almost 100% growth in playtime according to XFire in a single month.

200 users played by day that means theyr nothing more then fanbots trying to hype the game or they never go offline and just do a afk till something happends like all the retards on eq2 this means nothing

 Silkroad is in the top10... that's what happens when bots start using Xfire.

(my objective here is not to discredit Darkfall, but to discredit Xfire, that can be manipulated in SO many ways)

They released a NA server, they got a decent number of NA players who use xfire.

However, their handling of NA players on EU has lowered that curve significantly. Theres about 1000 of us who are stuck on EU who are rather pissed off AV isnt letting us play.

When you start quoting percentages you are just cooking the books. Anyone with a background in basic statistical analysis knows that.

If I went from one player to 2 players I would have a 100% increase. BFD that is still a lose - lose situation.

How about some actual subscription numbers? Actual paying players not the number in guilds that never get dropped, etc.

Actual verifiable hard numbers. With all you slavering sycophants on here I am sure that one of you lap lickers can get the actual numbers from your man lover Tasos and the "logs to back it up" LOL.

NA is a brand new server.    To allow transfers from the start would have been rediculous for any one new playing DFO.  You will get to transfer after 90-days, or you could have cancelled and used the monthly fee you saved to start in NA on day 1; choice was yours.   You are not "stuck" on EU, just delayed in moving until the NA server has a chance to catch up to you for when and if you arrive.

Of course there are a lot of players that got extremely high skills in EU by doing nothing but using their no drop starter weapon and shooting in the air.   Now that's fixed, I'm sure we have our share of unhappy gamers that can't immediately use their unearned skills on NA yet.

Funny how people will use xfire if it meets their agenda but dismiss it the rest of the time. i wonder who in this thread has done that before. Maybe the op...maybe

Gotta love your posts.

Paragraph 1 = You could have paid twice for the game and played on NA 1 from the start.

Paragraph 2 = Everyone that doesn't want to pay twice has ill gotten skills anyways.

This fan to english translation brought to you by Spishak!

Actually china I am stuck. I had canceled my EU account waiting on NA release. We were told by AV prior to launch that

"We’re allowing players from N. America to participate in the European release due to this fact. Of course we’ll make some allowances for these players if they would like to move to the US server when it launches."

When asked for clarification, they refused to respond. We were told by mods in IRC that we would be taken care of. That last sentence though is very damning. "if they would like to move to the us server when it launches" Not three months later...

I dont want my character moved, I was perfectly happy starting over from scratch. In fact pretty much everyone I played with was under that understanding, and perfectly fine with it. My issue, is having to wait 90 days to play our version, and then on top of that being charged a fee to do so.

Its double charging your customers, and bad business...and its costing them thousands of subscribers.

193 players lol

 I'm not a darkfall player, nor do I support the game.

However. When WoW was first released in the US, I had to pay 70 Euroes to play it. This is because I had to import a US copy of the game and Irish customs tacked on like 20-30 euro in some kind of wierd import tax onto the box. A few months later the game was released in Europe. There were not only no character transfers, there wasn't even the possiblity of one down the line in the near or far future. I had to chose to either play on the US servers or buy a new copy.

In the end, due to time zones, IRL friends and other factors, I bought a new copy to play on the EU servers.

I'm not saying the Darkfall devs are golden, but on this issue, it seems unfair that they are being singled out for something that SEEMS to be an industry standard. You can complain that this should change, throughout the industry, but don't blame darkfall like it's some new kind of scam they just came up with.

 It's funny. My xfire doesn't even recognize darkfall. Maybe I need to have it search for games again.

EDIT:

I had to manually tell it where to look for darkfall.

But at no point in time did Blizzard ever say you would be allowed to transfer or taken care of...thats the glaring difference. If we had been told up front no transfers would be allowed, that would be a completely different thing. We were specifically told we would be granted allowances.

Hmm i think i may have to try this game out.

 they are allowing transfers, just not on day one? I can understand the arguement that perhaps they shouldn't charge for these. But I do believe that Blizzard charge for their transfers.

All this said, I agree that DF's PR team sucks big time.

Most of us dont want transfers, we simply want a empty new NA account.

I started a thread here about this, so as not to further derail this thread.

My apologies to the op

Seeing how DF used to be #50 just this march(now its only #133), its ... what, a 38% drop? but wait, you aren't counting the decreases, only increases. So yeah, in that case DF always increases its numbers.
