Bored so I went to check out the dnl forums..let the comedy begin





How do I cancel?Welcome to Hotel California...There is no escape!!!

this really has no right to even exist.

this game looks like it was made 15 years ago.

2 questions is this a scam/joke?with anyluck this will just be a joke and the real dnl will be released on the 5th

This release makes Horizons and Mourning look like top notch software.


I hate everything and everyone who even knows of this game.

Please post me the link where I cancel my subscription.


I think I'll take my preorder and give it away to someone I hate.


Level 5 mobs spawn right where new players spawn,your attacked and dead before you can even load in.

This game is worse than those free Korean MMO's...

    (In a post on an intended "feature", which someone said was not very well thought out)

    Can you point out anything so far that has been well thought out besides placing the headquarters on Mauritius where it would be hard for anyone to get anything back legally?

    Woot one of my quotes made it up there. Yeah this game is a steaming pile. I would rather play pong than DnL.

    Patching is very frequent so the server gets a rebooted from time to time.






    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!

    In that case, a server reboot schedule of once every 30 minutes--which is likely--just means we are getting cool patches.  Har har!  And here is a quote from a player thread called "Weapon crafting guide -- for idiots by idiots":

    "Of course all of this should have been explained by the devs with a proper manual with a detailed crafting section.  How do they expect this game to prosper if they leave us stumbling about in the dark."

    And this from another thread:

    "Ok i wanna know who they used for the Motion Capture for there highly touted Fighting animations. My guy who does one animation for melee looks like hes trying to get up off the toilet. There about as fluid as a barbie doll."

    Hotel California
    On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
    Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
    Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
    My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
    I had to stop for the night

    There she stood in the doorway;
    I heard the mission bell
    And I was thinking to myself,
    'This could be Heaven or this could be Hell'
    Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
    There were voices down the corridor,
    I thought I heard them say...

    Welcome to the Hotel California
    Such a lovely place
    Such a lovely face
    Plenty of room at the Hotel California
    Any time of year, you can find it here

    Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes benz
    She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
    How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.
    Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

    So I called up the Captain,
    'Please bring me my wine'
    He said,'We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine'
    And still those voices are calling from far away,
    Wake you up in the middle of the night
    Just to hear them say...

    Welcome to the Hotel California
    Such a lovely place
    Such a lovely face
    They livin' it up at the Hotel California
    What a nice surprise, bring your alibis

    Mirrors on the ceiling,
    The pink champagne on ice
    And she said 'We are all just prisoners here, of our own device'
    And in the master's chambers,
    They gathered for the feast
    They stab it with their steely knives,
    But they just can't kill the beast

    Last thing I remember, I was
    Running for the door

    I had to find the passage back
    To the place I was before
    'Relax,'said the night man,
    We are programmed to receive.
    You can checkout any time you like,
    but you can never leave

    LOL

    EDIT: oops! Lyrics Copyright The Eagles Hotel California (album) I LOVE the Eagles.

    Funny and sad thing is, I lived in the USA since 1989.
    Even served in my beloved USMC for 4 yrs from 1997-2001.
    Also listened to "Hotel California" many a drunken nights.

    But It took Lilbo to post and highlight the important facts for me to realize what teh song really means and its analogy to D&L.

    My favourite quote is this one

    I hate everything and everyone who even knows of this game.

    I almost fell off my chair laughing

  • qotsaqotsa Member UncommonPosts: 835
    So since today is the 5th.... Does DnL=DnL now? Can we all call it DnL finally? Or are there other excuses floating around? How is release day going? Is it all you thought it would be? Would you have rather spent that money taking your woman to the movies?

    I think the general sense is this is DNL but its not ALL of what DNL could be, so if we are just patient little boys and girls, we will have what we paid for as soon as Pierre and his cronies graduate from Game Development 101 until then we will pay premium price for a released game in order to help them beta test the alpha stage of the game, oh and help them fund their edjamacation with a premium monthly subscription while we help them beta test it too but dont tell them anything is wrong, report it as a bug but you arent supposed to report it as a bug cuz its not a Beta afterall, its DNL that will be the REAL DNL when the small, poor and working very hard students of Game Development who have failed at Business Management 101 graduate. ITs DNL but not ALL of DNL, thats coming in the next miracle patch.

    Now that the forum is back up, got another one.

    Entering this game for the first time is like excitedly squeezing thru the crowded front gates in a newly opened theme/fun park!!
    Giddy with excitement we hop on the rides with wide grins on our faces.... only for the malfunctioning equipment to violently jump the tracks and mercilessly fling us screaming over the park walls.

    I love how the majority of these DOOMSAYERS and anti DnL posts are by people with a join date of welll TODAY

    Interesting choice of words considering most of the people that has really been following this game from the start are either:
    • Left the D&L Community.
    • Banned from posting in the Official D&L Forums.
    • Those that are not "yet" banned are posting the truth about D&L.

    Aye, it aint us! If you are banned you cant post right? LOL

    I only go to read. I know full well I open my mouth and reply to some of that fanboi crap I WOULD be banned in a heartbeat.

    Sooo I guess you can assume those that got the game today, spent all of 30mins TRYING to play it after 4 hours of fiddling with the configurations and have already seen what a high faluting piece of flying garbage this is.

  • SassiassismeSassiassisme Member Posts: 59

    Too many !
    I must admit I merely glanced at the many awful posts at the dnl site before diving in and taking the bath that I did when I actually got in the game. It was just so hard that a game could be that bad. Well, they were right. So I went a little digging futher into the threads and just about evrything there is true and had happened to me when attempting this game.
    Just a few I liked:

    "What you feel should be added/removed?What should be added...hmmm.
    Decent artists who are not fresh
     out of kindergarten would help.
    Programmers who don't smoke crack on their lunch breaks"


    "I had 4 mobs agro me and knowing I couldn't take all 4 with my rusty err trusty dagger and my loin cloth at lvl 35, I ran away"


    "As of now, I am wishing that I had never spent $60 on a game that belongs on the $10 rack at Wal-Mart"

    and of course this one:




    "Quote:
         Should I get DnL?"
    Answer:
    "Should I get herpes?""

    Off topic for a sec, Naar, is that the dude from The Shield in your sig?
    Kick ass show that one, even if it's not him.
    And what's the text say at the top of your sig? I can't make it all out clearly.

    But yeah, back to the quotes. Is giving me a right hoot to help pass the time while I reinstall the hundreds of gigs of audio writing software on my new PC... ARRRGHHH!!!

    Hey I found a quote on those boards that I like a lot. Sums everything all up to.


    "Hello,


    Thank you for your email.


    Unfortunatly, we cannot do anything about this.


    Regards,


    Richard - Support Team"



  • BrianshoBriansho Member UncommonPosts: 3,586
    This one is good too.

    plz do not compare this to other MMO's. This is a crappy game. ATi
    users are getting no support or answers. For now only Nvidia users can
    play. I guess when the game was in BETA there were no ATi testers
    hmmm?? Plus this game just came out yet, it looks like its from 2001
    with the puke grafix. Not for nothing this game will be dead in 6
    months. God they don't even have distribution costs for a boxed item
    yet it still costs the same as boxed games. This game ripped off a lot
    of people.



    YOU BEED HAD....

    lol, bugged as it's just been released?? what was the beta for then?!?
    I'm really glad from reading these forums that I didn't pre-order. if it weren't for these boards, I'd likely be in the refund queue now.
    and as for potential, again, that's what the beta's for, realising the potential and preparing it to be the game they promise when it's available. As it is, the graphics look awful most of the time (some of the terain reminded me of the old Vista programs on the Amiga...), and with a totally unfinished crafting system even, sounds like they couldn't have made a worse release if they'd tried.
    I'll still keep an eye out, should things change over the next few months and the potential somehow be realised, but I don't hold much hope now for it, think I'll devote my time to DAoC and Guild Wars instead.
