Are you confident enough about Darkfall to preorder the game, when the time comes? Assume there actually is a beta and that you have not participated in it.
Discuss. |

Nice baits: both the thread's tittle and the question... why don't you make another one, something like: Darkfall Begins! How would you feel if DF team would announce starting date this September? Bleh |

I hate the word Discuss. It's so commanding, how about you discuss it? |

Fear not fanbois, we are not trolls, let's take off your tin foil hat and learn what VAPORWARE is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaporware "Vaporware is a term used to describe a software or hardware product that is announced by a developer well in advance of release, but which then fails to emerge after having well exceeded the period of development time that was initially claimed or would normally be expected for the development cycle of a similar product." |

The lead Darkfall dev has already stated in a dev journal (2nd page, 3rd paragraph) that Darkfall will have no preorders of any kind so that kinda renders this whole thread pointless. He stated that they are doing this because he feels that everyone should be able to try the game before anyone has to pony up one red cent for it.

Originally posted by Kien I will generally pre-order any game i like the look of , why because I can. This game falls into that category money is not an issue. And the point of the post ? #### What a lame thread it would be nice Kien if you could contribute a little more this thread adds zero value, it has been stated by Tasos that they will not be going down the pre-order route.

They've never mentioned a release date before. Mind you, it's really refreshing to see a company that is not begging/bribing it's followers (with special mounts) to pre-order a product that no-one has tried yet (in it's finished form). Every one of us has bought games that have turned out to be a waste of money. That you get to try Darkfall before you buy gives Aventurine brownie points. If they started offering special mounts with pre-orders I would be really worried about the quality of the gameplay. ![]() |

Originally posted by Friction2u Maybe not release date, but I know for a fact they've mentioned beta on many occasions and we all know how each and every one of those beta events turned out. Like I said, I'll believe it when I see it.

Originally posted by Shannia Since 2005 they've only mentioned a beta date just once ... and that was just an internal, unofficial, hoped-for date for beta (summer 2007). ![]() |

Originally posted by Friction2u You sir, are full of crap. They have been dangling beta is coming "soon" in many of their dev journals and forum posts for years. Biggest disappointment of all was their "Guild Beta" sign up event that proved to be just more hype for this game that turned out to be nothing.
