Because you didn't provide anything to diskussion about waht sandbox is on your own i assume you consider my description of what a sandbox is as valid.
However, I also agree with xzyax in that the definition of a sandbox is subjective to the person. In that regard, I'm not going to tell you you're "right" or "wrong". It's your personal opinion. And spare me the nonsense in your first paragraph. I have rebutted your baseless generalizations, spin and inaccurate statements time and again for months now, always with thorough and detailed replies. I have done so at least once in this very thread.

Put aside that you haven't played DarkFall at all according to your second paragraph you state sandbox is subjective to the person. How can you claim then that DarkFall is "a very weak attempt at creating a sandbox" ? For you there isn't a definition for a sandbox, therefor you cant know what a sandbox is therefor you aren't entitled to call it a "weak attempt". The most you can do is say "i cant say anything about if Darkfall is sandbox " counting in the fact that you haven't played it at all and CANT have subjective impressions of its nature. making statements about Darkfall being sandbox or not don't even match your own requirement of an "definition" (that of it cant be defined cause its a subjective impression") and you not entitled to them. thx.. next attept

Now... maybe down the road the game will be more fleshed out and I'll see it differently. For now, though, that's not the case. Were I completely new to DF and knew nothing about it, the "you haven't played" comment would maybe be your "ace card" here. However, since that'snot the case... well... nice try :).

You have your own right to do what you want but if it comes to make comments and talk about it you have to follow some honesty. You limited yourself agreeing on something like "sand box can't be defined is a subjective impression" and then write how AV approach is "a weak attempt in building" a sandbox. All your sources in blue cant help you there, the written ones like reviews articles etc are their subjective impressions and according to your own opinion they can't count for you. Same goes for videos etc. everyone of those has be shot and taken from a perspective that isnt yours. Be cerefully in what you agree next time. Darkfall is a sandbox because two objective conditions can be applyied on the game design. The first is the non instanced seamless world and the second is that factors like classes and player levels and quest requirements don't limit your gameplay content., you are free to do what you would like and choose your own path in these open world. We looking at a sandbox if we look at Darkfall. >.< PS and about 3. i would take care not to become a dubious track record in talking big about things you don't know if i were you. -----MY-TERMS-OF-USE-------------------------------------------------- Everyone who logs into NGE destroys a bit of the SW Universe.

No one could expect how hard they will get beaten and how much they will suck in such a competitive game. You have to have nerves of steel, thick skin and the patience for an century and most had to found out that they are little whiners and quitters lol

heh heh I laugh at the thought of boosting your self esteem and machismo through a video game. You should take up MMA darth, get some of that testosterone out of your system! though that might be too hardcore for even the most hardcore of hardcore darkfall players rofl. |

Next, as for another of your statements... the whole "sand box can't be defined is a subjective impression" bit. Read my post again. I never said that. I *agreed* that one's impression of what makes a (key words here:) *good sandbox* is subjective. Nowhere did I say it isn't. So the rest of your little rant there is completely moot. Try *reading* what I say next time, instead of responding to things I didn't. Next... And... just to make it more interesting, here's a challenge for you:

LOL please stop make me laugh already ..You try hard to to spin your way out of these lol I will remember that you said ..AV did "a weak attempt in creating a sandbox" followed by "I also agree with xzyax in that the definition of a sandbox is subjective to the person" in the next paragraph and admit that you never had subjective impressions. How does look like the man if you watch at the mirror ? Do you like him like that ? Be more carefully in the future...lol ..and don't jump in discussions if you lacking knowledge about the things beeing discussed..at least be carefully how you put things while you do it ..

No reason to be careful. I've made my points very clearly. You're the one who can't respond directly to anything without first spinning and misconstruing it.
I'm finished with you on this topic. I've made my point. You've done your best to spin it as only you can. I've challenged you twice to provide information that would prove all the sources I've cited as not being an accurate or thorough represenation of what DF offers. That you've completely dodged it both times speaks volumes alone.

You leving these thread a bit too late dont you think , damage to your honesty is already done. You jumped in to attack me personally and not to contribute anything to discussion after i called you on these to make a statement on topic you make mistakes and look like someone who makes bold statements and cant base em , whether on personal experience nor on common sense. You agreed sandbox is a subejctive term and is for everyone different and then you forgot to mention to tell people that IN YOUR OPINION based on hearsay, on reviews other people wrote, without being witness of the game you making these bold statement "Darkfall is a weak attempt in sandbox". It is not fact , it is like you admited YOUR not informed subjective opinion. You will also have difficulties in argumentation if you dont drop your "definition" of a sandbox to participate in any discussion about that topic. See you can't say anything else then, "for me is not sandbox", but "you have every right to call it a sandbox all you want", "You also have the right to call it a good sandbox because iis all subjective and i don't know what a sandbox is for everyone."

Now they have "Darkfall is not a sandbox" on their agenda. Its funny how they always being proven wrong and still they come back with even more weird claims and their insults. Someone drops a idiotic idea like "DarkFall is not a sandbox" , then all DarkFall stalker jumps in and congratulate the genious for this idea. if someone else shows common sense and .."oh god forbid he claims the opposite" that Darkfall is a sandbox, tells everyone why he think these and demostrate his claim. He get jumped and mobed by various namecalling from people who don't even wanna discuss in these forum but just troll.

I dont mean any insult, its just one of those things you have to be on the "outside" to understand Im sure you take all this very seriously. But please keep going. One other thing I would like to add is your a star already here at the office, to the point people were just looking for your posts in the morning to start off the day, it has calmed down a bit more lately but non the less, credit where its due.

In light of the huge, off-topic flame war (c'mon guys, there's about 5 other threads you could fight in) that's broken out over whether or not DF is a sandbox I have to say this catchphrase has to be declared the winner of the contest.

Our R&D department using DX Studio for supporting their CAD applications, i see it has a really wide range of possible applications. My company is developing laboratory equipment for biological and medical facilities. Personally like you probably would bet i am not working in marketing/sales or communications department, but in IT. All the managers hold the marketing guys for VIP's but i am seeing the R&D guys as the most important. You R&D's producing something, the Salesman wouldn't have anything to sell without your work.
