    Wow, you really are pathetic if that's the only good input you can put into the Darkfall forums anymore.

    I may buy DF if AV can get it's act together by the NA release. You have no clue what anyone wants... this is what YOU want... well sorry to disappoint, but I am not going away any time soon. I will continue to bring reason to the unreasonable no matter how much you bitch and moan about it.

    The game has potential, but it falls far short of the hype TASOS himself instigated. You want to pay to play in a beta, by all means continue to do so. That is your right... what no fanbot has been able to explain however is how they can spend so much time policing the boards when they should be playing a game they proclaim is the second coming of MMOs.

    And to think some of you have over 500 posts. Blah

     

    yup, that must be what so many darktards are spending the entire first week of darkfall's release POSTING on every forum they can find, INSTEAD of playing.

     

    i don't think most of us even realized there were any forums in existence, the first week that wow released.

     

    tells me worlds about the game.  but it's nice to see that some are now posting how long they've played it, since it's been pointed out that if the game WERE that great, then the darktards would be playing instead of poastering.

     

    and to think... you could be playing instead of trolling the internets... yeah, game must be wuuuuunderfail.



     

    flamer    ref! Excessive flaming   you must be flame retard ant

     

    every SINGLE time "vapor ware troll" has been posted... has been in a derogatory, flame baiting fashion.  if darktard is flaming, then every single darktard that has posted 'vaporware troll' needs to be reported for harrassment, flaming, hatred and ignorance of the term 'vaporware'.

     

    should we really start reporting everyone that has incessantly flamebated with the harrassing term 'vaporware troll"?

     

    i mean, if they had a good game to play, wouldn't they be playing it the FIRST WEEK of release?  oh wait, av does everything different, so good MMOs have fans that play nonstop upon retail, av's game has players that post nonstop upon retail.   gotcha.

    could we please get correspondent writers and moderators, on the eve forum at mmorpg.com, who are well-versed on eve-online and aren't just passersby pushing buttons? pretty please?

    2 darktardians would not stop, our telling them to go away cuz we did NOT care, just made them "poasterify" MOARZ.

    3 wow came out, we played it, never bother poasterificating

    4 as recently as WAR.... it came out and the first few days we PLAYED... didn't post.

    5 all you see is dartardian poasterificating this entire first week about how great the game is... INSTEAD of playing it

    6 go play this wunderfail game, stop poasting.  every poast that is made by someone that COULD be playing, tells me that all the games we've played at retail.. PLAYED at retail, instead of posting at retail... was/is worlds better than the darkfall forum posting game.

    Do you know what mature people do when others do things to them?? they be the bigger persona and do not stoop to there level. otherwise they become just as bad.

    Cool!  Maybe when other people visit this site, they'll also read that there is no way to currently purchase the game and play!  Maybe they'll read that there's only around 5,000 people allowed in game right now too.  Maybe they'll read that the company is working on a permanent solution to their billing database problems.  Careful what you wish for ...

    the game is down for 2 hours for a patch.

    they are incredibly fast at fixing things,

    So OP, nice try, but your words are empty.

     

    The pvp is great.  Roaming alone in enemy territory is great.  Hiding behind a bush or a rock or in a tree without a radar spoiling your position is great.  Jumping down from a tree and onto someone's mount when they get off to store it at the bank is great (I never did that, but it happened to me).  Mounted combat is great.  It does awesome damage... but with the additional risk of losing something worth around 300-400 gold.  Sniping someone in the back with a few arrows when they turn and try to heal is awesome.  Sticking to someone and hammering them with melee when they try to chug a pot is very satisfying.  Dodging most of your opponents attacks even when their weapon has a wider hit radius then yours is very fun.  Backing up when you're in trouble and popping a heal while dodging arrows is a rush.  Nailing a mount on low hp with mana missle and bringing it down is life completing.  Beating two or three people who are very well equipped while you have crap on is amazing.  Looting the two or three well-equipped people after you beat them is as sweet as honey.  Making a living by selling the weapons you loot of people is great.  Killing farmers (mostly afk/macroing) and looting their resources is great.  Taking said resources and turning them into potions or arrows or profit is pretty satisfying as well.  I almost forgot, decapitating someone who is trying to run away from you is plain awesome.

     

    Ok... that sounds pretty good, like a giant PVP arena to fight each other to no end. Guess this must be great for some.

    How were we wrong?  Only 5K accounts created.  Go look at the official forums, every single post is a complaint, and that doesn't include all the complaints they already deleted.  Exploiters, macroers, hackers.  When people are already hacking on a PAY TO PLAY game already, you know the game is SH*T.  A non-existent trade system, crappy chat system, crappy UI, crappy animations, crappy movement, crappy combat, crappy sound effects, crappy music, un-refined PvP system, no cheat protection, hardly any website updates, no way to cancel online, ETCETERA, ETCETERA.

    YEAH MAN, WHAT AN AWESOME GAME.

    I've seen waaay more fanboy "troll" posts recently then actual "troll" posts.  I don't know what this thread is to accomplish, real trolls don't apologize.. If you're saying that the "critics" were wrong (usually lumped into the troll community by some of the more rabid fanboys) then I believe you are wrong.. Sure, the game is not vaporware, but those of us in the community who doubted the lofty goals, and were skeptic of some of the more vocal praises of the fanboys, I think we were right, to a point. 

     Aventurine had horrible organization with their release, along with the game turning out to be different then the original vision (check how many features are actually  in that are STILL listed on their FAQ).  A deep skill system, along with dynamic combat mechanics were put aside in favor of the world design, and guild political systems (which isn't bad, per say, if that's what you are into). Crafting turned out to be really boring (not too many people were surprised) along with no real tools to stimulate an ingame economy (no auction houses/player stores, etc).  Player housing was scrapped (again, not a big surprise), along with city building turned into just dumping money/resources to form a pre-designed city. 

    While many will say they knew the plethora of original features would be cut, unless you stalked the forums, and/or official IRC channel, you wouldn't really know that the shiny, creative feature list is pretty much false... Which brings us to one of the worst aspects of Aventurine: communication.  It really does not require much time at all to update a feature list, nor to post quick, informative updates on the website.. An hour a week to post communication with your community would be a huge improvement, although Tasos posted that they will improve their communication.  It's still too early to claim the release a success or not, and Aventurine has some catching up to do in order for this release to eventually become a success.. With that said, I really hope they can do it.. And I hope they can find the time to implement many of those features that would make DF a truly great sandbox, rather then a clan oriented medieval FPS.

    This is what the op ment. You managed to get everything wrong. And for a starter, you havent even tryed Darkfall.

    And what about a non-existing trade system? I did craft and trade for two months during beta without any problem.

    Sounds like you dont even like Darkfall in the first place.....so no matter what Aventurine does to Darkfall, you will ever like it. So that also again shows that the OP is right. The haters/trolls were wrong about everything.

     

     

    PS I might undersdtand that you want a "auktion house" or something. But thats the opposit of player driven economy and carebear.

    The game stinks and so does it's launch. I have 3 friends playing it

     

    It will flop worse than Shadowbane did. They both took way too long to develope and DF is already showing it's age.

    if this were the first week of one of the other games i'd played at retail; then, during downtimes i'd be reading beta testers' reviews, hints, ideas of ways to play/build the characters, etc.

     

    seriously, every single post made in this early stage of the game, just makes me wonder who you're trying to convince... you, or me.

    could we please get correspondent writers and moderators, on the eve forum at mmorpg.com, who are well-versed on eve-online and aren't just passersby pushing buttons? pretty please?

    The pvp is great.

    Generic statement with no inherent value.

     Roaming alone in enemy territory is great.

    Which cannot be done in any other PvP game... even WoW...

     Hiding behind a bush or a rock or in a tree without a radar spoiling your position is great.

    First valid thing you have said so far.

     Jumping down from a tree and onto someone's mount when they get off to store it at the bank is great (I never did that, but it happened to me).  

    This is subjective. Rather sad that 1) You failed to examine the area before dismounting. 2) You did not store your mount fast enough.

    Mounted combat is great.  It does awesome damage... but with the additional risk of losing something worth around 300-400 gold.

    Again very vague on details other then "does more damage"... Also not very inspiring considering you lost 300 - 400 gold one sentence before.

     Sniping someone in the back with a few arrows when they turn and try to heal is awesome.

    *yawn* How is this exactly new? Again can be done in almost every other MMO that has PvP.

     Sticking to someone and hammering them with melee when they try to chug a pot is very satisfying.

    See above.

     Dodging most of your opponents attacks even when their weapon has a wider hit radius then yours is very fun.

    Valid point.

    Backing up when you're in trouble and popping a heal while dodging arrows is a rush.

    Nothing monumental, but again valid point from your perspective.

     Nailing a mount on low hp with mana missle and bringing it down is life completing.

    Are you serious? Life completing? Taking the DF cult to new hights with that one.

    Beating two or three people who are very well equipped while you have crap on is amazing.  

    Again nothing new.

    Looting the two or three well-equipped people after you beat them is as sweet as honey.

    FFA looting is very nice. Valid point.

    Making a living by selling the weapons you loot of people is great.  

    Only if you are exploiting the rogue system or killing enemy races. If you are red, then you are not really selling anything for the most part.

    Killing farmers (mostly afk/macroing) and looting their resources is great.

    Again rogue system exploiting or killing enemy races... Also macroing is a major issue.

     Taking said resources and turning them into potions or arrows or profit is pretty satisfying as well.  

    Meh... so few actual positives in this post I will let this one slide.

    I almost forgot, decapitating someone who is trying to run away from you is plain awesome.

    So you decapitated them while they still had health... you really sticking by that statement?

     

    You did a good job of making it sound like a lot of content when in fact your post said very little. You even shot your credibility in the foot by embellishing certain things to make them sound greater then they really are. One highlight to this post was the life completing comment... How little value does there have to be in someone's life to get a life satisfying moment out of a video game... any video game. sad.

     

     

    Hyperbole--> exaggeration--> heard of it?

    When I snipe someone's mount (which again, is worth about 300-400 gold), and kill it with brilliant prediction and aim with my mana missle (fairly slow moving projectile), it is an awesome feeling.  The few times I managed it, I laughed and had a grin the size of texas on my face for a good 10 minutes afterwards.  Since I didn't feel like typing that sentence, I just decided to overstate it with some easily recognizable hyperbole.  

    Of course, someone didn't recognize it.

    Edit:  Also, yes, I decapitated someone who had health left.  A decapitation in Darkfall is a critical hit that finishes off a players health bar.  Normally, when you finish a players health bar, they get incapacitated.  If you score a crit on the last hit, however, you decapitate them.  Well, at least with a 2h sword.  I don't know about the other weapons.

    I've seen waaay more fanboy "troll" posts recently then actual "troll" posts.  I don't know what this thread is to accomplish, real trolls don't apologize.. If you're saying that the "critics" were wrong (usually lumped into the troll community by some of the more rabid fanboys) then I believe you are wrong.. Sure, the game is not vaporware, but those of us in the community who doubted the lofty goals, and were skeptic of some of the more vocal praises of the fanboys, I think we were right, to a point. 
     Aventurine had horrible organization with their release, along with the game turning out to be different then the original vision (check how many features are actually  in that are STILL listed on their FAQ).  A deep skill system, along with dynamic combat mechanics were put aside in favor of the world design, and guild political systems (which isn't bad, per say, if that's what you are into). Crafting turned out to be really boring (not too many people were surprised) along with no real tools to stimulate an ingame economy (no auction houses/player stores, etc).  Player housing was scrapped (again, not a big surprise), along with city building turned into just dumping money/resources to form a pre-designed city. 
    While many will say they knew the plethora of original features would be cut, unless you stalked the forums, and/or official IRC channel, you wouldn't really know that the shiny, creative feature list is pretty much false... Which brings us to one of the worst aspects of Aventurine: communication.  It really does not require much time at all to update a feature list, nor to post quick, informative updates on the website.. An hour a week to post communication with your community would be a huge improvement, although Tasos posted that they will improve their communication.  It's still too early to claim the release a success or not, and Aventurine has some catching up to do in order for this release to eventually become a success.. With that said, I really hope they can do it.. And I hope they can find the time to implement many of those features that would make DF a truly great sandbox, rather then a clan oriented medieval FPS.

     

    Falls short of expectations

    This category refers particularly to products that may not be inherently flawed or defective, but rather fail to fulfill the high expectations of the consumers who have been subjected to aggressive marketing campaigns and constant hype from either the company itself or the media who reported about it in the period leading to release. Delays on such products have been known to inflate to months and even years, creating often unrealistic expectations of the final version once it eventually reaches store shelves.

    The biggest example of this is the computer game Daikatana, which was announced in 1997 but did not ship until 2000. Many who had waited felt the gameplay was disappointing. Ultima IX was released to savage reviews in 1999, due to numerous bugs, unbalanced gameplay and high system requirements.

    could we please get correspondent writers and moderators, on the eve forum at mmorpg.com, who are well-versed on eve-online and aren't just passersby pushing buttons? pretty please?

    2 darktardians would not stop, our telling them to go away cuz we did NOT care, just made them "poasterify" MOARZ.

    3 wow came out, we played it, never bother poasterificating

    4 as recently as WAR.... it came out and the first few days we PLAYED... didn't post.

    5 all you see is dartardian poasterificating this entire first week about how great the game is... INSTEAD of playing it

    6 go play this wunderfail game, stop poasting.  every poast that is made by someone that COULD be playing, tells me that all the games we've played at retail.. PLAYED at retail, instead of posting at retail... was/is worlds better than the darkfall forum posting game.

     

    1) I am not one of those people.

    2) I am not one of those people

    3) I don't care

    4) I don't care

    5) I have seen almost no posts this last week like that. In fact all I have seen is the opposite.

    6) The game is down for a patch right now. Also I remember alot of posting just like this abotu AOC and WAR.

     

    Stop blaming your character flaws on other people. stop watseing your time on this game if you don't like it. you make yourselves look like spoilt children.

    Do you know what mature people do when others do things to them?? they be the bigger persona and do not stoop to there level. otherwise they become just as bad.

     

    more incessant posting AND character assassination, instead of playing.  i'm sorry that there's always an excuse to be posting instead of playing.  darkfall must be truly cutting edge, since it's so hardcore you can't play it even.

     

    http://www.mmorpg.com/photo/54d34348-6bc3-4bc0-a669-7b8209a2cecb

     

     

     

    here's a picture for you to enjoy, you can play vicariously thru.... trying to find tim!

     

    not character assasination its the truth. You blame the fact that you need to be here to smite the evil fanboys because they did it to you.

     grow up and be the bigger person.

    I have played the game for almost 20 hours this weekend.

    the game is down for 2 hours for a patch.

    they are incredibly fast at fixing things,

     

    did you find tim in the picture?  it's a darkfall picture after all.  are you enjoying your down time in the pay-to-play beta while the server is down again?  seriously, i never spent this much game-playing-time posting on forums during the first month of a new game.

     

    if this were the first week of one of the other games i'd played at retail; then, during downtimes i'd be reading beta testers' reviews, hints, ideas of ways to play/build the characters, etc.

     

    seriously, every single post made in this early stage of the game, just makes me wonder who you're trying to convince... you, or me.

     

    You obviously have not played many of the newer games. AOC... tons of downtime. VG... tons of downtime.

    War had a pretty good launch.

    I was a beta tester. so was alot of my guild. we already had a plan. it has been realised.

    I am not going to spend my time giving away strategies to my enemies. this is a competitive pvp game after all.

    I am not convincing anyone of anything. in fact I have not even told you what I think of the game. you just assumed. I am simply trying to bring a bit of maturity to this forum. trying to show you that you need to be a bigger man than the fanboys were to you. is that so hard for you to understand?

    You guys exagerate to much and need to actually play a game before making comments. You have lost your troll cards until the next game. Nothing you say on the Darkfall forums holds any validity anymore
    I hope MMORPG does a solid in game review so the other people that visit this site and read your bullshit can laugh at yas like I am.
    And to think some of you have over 500 posts. Blah

    I agree they were right about the billing. It is a mess. But the actual game is sooooo fun. I cant wait to get a raft

    So OP, nice try, but your words are empty.

     

    The pvp is great.

    Generic statement with no inherent value.

     Roaming alone in enemy territory is great.

    Which cannot be done in any other PvP game... even WoW...

     Hiding behind a bush or a rock or in a tree without a radar spoiling your position is great.

    First valid thing you have said so far.

     Jumping down from a tree and onto someone's mount when they get off to store it at the bank is great (I never did that, but it happened to me).

    shhh, don't you know?  the best part of darkfall is posting about it, not playing it.

     

    duh.  why else are all the forums flooded with darktardian poasterings, instead of people actually playing the game and enjoying it?

     

    Because we didn't get our preoders in?

    The game looks to me like a pile of crap. A project developped by amateur devs trying to revolutionize the mmo genre, but instead taking a step back.

    The game is not worth its p2p status for me, and is an overall disapointment. However, I am still interested in the concept of the game, and want to keep following it in the hopes that one day it gets close that what it should've been. and Im sure a lot of people will agree with what I've said

    To conclude, get out troll!!

    The rules of Debate are really simple; once you have to stoop to insults instead of facts, logic, or reason to try and win your argument, you've lost.
