when is open beta?
On a level of suckage, how much does this game suck compared to darkfall?
Honest question.
What is the color of the sky O_O

i like it better than darkfall, its less of a click fest and it looks much nicer

I read its in a worse state than when DF released, which is like early internal alpha. Confirm/deny?
Never
Games:
Currently playing:Nothing
Will play: Darkfall: Unholy Wars
Past games:
Guild Wars 2 - Xpiher Duminous
Xpiher's GW2
GW 1 - Xpiher Duminous
Darkfall - Xpiher Duminous (NA) retired
AoC - Xpiher (Tyranny) retired
Warhammer - Xpiher
in its current form it is no where near release however they say the devs tell us there are two more major patches incoming

Never
Indie companies that expect people to buy their games for $49.99 with no trial/beta.
Lol, they're so dumb.
Mortal online is very rough at the moment. They have a lot of catching up to do to come anywhere close to Darkfall. The good news is SV listens to its playerbase and has been hard at work with the updates.
Never
Nice answer, thanks.
Now to some one who knows the game, is there a open beta in the future and when?
Never

When you can figure out how to properly institute a free trial with full loot pvp be sure to let us know.
there is no open beta... the beta was open to preorders because StarVault is a talented and dedicated group of developers that are running out of money to keep the lights on

whoa....catching up to Darkfall??
That has answered all my questions.
because graphics are everything Anyways
The good
The graphics
RP elements - there's a good amount of RP elements present in the back ground of the game
Crafting system is basic, but has depth if that makes.
The Bad
Mob AI
Slow combat
Stat loss that affects GvG
The fact that everything is basic (skill system, taming, housing, etc) but at least they said this was the case
The same bugs that were in Darkfall are in MO
Lack of built in macros for pet commands - good luck pet fighting in PvP
The par
Everything else

The game is still incomplete as far as features are concerned, but they have been adding them quickly most recently.
Most importantly to me, Mortal Online started off going in the right direction as far as developing an actual sandbox game. I like the direction it is going from the start.
It is definitely a much better looking game as well.

I would say it is about the same state as DF.
The PvE looks dreadful or in other words the same as Darkfall.
Crafting GUI is going to be in the next patch, and my guess would be that it will work out ok.
Combat is paced correctly, but the hitch ( lag ) is terrible and brings it to a crawl. If they worked out the kinks on the server then combat would just need tweaking and balancing. At the very minimum they have to fix this or game will flop like a frog in a frying pan.
I've only seen vids from the same person and they had terrible lag. It would be great to get another vid along with your computer specs to hopefully deny that it is that bad.
http://moleaks.blogspot.com/ <<< These are the vids I'm talking about. Has anyone else had less lag while playing?
I dont know much about this game. but is this like darkfall but better looking?....if so then il probably try it.

Well truth be told Darkfall has been developed for a long time and almost a year after release, patches and expansions. Even with all the hate around here people must know it really is a pretty well put together game and has alot of features
About MO well I was not in beta (aka did not buy it for 80 bucks) but have seen alot of nda breaching videos. The only thing that impressed me was the world being pretty, I give it that. combat and features in general is meh
could be great in a year or so, as I have stated plenty of times
The combat is snail pace and that is on purpose becuase they don't want people to use their uber FPS skills.

the crafting system is pretty neat, supposed to be a patch next monday, and the house system is far superior to darkfall's i think crafters are goin to have alot better time in MO

Is the ress harvesing click fest?
Will it be a bot / macro fest like DF was at release?
Anything of housing already inside the game?
Got no more questions. Thanks for answers.
PS: What sort of RP elements do they got so far?
