No gold spammers. I just tried Aion and within the first 60 seconds ingame I saw 30 lines of gold seller spam. It was 100x worse than WAR was. Know thy enemy. At least its a pile of crap as other EQ clones out there are. Darkfall > EQ clones PS - I didnt pay for it. Used a friends account. Not worth paying for. The definition of insanity: doing the same thing over and over expecting different results. When will developers (and players) become sane? Now go eat some grass like everyone else. |

Only good thing about Darkfall is that it had show other devs what NOT to do if they want subscribers in their games :) |

Another good thing other developers can learn from Aventurine is how to design the world and not just spam a random mediocre or cartoonish environment for their customers. But could be their customers have mediocre needs and deserve that :) -----MY-TERMS-OF-USE-------------------------------------------------- "There was suppression of speech and all kinds of things between disturbing and fascistic."

You only find gold sellers in games with a decent population. They actually need someone to sell their gold to. With only a few hundred ppl on at any given time, I guess its not even worth a gold sellers time. |

Seriously, DF is just not a game for goldfarmers/spammers. As many complains about DF that its to harsh. Same rule is applyed on farmers. They dont get special treatment as in other MMOs. |

Drop it Frank Daarco is the most informed poster on these boards, he knows what hes talking about. You on the other hand should inform yourself properly of the greatness of Darkfall's PK guilds. |

It is the trolls and game haters that take DarthRaiden's posts seriously. Its their own personal fault for doing that. |

Anyway, I'm just curious about the "special treatment" that the gold sellers/spammers/farmers etc., receive in other MMOs. DarkFall FAQ - Read then Question with Boldness |

They can't be killed. That's their special treatment. You can buy gold in Darkfall. You just don't get spammed to hell. Darkfall was hyped like crazy but even at launch there were no spammers. I guess they died to quickly to the hands of other players. Player justice 4TW. The definition of insanity: doing the same thing over and over expecting different results.

I saw some goldselling going on when I played, but it quickly died out. Frankly, with so many titles around to have a profit from, why would the RMT industry waste time with DFO? They go where there are enough players to pay for their activities. After all, it's a business, for them. Since only a minority is stupid enough to buy gold/powerlevelling, the demand in DFO must be tiny indeed. And, yes, from a certain point of view, it's a good thing. Shame it harbors from a terrible thing (lack of players). |

Nah you can buy gold on darkfall, it's just INSANELY overpriced. (like $35 for 1000 gold (which is the equivalent of about 30g in wow)) Anyway, from what I've heard, when people buy gold from the farmers in that game, the farmers come to the trade spot with a group of like 20 allies in case you decide to fight them. |

I keep hearing this shit about lack of players... Agon is a huge world, and although NA-1 may not have 10,000 people yet, there is a good enough amount for a gold market. The fact is that it's a pain in the ass to farm gold in this game. Gold farmers have it easy in other games because not just anybody can kill them at anytime and take all their loot. I personally would never buy gold in Darkfall as it's against the rules to sell in game gold.. so it must be against the rules to buy it as well? |

First of all, What you people do not understand is darkfall is a very opened up game to HACKS galore.
Do you honestly think someone who can make a hack to fly and teleport and shoot through walls can't hack to create or copy gold into millions?
Furthermore, Every gold farmer is a criminal/cheat who has no problem making 100's of accounts and buying the game 100's of times.
Gold farmers simply do not hit darkfall for subcription numbers and no other reason. There is no market in darkfall, Why would I a farmer go to a double server game with maybe 1000 people on a server at a time to waste money on multiple accounts where only less tahn 1% of those thousand buy gold. Gold is so far less important in darkfall than it is in lets say Aion where gear is king just like WoW.
Trust me I have played darkfall for 5 months after launch. If darkfall had mass subscriptions and many servers it would be worst than Aion. Darkfall can never get that big of a game because of its easy to hack script. Again trust me, gold would be hacked to billions, sold everywhere for dirt cheep and the whole game would be royally dead.

I would make 5k-10k an hour farming higher level earth elementals.

Just google Darkfall Gold. Just because you don't have gold spammers, doesn't mean the sellers aren't there. They may not be there in mass quantities due to lower numbers of players, but there are a few. I have seen prices ranging from 29 cents to $2, you could probably find it for more or less, but I am not delving that far into researching it. Besides, if I were a gold seller in an open pvp environment, I definitely would not spam. All that does is let others know you are there and put a target on your back, making future sales difficult. In this kind of game, it would be better to do your business in secret. DFO's poo stinks just like any other game, the sellers are just more clandestine. |

Exactly why I said that 35$ for 1000 gold is insanely overpriced. |

And that's what makes open PVP games superior to themeparks....we decide wtf is going on in the gameworld... even more than say a sandbox like EVE which has empire space.... |
