The Darkfall blog has been updated with the news that the official launch date for Darkfall: Unholy Wars has been moved to December 12, 2012. The release was originally planned for November 20th.

We’re obviously not happy about this development, however we’re geared to make the best of the extra three weeks by further improving the release version of Darkfall Unholy Wars, while keeping the postponement of the launch as short as possible.

Hard to wait, but I'm glad they did this.  As I said in my post this is a one-shot deal for AV.  They can't afford a repeat like the original release, that would be completely unacceptable at this point.  They are going to get a large bump in subs of players returning to try out DF:UW and its absolutly necessary the release goes smooth.

Can't wait for December 12!

whats happening on the 12th?

I'm okay with this. Consider that their country was in civil unrest over the past week. As long as these three weeks are used properly and can provide us with a smoother launch then I see no problem with a delay, fits into the college scheduel much better as well.

its not suprising considering they have delayed releasing friday updates before now because one of their staff members had a cold..

I thought the end of the world was supposed to be Dec. 21 not 12th.

That's the Mayan Calendar.  This is the MMORPG Calendar.

I really hope nobody believes in that mayan crap. If they had the power to predict the future, then why is their entire culture in ruins? Moreover, there isn't one single fact in regards to the end of the world: http://www.nasa.gov/topics/earth/features/2012.html

About Darkfall's delay? Sweet! It gives me more time to play some Black Ops 2!

Yes, but the author of this article refered to the Mayan Calendar and said it's the 12th when in fact it's the 21st which I double checked making his point moot.

11/11/11 was a good date

hopefully 12/12/12 will be even better.

noobs still waiting for Darkfall 2010

Think about this: funhulks

LOLOLOL

I am neither surprised nor disappointed.

I am sure many people will be making a big deal out of it...

If they think they will be able to deliver a better product 3 weeks later, then it is good news for us. I consider it better to release a game that is finished than to hurry up and deliver an unfinished product full of bugs.

 Holy Hell ,  Really?

 I figured surely considering the money is being put forth by someone other than AV that their normal shenanigans would stop. Apparently not ... so how many times are we going to see this be delayed? The last time this sort of bit happened it was delayed close to the date, then delayed again close to the date, then they released a date and it ran over it and we got an some lame apology about it, then nothing for a year.

AV you really are the absolute worst mmo company ever to disgrace the genre, completely unprofessional. Atleast SV releases their "crap", and that's saying something.
