Hi.  I believe everything I read on the internet.

Fanbots have been repeating over and over again, ad nauseum, that Darkfall was a game that a bunch of gamers made to play themseleves with their buddies. And that happenes to be exactly true.

Good luck with Vaporfail.

Question, are GM's also not pain employees of AVENTURINE? Because if not, then they same just as professional as their moderators.

Does anyone know the answer to this question? Because unless  they are paid and controled in person by AV (aka it's their real life job/livelihood) i can garantee you that even if this particular episode is total bullcrap that sooner rather than later there will be an episode that will be 110% true.

There are good reasons that most MMO's totally phased out volunteer GM's a long time ago  and those that kept them put serious restrictions on what they could do (number one normally being they could not GM on server they played on, then no ability to ban, no ability to create items so forth)

Hell there have even been many cases where paid employee's get up to hi·jinks

WoW favors Alliance and hates Horde.

Warhammer favors Destruction and hates Order.

Darkfall Gms cheat for their clans.

LOTRO likes and favors players and hates Creeps.

SWG hates Jedis but loves Traders.

EQ2 likes Queynos and hates Freeport.

FFXI loves Ninjas and hates Paladins.

CoH GMs helps Heros but ignores Villians.

_____ loves _______ and hates ________. (insert your tinfoil conspiracy theory here please)

Just an observation, but I am starting to see a trend with odd behavior and glitches concerning games that only have 1 server. Take EVE for example, which has actually been out for quite a few years now. It's no secret that CCP has helped certain corporations and alliances in the past with rewards and special treatment. Now you have Darkfall, a similar game, because it's PvP, Sandbox, High Risk and only has 1 server ( at the moment ).

Is it because theirs only 1 server that people notice wierd things going on? Is it because theres only 1 server that if GMs or Developers were indeed corrupt, that it would be harder to hide such things? CCP is an indy company as is Aventurine. Somehow, I'm beginning to think Indy companies are bringing a two-faced agenda to the table. One is to make a game that they want and enjoy, which is perfectly fine and expected. Hell, I know if I developed a game, it would be everything I'd want. However, it's looking like CCP and Aventurine are letting loose a dark aura about how games should be run.

Should Developers and GMs be allowed to play the game they designed or work for? Is the feeling or desire to cheat too high a risk? If the game was launched with multiple servers, I'd probably say sure, no problem. However, EVE and Darkfall are both single server games and that just spells utter doom for any guaranteed player satisfaction when it comes to honest and unbiased gameplay.

EVE has proven that greed corrupts and Darkfall isn't setting any bright new examples with the current player feedback.

Just to get it all in the open in case it hasn't already been divulged.

 

Claus, the lead developer of Darkfall Online is a member of KillCult.

Claus, the lead developer of Darkfall Online is a good friend of LoD's GM.

No accusations here, just stating facts. I'll let other people draw their own conclusions!

From one of the many threads about this incident.

 

It's the 2nd or 3rd time this has happened to the guild. No matter how many are travelling, no matter how many are grouped, no matter where they are located. People have seen weird crashes when travelling in large zergs, that's not altogether odd. To get them when not in a mass, or not even moving? Interesting

Sound like the lead dev there.

Fail.

Blizzard likes Horde and Hates Alliance.

in AV Horde had a Short cut for a long period of time.

Blizzard recently added a Orc Statue to their Office.

In Vanilla WoW, Horde had OP Shaman class, while Alliance had weak Healbot Paladins that were the 2nd worst tank in the game, and the worst Dps and healer in the game.

Horde has the Triangle in AB that gives them access to 4 Areas fast and safely.

guys i do beleive something is wrong here

i am in in wessex , and when we raid we have close to 800 with us and never have we all just been dced

some yes but never a whole clan or allies

we did seige the same night as them and if the server was unstable i am sure it would have affected the 800 or so worse then the 50-100 or so not even close to the battle field. there is somethgin goign on and it is fishy

I love how anytime something bad happens in Darkfall the same people are always here to express there amazing opinions. There not even in game and they seem to have all the answers. We'll here's one from someone who is Actually playing.. There is a big patch today.
 
Thank you for taking time out from Lord of the Rings though and sharing your valuable Darkfall information with us all

Still, it was informative.

And, if we had been waiting for you, or Paragus, or RobertB, or Javak to bring it up or discuss potential problems like this, I think we'd all have been waiting a long, LONG time.

Mind you it's not like any of us who havn't got a copy of the game can realisticly expect to get one anytime soon evan if we wanted too.  Not that that is an excuse to say nothing about it but would seem like some sort of investigation is warrented.
 

The thing is, if this type of activity is going on, who is going to investigate the investigaters of the investigated?

It sounds like they run the game as if it was a private server being run in a persons basement.

Why would anyone hate this "news"? I mean, besides the fact that 99.8% of these "enhances, updates and tweaks" should have been taken care of pre-launch? (see what I did? )

Better late then never : )

But seriously, in a perfect world no MMO would need to patch a game after releaese since everything should be done pre launch as you say. To bad every game continues to evolve long after launch. Even a big company had to patch a lot after launch, Blizzard to.... if anyone remember that?

I don't know all that much about the T2 scandal but I'm sure Kyleran or someone can elaborate further. Last time a GM favored a corp it was by restoring BoB's name. A petition started, and now they are Kenzo again. Even the T2 scandal was dealt with promptly, and in the aftermath the player run oversight committee was started by CCP allowing  actual players to police their own games devs!!! Yes, CCP has had some scandals, but it also manages to save face everytime.

Honestly though, EVE players like the scandals. Be honest, don't those icelandic codemonkeys always manage to put a smile on your face with their shennanigans?

Most mind bogling thing to me, is WHY peoples bother with this POS of a game.

No clue, but watching DF players come back for more after Tasos uses them as human toilet paper time and time again is just priceless.

It really is quite amusing, isn't it? Hard to feel pity for them anymore.

Tasos has them well-trained after treating the MMORPG community like garbage all those years. The treatment by Aventurine is part of the DF hardcore experience at this point.
