For us to at least get a rough RELEASE DATE? As in q3 2007 or something? 6 years is a long time, most mmogs announced these days already have a projected release date.

    I don't think they started the game in ernest until 2003, Unfortunately they made the mistake of announcing their intent to create the game before they had really made a realistic start on it.  If that really is the case, then 3-4 years is a reasonable amount of time, comparable with all major releases who I doubt make the same mistake, and announce their game a little later in the development stage.

    They have an ambitious target of 'releasing a beta by the end of this year'. http://the-combine.com/ArticleViewer.aspx?ArticleNo=327 Don't get your hopes up though,as they haven't finalised this or anything.

    Most likely a beta will be done in 2007. (if not before) And after that,probably a release in 2007 also. But we'll have to see. I think the time is almost upon us. We just gotta be patient.

    Vaporware? That's the sound your post makes when it's printed on my screen. Hot air with no substance. Provide some sort of criticisms with your crappy claims please,next time.

    Well, that does sound encouraging, though I won't get my hopes up just yet! Been spending ages looking for a decent substitute in the meantime but can't find anything that offers anything remotely close to the depth that this is promising. A cross between horizions and lineage 2 would be nice but each on their own don't seem to appeal so much  Any recommendations suitepee?

    They have been saying beta is just around the corner for the last 3 years. So don't get your hopes up. And if it ever is released, it will probably be just like dark & Light, Mourning, Roma Victor, and all the other small company disasters.

    We can always hope for a miracle though.

    Regards crafting,I heard Saga of Ryzom is in-depth. Combat system is,for the very little I saw of that,nice also.

    I hated Lineage 2 so I can't suggest anything more leaning towards that. I'd probably just recommend trying Ryzom.

    Yeah,I admit after hearing and getting into Darkfall a lot of the MMO's I've played seem crap. I've gone right off bothering with EVE,for example,which I was impressed by. I just really wanna play this game.

    Yeah,the miracle being you people stop mentioning DnL and all the other disasters with any small team making a good in-dev game.

    That'll be the day,indeed. (no,I'm not flaming you ghoul31. But please don't join that bandwagon.)

    agreed, i am still hoping this game will some how rise from the ashes and become the awsome pvp game i got exited for when i first read about it years ago.

    but even if it does somehow release, i agree with you it will probably be a disaster due to not having the funding and development team a project like darkfall undoubtedly needs.

    I hope Darkfal ends up being the shining beacon that shows the exact opposite.

    You have to understand that if Darkfall makes it and delivers as promised, no one will give thrones of bullshit a second glance. These two games are very much alike, free pvp, skill based and such... except that Darkfall looks
    10,000 times better than thrones of hoax.


    So, if this clown is Mourning dev, hes worried for a good reason. Darkfall would (will) bury thrones of shit for good.
