Darkfall?

Hey, i looked at their site. It looks promising. The graphics are good, the PVP is open, but restricted with real world limitations (the equivalent of police). This is good.

But what about the combat? I've gotta go to work in 30minutes (BLEGH!) so i didn't have time to look at the whole site. But I couldn't find anything about the actual combat. It sounds, sadly, like it'll be the same crappy point and click crap. I'm not sure tho, they don't come right out and say?

So anyone know how it's going to be? And when the release is supposed to be?

    No idea on the release-- every coouple of months they put a few screenshots up.

    Some people think this game is vaporware because its taking sucha long time. I just remain hopeful. Because it looks like a possibly GREAT game.

    Ah!  Good ol' Darkfall.  Combat is supposed to be a cross between FPS and traditional MMO from what I've gathered.  I've been following this game for a few years now, and, besides Dark & Light, it's the only MMO I'm really looking forward to.  I pray that this game sees the light of day and flourishes in it's true virtual world appeal, where the players create the boundaries, and not some unseen restriction created by the programmers.  I get giddy when I think about it's potential.  I have faith in you Darkfall Online.

    I am very excited about this game. Or i should say...was excited. with each passing month my doubts that this game will ever see the light of day grow more and more.

    I mean, is this game even in Alpha Testing yet>?

    Combat:

    You'll have to aim spells, arrows, etc.  You will have to swing your sword at the right time, no more just auto attacking someone and chasing them around the map.  It will be immersive and take skill to master.  If you want to get a feel for how the combat system might be, go download Mount & Blade, its free up to level 6, and will give you an idea about what kind of combat system they are shooting for.

    You wont have combat levels at all... youll have progression through hundreds of skills.

    In combat, if you die, there will be FULL looting.  Everything on your body and in your backpack will be available to be looted.

    cool sounding. So is swinging going to be hitting some button (stab, swing, slash, etc) or pressing your lmb? Are you going to have the stupid lockon of mos MMOs, or are you going to have to go after your target, get close enough, hit your lmb (maybe in addition to another button to determine the swing type) then try to defend yourself?

    Darkfall is vaporware to the extreme
