Just like they did during the beta.


I'm not talking about trolling posts. I saw one that was a semi-negative review, and it got deleted a few moments later. It was like 3 pages long at the time too.

 

Same thing happened in beta. We'll see how long this keeps up for, I am rather entertained to say the least. It's how "indie" companies do it, right fanboys?

Ya, I'm a big fan of the FFA PvP concept, and I've been following DF for 8 years.

Their official forums are worthless because of their obnoxious moderators.

Lets face it, MMOs today are turning into single player console games with a chat box included.

See, this is pretty much why I rip on Darkfall. I played UO, I played AC, I'm a huge fan of the massive virtual world, sandbox, do your own thing  crazyness they're trying to do. What I'm not a fan of however is the complete amature hour joke the game has been and continues to be. The game actually looks passable, were it not for the horrible mind bending sound effects/lack of music but more importantly, the absolutely horrific company behind it.

Yeah, forum fall is pretty much only for people who are looking to sing Kum ba ya around a campfire and not serious comparisions or discussion.

there is a perfectly logical reason they do these things and <Mod edit>, you would notice most of the time they try to contain multiple threads about the same thing into one thread. They then either delete the repeats or roll them into one thread AFTER warning people about this. most well moderated forums (read: not this one) do that.
 
they do the same thing with positive posts...

. im sure that they have closed posts there that are not really troll posts but actual reviews and such. is that wrong? sure. but you must remember that no one is perfect and that stuff happens. the posts on darkfall's forums that ive seen closed is when there is 15 posts about the same topic. is that really needed? no so they have the right to limit a conversation to one or two posts not 15. i like it better that way anyways then you can get everyones opinion in a couple posts instead of being spread out all over the forum

No.

You obviously need to work on your reading comprehension skills, as you seem to have missed the point completely.

Organizing the clutter is not what OP is talking about.

The OP is talking about the way the official DF forums are stifling any review of the game that is not 100% "OMG DF ROXXORZ".

Learn to read. 

Maybe you need hooked on phonics or something?

It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

 What gets me is that darkfall said that the reason you didn't see much dev responses on the boards confirming or denying anything is because they weren't going to moderate the boards. Just let anything go, good or bad. Then they realize that they made the game sound better than it was, and now they are going back on their word.

 

Another red flag. So far due to red flags i'm waiting for 6 months before even considering buying the game.

I'm waiting for the North American servers before I touch the game... I'll give it a fresh look then. But given the animations and sound, the horrible melee combat and all in all lack of polish, if Mortal Online launches in better shape during this summer and DF still doesn't have NA servers, there's no way I'll even bother with DF because it's run by the devs that stifle and block every negative or even SEMI negative comment about the game.

 

Imagine closing topics where a CUSTOMER is saying "This feature is broken, mind fixing it?" and it gets deleted so nobody knows about it. By the way, that's all in Brannoc's hands too -- so we can blame him almost entirely.

And?? What are you saying that because someone is an ex WOW player their opinion is somehow not as important as yours? They somehow dont deserve to be heard like you because they played a game that you dont like?? Real good line of thought there bud.

If that were the case then both negative and positive threads would get deleted if they had no "understanding"...

Weak excuse for innapropriate actions by a company with actual paying customers. I also love how anyone that does not bend over in praise of this game suddenly is a WoW fan. What a rediculous and ignorant assumption.

I think its more that the devs and fanbots (Such as yourself) hyped this game to no tomorrow. When release rolled around, it it failed to meet the lofty claims set for it, why would you be surprised when people began to lash out?

And why would anyone want another WoW? If you like WoW, you play WoW. The people who quit WoW find it boring, so they would not want another WoW.

Actually the game met its hype its excellent. Just need to fix bugs the same bugs every mmo has when released. AV just has less people to fix it with , but they seem to be managing. If it wasnt for their downtime I probably wouldnt sleep lol.

How in the world could it have met the hype when it has not even had 10K users on at the same time. When city building has not even begun to ramp up... when the game content, UI, skills... are only a fraction of what they were proclaimed to be.  What a rediculous statement to make and so very premature. The game may BECOME great, but it has clearly not met the hype so far. The fanbots wonder why no one listens to them... example A.
