For anyone actually interested in what Tasos said at the event, he said that they are planning for open beta to start a week before release on the 15th , and the open beta client will be on a bittorent linked from the forums when he makes an announcement in a few days so we have time to download it

Dunno if it is true though

adding this:
Tasos also said that there will be a full status update for the community about the progress that has been made so far in beta, and he hopes that we will support the decisions about the game Aventurine have made to make the 22nd possible.

Take the information with a grain of salt.

Good. Though we've heard such promises before, I'll wait for the 15th then to decide how things are going.

Does this sound to anyone else like a premature excuse for missing content and features ? "Support the decisions about the game Aventurine have made to make the 22nd -possible-"?

Well...we shall see.

i wonder what there cutting  out to make a Jan 22nd  release  ?  not that it matters either way ppl would bitch and cry 

If thay delayed release and finished testing everything ppl would cry

and if thay release with some things not funcinal ppl will cry so it dont matter TBH

Aventurine will never satisfy the masses, unfortunetly.

Hmm.. There was easy solution, they could announce open beta test date without release date. I will laugh if there will be many bugs/problems in open beta. It will remind (probably) me of some game which i dont remember now :D

It seems Aventurine is pretty confident that they will succeed, wish them luck or curse them.

This is just rumor mongering on the part of the Rikku wannabe and the person (s)he is quoting. You can take their silence to mean anything.

That said they already announced things they pushed off or completely removed from their FAQ like prestige classes, henchmen (controllable NPCs to do tasks like bots) and caravans.

Since you're alluding to me here.....errr, wtf?

I quoted the OP, who apparently quoted someone from the official Darkfall Boards. I'm going on information the community presents and -ASKED- if anyone else thought that the sattement given sounded a bit like cut content.

I did not assume anything. Learn to read m8.

U do realise there are 50 Tasos's on that chat channel, and everyone is chatting shit, and your posting things like you actually beleived anyhting on the chat room????

j

Just came back from the event.

Just from what i remember.

Servers are somewhere in germany (in this state) running on multiple processing cores (didnt hear well i will explain why),the backbone structure is enough to support way more than 10000 users but this limit is a safe cap so everything runs smoothly

22 of january still stands,the game launch is imminent (free translation)

Tasos corrected the 3 million info and the 50 devs info,into 300000 users subscribed,30+ devs.

They showed a short version of darkfall 17 mins video.

Talked about bussiness plans and their efforts to secure a publisher that fits their goals.

Talked about how shity greece is in the technologic department and that the state doesn't really care about anything about technology.

I personally asked tasos when he came out if an open beta will take place and he said yes and nod his head agreeing with it.He was pretty confident and he is pretty tall,i am 1,82 and he is about 10 cm taller.Right after my question a chick from eurobank(a representative i believe) came and talked things with him and another person about some bussiness advise i believe.

I left after that cause the rain was starting again and i had the family car which my parents needed asap.

BTW the place was overcrowded and actually i was out of the building the whole time that's why i didn't hear much.Also i had the impression that most people in the room didn't know what an mmorpg is (the audience was a bit old,but not very old) so tasos had to oversimplify things.

Something a little more realistic.

My feelings on this game are so conflicted... I sincerely hope this game will make it and be somewhat "done" (or should I say ready) when they release, but just like most people, I just can't see it happening right now... But, if this info is true there's only 1 week left until we all can finally try it ourselves and make up our own opinions. I can't wait!!! And even if the info about beta isn't accurate, the 22nd isn't too far away either I guess.

open beta in 1 week.

hope they cut something we don't need like ship combat it looks half baked anyways

I feel simular I'm started to get really excited about the possibility that I will be playing the game soon (1 week!), even though the logical part of me knows I wont.

I am tellin you it isn't going to happen.

It's complete freakin bullshit. If they wanted to do an open beta than what is the point of waiting until the 15'th to do it?

Why not do it RIGHT NOW? Why do it with 7 days left to launch?

I'll be the first to say it:

- Player housing not implemented

- Player ship building not implemented

- 100 skills implemented ( 30 atk, 10 def, 10 craftable, 100 others)

- Globla Chat implemented

- " Trammel " implemented.

Hehe, the biggest disappointment for me would be the "Trammel" implementation and global chat.

Another one that would make me drop any Darkfall hope instantly would be level based gameplay!  I've been waiting for a decent skill based game for years!
Since UO and of course SWG (pre-cu).

These are interesting times indeed.

Praytell where is the following in the uneditted OP?

1. Good. Though we've heard such promises before, I'll wait for the 15th then to decide how things are going.

2. Dunno if it is true though
Does this sound to anyone else like a premature excuse for missing content and features ? "Support the decisions about the game Aventurine have made to make the 22nd -possible-"?

Well...we shall see.

Please try harder to mask your desire to project your negativity of the game since that seems to be your agenda now.

I thought the game was feature complete?
