The video has over 600Mb... no way i'm downloading that before having "alot" of feedback on it
With all do respect but I just downloaded the 668mb movie and I am left speachless after watching it. The quality of the game looks terribad from what I just wittnessed , I thank aventurine for setting me free after 6+ years of following this piece of trash in the making. The video is clear enough to show me that the game only has one good thing and that is complexity. Everything else like Animations, mechanics, graphics, are garbage, I felt as if I was watching Everquest.
PS. I'd stick with WAR just my opinon.
What is it that you don't like exactly? This game looks incredibly fun! Real time combat, naval warfare, huge sieges, enormous world, freedom! What are you smoking seriously? Animations? Graphics? Come on, these things are cosmetics.
Darkfall fanboys do not realize how much grind there will be in the game. Sure you could level up nice and fast but how many man-months do you think it will take to build a boat much less a town that covers the entire crafting tree(including boat requirements).
The most rabid of Darkfall fanboys will end up leaving the game and the community will become pretty tame but pretty paranoid as well because their holdings can disappear.
I think you just don't have a clue about this game to say things like that. Have a look here for more info about DF : darkfallonline.com
Darkfall will not be your typical grindfest mmorpg. It might not be for everyone... but it sure looks like it will be the best game I ever played.

Obviously he likes spamming abilities while waiting for their cooldown, and not having to worry about mean ole PKs interrupting his search for epic loots.
Suggesting WAR instead of DFO is like suggesting Gorgonzola when someone asks for a good car. They are two different things. Regardless of graphics, WAR and DFO are completely different at a core level.
Everyone who says this game doesn't look that good is insane.
The graphics are OK, pretty average. But if you consider this game is 100% skill-based with a player-driven economy and the combat is 100% real-time then there is nothing close to it on the market.
If this game truly launches this year, which until today I did not believe it would, there is nothing that will come close to the innovation that this offers. WAR and AoC will be jokes when compared to a 100% open sandbox world.
This is truly the game that thousands of us have been waiting years for. Good job to the staff over in Greece for putting all this together, amazing gameplay video.
I watched the new videos on youtube. I wasn't blown away. /shrug
i have to agree unfortunately....for me.....its was pure "Meh"
i really don't see what the hype is about this game.
The hype is over the fact that it gives you more freedom than any other MMO has ever done. The ability to build ships, fleets, cities, mines, craft any weapons or armor, have FPS combat in an MMO. The fact that you can pick up any skill you want and arent restricticed by classes or anything like that. or that you can go anywhere you wish in a giant open world. Sure the graphics arent that great but who gives a shit about graphics in an mmo as long as they are playable.
but we still havent really seen any of this. On paper this game looks amazing...but this saviour video they produced...looked really staged, and does not contain alot of in game video...in fact looks like very little.
Why did they blow past crafting so fast? was literally only as few seconds, as well as a whole lot of other things they are supposedly hyping. Which is why i keep asking...whats the hype still about,....all they showed REALLY is the combat animations and people running around, some ships firing, but that could be any game....it doesnt stand out yet.
So what you demand is that they show you the WHOLE game before its released?
You dont want to find out anything by yourself? Amazing.

no i love exploration and discovery...i am not buying another AoC which didnt show anything prior to launch and turned out to be a flop
Come back and tell me there isn't grind in darkfall after seeing the boat construction requirements(resources) and the requirements for all the infrastucture to make them. The total requirements will be along the lines of man months, but it shouldn't be to bad in some cases since the a decent sized guild can pump out those kind of man hour requirements.
It's not a jab at you since you are probably familar with the game and other sandboxes. But I can assure you right now that there will be people coming back a couple weeks after beta and a couple weeks after release going WTF this isn't what they said it was since they didn't read.
I find it amazing that by 2020 first world countries will be competing to get immigrants.
Just watched it... wow. That is sad. It IS vaporware, you cannot justify that horrid video as 'good,' What a joke.
"It IS vaporware"... Do you even know what vaporware is? How can you watch a gameplay video and call it vaporware? That is an oxymoron to say the least.
You are watching a GAMEPLAY video while calling the game vaporware...

You people never cease to amaze me.
Something is vaporware until it actually comes out. Videos don't mean anything. There have been videos for Duke Nukem Forever, yet the game is still vaporware.

That's not true. Vaporware means there is no game. Darkfall has proven there IS a game. Now whether or not you people are going to like the game is another story, but it isn't vaporware.
People who complain about the video being "not that good" or some variation of that because of the mediocre animations and effects seem to have completely missed the point. As in it went way over their heads.
The other thing being this "you'll have to grind your boat" crap, which is equally stupid. If you got everything for nothing, there would be no fun. The entire idea is to work together, as a team (note the word team) with your guild/alliance/friends whatever. It's not meant to be a one-man show with his super 50 gun ship and sword of doom slaying hordes of enemies.
Those little sailboats and such will likely be cheap and fairly accessible. But the large navies and warships aren't meant for one person anymore than you'd expect one player to run his own city.
But from what i saw in the video you linked, darkfall looks like a load of crap to me. The game looks horrible... And I must say, the features dont make up for the look of the game.
Lets get this first out of the system: graphics SUCK!!! I dont really care about graphics, but anyone saying the graphics are good/rule/are the best, needs their head check. Graphics are terrible!
Then the classes/skills, or whatever it is... does it even exist? I could not tell anyone from anyone else, except it seemed it was: melee VS caster. There was nothing else.
Now the "crafting".... whwhahtt.huhuh? Was that second of showing the crafting ANYTHING? As far as the video shows, there is NO crafting.
Now... hmm, the boats look expensive resource wise, except, they get blowned out of the water in a few seconds... Or it's not worth to build them, or the sea is filled with a million ships.
Same with the "hovercrafts" VS the castle... 3 miserable hovercrafts need to shoot the wall 3 times for it to crumble down...
... WTF?
Then the several "combat" parts, that showed some melee wacking at someone else, and a sort of 'mage' trowing fireballs/frostballs at someone else.... THEN WHAT?
And, as far as i could tell, there was one NPC... 1...
If it isnt like that, video showed even less...
Bottom line, even if the game exists, even if it last more then 6 months, aparently it sucks, or, at minimun, the people assigned to make the video, should be arrested.
That said, funny how now about 80% thinks the video rocks, but if you show anything similar without the "tag": Darkfall, it would get the most horrid comments.

Vaporware it has been and vaporware it will remain until it can be played.
Vapourware my ass!
We who kept the faith and ignored the clowns have finally got our video footage - and damn good video footage it is too!
Proud Master CH -
Sorry,
Proud FORMER Master CH...
my toon was untimely converted into something more Star Warsy
I had my doubts but it does look outrageously good fun compared to what else in the works.

R.I.P. City of Heroes and my 17 characters there
The vid looks better in HD, overall it all looks fantastic if it delivers it will be a pretty awesome niche game for the PVP community to enjoy.
