As a beta tester, i was one of many who saw this launch coming.  We begged them to delay and get it sorted out, and you better believe I am very upset with them for messing this up....they made a huge noob move and look pretty bad.

BUT

Just like WoW...they are admitting their mistake...offering 3 days of free play for the 1 day of delay.  Does it excuse them not being ready?  of course not....but it does show that they know when they messed up.

Fact is...they have released the game, and the game is still amazing.  The fact that they are retarded with their billing system and ability to handle the flow is a seperate issue.

So sorry if you are claiming "the skeptic were right"...no you werent.  The game isnt vaporware, it released, and the game itself is still the best pvp mmo on the market right now in the fantasy setting....they just are absolutly retarded when it came to how they handled billing.

This was expected though, as the haters were going to say they were right now matter what happened, so of course they are getting wet over this....pretty sad when you see gamers say "yes yes yes the game failed"....i feel bad for them.

I know for me, I'll look at whether it failed in 6mth to a year out from the full release.  Right now to me, it doesn't look good though, it appears to have all the flaws of Shadowbane in both concept and design, which is unfortunate as I believe alot of people were looking at this as the spiritual successor for shadowbane.

That being said, I wish them luck and hope that they don't have a major failure on their hands, but with the weak launch and (what I see as) a faulty concept, I don't expect the game to survive long, which is a shame really as we need more niche style games.

I could be wrong (it has been known to happen on occasion) and hope I am, but I am certainly not going to hold my breath.

Do you realise what you just said?

You begged them to delay the game but at least they admited there mistake by giving all players TWO FUCKING extra days???

So your saying they needed to delay the game by two days?????

You fanbois are hilarious.

Only pre-orders can log in, no new account registrations will be activated until the server is "stable".  Hell not even all of the pre-orders are activated.  Thus, the game has not been released, just in paid closed beta.

Hello,

The three days is to compensate for the two days game play lost by the delays, I would of though this was quiet obvious.. but..

Are you so quick to troll that you dont bother to read?

You really read my post as me implying they needed to delay by two days?  Yea the fans are the hilarious ones...what are you doing here again?

The fact that they are giving us 3 (why do trolls always change numbers to make their arguement sound more legit...maybe cause they know they are trolling) days just like WoW did on their botched release is them saying that they messed up and giving us something for it...obviously an extra day or two wouldnt have changed this release...they needed a new billing system all together.

That is exactly how I see it too.

The only difference before today is that there are now a bit more people in the game.

Well, technically there is one more difference, and that is that Aventurine is getting paid now for letting people beta test the game.

Ah well, nice for the people who are having fun in the game at the moment (or not yet?). But very bad for the people who wanted to play it and actually did pre-order but not getting anything now. I would hardly call this a release.

All I can say is I'm reminded of the launch Horizon's had and that game never recovered from it, nor did the companies that have owned it since.

Yes, the people saying Darkfall is NOT in any way shape or form the answer to MMOs and the future of the genre were absolutly right. They were right 3-4 years ago and they are right today. Some people ( I will not mention names) are just too dense to notice it right now.

But the time for talking is over. The game is out. It is released. No more dreams, welcoem to reality. I give you two months, then I want to hear just exactly how wonderful and fantastic everything, how it blows Shadowbane, EVE and any other PvP game out of the water. Please.. Two months... And reality, no more fantasies and outright marketing lies. The real game. The best there is... Or Not.

Its relased?  Awesome!  Can you please link me to where I can purchase it?  Also, can you please alert me as to why I can still sign up for beta?

My god, is that all you got? do you think that if you keep bringing up World of Warcraft up that it will justify your argument.??
 

News flash: WoW is more fucking polished than Darkfall with ever be.

You know it would be much easier if you just said oops sorry yea i messed up and read too fast.  Since you ignored the points me and another poster made and decided to just bash df randomly....thats basically saying you know you were wrong.

Apology accepted.

Good Grief, imbant.  You seemed completely obssessed with "haters" and "trolls" and "skeptics"  You can't simply say, "We get three days of compensation. (or whatever the latest news is)  Yay!", you have to bring up trolls again and again.  You even anticipate what a "troll" might say before they've even seen it. let alone respond, like some fortune teller.  You have post after post doing it, too.  What is up with that?

You cannot honestly claim that as an informed opinion. High level abilities were not in beta. Advanced ships were not in beta. Advanced crafting was not in beta. Beta was not tested with enough players to fully test guild warfare. Basically, you played a shell of a game, and, driven by pure fanboyism, can't admit that the game still has to prove itself.

Keep back pedeling and making excuses.  I have to say, it's really funny.  You fanboys are the ones fueling aventurine right now. You are giving them the right to take your money, and give you nothing in return.

The skeptics were right, I don't understand why you can't see that.  Most said that Aventurine was incapable of running a game with all of the promises they had set forth, yet, you still give them room to keep f'ing y ou over.  What's next "Tasos breaks into a liquor store and shoots the clerk!"  And you guys will dismiss it as "The clerk was probably bashing Darkfall.."  like usual.. Stop bending over and taking it when you don't have to..   STand up and demand a product you pay for WORK instead of constantly defending it.  It's like battered wives syndrom..
