    I hate to agree but I have to agree. We've been watching this game since I was in Shadowbane. That was 2002. This game is not coming out. Ever.

    Have they projected a new release date in Q2 2007?
     
    Did it make that?
    Did they announce the 30,october 2007 as a releasedate ?
    Did they make that ?
    Did they announce the 25,march 2008 as a releasedate ?
    Did they make that ?
    Yes, No, Yes, No, Yes, No, Yes, No, Yes, I dunno' yet
    The funny thing, back in 2005 they (by mistake i guess) they said;'
    "“Age of Conan – Hyborian Adventures” is scheduled for a Windows release in March 2008. The game won the Gamespot award as “Best MMO” of E3 2005, as well as being runner-up as the “Most Innovative Game of Show”."
    They should have sticked to that. ..
     
     

     

    Haven't replied to Xris before now because I'm still trying to figure out wtf AOC has to do with Darkfall.  Once I figure that out I'll bother replying.  :)

    Thought you were a clever guy but let me spoonfeed it to you;

    You argue DF is Vaporvare because of delays. I provide you an example of a game full of delays, yet not defned as vaporware thus your logic is well wrong. Unless you give AoC VW status as well.

    Do you ?

    MMM well when AOC is approaching 9 years from it's initial design date and 8 years since it's announcement that it was being developed I'll consider it.

    not to question to much of your logic but...

    assuming that you havent read anything other than these forums then i guess you can be right. had you read the posts from the dev teams behind either of these games you would know that both teams start thinking of the ideas and tossing somethign around twords the end of the 90s and that they started development (and im not talking about the 3 programers that groups use to help build and pitch an idea) in 2003. funcom openly states this as well as claus refering to the time when razorwax was optioned by aventurine. both have missed a number of dates but teh thing that seperates them are nipples... i mean a tangable beta and following release date.

    dont get me wrong : i dont see darkfall making release anytime soon since they are now going back on their ideas about self publishing and talking with a few publishers about said topic. once picked up by a publisher they will have to change a number of things that the publisher sees as a problem and then take another step back to making what tehy want to release untill there is finaly a happy medium met.


    but dont say that this has been so far behind other games that are so much more 1337 than this. and simply bank on the fact that no MMO has a set release date untill the stores have coppies in the back warehouses.

    Been waiting for this game a long, long.. long time... I've given up hope, but still keep checking back on every now and then... guess there's always hope.

    I am going to have to check back on this thread in a few years.......

  • Xris375Xris375 Member Posts: 1,005

    Reviving old threads to make a point, how original. I bet there are some posts the devs of AoC  and WAR wished they dind't do either. I for one look forward to the day DF is released, I'll use a whole day reviving old threads from ppl who thought they knew better

    First LOL at this post...it's funny to read these things years and years later. It happens in every game forum you look back and see how excited people were before it came out, and then look at current posts of people bashing the crap out of the game and saying it sucks. In this case it's a little funnier/sadder because some of the same people who were blindly following this game back then have created new accounts and are blindly following it now. They should make a church for darkfall and start sending around the collection plate so these people can put their money where their mouths are and maybe help fund this game getting made.

     

    In response to Xris who keeps wanting to crap all over AoC and call it Vaporware; I have one thing to say to you....Preorder....yep preorders. Somehow you can preorder AoC, and actually you can preorder a collector's edition. I don't know how many vapor ware games you've seen that allowed preorders, but I'll tell you I've seen 0. Reason being you ask? Well I'll tell you! The reason they don't offer preorders is because they are not close to release, and as such they cannot offer to preorder the game because they have no idea when it will be done.

    Actually, along those same lines I have something else to tell you. AoC has been taken to many MANY game conventions and shows, and have allowed reputable people from the Media to play. In fact, I was watching G4 the other night and low and behold AoC was being played on the screen of my TV!!!

    When was the last time Darkfall was on TV being played for my eyes to watch?

    WWII online, Planetside, Tabula Rasa?

    Are those games figments of my imagination, or do they actually exist, and have FPS controls?

    Do you ?

    Unlike Darkfail AOC has been reviewed by several magazine companies. It has bee taken to gaming shows and Conventions and actually played by real people. Also its on Pre-order. And its in Beta. But if you ignore all this then i guess his logic is wrong rather than yours which is Deluded.

    Another great example of Moore's Law. Give people access to that much space (developers and users alike) and they'll find uses for it that you can never imagine. "640K ought to be enough for anybody" - Bill Gates 1981

    darkfall has been seen by alot more people than you think just not are all know bccause of NDAS

    God damnit! NO!

     

    Other than from that guy who went there and said the devs were pretty confident in saying "2008" we have nothing.

    I hope it does release in 08, preferably a quick beta in the summer and a release by the end.

     

    But no one knows, yet, and the bashers hop in here saying there will be no release, which doesn't bother me one bit... they have valid points, and I have valid points about the fact that arguing with these kind of people is absolutely useless and pathetic because they run out of what to say and often start random gibberish.

    Ah yes, the seven-year NDA. Of course that explains it.

    We've seen how ethical people are on these forums. No one would ever, ever, ever, ever consider breaching an NDA. It just doesn't happen. Ever.

    And just because this thread started almost FOUR years ago, that means nothing. Nothing at all. ;)

    Oh sure, and I bet your gonna tell us that Santa Clause isn't real either right? Pffft, someone is delusional!

    My point was that if you use the same arguments the haters use against DF, AoC looks like vaporware. I know AoC isn't vaporware, it just looks like it when you apply facts out of content.

    "blind fan boi" isn't just a DF thing. It happens everywhere, including the AoC community. I never said AoC was vaporware, I only stated it looked like vaporware when you looked at the facts out of context. Just as DF isn't vaporware. Preorder isn't always a good thing either. How do you know what you buy unless you have tried it ? Chances are that this game may be overhyped and that endgame might not be as good as the devs have stated it is etc. etc. You may indeed have bought a crappy game and there is no money back guarantee because you have gotten a game.  In DF there will be no preorder. No money will exchange hands before the customer has been be given the chance to test the full game before you buy. I don't think you can find a better anti-vaporware arguments :)

    Oh and I remeber Funcom being on national TV, refusing to talk about game addiction
