Calling DF: UW a beta is a joke and dishonest to people pre-ordering this game. The game is at the alpha stage~ at best. I can't think of a single beta that was this poorly coded except maybe the early days of Mortal Online.

 

/and no, saying its a poorly coded mess doesnt break the NDA. Posting any opinion threads about who would like this game is a waste of time because this thing is long way off from release and will change a lot in the time prior to release.

Errr well sure the game is not ready for release but saying its in an alpha state is just not true at all..

Alpha tests are there to test the core mechanics of the game engine.. beta is there to test the gameplay mechanics.. yes there will be few core engine bugs in the beta due to the sheer numbers testing compared to alpha..

Anyway the game is in an early to mid beta state and yes not ready for release and was no where near ready for release in nov let alone dec... LOL

Thus the backlash...AV intentionally lied  about to games status to sell preorders.

I'm hoping this is going to be more than a large arena.  Not sure if anyone can say anything about the PvE, but is it more worthwhile/interesting than the first DF?  Would be nice to have viable PvP and PvE.

PVE is definitely a lot worse than before.

I am Lineage 2 vet and am waiting for DFUW release.

Thanks that you reminded me how great L2 was back in the early chronicles. Now it seems to be quite crappy as they made it more casual.
