Darkfall will be the one

bongloadsbongloads Member UncommonPosts: 381

This is the game that should of hit the market instead of WoW. This will redefine PvP, PvE, and character developement systems... all while having a player driving economy and being a sandbox... some minor downsides to the game but fuck it, this game has all the features to be an amazing game for years to come and to set the standard of what this industry was when EQ and UO where the big guns.

 

 

Someone wrote this for hype and i couldn't have said it better myself.

    yes this is all fun and games and i really like darkfall but for you not to get flamed 1,000000000 times on this forum for saying this they will have to show some proof.

  • xxlilDevilxxxxlilDevilxx Member UncommonPosts: 245

    Ya good concept on paper, but where are the proof? Isnt there is a video preview coming? How many actual information are there? All the ideas dont do any good if they are not implemented (AoC example).

    from the title :

    Darkfall will be the one

    a) a true game to play

    b) another vaporware

    These forums seem more full of people hoping for games not to come out than come out.  If any of them have actually been following darkfall's developments they'd realize how retarded they sound.

    I disagree.  I don't like WoW but I think WoW had let a lot of new people to get into the MMO gaming.

    I don't see anything abd in having non sandboxes MMOs.  Many people don't like sandboxes.  Other do.  Some of us like both.

    This game won't redifine PvP, PvE and neither character development.  This game copied most of its features.  If you had said something like UO defined skill based system, that would had made more sense (of course, it would had been discussable too).  DFO won't difine anything.  DFO will bring back a lot of fetures that some people like.  And that's good.

    FFA PvP success will depend a lot in how Aventurine designed DFO.  If they do it badly, we will jsut have another FFA PvP game that will just mutate into having "restrictions" to the FFA.

    Which is the only FFA PvP game that had stayed like it was originaly?  SB?  I can't think of any.  I don't remember if EvE had the safe zones at start, I think it did... so it has enough restriction to not call it a pure FFA, imo.

    The driving economy will depend a lot on the design and we know nothing about it.  All we know is a list of written features... and there resides the problem.  Written text is hype.  I hope the game release and I hope the public beta is before the end of the year.  So we will know what players say and we will know the truth.

    And EQ is not the best thing to compare with DFO.

    I am sad that AoC was a failure.  I am happy that I believe WAR will be a success.  I hope DFO, Mortal Online, etc are success too.  I want options to play!

    I saw your post in WAR forums.  I saw your post here asking for hype this game.  I hope you understand my opinion on all this: MMOs aren't football teams.  There are millions of potential customers.  Each day more and more people get internet... youngens get older and start playing online each day.  If a game is good, you will have a lot of targets.  This is not a competition where "my MMO" defeated "your MMO" because I am not owner of any of the companies that produce MMOs.  If I had stocks, then I would be diffierent HAHAHA

    So this is my opinion, I dont see this like a competetion and I wish DFO the best of lucks, if it ever release, because I may enjoy it.  For now Aventurine credebility for me it's going down... they have the rest of the year to, at least, release beta so I will regain faith in them.  Meantime, you may try to play SB or Ryzom (once they let people create new accounts) or EvE or some other MMO... there are games similar to DFO.

    Lots of words, little do disprove the opening statement.

    Darkfall will be the one...

    To successfully build a small fanbase and never release.

    Disprove?  I wrote my opinion not a disprove to anything.  I didnt look for disproving anything.  I see you are not ready to discuss anything because you are not ready to listen others opinions.  I did see some incorrect points in your post and I did point them out (like comparing EQ to DFO).

    After seeing your post history, I consider you a troll.  You went to bash WAR (I guess becuase its the next releasing MMO... you would had bash Aion or Mortal online or any other MMO if they wetre about to release), jsut because they arent "your MMO" and you have to win... who knows what... but you have to win something.  Then came here asking for Hyping DFO.  DFO doesnt need your hype.  It will be a success or a failure on its own merits.

    As I consider you to be a troll, I will not discuss with you anymore because there is nothing possible to disccus with a troll.  Not in this thread or any other.

    You mean the ones like me that have followed the game for years yet nothing really new seems to come out about the game? Perhaps if you had followed the game for more then 30 minutes you might actually see how Tasos has manipulated the fanbase to produce hype without actually giving any concrete evidence it is in the game.

    Every time the masses start to raise their voices in anger Tasos just makes the carrot bigger without delivering on what he has already said.

    Stick to the official DF boards with the delusional fanboys who think this game is the second coming of Christ. There is a good chance that when this game is released it will have a life cycle closer to shadowbane then any of the successful MMOs.

    They're nothing more than outdated crappy looking alpha videos that show maybe 5% gameplay in any of them.

    It would literally not take any longer than maybe 2-3 months to produce EVERYTHING in those videos combined.

    Yes mr. troll account, whatever you reckon....

     

    Maybe if you ever actually READ the developer journals, you'd know that DF is a PVP sandbox game, where combat and conquest are the contral gameplay drivers, and as such, they have been very well demonstrated and described.



     

    have they?  So you think a bunch of poorly animated and modelled characters standing around swinging weapons at each other is a "well demonstrated and described"  game???

    You're almost as pathetic as Darkfall. In fact you're more pathetic because you actually buy into the hype and believe in something that simply isn't even there to look at. You just fill in the MASSIVE GAP of info with your imagination and call it FACT.

    So based on your description of Darkfall we're all just waiting to play Quake 3 Arena online.

    Sounds great.

    Personally I am still waiting for them to actually demonstrate that they even have 1 core feature of this game functioning in any kind of form considering they haven't shown even 1 in the last 7 years yet.

    Based on all the videos ever released to date --- Darkfall is nothing more than a generic combat system with the ability to ride on horses.

    I wonder where everything else is like ohhhhh I don't know..

    The city building system

    The siege system

    The crafting system

    The hundreds of dungeons

    The hundreds of skills and spells

    The character creation system

    and god knows what other new features they've added since I wrote this.

    You fanboys need to learn not to argue since the Darkfall devs give you absolutely nothing to argue with other than blind faith.

    Now run along back to the official boards so you can slip back ino your delusion.

    why only one?  why does there always have to be THE one.

     

    cant we all play nice and share?

    -Changeable worlds
    -Solid non level based game
    -Sharks with lasers attached to their heads

    Dude if you're not seriously excited by the gameplay shown in the 2007 & 2006 videos, then you're following the wrong game. From a recent dev journal: "The closest I can dare to describe the current experience is

    that Darkfall plays like a massive fantasy "Battlefield."

     

    I don't know what you think Darkfall is supposed to be, but I have a feeling it's not what Darkfall actually is.

    if you say so *yawns* this is getting rather boring


    then go find a different game...one that will come out...and constantly troll and defend that one since it will probably release before Darkfall ever does lol....god stupid trolls....anyways!!!!

    Darkfall will be the one...ya it will be the one alright, the one that just keeps going...and going...and going...hell my kid will have grand kids that will come to this site reading more updates from Tasos claiming that the game will release THAT year...truly sad.

  • javacjavac Member Posts: 1,175

    The official release date for Darkfall is this year. There's never been an official release date until now.

    I think it's exactly what has been told the last 7 years. Unfortunately nothing that has been actually shown backs any of it up. Other than possibly 5% of what has been said.

    They have never demonstrated an actual game being played like what they describe. All they've shown is one scripted camera flying around some buildings and terrain and another scripted trailer video showing a very basic generic combat system.

    Is this what Darkfall is???? Sure looks that way at this point.

    and what planet are you from again sir...

    1: 2008 is NOT a official date...the term of "official date" in gaming requires a month AND a day to be specified. when a dev says "2008" its a escape plan...so when things dont go their way they can easily go thru the end of the year feeling safe since they never promised a firm date to release this year.

    2: ROFL!!!!!!! in the 8 years they have been developing this game...yes...they have said the same thing almost year after year.

    Insulting, flaming and trolling come from both sides, i doubt the mods have a liking for vaportrolls or fanbois. The thread was locked because interior images were showed, rendering the thread pointless and mods locked it before turning into a heated argument about the publisher/upcoming video/graphics/Razorwax or whatever.

    He showed interior screenshots that were from the year 2002!! at most 2003.

    There hasn't been a single interior screenshot from this game shown since then which is beyond strange considering the game is supposed to have hundreds of dungeons...

    could it be their portal system is fucked up with their engine and they cannot even do interiors properly????

    See how this raises questions?

    If anyone doesn't thnk its strange that 99.9% of the screenshots from this game are always outside than I dunno

    take a look

    You're just getting overly technical so you can sound right.  Kind of like how Tasos is always overly vague so he can always sound right.

    Hinting at a release date is just as bad as actually saying it will be out on this day and year. There's really no difference. People take it as being official if it comes from the developers.

    There;s absolutely no reason to say "we're shooting for" this release date or "we're looking at" this release date if you don't really believe you can make that date.
