Under normal circumstances, yes. But this is just another hiccup in an already suspicious development. Aventurine are running out of time, and are haemorrhaging fanboys fast.
is a good thing if they delay the game till 2010 or 2011? you know, more time = better game inst it?
The only thing, IMHO, that should worry people a little (insofar as the game's chance to meet the new release date) is that the official statement mentioned that they'll be implementing enhancements that weren't originally going in at release.
Actually, the official forum has been gaining almost 2K new subs/beta applicants per day since the release announcement, and from the fee trial/delat announcement of yesterday, they gained 3K new subs. So it would appear if anything that Darkfall's popularity is still increasing rapidly.
It's really just same-old same-old: the kids cry and whine, the adults shrug and go back to what they were doing.
It's BAD because now I have to wait a whole 'nother month to laugh at dissapointed fanbois!
IMO is a good thing. The last thing the MMORPG community need its another too early launch of a not finished game (i know a MMORPG is never finished but hope you understand me)
I don't care at all if something was promised or not, if Tasos lied or not, and all this garbage trolls and fan boys are used to argue about. The only thing important to me about Darkfall is if it is going to launch some day and deliver and I'll enjoy the game or not because a lot of important information about the game play and mechanics is still hidden or contradictory.
Then i prefer they delay the game a year before they launch too earlier. This is not just for DF this is for any game. Thought we got enough bad experiences recently to have learned something about it.
How can anybody deny it's a good thing. The longer they are in developement the better. I personally think a release in 2080 should be the goal. Quantum computers you know (and abundant perfect genetically engineered chicks).
Plus we would have at least 2 new screenshots by then and an interview conducted by a distant cousin of Tasos' who runs some obscure website.
Well any delay would depend on why?If there is mechanics that are not working then for sure you need to delay it.If their structure PVP combat is not working,then it needs to be tested with feedback from players,that is if there really is any beta testing going on.The combat will no doubt be argued about extensively in the forums as players always want their class to be the strongest with little care for the balance of a game.
There will be a ton of flamers when comes to customization,you can bet on that.It takes a ton of resources and time to make a highly customized game.Everything that you can customize has to go into the rest of the coding making for again a lot of work.
I hope they were/are smart enough to put in a mechanic so that when players get stuck somewhere[and they will] they will be able to warp out to home base or something.
At this point in time,i would say the ONLY thing that should need testing is the combat,and that needs to be tested by real players.I mean really after this length of time ,most of the CORE mechanics SHOULD work properly,only little things they may have added for content,should need tweaking or fixing.
The other big problem i can think of is the release.If this game is all about time=reward and all about your level,then imagine the PO'd players that can't get in for several weeks .while others are in there leveling to level 50 lmao,this would spell the finish of the game.So they have to have a launch that is prepared and ready to go for everyone,or have seperate servers for different launches.I see this small time developer struggling at launch ,i expect it to be botched in one fashion or another.
