     I vote fail for now. Mind you, this is after, what 24 hours? So yeah, first day..not so good.

    Let's see how they recover.

    Too sooon.

    Initially when they were up and stable yesterday I was having a blast.  Then the sync thing...and that drove me to logging off.  Good thing though, actually talked to my wife and kids lol

    we'll see.  i'd do this poll in another week, give people that long to see how the game might really run and what the world is truly about.

     

    Those who want to live, let them fight, and those who do not want to fight in this world of eternal struggle do not deserve to live.

    The whole Operation Darkfall has just been one big fuck-up.

    The game could be great for all I know, but the people running the show appear to be not up to the task.

    Perhaps you were having a blast.. but how long are you going to keep having a blast doing nothing but PK'ing someone?

    There is nothing to do in the game beyond running around mindlessly trying to PK anyone in sight.

    That's going to get old within DAYS.

    i guess it depends on what you're use too.  I know they do have some quests, but it you look at UO (i know, i know) They had no quests.

    Go out in the world and do what you want.

    Want to be a crafter, go be a crafter, you dont' have to do quests to interact.  Want to be a fighter? - join a guild or jump people that walk on the road.  Or save cities from goblins :)

    You're not limited to having to kill 10 of these, 30 of that.  A lot of people don't understand that.

    Look at that other mmo out there, that one with the 'real world' type clone - no quests, just do what ya want in an alternate world.  Same here I think.

    Now I'm not a fanboy...yet at least...but I like that I don't have to do quests to get crap done.  I'll discover the part of the world that I want too....and i'll die alot!  lol

    Those who want to live, let them fight, and those who do not want to fight in this world of eternal struggle do not deserve to live.

    Clearly a failure.

  • jonyakjonyak Member Posts: 320

    They have had a rough launch that has not gone very good. That does not make it a failure.

    It has only been out for 3 days... that does not make it a success.

    So I would say to but it so black and white and try to pass a judgement this early is pretty stupid.

    Passing a judgement based on your subjective opinion of what success is ignorant.

    its neither right now.

    TWO days sorry but I had to correct you.

    It still amazes me that there are those that think a company that can't put together a competent website or a competent billing/order system, somehow miraculously put together a competent MMO.  PvP'ers are starving for something, to the point where anything looks good...but my god the game is awful after you get past the "it's finally out...sortof" phase.  There is no content, bugs galore, and the cheating is going to be of epic proportions.

  • RaizeenRaizeen Member Posts: 622

    alot more people think it sucks and a complete failure witch it is so it doesent matter if a mere 20k like the game it wont keep them alive or give them any real money to do anything and i bet even more will quite after a month or so gg

    well the only problem with this statement is that they originaly only designed and inteded for that amount of people, so by there standards this is a massive sucess.

  • RavenRaven Member UncommonPosts: 2,005

    No Communication, people being overcharged aparently, people that pre-ordered still dont have access to the game, did I meantion the devs or community representatives not communicating with their customers?

    The closest thing to an official statement people got was Brannoc saying "I dont know!" and that "Tasos sleeps 2-3hours a day", this just shows how a bunch of amateurs they are, not only at game development but at keeping a company going, at this point you would expect them to try and do some damage control, instead they interview this Brannoc guy who has absolutely no clue whats going on.

    I say the game is a success but the launch is an epic fail.

    no, I'm smart enough to do the logic.  If it smells like garbage, tastes like garbage...then it is garbage.  And anyone surprised about the currrent issues clearly has been living in a vacuum the last 6 years.  Tasos and his little motley crew have been unprepared and underwhelming in just about every aspect of their job, with the exception of listing a bunch of features years ago that every pvp'er wanted...and the fact that they can't deliver on it doesn't seem to phase the truely blind devotees.
