Yes. I hear the new buzz on the streets is calling patches expansions. Anyway, I just made my tinfoil hat, and a double-layered one, at that.
They provide enough new content in them that they can call them expansions especially with them being free. This is not uncommon throughout the entire MMO industry. People only make a big deal out of it because they want another reason to rag on this game. There are many good reasons to rag on this game, but trolls do not like to stick to honest criticism alone.
The hit thing is odd definitely though.
Read my posting history about this, please. If you have questions, we can talk over PMs.
Do not have the time, have read most of the arguments for and against it. We would likely just bark stuff at each other we both already know. Prob would not change each others mind on the issue anyhow.
So its twitter that generates hits for Darkfall when someone posts updates? I'm not familiar with Twitter but they have huge amounts of people who can check it out so I guess it's possible.
If not they should stop the damn macro, turning it on once or twice per day would be enough dumbo

I loled - and its a pretty novel idea really, and I think legal? Im sure mmorpg.com arent averse to having thousands of hits coming directly off twitter.

Well then its case closed: Darkfall is indeed the most popular game on mmorpg.com on it's own merit...sort of
Wow, can't believe people are STILL trying to find something to bash Darkfall about.
Yes, the numbers do seem odd, but think about it, they just announced that transfers are THIS WEEK and we should be seeing the upcoming large expansion in a week or two, why wouldn't that attract a SHIT TON of people?
Just wanted to say that people who think that this is some sort of ploy to get popularity on THIS site are completely mistaken. It is not unknown that most of the users here are not cut out for darkfall and it was never the developers intention to have more than a few thousand subscribers per server. This game is not for the masses and if it had as many subscribers that you noobs think a good game needs then the players the game was actually designed for would not be playing it.
The only service this website brings to darkfall is to give the WOW/AION players who are looking for a meaningful pvp experience and a true sandbox envirornment a chance to find out about the game.
TLDR: most likely if you are reading this you would be horrible at darkfall even if you played it but thats okay because we don't want you to play with us, carebear. Go back to your spoon fed content you simpleton.
Maybe if nutcuppers like the OP didnt come here every 5 seconds furiously refreshing incase there is something new to bash, it wouldnt have half as many hits.
Playing polished, lag free, feature complete games is carebear. Whining about a game you hate but still play is hardcore man!
Well, that wouldn't be the first time DFO is involved in shady stuff. It is obvious manipulation, or maybe Tasos is giving away free moussakas to people who access the forums in Greece. When the game is lacking, you gotta find some other ways to feed the monkey. And I must admit AV is pretty good at that.
I find it hysterical that all the conspiracy theorists are still out there making up nonsense. You just can't break the habbit huh? Years and years spent calling Darkfall vaporware, a scam, a big inside job, now that its out, surely the only way it could have generated hits is by shady under dealings. I would have written this off as a troll post (well, it still is) until I saw the next few members agree with it. I'm sure the unique hits have absolutely nothing to do with the fact that Darkfall is currently undergoing a lot of additions to the game, forums, account servers, with lots of new players, and things of that nature. Nothing to do with Darkfall having an article hosted on this website. It's all a conspiracy theory from that evil shady Tasos up to no good to generate interest on a website that has hated Darkfall for 4 years!
Maybe if nutcuppers like the OP didnt come here every 5 seconds furiously refreshing incase there is something new to bash, it wouldnt have half as many hits.
Talking about that numbers has rised their reproduction rate. Seems has the effect of aphrodesiac to that numbers

I love the Irony of people continually posting in a forum and at the same wondering why that forum is so popular.
"Mr. Rothstein, your people never will understand... the way it works out here. You're all just our guests. But you act like you're at home. Let me tell you something, partner. You ain't home. But that's where we're gonna send you if it harelips the governor." - Pat Webb
This forum has been over the xfire issue a zillion times. Xfire is irrelevant with Darkfall because the program screws up the game, among other things.
You have to keep in mind that a very small percentage of gamers actually care to use a program that tracks their gaming time. Most of us really don't care about stuff like that.
I agree 'nuff said.

Dear god, I fucking hope the ratio stays like that and I am a darkfall player. The only way darkfall could become that popular would be if it catered to all the 15 year olds who cant handle a full loot sandbox pvp game. Darkfall is a game for people that are looking for something different, not people who are looking for a carbon copy of the most popular online game ever.
Niche game has a loyal niche player base, enjoy your pixies and fairies.
If we put for every chinese and the amount on chinese goes into bilions a bot in that equation and then divide the time through gold then adding the time for selling then the time for AION could be explained.

Yup, it's well known people dismiss estimations and statistics using many lousy reasons when those estimations and statistics don't go their way. You can bet that if DFO was beating Aion on xfire, you'd have the whole fanboi crowd here praising it.
Fanbois of huge MMO failures never like to be shown the truth. I'll be around to laugh when darkfall closes due to lack of subscriptions, not generating enough money to maintain servers and, most important, to pay the developers. Because "zomg I'm so cool I like to be a niche" doesn't work anymore when you're out of money. Or do you think money grows on trees in Greece? I doubt darkfall will survive coming year 2010, specially with the new MMOs coming out in that year. Mark my words, we'll talk again about it soon.

Don't worry, Aventurine doesn't just work on DarkFall.
They have a lifetime contract making military training software for the Greek Air Forces.
So they wont run out of money, be sure of that.
Imo, they made a massive profit from DFO.
No advertising, just two servers, tiny dev team. They made shit loads of money just from the initial sales back in Ferbuary.
Add all the hackers with double and triple accounts + monthly fees for all these months and there you go, even more money.
In my book, Aventurine has succeded in many ways.
But im happy for one thing. They showed the big companies out there that games like DFO can work and will work if you make them properly.
