The caster looked like he was holding a dildo lol. But hey im not a DF fan anymore from all the shortcomings. And whats up with everyone looking the same! Sheshh, I hate that in MMO's, people all look alike with no differences in armor or appearances. And Shadowbane had much better PVP then this game now that I seen this.
I agree with the comments that this video probably did the game a disservice in that it may not be reflective of a better game. I also agree AV should have let this be shown with boosted characters so a better feel of the games pvp was displayed.
As a aside, the graphics are very very bland. However im hopeful this is because of the nature of the video. At any rate release is just a few days away!
Hold down attack button run in circles bunny hop (optional) ??? Profit (loot)
Seriously its not even the fact that the graphics were shit but the gameplay looked like shit. I hope for the sake of the people who waste their money on this game that you can at least run it in windowed mode so you can look at porn while the combat takes place.
1.) So how is that any different in any other game? Are you mad because of instead of pressing 1-10 you have to click constantly? Atleast in this game you have to strike at the appropriate time because you cant go swinging your weapon around and hope you hit them.
2,3.) You run around in circles in WoW/WAR/every other damn MMO out there and you bunny hop in whatever game allows you to jump most of the time (sure there are some games that it is not really useful in, heres an example that it is good in - WoW)
4.) Ok. . .
5.) You gain some sort of reward in other games for killing people.
Seriously, what the hell was the point of your post? You clearly didnt think your post through, because everything that you said is in other games. Come on, atleast try to bash this game with intelligence instead of trying to come up with crap.
WHy not jsut run around naked and attack people?? If the only punishment for dying is dropping your gear why not just go naked or wear your noob gear?? You'd still build up your skills and theres no reason to fear dying......
Like someone else said earlier in this thread. No comment. Don't go twisting that as a good or bad thing. I just have nothing to say about the video, be it good or bad.
In War - Victory. In Peace - Vigilance. In Death - Sacrifice.
Dont mean to be rude but do you just post to gain more postcount? seriously this could have been added to all the other posts you made in this thread already.
Its plain to see how many corners their developers cut in order to _TRY_ and remain lag free, good luck with that! Otherwise DF will remain niche which i believe is what the company wants.
The graphics in a game are not everything, but people have said hte grphics in this were as good as AoC and to be honest these look like circa 1999 graphics. Also, the combat takes to long, there is no actice blocking from what I can like we see in Mount and Blade and didn't Tasos say it would be in there. Also it seems there is only one form of spell attack - lame. The sound in the game really, seriously blows. Game is going to be totally niche like PotBS.
It looks fine for what it is, but as soon as the video started, the character models and movement reminded me of the intro for the original Team Fortress Quake mod. A little more polished, but very similar.

Thanks for explaining to the people on this forum even more dense than yourself to what I was getting at. It was explicitly stated but implied. For quite some time now all you've heard from people is how revolutionary this game is, yet even in your defense for the game you point out the glaring similarities in basic core gameplay, and more specifically by that I mean lack of depth.
I'm just amazed, and this goes for other FPS games to, that in this year of 2009 developers still haven't worked in inertia when turning around and lazily just allow players to turn their avatar as fast as their mouse allows.
Would think that their would be more tactics in fighting if body mass had something to do with turn rate so being a 2.4 m giant at 200kg would make you turn slower than if your a 1m 30kg freaking fary.
Anyways, looks a bit dated but will probably cater to some people.

Thanks for the video, you saved me 60$, this is definitly not for me. I need more immersive graphics and environment for a mmo to grab my attention.
Thanks, and good luck.

Cannot see where player skill is needed there.
Oh well..back to waiting for another game again.
That looks like crap . Does the dwarf remind anyone else of Mario Bro's when he gets the big hammer? LOL FTL
they sorta look like lego men, maybe Lego should sue
Lol, i was thinking playmobile men.

See that video, so much better and doesn't make people hate the game more before it's released.
Watched the OPs video
not impressed......at all
........and this game was in development how long? o.0

I agree this look terrible. That said, the game looks much much better on my computer. Guess he's playing low texture, low res to be able to video it.

Heh, I was laughing the whole time watching this.

Heck, I'll play this as soon as it hits NA just for this reason.

Looks horrible and I swear you stole that bleed sound effect from WoW.

That was freakin' hilarious. They need to put the NDA cover back on this one. It's still pink in the middle.
I was embarrassed just watching that. My gosh man! You apologists crack me up.
