btw Dr wtfpwn sounds great to me, gonna use it in TF2 from now on. didn't think i'd be able to come up with a better/funnier name than r0x0r mc0wnage, but i think that might have done it, thanks! |

you'd have to have had a kid to understand. |

*charlie the unicorn voice* Yayyyyyyyy Javac YAYYYYYYYYYYYY Seriously now, While i'm interested to know wich basic facts i got wrong, besides the part about NPC towers and universal banks wich i don't have any issues *OWN*ing up to if i'm wrong....
Wouldn't you rather talk about your PHD mate? Let's start seeing some credentials, i'm sure alot of people would want to since you seem to fail high school level mathematics.... I never claimed to be a world renowned industry proffesional like you did, wich is why this is all the much sweeter. |

Geez how can you be so ignorant about a game you profess to know something about. You knowledge about this game is kind of like your doctorate...Vaporware. |

mmorpg.com forums are just getting sad. Page after page of posts on the interview and only like 3 people have commented on the article itself; the rest has been a bunch of useless bickering back and forth about nonsence, It's an FPS, one world, sandbox MMO geared toward a small audience. People are hyping this game way beyond what the devs had hoped for, at least that's the impression I'm getting as they have to resort to staged releases in order to cope with the demand. Not to mention the games being developed by an indy group. The expectations from believers and non believers alike is just absurd. The game will stand on it's own merits when it's released. Anyone who thinks they know what will happen after release is talking out of thier backsides. You know nothing. It's a game for godsakes; one that hasn't even been released yet. Get over it already. The arguing isn't funny, it's sad. |

You know the legend in your own mind only is exceeded by your obvious ignorance when you post. If you are an actual PhD then I am the f'n president of Greece and Tacos is under my desk right now giving me all kinds of new information about his latest scam. You don't apparently even know what the Sullon Zek server was and what game it was in. I never mentioned WoW and I know many WoW carebears BTW that can easily whip most of the "hardcore" PvP players in a twitch MMOFPS which is really all Dark and Fail is going to be. Where do you think most of the hardcore UO freaks went? Hint, probably Azeroth or Norrath, it sure the F wasn't Dark and Fail. |

Originally posted by Ozmodan i provided you a LINK even to a post by Tasos that is *12MONTHS OLD* where he says that they replaced roaming guards with guard towers.
if you're talking only about adding more guard towers to the game, so what? are you going to make a fuss cause they added a couple more NPC vendors so people could sell stuff too?
ridiculous troll is ridiculous. |

Sullon Zek == everquest "PVP" server. yes i can use google unlike most here.
i'm still laughing cause you called it hardcore.
ps: all the actual hardcore PVPers stayed in UO.
hardly surprising a bunch of ex-everquest carebears are complaining about Darkfall, lol. |

talking about my credentials is a bit pointless with the average intellectual and maturity level around here being just a touch above burger flipper level.
but how old are you again? let me guess - 16?

Suuuuuuure.... Keep digging your own grave. but hey if you actually finished high school you'd realise that maths stops being about actual numbers somewhere around year 11-12. hence why you take calculators into exams. So what led you to believe i havn't finished high school? That's pretty bold coming from someone who can't calculate percentages. Maybe if YOU finished high school you'd know that calculating percentages involves an "x", wich by your own definition could be seen as "not actual numbers" and super-duper complicated. talking about my credentials is a bit pointless with the average intellectual and maturity level around here being just a touch above burger flipper level. Ironically, alot of people have flipped burgers in order to pay for their NON-fantasy studies but i see where you're going at. If your comments can't hold their own weight, either show us some kind of proof of your experience or have the smarts to learn to not rely on lies to attempt to make your points seem valid. It's crappy, it's low and you're now scrounging the "bottom" of the excuse jar... Let alone the self-dignity "jar"... but how old are you again? let me guess - 16? How cute. Heck let's say you're right, congratulations on uncovering my secret, how did you know Dr. Sherlock? Was it my spelling? Was it my wrong use of mathematics? Or was it the lack of Highly Scientific internet words for high-brow international conventions such as, "wtf", "pwn", "hardcore", "carebear" or "r0x0r"?
And finally, the definition of the day is.................................... *drumroll* ........................... Ad hominem tadah!

*eats popcorn* What was it again that they say about arguing on the internet? Something with 'participating in the Paralympics' and 'even if you win you are still a ... something' ... *ponders*

 Does it ?  Then i think need to go back to school . . .  Because as far i know/learned,  % = percentage = "per hundred" Just means a number divided by 100. There is also "per mil", "per mille", "per thousand". Which is a number divided by 1000. And so go on . . . (per million, billion, trillion . . .) i see no "x", or better said, variable in there . . .

that's a good one to give him... I was asking him earlier which falacy he was using by attacking the person instead of the topic. - CaesarsGhost Lead Gameplay and Gameworld Designer for a yet unnamed MMO Title. |

Darkfall is sure an interesting case. A very large amount of passionate hype over a niche-marketed game. Will that be a recipe for success or diaster (not taking into consideration of other factors)? Stay tuned as the drama unfolds.
As for this thread... And that is why... Conservatives' pessimism is conducive to their happiness in three ways. First, they are rarely surprised -- they are right more often than not about the course of events. Second, when they are wrong they are happy to be so. Third, because pessimistic conservatives put not their faith in princes -- government -- they accept that happiness is a function of fending for oneself. They believe that happiness is an activity -- it is inseparable from the pursuit of happiness. |

Darkfall will find its market and everyone else will find another game. The heated words will disappear. It's not a big deal. The interview was pretty typical for a mmorpg interview. Not much hard information. I still look forward to the game but the developers could've kept some friends if they did what so many developers do: kept a developer's journal with regular entries. The level of smug, self-congratulatory bullshit in this thread is incredible. How can you people indulge your own vanity and arrogance so much without a hint of embarrassment. This thread is mostly a debate about topic that no one has the true, up to date information for. And the debate consists of both sides of the argument trying to get the other party to admit they don't know the true, up to date information. None of you do, put it to bed. |

MMORPG.com: Can you give us any more details on pre-order plans?
A mmorpg without players is a dead mmorpg. This is a nonsense. D- 7 , NDA not lifted... not even a webpage for payment. DFO : 100 % fanboys' game. |

Heheh, I can just see it now...
MMORPG.com: So now it's April 2010 and many of our readers are still wondering whether Darkfall even exists. Care to comment? Tasos Flambouras: Of course it exists! We kept to our promised February 25th 2009 release date as planned, the launch ran seamlessly and our current playerbase is having an amazing time in Agon. Actually, of those players recently polled 100% said unequivocally that Darkfall was the best MMORPG game they'd ever played ever. MMORPG.com: And can you tell us roughly how many players are actually in the game at this time? Tasos Flambouras: No, since we are a publicly listed company we are unable to divulge that information, just like all the other major AAA MMO titles. But it's lots and lots. MMORPG.com: What about the rumours that in fact Darkfall only had a limited "Friends and Family" release, and that there are actually just a few hundred players currently? Tasos Flambouras: Er... that's lies, all lies. It's true that because of limited server resources we were forced to make a 'staggered' release, but we are working towards inviting more players into our Full Public Release all the time. Keep checking your Inboxes! MMORPG.com: Any chance of your lifting the NDA soon? Since the game's been 'released' for over a year now... Tasos Flambouras: Not yet but soon, very soon. Very, very soon. MMORPG.com: Any comment about all the Release Leak footage on Youtube? The world looks pretty empty in most of that footage, and the performance still looks very clunky for a supposed AAA title... Tasos Flambouras: Never trust Release Leakers, they're the scum of the earth! And anyway that footage is from a much earlier Release Build than the one we're currently running. And the world isn't empty, it's just really really big. And a sandbox. You make your own fun. That's what sandbox is. Mobs and in-game content are for carebears! |

Originally posted by Greek_Matt rumours are usually started by clueless people to substitute for real facts, which people with a clue are able to find using a few simple searches.
eg: like how there are leaks showing 1600 *unique* posters in the welcome to beta thread on the beta forums, which mean there are *at least* 1600 people in beta. probably 1.5-2 times this many, possibly many more... depends on the percentage of people that are actually reading the forums and posting in the welcome thread. |

On a side note, can someone give me a good reason to play this game if you die, you then start from scratch? What are my incentives to have fun? Is that fun? |

apparently humour is relative... like for instance i think organised religion is the greatest scam in history and anyone believing in it is a joke, but not everyone feels this way... does that mean they have no sense of humour too?

feel free to go ahead and explain why it's funny, bearing in mind that Darkfall's official release date has been delayed fewer times and for a shorter period than WOW's was.
It's not funny because it doesn't correlate with what's actually happened; it's just more clueless trolling. |
