<@Brannoc> about 3 hours a night T

 

So thanks Ricki Sickenger (Network developer)

:.. hehe.. He really lives up to the name. .. see.. that is why I like these devs. They are fucking amazing.

And thanks Brannoc..

 

I know exactly they are talking about. I have worked in small Bulgarian Game developement company named Haemimont and it was exactly the same. Thats why I have pissed and get a calm job with better salary.

Before years half of the peoples from "Haemimont Games" started another company named "BlackseaStudios" with a new hopes, but its become the same: working like crazy, implementing great ideas and release polished products, but no any big success because of crap publish and marketing. Now BlackseaStudos was bought by Crytek and they have new hopes.

Hope that will see some of my friend there more often now :)

I know what mean to be Game developer in small company, and that devs there have no own life because that, even they can get much more profitable, and 10 times more easy work. Thats why I support DFO compleatly, and get really angry when some mister "Britney Spears" start crying (trolling) about DFO...

PS: Even all the problems I'm so glad that Aventurine get the publish in their own hands and I'm shure they will solve all of them with the time.


 

 

Education solves 90% of those problems..  Take 6 years of programming, networking and animation classes..!

Then you are ready to be a secretary for a lead developer...!

What's the IRC channel where Brannoc shows up? I never see anyone on that Gamesurge one (or they're all AFK/silent.)

Mr. Tasos, bring me a dream (bung, bung, bung, bung)
Combat the greatest that I've ever seen (bung, bung, bung, bung)
Give me a world where I can be a rover (bung, bung, bung, bung)
Then ill spam mana missile over and over.
Tasos, I'm so alone
Don't have a city to call my own
Your big empty world has no seams
Mr. Tasos, bring me my dreams.

Mr. Tasos (greek voice: “Yesss?) bring us a dream
Give us a game with a polished gleam
You said the graphics were complex and artsy
But instead theyre gay like Liberace
Mr Tasos, something to hold
Sort our preorders, before we're too old
So please turn on your PR sheen
Mr Tasos, bring us, please, please, please
Mr Tasos, bring us our dream.

Ztyx.. I remember you from Dark and Light. So you're a professional paid shill, eh? I really don't think they're getting their money's worth if you want me to be brutally honest.

I think Tasos is overworking himself a lot. .. hmm.. It just sucks a lot that it is not paying off for me at this time. :(

Well.. At least. Thank you Tasos. Thank you very much. And the other devs. Thank you.

We just need the heavens to align now. And a little bit of ladyluck wouldn't be so bad.

Tasos is not actually a developer... so what exactly is he doing for 16 hours?

He barely posts any updates, has kept the forums down, had not seen fit to get a current site up... I mean he is part owner, but what exactly is he doing with this frantic time of his?

It amazes me how much these guys throw themselves pitty parties and deflect blame... I am very forgiving of Indy companies... but AV has mishandled just about everything it could have for the past 5 - 6 years.

oh waah waah waah

If this was another company, say Mythic or EA, you guys supplied NO MERCY against GOA when the first 3 days they had a bad launch. AND DONT EVEN DENY IT. You guys literally invaded the WAR forums assking for blood.

But now, because it is a company of a game that you guys wanna play, "AWWW look at poor Tasos....let's all give him a hug"

Bunch of friggen hypocrits..........

And he deserves no mercy, the guy ran his mouth for years, insulting his loyal customers, and now realizes "shit maybe i am wrong?"

Hey dumbass, if the average gamer told you that your magical AI bots and "professional testers" are not enough, then you better beleive it. Not our fault you are all incompetant at your jobs..any dimwit knows that what haappens on a private test server, is NEVER what happenson a live server.

So Mr. Tasos et all....next time, stop living in your delusional world. You will sleep better at night.

 

And to the fans who are defending AV....next time another company launches an mmo.....you better be the last people i see complaining about a game or launch.

Guys, lack of sleep on the 2 hours a night deal is common with software rollouts.   I've done it many times, so have others who have been a part of that sort of thing.

Also common with really any industry when you are an entreprenuer and you are bring your brainchild to market.

Of course they are working hard.

But that doesn't entirely absolve them of these terrible billing problems or the rest of it.

And it certainly doesn't make it any more sensical to give such noninformational, sporadic at best updates.

Somewhere between fanbois and troll there is the common sense middle ground - wish more folks would find it.

Nice post.

Only problem is that you are fanboy if you like the game and a troll if you don't.

Nothing like waking up to the words of cry babies in the morning! What does this say about you people who endlessly complain about video games? What's the phrase that comes to mind? No life?

Really. This is a game. It's not real. Don't you people have more important things to focus on in your lives other than berating a man and a company none of you have no personal knowledge about?

How sad are your lives that you must QQ more about games than simply talk about the games you like? Seriously, if you don't like Darkfall, GTFO out the forums and leave it for people who actually enjoy the game. Why don't you do something constructive with your lives like go to the forums of games you do like and do what you can to support them.

So much for "ready to launch" for about 5 years now

 

Well, I guess they were ready. They just met all these issues at the actual launch that I guess they didn't see coming. :/

 

Anyways.. I just wanna say with this that Aventurine lives up to their motto which is NO COMPROMISE

 

"NO COMPROMISE"  --- Really?

 

No compromise on pre-orders?

No compromise on guard towers?

No compromise on Name tags?

No compromise on housing?

No compromise on game stability and readiness?

No compromise on delivering the best possible game experience for the staggered, limited Release?

 

Hmm... yeah.  If only that no compromise was true.

I don't reckon forum posting about gaming is a feature of a productive life no matter how positive you are.

But man, relax a bit.   Most of us save the majority of our positivity for our clan forums.

Even then, only a fool puts his head in the sand about a game they intend to spend countless hours playing over months.  

Just smile and ingore the problems?

What for?

It won't get any more subscriptions, much less keep them to be dishonest about it.

Tasos brought it on himself. A mutli million dollar loan and they didnt hire anyone else. Hundreds out thousands of people waiting to play and they didnt hire some new staff. Tasos stinks like blizzard, his eyeballs are so full of dollar signs i doubt he sleeps much eigther. When he does close his eyes all he can think is "if i can just get this game out with only these 20 guys on staff then i can rake in the dough and then get the hell out of here."

BTW, does tasos have 20 hours days? Is he living in an alternate universe or something?

I wasn't going to say anything, but really? Are you retarded? Where does it say he sleeps 4 hours every 16 hours and also goes to sleep at the same time every day? You do realize that if you only sleep a bare minimum, you won't be following a regular sleep schedule, right? That should have been common sense, since that's literally what he said, but God forbid a chance might slip through your fingers for you to make an ass out of yourself.

    If the Dev team got more rest, their minds would be more alert during the coding process and the code wouldn't be in the shoddy condition its in now. Of course that would have pushed the devlopment cycle up to 16 years.

I hope Tasos' R&R time is reduced to an hour every two days...Maybe he'll learn to not make so many far-fetched promises later in life.
