In all honesty, give it a few days. It all seems to be a bit of a mess at the moment. Wait until the servers are up, stable, and they begin letting more people in.

I may be wrong but I thought it was an landslide victory for the Trolls. Not launching on the promised date ... server crashes ... some pre-orders still not in ... official forums down ... I won't go on because this is probably enough to get me a nice juicy Troll label.

Basically what happened is you had an indie dev team made of oldschool gamers who decided to make one hell of a game, and they made it very well.

However...they are borderline retarded when it came to billing, launching, and predicting what the load was going to be like on release...and now we have our current situation.

Theyll fix it, the game will be fun as hell, its just unfortunate that they are mmo company #1423 that had a bad launch.

Quite a good summary. The problem is that they are headed by an egomaniac who has royally screwed things up, painting the whole development in a bad light. Get rid of Tasos and DF will flourish.

Dude you might wanna go back to bed.

I like how these self-proclaimed trolls are changing the story.  First it was Darkfall is vaporware and isn't real and we all got our money stolen.  Then once they have problems with launch, you simply say "we told you they were going to have a bad launch."  Newsflash, no you fucking didn't. 

Says the guy who joined today. Have fun trawling through the last 8 years of Troll posts did you? People have been saying this game would have a bad launch ever since it was announced.

It shows you the true nature of trolls. Look at them froath at the mouth because of a problematic launch. I wonder if these simple minded trolls where there when WOW launched and had tons of issues saying "SEE I TOLD YOU SO PAY ME MY 100 BUCKS BECAUSE THIS GAME FAILED AND THEY WILL NEVER FIX IT!!!"

Trolls are just desperate and cling to anything they can... it's obvious

I wasn't around for the launch of WoW but I would be very surprised if it was anything like this. If anyone was around for it, please feel free to fill me in on the similarities.

Because it's hugely entertaining. It's like an internet soap opera but more unbelievable.

lol Downtoearth is no where to be seen. Fanbois have switched to defcon 3.

He is posting. His new spin seems to be that this is all perfectly acceptable and that somehow he has been right all along. Gotta love Fanboy logic. Go figure.

He's already donated it to Aventurine to fund their upgrade to Windows 3.11

And that wasn't long enough to get a PK?

Carebear.

I don't think anyone can honestly describe this launch as anything but a disaster. The important thing is whether Tasos and co. can ride the storm.

I'm actually starting to feel sorry for Aventurine now. This whole debacle is of Tasos' making, and all the poor sods that make up the development team are having to pay for his incompetent PR. They need to have a few days off in my honest opinion. To hell with pre-orders and all that crap, the damage has been done, they can sort out refunds or whatever at a later date. They're human after all.

Haha.

Yeah, I have my doubts about the company, however I hope they deliver a product that can endure. Lord knows we need some damn diversity in the MMO market.

Yes we do, but this is not the way to go about it. They had their chance. Let the next developer in line have a shot and learn from Aventurines mistakes.

FAKE!!!

there are no nameplates in DF

And they're wearing clothes. Everyone knows you don't equip armour in DF.

It's just the overspill from the official forums.

Oh boy they're all coming out the woodwork now.

DF comparable to a MUD. Just lol.

Great community.

DF has one of the worst communities in the history of gaming. You just need to read the Fanboys' posts for a few minutes to realise this. You can tell them apart by their overuse of phrases such as: "Carebear", "Go back to WoW" and "DF isn't for you".
