war is boring imo, but it's a professional product sold by professionals.
DFO is far from beeing a profesional product.

Sad to say but I think PVPers only have old games to play : Eve, DAOC .

 

 

I've been a PC gamer long enough to realise that 'professional' doesn't equate to FUN. Aventurine can be classed as indie developers. I'm personally sick of polished, pretty MMO's that force you down a certain pathway. I've been in DF beta since last year and have had more fun than I've had in any game since UO. Because of this, I'll be playing DF at release, and I wish Aventurine all the best.

Did you rush from DF forum to over here to tell us this? You act if DF is your last hope.Are you one those who type its the Best Game I've Ever Played?So you are sick of "Polished" games are you? I do hope DF Is very "UnPolished" for you and the path you take will be a "waste of time" to get there.

lol you're pathetic everyone have different taste in games.

As for darkfall it's my kind of game no crappy gamepaly like WAR or WOW WAR and WOW have same gameplay as any f2p mmo out there. Darkfall have fps gameplay which makes it special from other games it's no auto click crap like WAR.

Action is what we all want in a game and that's what darkfall have. WAR is dead on action rofl you don't laugh or anything. Fps games always makes you wanna laugh at funny deaths or something else that is funny in mmorpgs you never laugh unless somebody does a joke rofl it's really dead on mmorpgs.

Darkfall open pvp is what makes the game more special optional pvp is just bullshit darkfall is about freedom and reality mostly if you take away fantasy part it really is reality based. Plus losing your stuff isn't so bad since monsters gives you more than you need. Ppl complain on the looting system because they dunno that monsters gives so damn much to fill up to much of your inventory. Kill a monster bam you got everything you need that you lost. Ofcourse if you upgraded armour to bad but just start over run away from fights if they try to kill you enough said.

It don't take 3 sec to kill you if 8 ppl attack you and your same lvl it takes about 20 sec maybe and if you run maybe 3min unless their good aimers with bow and magic.

Stop talking crap about the game when you havn't played it and that's all i have to say cause it's all true and that's what makes the game good :) that's why it have so many fans

You haven't played WAR, me thinks. I'm just gonna color something in your post red and point out how you dig your own hole there.

Comparing a RvR game to a FFA PvP game is like comparing apples and oranges...generally two different customers.

You can play FFA PVP on these games :

- PVE game (YEAH PVE): VANGUARD. You can play on Sartok, it's a FFA PVP server. It's not a pvp game

-RVR game: DAOC: DAOC has/had FFA server called Camlann. It's a RVR game, the best RvR game in the market.

 You can play FFA on PVE and RvR games.

FFA means NOTHING. It only means you can kill all players, no more no less.  Most of time, FFA servers DIES quickly.   FFA mode is not enough to keep real players online. 

FFA means Free for All. You can play in FFA mode in a PVE (yeah lol) a Pve game. 

If you like FFA, you'd better play Vangyard because this game has great features: Diplomacy, and craft. In Sartok, you can play FFA if you like it. You don't have FL but you'll have corpse run. Corpse run + Dungeon + FFA in Vanguard is really HARDCORE.

 If you're looking for something INTERESTING, made by a small cy, wait for Mount and blade/addon/Multiplayer. Small cy but PROFESSIONAL product.

Darkfall will not affect Warhammer because to be frant...unless you keep up with it here or on the main site itself, how are you even gonna know about it? 

Here in the US, you won't see the box on the shelf, the game wil not be reviewed by any magazine so how are people gonna know about it?

Word of mouth? who are the "hard core" pvp's gonna tell? other online friends? convience them to come over and look at the game and pay $50 and $18 per month? No way.

TIME WARP 6 MONTHS FROM NOW

Tasos has built up some $$$ from subs, maybe even decided on a big name publisher, things are looking good, patches fix bugs, some pve added.

He puts it in retail boxes in EU, make more $$ and put boxes on shelves in US

THEN you got people trying the game and canceling subs from other games, even warhammer.

NOW, how I got all this information is by looking into a crystal ball I found, and reading Tasos' palm

Ummmm WotLK already owned this game hardcore.

Of course DF wont be a issue theres nothing left of WAR to have an issue with.

Yeah people who doesnt agree with me are morons. Typical response from a cool/lewt dude. They say they are in beta and say its full of bugs, you say you are in beta and say it isnt. Considering they didnt call people who dont agree with them for morons I think I will listen to them

The game is ridicoulously more PvP oriented than WAR... it's not a safe environment and there's penalties when you give someone else a kill.... i.e. you lose all your belongings (except for the things in your bank).... which is basicaly the purest form of PvP.... reality works like this...

Purest forms of PvP? No, its the purest forms of griefing/ganking. PvP means player versus player, it in no way says that the loser should lose everything. It is like saying a boxing match to the death is the purest form of boxing. No it isnt, it is the most savage form of boxing.

Ganking isn't a spell as you call it (lol)... it's a maneuver you perform when you incapasitate someone... you can choose to leave them be, revive them or gank them and take their stuff.
Doesn't that sound better than just letting them respawn ?... how is that pure PvP?... where is my satisfaction?... where is the actual penalty so I care if I die?...

The satisfaction is in competing against players and not AI, not a sadistic satisfaction knowing that the people you die will lose everything they got.

WHAT the hell is the point in killing people if they respawn exactly the same as before?...

Oh I dunno, maybe because you have other objectives for killing people than causing them grief?

and I'm not even going to go into the whole skill discussion.
Watch some proper Darkfall PvP videos and compare them to WoW/WAR/ and all other EQ clones...

Oh and I just realized you like Scenarios.... ... but I guess that's fine if you like other people to tell you how to play a game instead of having complete freedom.

Let me finish that sentance for you: instead of having complete freedom to grief people.

Again this has nothing to do with PvP but rather that you want to have the freedom to grief people. That is a whole different thing entirely. Again calling people who doesnt enjoy the same things as you for a Nut Job. This is again typicaly griefer/ganker mentality and which you will find plenty of in Darkfall.

The thing is you really dont want PvP, you want to degreade and grief people because that somehow makes you feel better. That is what Darkfall is about, allowing to put the maximum grief on other people you defeat.

Darkfall will get players from WAR... but don't worry... the carebears will still remain in your beloved scenarios... enjoy the stories people put you in... and let me enjoy making my own.

 Carebear was a term used for people who like PvE, not for people who like PvP without the grief element. In WAR, on O-RvR servers, you can attack and kill someone pretty much everywhere (beside in cities/warcamps and sometimes even in cities) the difference is that you cant grief people since they wont lose much when dying.

So again, just because you like griefing does not make more of a PvPer than me. I have played MMORPGs since the launch of UO and I have always picked PvP centered MMORPGs where Asheron Call on Darktide was my favourite.

What make that game great, and Darkfall rubbish, is that on Darktide server there was some balance. On death you only dropped a set of items, not all, and some quest items were undroppable and combine that with the radar that the game had, which allowed you to spot if someone was about to gank you, that created a balanced game where PvP was unrestricted yet it was manageable since you didnt lose everything.

WARs death penalties are way too light and Darkfalls way too heavy but since I play games to enjoy myself and I dont enjoy myself when griefing people, or get griefed by other people, then I will pick WAR over Darkfall anytime.

Btw I can bet that you PvP alot more in WAR than in Darkfall since in WAR you can advance your character solely through PvP (again scenarios that you hate so much). In Darkfall you repeteadly use a skill to level it which probably means most people will do AFK macroing. Thats pure PvP for you!

 

His post pretty much sums up why only gankers will like the game. Underlined the interesting parts.

Thank you.

Ouch, lol... so sad but true 

And im not even a WoW fan and I could see that easily as a third party watching the fight.

WAR v WoW was like Watching a MMA match

WoW being Fedor and WAR being a under nurished midget.

Edit: If you don't know who fedor is hes basically the most dangerous man on the planet where MMA is concerned 27-1 and his only loss was to stoppage due to a bad cut from a crappy misplaced elbow, fador wasn't even hurt.

I heard of Fedor but Fador is new to me

(Warhammer) Producer's notes

Well here it is; The Public Test Patch Notes for Game Update 1.2. Many hours of blood, sweat and tears went into these notes, and it shows. From the sheer size (over 55 pages!) to the numerous improvements being implemented, it's all been a labor of love (or was that WAAAGH!). In the notes below you'll see over 500 bug fixes, 10 plus pages of career balancing, numerous RvR improvements, UI improvements, continued building on our success with improving performance and server stability and a considerable review of our dungeon loot itemization. While these notes are still technically a "work in progress" they represent the majority of the changes that will be implemented with Game Update 1.2. Please keep in mind, these notes are for the public test server and can change periodically throughout the Public Testing Process.
As always, thank you to our Players for their continued support.

Just curious OP...

WHICH game are you talking about again?

This particular game has been out since September and 9 days ago, they announce they had 500 bugs after working on it non-stop for four months and after an extensive beta trial.

Makes you shudder to think how many were in the game with one of the "smoothest launches ever". (Or how many are still left crawling around in there)

Hehe Yes, I know there are FFA PvP servers on many PvE games, but that doesnt mean its a FFA PvP game though. PvE games are built for PvE and their PvP suffer for it.

I played Vanguard for a year; as a PvE game its very good, as a PvP game (on Sartok) its plain awful. I wouldnt recommend Sartok to anyone who likes PvP. 

 If you're looking for something INTERESTING, made by a small cy, wait for Mount and blade/addon/Multiplayer. Small cy but PROFESSIONAL product.

"Yeah people who doesnt agree with me are morons."
Hahaha. Thanks for making me laugh Yamota ;)

Epic quote.

well WAR is more of an arcade shooter than a mmorpg.

darkfall is the real stuff. i played beta for more than a month and i must say its impressing, never seen a game like this.

WAR and AoC are instable bugfests with no game content, compared to darkfall.

i wouldnt say darkfall is the perfect game, but alot better than any other game out there for sure.

Every time I read one of these barely understandable rabid fan messages I get the feeling that somewhere a goverment research lab is missing its crack addicted monkey.

As far as MY sub goes it is an issue, because my Darkfall preorder is in and I'm downloading the client as I type. Not resubbing to WAR. WaR was fun and it brought alot of new things to the mmo table its not enough for me. In WAR the people on your own side have no consequence and I hate this. I like people having to be held accountable for what they say. If someone says something stupid in Darkfall fight them! Also same goes for you , you must weigh your situations. is it a good time to say exactly whats on your mind ? or will you be instantly ganked.? Must also chose your allies and enemies wisely. In WAR you know exactly who your enemy is.

As this man is known to try out all new MMORPG's (and hates Wow because of its monopoly and "damage" to the overall industry), it shows ...

... there are still some of Warhammer players testing and looking out for newer and challenging PvP games.

I wouldn't know their percentage, but % wise I think these people indeed will keep on searching for a better game (to them).

But in the end ... I hardly see Darkfall within the top 50 of most played PC games, so the "damage is minimal". To War it would surprise me if they lost more than 5%. They could even regain subs, if DF is indeed a complete dud (have to wait for that).

In the first place War must now try to stop their normal exit rate shown (again) by http://www.xfire.com/games/who/Warhammer_Online_Age_of_Reckoning/  these last few weeks.

So my bet: DF will not have any influence on any game whatsoever. As a wow player and defender I can say most comrades don't know if DF is a bike or a sports outfit.

I wonder how many of these 'hardcore' folks are having buyer's remorse today. 

I'm no fan of WAR, but I was at least able to play the game at release.
