    Yeah, and the "I'd rather wait another month than play a buggy game" posts have already started there.

    Also, they claim that the Test Client will patch to the release client of DnL.  Which means...wait for it.

    lol no you would belive that they made completly new client for stress test and dnl release ?

    Of course is the same client, it seems that they will add new patcher to it ( not update.bat -> rsync) and if we are lucky some gfx's like missing icons etc ...

    Would you rather wait and play a decent version or play a buggy non working game? of course people are going to say that. They have paid money after all. But it is sad that the customers have to constantly make excuses for someone else.

    Having said that.... Why would people have given this company money to begin with? Charging for a pre-order, without knowing when you'll even release a product. Bad business. Bending the truth so much they can't even keep their own stories straight. Bad business. Allegedly stealing the code that is part of the foundation of your game. Bad business. Wait untill a day or two before "release" to inform your customers, who paid you 6 months ago, that the release has been postponed. Rinse and repeat month after month. Bad business. Releasing a game that is only 70% done and telling your customers it isn't done, but pay us anyway. Bad business. Sure you could argue..."At least they are being honest." But these guys have lost so many fans and so much credibility, that anything less than a finished product is going to finish this company off. How could anyone even want to play it?

    I followed this game for a few years. I was pretty excited for it to come out. But a combination of all the things they pulled on people has really turned me away.  I once thought about pre-ordering, and I am glad I held off. I have never said this about any game, but here I am saying...DOOM. They do have a few customers that they managed to pull in. But I really don't expect this game to take off. If it does I'll be ashamed of us as gamers for allowing them to raise the bar on how much you can lie, cheat and steal to your fans.

    This is apperantly the 6th time DnL has been delayed since the original release date in Dec 2003.
    I wonder when Farlan will run out of nails.
    They hammered so many nails into their coffin that they have to run out soon.
    I highly doubt this game will survive a year before Farlan go bankrupt.

    Or, as in this case. Wait... and play an incomplete pile of junk.

    This is my favorite delayed pic yet :D


    You can see at the VERY bottom right in small print it says:
    "The adventures in the land of Ganareth will resume on the 5th of June..."

    lol Amazing they pull the same last minute delay after the uproar they had on the last last minute delay.
    This company just never learns lol

    chuckle, I am even skeptical that they can release before a year is up at this rate.

    Looks like alot of "hopefuls" still left in the forums.

    Don't be terrorized! You're more likely to die of a car accident, drowning, fire, or murder! More people die every year from prescription drugs than terrorism LOL!

    Where?  Where?  Get them! 
  • 6 days delay isnt going to be sufficient. They will delay again. It will be needed. Its starting to feel like as soon as they announce a date, set a price, get a few buyers (supposedly, i havent seen any real increase ingame), they delay and do the loop again. Getting so tiring.

    Excellent business plan...

  • you can "enter" the game on May 30th but you cant play it until June 5th. What the hell are they trying to pull now?

  • ZorbaneZorbane Member UncommonPosts: 529

    I wonder if there will be another delay

    Back when they had the May 30th date I was sure this would finally be the release date, and with this new one it seems even more certain that they have to release "on time"

    But I don't know anymore

    that was what I was thinking. They have not even released an official announcement? If they did could someone provide the link. I must have missed it.A few days ago, if it had not been pointed out in this thread I would have never known.
