You fanboys crack me up. Any and I do mean any review that comes out as negative towards DF will be met with he was a carebear blah blah blah. Fact is DF is garbage. They can't even update their damn website to show what is currently available in the game which is practically nothing. 

DF is nothing but a fps in a persistant empty world.

i play df, i have fun.  who are you to tell me what i love or hate?  you're nobody.

i play eve, i have fun.  i like a lot of things about eve.  some combat mechanics (esp. POS warfare) i think are total crap.

i play coh, i have fun.  tons of stuff about that game bothers me. 

no one argues with me that POS warfare is anything but a long, drawn-out borefest.

no one argues with me about items like stalker's placate is broken (did they EVER fix it? maybe this last patch?)

but, i can point out glaring problems in darkfall... problems so obvious, that to deny them, you have either never played darkfall, or you're simply lying... and people will argue with me about them.

not only that, but random twits will call me a hater.  hater hater hater... sounding like some 8 year old on a school yard... and NORMALLY, that's the extent of it.  nothing to back up ANYTHING said... just "oh you're wrong, you're a hater"... just like a small child would argue.

if someone is going to tell me that 1+1=steel girder; welp, i'm done.  there's a certain point where you just can't help an individual.

be better than that.

Yeah because DF is soooo hardcore with its global banking  and naked zerg fests and simplistic combat. Hmmmmm 

Seriously Javac one day shouting go back to WoW will have no effect (if indeed it is now). In fact for most people here you should probably be saying 'go back to eve'. But alas we don't dare talk about eves intelligent complexity compared to DF silly childish nature.

But you know, I can understand why people like DF. They need PvP ... but lets not pretend the game is someone elevated above WoW. It is in many ways exactly catering to the kiddie PVP non intelligent mindset. Place it on a scale between Eve and WoW and its nearer WoW. (Sadly)

Living beathing world with consequences my ass. Thats why this game get 4 out of ten maxmimum in my book.

This is the 3rd time you've posted this in this thread.
 

Now you're just trolling.

PS.
This is exactly the sort of person you'll be playing with in DFO.  Far more then you will people with a sence of decency and respect.

wonder what will happen when someone like TTH does a review of the game and finds it lacking.........

Heres a few handy hints:

re-read the simple carebear comment. he implied he must be a "simple carebear" (getting right into the childlike darkfall mentality there) for enjoying sophisticated and available games; in other words, games that dont feel like theyre coded by blind monkeys with a deep hatred of user interfaces and animations and which have available accounts at all times, not when another 50 people have left the game.

secondly, the old wow excuse has run its course im afraid. you cant blame all of darkfalls or your own failings on world of warcraft and the evil blizzard. didnt the same gaming site give eve 8-9 out of 10? eve is about as far removed from wow as you can get. as for the silver platter thing, well didnt darkfall hand all the early guilds lots of gold on a silver platter through exploits? hmm.

4/10 is fair.

1-5 out  of 10 is what any reviewer should give it....if they go into 6-10 out of 10 then they are not being honest.

Denial is bliss !

why do you people continue to give this piece of crap a breath of fresh air every week? Let this abomination of a "game" die its deserved death. No one cares about it, no one plays it, so why bother wasting perfectly good minutes of your lives talking about it. Ive taken dumps that are more exciting than this crapulent excrement of a game... just let it die.

{mod edit}

what did eurogamer mean by 2/10?

Two - about as entertaining as 'flu

Avoid at all costs - this is less entertaining than setting fire to a ten-pound note. You'll have barely ever seen a 2/10 on EG - and for very good reason. A game this bad almost certainly won't reach our eyes, because publishers generally know better than to send games of this standard to us in the first place. In many cases these are your typical "straight to budget" titles that no sane publisher would try and release at full price, and they certainly wouldn't want us to rip them to shreds in public.

What you're facing here is a game with appalling generic visuals built around an awful design, cursed with cretinous AI, brain-frying audio and controls that feel like they've been designed to upset people or boost sales of replacement game pads. It could just be that the game is just so hideously old fashioned that someone has released the game by mistake. Who knows what goes through the minds of people who feel the need to try and sell crap? Pity them, and pity the fools that stock it and more so the morons that end up buying it without checking first.

let's color red the parts which DO describe darkfall, exactly as it was, when the reviewer was playing... shall we?

it could be a 3/10 (seen below); but honestly... the publisher that owns this game wouldn't put it on shelves?  and the old fashioned statement... heck... i'm sorry, but it deserves the 2/10

hree - not for me, thanks

Now we're getting into hair-tearing territory, where a game is so flawed in so many ways that you're quite sure that even the developer and the publisher know full well what's wrong with the game. At this point the companies involved often go into damage limitation mode and may not even supply review code to publications in the first place. This is one of the reasons you don't see a lot of games scoring low marks on EG. One of the other main reasons is that there are more than enough good games being released to spend too much time worrying about covering the dross.

A three will be an often quite punishing gaming experience. It will be the kind of game that in all likelihood you can tell is bad just by looking at it. Screenshots may well suggest otherwise, but see it running and you're immediately likely to tell why it's bad without having to get your hands dirty. The controls will almost certainly be shoddy, the playability will be all over the place, crash bugs will probably be evident, graphical glitches, camera problems, nightmarish and arbitrary difficulty hikes that inspire new swear words and quite probably some cringeworthy attempts at cool or the kind of storytelling that ought to be outlawed by an EU directive. You'll definitely want your money back, and you'll tell your gaming friends to stay the hell away, or you'll show them it just to punish or amuse them,

Sorry I actually like and play the game.

Anyone rating it higher then 5 is not honest.

I likely quit playing WoW before you did. Here is where you lie and claim you never played, never liked it, it or quit in beta...instead of simply saying it got old.

"carebear"?..is that running around with your 3 friends all decked out in gear, skills you macro'd against a wall for the past month(they changed that), killing naked new players at a Goblin camps 50 steps outside a newbie town?..ah no thats the "hardcore pvper" pffffff

Darkfall is ok..if you get in then try it you might like it despite its major flaws. If you don't get in before the upcoming MMO's like Mortal, Aion, etc are released..you didn't miss anything.

If you think this is a 7/10 then EVERY MMO besides this one you better give a 9/10...WoW a 10/10.

it's the WOW-clone mindset all over again -- blah blah this game does not duplicate WOW's mechanics and WOW's mindset of spoonfeeding the player everything on a silver platter such that even when you lose a BG or arena match, you still get points/tokens....... darkfall sucks waaa!!

 

major lolz at the guy blaming getting his mount stolen on "bad mechanics". LOL. i really hope it was me who stole your mount.

seriously guys, just go back to WOW. stop wasting your time here. there are already carebear games galore for you to play.

You have REPEATEDLY posted this exact same thing in this thread.  You REPEATEDLY keep taking a single line completely out of context. 

It's getting old, childish, and down right not fitting of a man that claims to be 36 with a PHD.
My 12 year old knows better then to behaive like this.

You are simply trolling.

Darkfall receives a 40% grade!

Pretty much what most of the beta testers said once the NDA dropped. "Darkfall is a complete failure."

There is no way that DFO merits 4/10, maybe 3/10 at most but this reviewer was probably paid off by Aventurine. Just that that they only had enough to bump the review up from 1/10 to 4/10 since they have only 6k subs!

I guess Tasos will be angry as he has to cancel his WoW sub and cut back on humus this month!

 

So you played DarkFall then ?  having it called vapoware in another thread leads to impression you didn't play.

Either you have not played it and you dont know shit about or you played it but then you should stop calling it vapor.

make up your mind.

 

On paid Beta "release" I was arrest and sent to an Iranian prison, on my first day I was ganked by a group of half naked guys with bad breath then over the course of a month repeatedly raped by a tall Greek guy naked. There was nothing to do but fight all day, the only woman I spoke to was my mother over skype telling me to get out of there find a woman and get a job.

I was locked up with about 10k fellow inmates, quarters were spartan and I spent most of my time in my cell sitting on a cold hard bench staring at a bucket of excrement.

 

You sir win the internet!

You eiter have someone review DF who is a fan or isn't a fan.  I'd rather have someone who is biased against DF review the game.  Someone who is a fan would be biased toward the game.   

Thats the arguement alot are using.  DF gets bad reviews because the reviewers are biased against it but the flip side of that is having someone biased toward the game review it.   I'm not gonna place much faith in a slobbering review made a biased fan of DF or the genre it represents.

Sure you can have someone biased for the game give a fair review just as someone who is biased against the game can give a fair review.  It works both ways.

If someone biased against DF gives a great review and a decent score, maybe a high score....thats says alot more than a high score from someone biased for the game.

You are so right in this post and you are pressing exactly on the right point. We darkfall players, are not trying to say the game is 8 or 9/10. It never was and it never will be, but the game has a certain quality that I have been looking for, for a long time. It's fun its manic, and crazy PvPwise. If you want to play Darkfall, play it for the right reasons.

Then there is the FACT that not everyone agrees on everything,so for every site you find that agrees,you can find many that don't.

What i have seen is actual BS posting for the most part,people LOOKING for the negative of DF,instead of just looking at the game for what it does .I don't ever remember TAOS saying his game was ground breaking,or that they have the best graphics around or they have the best animations around.

I do not get all wound up on DF,because i knew from the beginning what this game was about and what is had to offer and it was nothing that appealed to me.So in essence i could find a ton to complain about,but it is a game that is not designed to be fun for me,so i would be biased in my opinions.

As an outsider looking at DF,i really don't see the fuss ,as IMO there is no such thing as a good PVP game anywhere in the RPG genre,as it DOES NOT belong in the RPG genre.PVP is something that SHOULD be relegated to the FPS genre,that is why it has so much drama and fails on so many fronts,and it DOES fail and not just in DF,but every RPG game that tries to use it.

 

Pardon me?
If the EG review was a lie, then why did this review point out the exact same things?

 

 

That was already addressed,because the reviewer used other ACTUAL reviewers to fake his own review.It is VERY easy to do,and i bet has been done before this Zitron guy.

Having played it, its crap, Half The time I was macroing everything, harvesting, weapons skills, spells etc. When I wasn't playing I swam. I didn't just macro I was there for most of the Huge sieges(laggy as hell), random ganks, some end game PVE for full plate etc. It was fun for the thrill and rush of risk vs reward, but it is a crap game that did fail to deliver. The game is getting into a better shape but it still sucks. Why play it if  its so bad? its the only one of its kind. Hopefully MO will actually deliver.  DF worst PR EVER!

Fanbois comments are getting shallower by the day.

Love how the same issues are always discussed on the forums, reviewed by players , reviewed by gaming sites, but according to the DF fanbois here, it's all lies and myths. Talk about being blind!

Can't wait for the next 'lying' review in this worldwide conspiracy against DF and Aventurine.
