Very cool vid, ty for posting.
That was cool as fuck!
LOLing @ everyone jumping overboard as it's sinking
at first it was cool ... but than I realised that again it is just simple nuking without positioning or anything
I wish I could play this game. I bought it, I've played a bit but I think I'm simply just not hardcore enough to handle it. I don't mind getting killed but people take their kills to a whole new level at times, with the banter in chat and whatnot.
I don't expect it to be an overly friendly game, but I think I'm just too carebear for it. :P At least I am willing to admit it. :P
Are you kidding? No positioning? You do realize the guns of the boat are on the side right? Also if you are to close you have to worry about swimmers boarding the boat and killing you.
waaah waah its the first of many fights and people are just getting a feel for it. Strategy will come with practice
I just resubscribed thats how good they were lol.
And this is what i have been waiting for : )
To bad no other MMO have could ever give me that feature before. SWG had a little, but nothing like this.
Darn, that looked fun, I need a bigger clan.
Haha, someone complains about tactics. I was a raidhealer in WOW for 3 years, and I usually only used two buttons. The addons took care of the thinking in that game. Still I think there is to few people in the enemy ships. I hardly saw any returning fire from those ships.
Between the initiative shown by the devs with the Kraken and this.... I bought a 6 month sub.

Welcome to Darkfall Hatter.
If you need any help send a pm.
Thanks.
I'm really hoping that I have the right idea about the game and how the devs are trying to run it. Starting out with PVP to make money and provide the players with some fun, while they expand it into an epic masterpiece... like the 8yrs of development was supposed to. lol. Still not sure why it took so long, but they seemed to have put that behind them and the game seems to have gone through quite a few changes since it was launched.
But, if that's what they are trying to do. I can live with that. It's just when it was launched, it seemed to be nothing more than a medival FPS that took more time to play.

NVW i readed too fast. 1st of all, you can see them trying to postition at the side of each others so they can succefully hit. They can spam magic or bow shot from anywere, but 0 canon are placed at the front or back of the boat. Only at the side and only canon bullet do enough damage to destroy a boat. Also, if a boat is near enough, some can just jump in the water to get in your boat. There is million os possibilities.

OP has been updated.
You realise this is one of the first naval battles seen in Darkfall? I'm guessing that you don't actually play the game?

Of course
Its a defining feature of the nay-sayers

Agreeing with Ruyn here. There are many tactical possibilities in the current naval warfare.

I know how you feel, that's why I hunted for months to find the right clan of people who weren't immature
Darkfall Travelogues!
whats not to like!? It was never going to be as detailed as PotBS fights but it does the rest of the game 100x better! im sure in time the ships will be broken down into more detailed sections so you sink a ship by concentrating on a section, hopefully cannon shot type (grape, balls, etc) with better effectiveness against players/sails/masts/hulls..
im sure that will happen eventually
for the people complaining about tactics: each boat type has a different cannon battery locations, different sizes (obv), different places to board the boat from, better/worse masts that you can or cant climb...
everything is mindless until it is refined.
watch this space, when people start learning the strengths and weakenesses of them all, and begin manourvering to launch a boarding assault, will you say sorry? I doubt it.
How, the hell did I miss this one ...

Yeah they sure laid down the hurt.
A darkfall moderator just posted some nice links to some great pvp and ship battles.

You already have some in this thread though.

Well if ever there was a time to say OWNED! this is it. Nice to see more than just MM spam too
which would explain how their ship took on 4 others and did not sink...that or they have some magic heal spell for the ship between fights.
MMO wish list:
-Changeable worlds
-Solid non level based game
-Sharks with lasers attached to their heads

Just lots of repair tools.
