your standards must be extremly low if you were to call this the best mmo you have ever played

 

either that, or yours are extremely backwards, like the folk up in bluegrass mountain, they feed their kids to the sheep instead of feeding the sheep to their kids....

chances are the latter cause i also think this is the best mmorpg made in the last ten years....now you probably don't because you like graphics and stuff, and I can understand that, after all who doesn't want to play a glorified disney movie.

 

or I'm a guy who expects more from a game that has been in development for 8 years to have better animations then some amateur high school project, or to actually have a good system in place for the obvious macroer/hacker onslaught that are hell-bent on making the game unenjoyable for everyone else

listen i want darkfall to succeed as it will encourage big corporate devs to break from the wow-clone formula and try something new, and enough with your assumptions you moron, if i were interested in the graphics in this game then I wouldn't be here
 

I love the people who have not played Darkfall, but yet feel compelled to share their views of the game, Haha!

+1 for the I'm special crowd  ;)

Why we should play an FPS for enjoyable combat ..

From now on ..there is an option within the MMORPG genre for that . I am happy i dont have to play an additionally Action/Singleplayer/FPS game anymore (Mount and Blade) and can concetrate my whole time into one place .. For my MMORPG fix and my twitched combat fix now there is a optimal solution .. 

 

Yep, its called planetside, and it came out in 2003.

Never played it ..and now too late ..i already have fun with DarkFall and in next years i have a home ..

wait is it hosted by $OE? ...oooohhh lol ..NO MONEY TO THE $OE suckers ..NEVER.. since 2005 ...no business with these online criminals..they put the NGE in place

Read my post above .-.NO MONEY TO $OE SUCKERS..they have put the NGE on me..

What a bunch of sad people think I somehow need to explain in detail my love for this game and defend it from your accusations. I'm not going to jump into that wagon thanks.

You know you guys are not going to enjoy any MMO ever. Your here camping the MMO's forum you hate the most and bashing it with all your strenght. What a bunch of sad bandas.

You don't know what you want thats your problem and you can't let go of all your vanity thinking how everything is supposed to be.

Watch the videos. Some of thoes ARE 400+ players at one battle. 28+ weapons, 38+ vehicles. With planes, tanks, mechs, buggys, dropships, 100% PvP.

Darkfall has 2 swings and a blue ball.

It's a waste of time, they will only tighten down the blinders and continue to whistle.

I agree! Darkfall has set up a new level for the MMO genre. This is it, Darkfall has set the point for the rest of MMO history, where MMOs will be classified as pre-Darkfall or post-Darkfall. The new era has NOTHING to do with the old MMOs, this is something else, that has to be experienced to believe. Tasos will be giving conferences around the world, MILLIONS will play Darkfall, and if they don't it's because they are not real MMO players.

HALLELUJA!!!

I havent played DF yet, but I find it quite intriguing that....

The majority of people who say comments like this have not even played the game.

Irony at its best.

 altair all you do is come to these boards and complain about the game your not interested in playing.

I do too agree that it is one of the best mmo's.

let me break it down for you Mr. Simple dimple
 

darkfall = immersion (Your personal opinion)

no autolock (You just described several other MMOs and all FPS)

free loot (Actually valid)

sandbox (arguable... static placement of cities/towns/buildings. Difficult if not impossible to be a non-combatant)

vendors (Is in every MMO... grats on this being pointless)

building (Same as vendors above...)

ships (Has been done before, but I will give this to you since it is rare.)

pillaging (Subjective and vague. Has been done in several other MMOs to same extent as DF)

300+ battles and sieges - first time in mmorpg history (Absurd... Many other MMOs including some F2P have had battles much bigger)

100's of skills (Subjective and not entirely true. If you include passive skills MMOs like WOW and EQII have as many if not more skills... completely misleading.)

no magic bolt I, magic bolt II, magic bolt III (Actually misleading, power of spell increases with active skill rank and other schools have similar if not exact same spells with different damage types.)

catch my drift simple?

Not seeing anything incredibly earth shattering... If it is the best for you I am happy for you. However it is all subjective and should be stated as such.

k now walk to "i've been schooled shrine" and pray.

This made me laugh... Put your epeen away son... you are going to hurt yourself.

To the OP... I am glad the game is what you have been looking for. I never knock anyone for something that is subjective and I hope you have many long months and years of enjoyment from the game. If they make some changes to the combat depth you may get to try and kill me at some point in the future.

Some of your comments are not entirely true. There are well over 100 spells, pretty sure over 150 as well, havent counted them but probably near 200.

Sure, most of them have a projectile, but that is because they are aimed, and most of them have different effects, unless you count the "upgrades" from the same school. Even the ones that are similar, have drastically different mana costs and traveling speeds, so useable in different situations.

Most of them are NOT passive as well.

You may want to check this out - darkfallnews.blogspot.com/2009/01/full-darkfall-spell-list.html - this is fairly outdated as well, so things have only improved.

Also, about combat depth, you may not have realized but all characters are "hybrids" so all of those "Straight melee" characters you are seeing in videos will most likely be adding some sort of variety to their arsenal soon enough, once they max out their weapon skills. For example, from the first spell tree alone, "Come Hither" could be immensely valuable to a melee character for obvious reasons. Also, there are "polar opposites" in the spell trees, so every character actually does have quite a few decisions for customization, as well as a large amount of time to train in to them all.

Coming from games like AC, the skill system is fairly similar, and it is quite decieving how much depth the combat in games that have these sorts of skill systems.

Next thing you know he will be telling everyone to drink from a cup so they can all commit mass suicide together.

/wait isn't that what cults do?

Hopefully they add animations to go along with better / different skills. Not just for the graphic whores or people who don't want to get mind numbingly bored, it helps with pvp. If you run around and see this guy pvping and just overhead swinging, how do you know he is doing skill 1 or skill 50? Sure damage is different but right now that's it. You can cut/paste skills 50x over and say here are 50 skills enjoy. That doesn't mean there really are 50 skills. Ive never played the game so take it for what it is, however from every single video it looks this way. 

Everyone just keeps saying it's because they are newbs but everyone knows macroing is in the game atm and if you guys can kill dragons already, i'm sure someone has seen most of the skills already. Or are dragons easy to kill? (serious question)
