine's direction and Darkfall's content within beta has been nil.
Nothing that was introduced in beta worked and it still doesn't and all Aventurine has done during the beta process is "tweak". There was no clear communication, no outline or path. In most closed beta phases I have perticipated in (17 or 18 closed betas), there has been a clear progression and milestones achieved.
Secondly, this company is so backwards, they can't even handle 25k people trying to pre-order the game, that they have to delay it's release 1 day..!
Tasos has no qualifications and hisnumurous mishaps have shown this. I have absolutly no cofidence in their ability to put out a working MMORPG that has any of the features that have planned. Darkfall will just be another Dark & Light and be yet another lesson to learn from. This game will go bankrupt within months, solely due to the incompetency of Tasos.
asf ar as i know everything was working so i say your lieing
I call BS on this launch...why the heck would these guys wait till launch day to process orders??? considering its your money they want. i highly doubt they are going to wait that long to process....didnt the preorders start last week? the way these guys have been dying for your money tells me that they would have processed every last cent. also why are they processing it...didnt they outsource to another highly resepcted company to take care of billing? i also like how he states getting extra free days...there is nothing free about paying through the nose for a download only client.. i really do hope for the best for this game but i really do hate liers and scammers...its like these indy dev companies go to the same school on how to remove money from the pockets of die hards and then laugh their way to the bank as the servers get shut down for good...and get away with it.
how many accounts does tasos have on this site anyways..i can spot a few.. how many can you guys spot?
there was a point where i wanted to play this game, but when i noticed that its beeen in dev. for lik 10 years, and the graphics were a total let down i declared..... EPIK FAIL... once again
im sorry you havent seen max settings yet have you but if gfx make a game go play aoc tell me how that is

i was at work but my account is having the pre order issue yet so not sure if its my cc or what
I love how this game, despite it's developers absolute best efforts to keep interest down, has far exceeded interest and intrigue normally reserved for the 50-100 million dollar budget games.
Seriously folks, they've given out what, 8 official updates over the past 12 months?
They can't keep their licensed VBulletin forums up. They can't keep their billing up. They can't keep their IRC channel up.
They keep trying to shoo all you fools away, but you keep dropping 100 reply threads everytime they give you ten words.
All I can say is, I played 6 weeks of closed beta, and it felt like my first 6 weeks in AC:Darktide. That much says enough for me, and the existance of this whiny ass thread speaks enough for the legitimate interest for this game.

150-200ms ping to what server? Germany?
Btw see? Happy customer. Wait another day or two and the party begins
Also, please stop comparing other game's features/launches, etc. It's sad really. Darkfall isn't comparable. It's like comparing cheese to a TV. Entertaining for a while until you realize the people comparing are brain damaged.
EDIT: And don't compare the beta with the final version. The Beta had graphics on LOW and it was in DEBUG mode which means AI was very limited and some other features were too.
