Uh, what the hell are you crackheads going on about? There will be a digital distribution for this game, that is sort of the entire point of allowing the NA players access to the EU servers. There isn't a pre-order purchace for the game because they feel such business models are unethical, and they've consistently stated their opposition to expecting customers to pay for a product that isn't even finished or available yet. They also have said they will allow an extensive free trial for everyone to use (no stupid buddy pass system) upon release, so nobody is expected to 'take a chance' with this game, and will have the opprotunity to know precisely what they are spending their money on. What would you vapor trolls say if I told you I know with 100% certaintly that there are people currently playing beta as we type? For their sake and out of respect for Aventurine I'm not going to say anything more about that, but I'll enjoy coming back here to tease you idiots who had nothing better to do than pretend the whole game was some elaborate prank after it releases.

DnL released too and promised great and wonderful things also, I'll hold judgement on DF until it releases.
I want Darkfall to take away the horrible WoW taste MMORPGs got, but I also want to have Salma Hayek as my sexual friend.

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 term implies unwarranted optimism, an as yet unannounced abandonment of a project, or sometimes even deception; that is, it may imply that the announcer knows that product development is in too early a stage to support responsible statements about its completion date, feature set, or even feasibility. However, most vaporware would not be considered a hoax since the makers have a genuine intention to create their product, even if it ultimately never materializes. Products with unspecified release dates or long development times that outwardly demonstrate regular, verifiable progress in production are not normally labelled vaporware. www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/Vaporware Main Entry: : a computer-related product that has been widely advertised but has not and may never become available There are a lot of things that make DF vaporware to people... -Almerel

The MMO genre as a whole is a running joke considering a 5+ year old game is so dominant. |

Nothing will get released on the 22nd. If something ever get released anyway, it would be Dark and Light 10x worse. |

If honest people say it's being played then ill take thier word for it. With my beleifs everyone starts out with respect..some gain more some lose it. i am no god and dont put myself on a pedestal, so no one ever has to earn respect to me. |

I know one thing, the white border was launched at the main web site. Velika: City of Wheels: Among the mortal races, the humans were the only one that never built cities or great empires; a curse laid upon them by their creator, Gidd, forced them to wander as nomads for twenty centuries... |

Originally posted by SignusM They likely aren't doing pre orders, as pre orders are just a big market scam you've been buying into for years.
Also, plenty of people have played the game... in fact a great number of people.
First my apologies in advance if I'm necro'ing this thread. it is only alittle over a month old but I think it well shows The Fans reaction to the Jan 22nd DF launch date anouncement. If you take the time to read through the whole thing you see the "In your face trolls DF's coming out on the 22nd!"" No Pre-orders", etc etc etc hype that fans bought into, and now just alittle over 1 month later were proven incorrecrt. You'll notice many so call trolls in this thread, warned the game wasn't released yet. Had anyone stated then that DF would not even have a open beta going, and would be taking pre-orders come the 22nd. These same fans IMHO would have gone balistic. While I hope i don't get banned for this. (and at the very least expect to be flamed) I do think its a interesting read considering the facts we currently have and sheds some light perhaps on the fans willingness to accept the Devs word at face value.
