The stuff looks prety highly deatailed. I thought the style was prety cool with the big dragon head and angular lines. But It has me wondering how many dragons you need to camp for the components. And wont it be like wearing a sign on your back, "good loot plz pk me"
I doubt you'll want to be leaving base alone, at night, heading out towards an enemy rich area with those babies on though .
The armour does look a lot better than the other types, but you can still see the lowish resolution of the texture map. This is something that hasn't bothered me at all, but I'm sure the people who were complaining about the Darkfall graphics will use that as a point in their argument.
Those shots look pretty sweet, but I recall some really nice looking armor sets from EQ2 that didn't make launch because they were deemed too lag inducing.
But if that level of detail makes it into the actual game, yeah, nice eye candy.
I am impressed how much detail and how good they are managing their armours to look. I must be honest, I think they exagerate the spikes and extra accessories sticking out of the armour a little too much at times, but I loved the idea of the dragon's head. Its probably the best armour I've seen till now....very impressive.
Though the graphics aren't top notch, I think for a real time game with twitch combat, keeping the graphics low is what I would call heading in the right direction. They got the perfect graphics to keep the gameworld immersive and yet they probably won't effect FPS rates. I always choose performance over graphics any day on any game!
that's some sweet looking armor. In some newer screenshots it looks like it has a blueish hue compared to the ones linked on this thread. Maybe it's reflecting the environment, or maybe it's different types of the same armor. Could it be armor dye?
I know having "cool" armor means a lot, but that's no reason to base your judgement on a game for on yeah runon sentence that doesn't make sence on a game that just has two screenshots of this relaly big warriopr looking yeah cool armor means a lot, but nope.
*twitches in amazement* must get... in beta.... I have not seen this level of detail in armour since Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, not only that the game seems to be using that kind of combat.... *worships* I will definitely give this at try when it comes out the idea of player owned cities and proper environments is cool too.
Quoting people doesn't make you clever, in fact, it makes you all the more stupid for not bothering to read the quotes you post in the first place.
Out of every 100 men, 10 should not be there, 80 are nothing but targets, 9 are the real fighters. Ah, but one, ONE of them is a warrior, and he will bring the others home. -Heraclitus 500BC
anyone who moans about the graphics need to rethink what will actually be happening in darkfall.
First: your going to have city sieges and skirmishes with well over 100v100 numbers.
Second: ITS FPS ON A MASSIVE SCALE this isnt instanced so stfu and take what you can get. if you dont like it go play wow or warhammer
LOL L2's new advertisement is wonderful..... Take a step back in time and relive the original Lineage II experience as it was in the beginning. Create a classic hero from the original 5 races and 31 class options and jump into the nostalgic hardcore level grind where the rewards can outweigh the risks. It's your chance to experience the game the way it was when "hardcore" meant something!
The screens look nice, and ive been waiting on this title for quite sometime now. But until i see at least a close beta announced i have no reason to be hyped about this game. If it releases and does things well it could be a revolution for MMOs, but only time will tell.

that screenshot looks pretty good, if only the game would ever get released.

Remember man that passes by,
as you are now so once was I.
And as I am so must you be,
prepare yourself to follow me.
Awesome dragon armor. Hope the game looks this good when in motion.

Have to put something up!
