Darkfall: Beta Update

The folks at Darkfall have made a small announcement about the current status of their beta test. Currently they are letting testers in based on hardware configurations so they can test how Darkfall runs on different machines.
Hello, this is a small update on our current activities:
Since September the 22nd we've been running tests to make sure that Darkfall runs properly on a variety of hardware configurations. Any external people are being selected strictly by their hardware configuration and are selected and let in gradually. Absolutely no other criteria come into play other than hardware. Also, we are not playtesting. If you are selected for this hardware test you will be notified by email to the address associated with your Darkfall community forum account.
Once we've concluded this phase, we will gradually allow more people in based on various other criteria associated with the testing needs. We may not announce the start of every phase. All the testing up to the open beta phase is protected by NDA.

woohoo !!!
DARKFALL BETA HAZ BEGIN !!!
From vaporware... to failware.
You obviously don't intend playing, so why even post. If you have nothing good to say.....
Core i5 13600KF, BeQuiet Pure Loop FX 360, 32gb DDR5-6000 XPG, WD SN850 NVMe ,PNY 3090 XLR8, Asus Prime Z790-A, Lian-Li O11 PCMR case (limited ed 1045/2000), 32" LG Ultragear 4k Monitor, Logitech G560 LightSync Sound, Razer Deathadder V2 and Razer Blackwidow V3 Keyboard
Failware?
After all the arguments against df fans for claiming it will be great when it is not out yet and now you think you are allowed to just assume what it will be like?
(Anti-DF trolls have gained +1 to hypocrisy)
I am a skeptical supporter of DF. I am not a fanboi nor a troll. I seek the truth in every discussion, and I am truly sorry if I mistakenly state a fallacy.
Im realy hoping to get an mail soon
But when they say their looking for certain hardware, I guess it will mainly be looking at people wih low-end pcs, so they can check the minimum specs for the game

if i get banned for this it is worth it but i probably wont get banned so here goes.......
are you serious? really you havnt even seen a game play video outside of the trailer which was really good and you say it sucks. people like you are the people who ruin the genre want to know why? you say what ever you can to make every other game fail other than the one you are playing by going on forums for hours a day saying how much a game sucks even though you know very little or nothing about it.
WOOOOHOOOOO /SIGNED
It's not real software till it's released... that said I'm thrilled they are finally going to hit Beta.
As to your comment: You are still an idiot for claiming it will be 'great' when you haven't played it yet. I'm just as excited as any other person who's been hoping that this would actually reach a beta state but I'm not about to shout that this is the greatest thing since sliced bread until I actually have a few weeks playing it under my belt.

More smokescreens from Adventurine....again some of you jumping on the bandwagon take their word for it. Sorry most of us operate in reality.
While I am still a bit skeptical based on previous experience (clan beta starting soon! 3 years ago!), there have been nothing but positive things going on with this game recently.
Maybe, just maybe, it will get enough things right that we'll have a real MMO on our hands here, for the first time in years. WAR was it for me--I can't play another American ez-mode cookie-cutter MMO, they make me ill.
Hopefully i'll get into the beta at some point.
Wrong Tarim. I never made that claim. I was only pointing out that many people have taken to bashing df fans for assuming things about the game and now that same group is assuming it will fail.
And Ozmodan: What makes your version of reality better than anyone elses? If you have special knowledege that no one else is privy to than please reveal it.

You sir, fail at life.
Ok you really need to rethink that or go get some help

the trailor was neat but it was compressed way to much
Well i hope they will open the beta soon, cuz ive been registred and done everything, followed the news, watched all teh movies on youtube... i didnt really under stand their beta registration, well i have windows vista and putted my DXDiag.txt in there but ive waited for a month now and nothing has really happend... i would be happy if they just opened a beta for the forum members so their fans could tell em what they think, but it seems not.
hope they will release it soon!
if it wasn't already painfully obvious before this announcement....see sig....

Sorry, I can't help if some of you go off the deep end. Adventurine has been announcing things then delaying them forever. NO one has actually played this game beyond the developers. NO one has really seen it. Has not been seen at any shows, has not been reviewed by any journalists.
Point proven. I have been following this game for years, If you are not a bit skeptical yourself you are a bit naive to say the least.
Until we actually get reports of people actually playing this game it is the same old Adventurine throwing hype and fluff at those of you begging for it.
So yes, despite some claims to the contrary, it is still vaporware.
Fool. They are already inviting people. Non-company people. That means it is no longer vaporware.
We will not get "reports" of people playing, because of the NDA. Until it is lifted, or until you yourself get into the beta, you will know not one thing about how the game plays. Aventurine is not really large enough to have a show presence, and we will likely see player reviews when the NDA drops sooner than journalist reviews, as this is not a big-name title.
You're like a guy standing on the ground during an air-show, fingers in his ears screaming "LALALALALA NO WAY PEOPLE WILL EVER FLY LALALALALA" while planes whiz over you head.

The announcement doenst state that people invited will be playing, read properly, hardware testing, your hardware testing, that's all this announcement is about, I can do hardware testing with cpu-z.

Please, please, please tell me that you are just kidding there. Because nobody can be THAT dense.

Hahahaha this is pure classic statement. This is number 1 signature quote for sure.
Funny how all this silly hype about a game NO one has seen gets people so upset.
When Adventuring produces the goods and we have some actual reviewers looking at it, you can then get excited about the game. Until then I suggest you don't be so naive and jump on a bandwagon that may or may not exist.

the announcement clearly says "We are not playtesting"
I'm still a bit careful about this game, at least until the beta is running and we got a real release date.
Right now my hopes are in Spellborn (and Guildwars 2, but thats more based on the programming team there, their past games talks for themselves, GW, Warcraft 3, Diablo 1).
Anyone knows any games the DF guys or some of them worked on before? Usually hints on how well they van program a game.
I would not call DF vaporware but Im always careful...
