Seriously OP, our question still stand, why DF is so popular for you? If you could reply this without a wall of text, i would be glad to read it because i bet no one read the whole thing. Played DF trial for 2 weeks none stop. Check out my pvp video during trial.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJnU_JEqKRM |

Now I could have sworn that on more then one post. I've heard you DF fans comment on WoW numbers. Saying they don't mean anything. Kind of ironic that you bring up DF in a numbers discussion. Oh right I forgot how often you guys like to flip flop. DF forums should be an MMO. They are more then worth 14.99 a month for their pure entertainment value. I guess the difference between WoW vs Darkfall popularity wise is this. WoW has millions of players spread over thousands of servers. Within these servers they hold a small population which is made even smaller with instancing. Darkfall on the other hand has one server for EU and one for NA. Both of which boast large populations which far surpass a WoW server. Darkfall in this case is clearly superior.
Oh come now Ruyn. While I'll respect most people's opinions on most matters, especially when they can refrain from the "Oh yeah? Well, you're a doody-head TIMES A MILLION!!!" and "Oh yeah? Well, my dad can beat up your dad!!" nonsense. Heck, I typically let most exaggerated posts go by. But come on, your highlighted statement above is way out there. I am pretty certain that even on a good night(read prime-time) on the N.A. server, that the Darkfall numbers don't match that of the more popular WoW servers.

Actually i did or i do consider to give it a try.Since it's so hard to find a good mmo these days,i am even downloading and going to reinstall DAOC right now(By the way,fallen earth is a peice of shit,and yes i tried it.)But the major problems which keep pushing me away form this game are those fanboys keep lying.I just cant force myself to play a game with lairs like Cecropia,Ruyn or Einstein-DF.They really freak me out. |

Originally posted by Wizardry As soon as i see PVP it's not for me. One thing for sure is that DF is not AV's game,they merely copy and pasted the original list of game features from years ago.These guys just got a cheap game and figured to cash in on it,
Dang, I only wish they copy the older games, but I can assure you they didn't. That's why some of us fanbois often explode into nerdrage. We think AV fucked up a good game. Still, it's the only thing we have, so we have to stay. |

In game, plenty of you dont even complete the goblin location to go on. Most of you whine because you get gank often, but there are load of goblin locations if you search. One near the tower watch, one a bit further, one way more further and on and on. After 1 or 2 days, you should get the time to be strong enough to fight other stuff then goblins, but you guys just give up instead of trying to find whats next. There are a lot of you ppl who cant handle full loot open world pvp so you quit and since you have no other mmorpg in mind to try out, you come here and bash darkfall(You didnt do it, but your kind do) In game, we are like the best communoty and the worst. Meaning that a lot of us are just annoying ppl, lot of trash talking, lot of noobs killing, but much of us are helpful in game and most of us will invite ppl in to a group to help each others. Join a clan that fit you well and you will enjoy DF really fast. Dont think about doing load of quests because darkfall is not about that. Think about pvp only. All you do have to be a step forward to be better to pvp. If you rarararara-quite at goblin because you get gank often, dont even bother to retry playing teal you get higher skills because once you are there, getting ganked will make you be even more frustrating since you will star to lose real stuff. Newb locations are the only place where banks are near where you fight and capitals are the only place with tower watch, you rage quitters dont even use them wisely. So you rage quit when you die because you forgot to put your stuff in bank. Played DF trial for 2 weeks none stop. Check out my pvp video during trial.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJnU_JEqKRM |

I don't want to appear bigger then i am ...and i want to be the last who would point to cecropia's reply and totally agree with it.....ehem..well.. It was me and myself pointing about my absence in that list and leading you mind in to adding me to that list .. ;) but enough of the "funny because its true" stuff.. Let the popularity of DF take over topic again :D

So by your logic. Eve-Online is the God of God's as far as MMO's are concerned, no? Eve-Online has 1 server. Eve-Online supports more people on that one server then DF's two servers put together. (At least from what I've read on CCP's setup) Yes. Even more so when they introduce Dust 514 |

Oh come now Ruyn. While I'll respect most people's opinions on most matters, especially when they can refrain from the "Oh yeah? Well, you're a doody-head TIMES A MILLION!!!" and "Oh yeah? Well, my dad can beat up your dad!!" nonsense. Heck, I typically let most exaggerated posts go by. But come on, your highlighted statement above is way out there. I am pretty certain that even on a good night(read prime-time) on the N.A. server, that the Darkfall numbers don't match that of the more popular WoW servers.
I mean really... How is that an exaggeration? Darkfall by it's very nature facilitates open world pvp right to it's very core. WoW encourages a small number of people into a small room together. It really is a clusterfuck beyond imagining. I'd venture to say its easier finding 64 players in a counterstrike match than WoW (and just as rewarding, and much cheaper). The good news is I think a lot more people are starting to reject over-instancing in MMO's and starting to question certain developer's use (or misuse) of the first M in MMORPG. Massive. WoW is not massive. Sure it's massive from an investor stand-point, but certainly not from a player standpoint. I stand by my opinion that Darkfall has more people on its server than a WoW server by a large percentage. Especially when you take into consideration the instancing and how the game facilitates player interaction. Bold statements to be sure, but true.

WoW is massive in player base and game world. Only someone who is completely blind or in denial wouldn't be able to see that. Darkfall has around 15k subs and the odds of all those people being on at one time is a very slim chance. WoW servers peak at around 5k and thats with the older ones from launch. Pretty sure they have been upgraded so who knows how much they hold now but come on man please don't be that raving fan boy that says whatever pops into their heads to defend a game. I respect the fact you like playing darkfall just don't make of lies trying to defend it. All this does is make it look less appealing. |

I don't even play it anymore, although I plan on picking it back up again after the expansion and transfers. I'm just defending it from the likes of you and the blind WoW trolls who keep trying to bring down the rest of the genre. You totally missed the point of my post. WoW's playerbase is bigger, but not on a server to server basis, especially when you consider instancing. And like I said, WoW's playerbase being bigger means nothing to us, the player, playing on the same server with other people. |
