There's a video coming out, most probably next week, or shortly after. We’re talking about a long 100% in-game pure gameplay trailer with no scripting, no simulation, no post-processing.


 

Yay!! After only 3 months, we've managed to get from "a few weeks" to "most probably next week, or shortly after" (i.e. "maybe next week, maybe not").

Good to see they've admitted the other videos were not pure in-game video, and had scripting, simulation, and/or post-processing.

Otherwise, a completely empty update, except "we're upgrading our webservers".

Not really IMO. It also said that some things are delayed but it won't affect their 2008-release *happy* and that more people are joining the Aventurine team.

Nice!

Then we will see what happens in ten days or something? Hopefully it will be good news for us that want to play Darkfall. And for everyone else, they can go back to "insert game here" and finally give it a rest here.

Just words... But good for them expanding, nothing to us the community tho. It better be a good video next week or the week after that.

Tasos never said that. Stop making stuff up.

From the link -


Hello,

I thought to quickly check in before too much more time passes. As we step up publishing activities, the updates should increase in frequency and quality, which should make up for the ones we’ve been missing the last months. We take for granted sometimes that the Darkfall community is savvy enough to understand the limitations of independent game development and make allowances, however we’re also keeping track of what we need to give you in order for you to know exactly what you’re getting into with Darkfall.

On progress, there are no major problems to report, some minor delays maybe here and there which don’t affect our timeline. Most of us had a short break, the last for a long time. Everyone is back and we officially entered into our crunch period on Monday. We’ve had several new people join the company the past month, and more on the way.

There's a video coming out, most probably next week, or shortly after. We’re talking about a long 100% in-game pure gameplay trailer with no scripting, no simulation, no post-processing. It’s us play-testing while fraps is running on free cameras and playercams and all the footage was collected and edited. The scenarios for it had to be run as part of our testing and development schedule as they came up. Nothing is scripted. We wanted to give you something that can put you in the true spirit of the game and this requires us to be actually playing the game like you would be, and not just taking you on a sightseeing tour or have a company make a marketing cinematic trailer for us.

If you're experiencing problems with the website and the forums it's because these days we're upgrading our webservers and this should be going on most of next week as well. Thank you for your patience.

Our next update would be the video, so until then, thanks for reading

Saying they were delays that aren't delaying anything, is the same as saying nothing. I did miss the part about more people joining, but again, empty information... what do I care if they hire a new janitor or one or two new gofers? IMHO, just fluff.

Tasos never said that. Stop making stuff up.

The implication is "This video is not scripted, etc." He runs on for several sentences testifing how "real" this video will be, and never once even implies the others weren't. Of course he didn't actually say "the others were fake, but this one won't be." They're not the brightest people in the world, but they're not that stupid.
