I would just like to say that a game who solves security problems with bots, by making their own bot, is just plain sad. (I have not had time to read the entire thread.)

 

Whats sad about it?  Its not a cheat or a hack, its a part of the game.  Do you also feel its sad the EvE online allows you to train skills without logging in for a month?

 I think the people that are against this just wanted to make their own bot and have the advantage.  Now you are pissed that everyone can do it and your advantage is gone.

Yes, I'm pissed, because now almost everyone will bot, and level/items will not count ONE bit on skill, but rather, on the time you can have your computer running. And I like to see my advancements coming from hard work, not by sleeping with the bot on, and it's my opinion that in a game that implents their own bot, everyone is going to use it, and that is not a game for me. But if you enjoy it, go ahead.

Wasn't it a pain to make all those topics? O.o

Yes, took me about 7 hours total (including revision for the new version)

It's really great, keep working :).

Thanks for the the help, guys.

Since I see guys are throwing gold around then it means there's money to be made. One of the things I didnt like back then was you didn't make any real money on quests as some games do. This is one thing SWG had that everyone loved, missions paid good money. I hope they've changed things around so you actually make money on quests and loot drops.

Yeah, once you get to Outland, gold will not be a problem. You can loot trash and sell it for lots, and the quests award much as well.

Shadowbane, if you don't mind bad graphics.

Can it be that you have reinstalled the game, and now use the US version when you should use the EU version, or vice versa?

Wouldn't that say that his account doesn't exist, and not that it's out of time?

Well, until now, they could've taken fans for granted, but now Mortal Online has released some info, and granted, it is a long way from release, but at least it means some concurrance for Aventurine. Well, they can still take fans for granted, but not to the same extent, because if they overdo it, we got at least one other game to choose from.

I am curious to know, what makes Mortal Online better then Darkfall? I'm not taking any side here, but clearly I feel the DFO features promise more, and as long as Mortal Online is in development there's always a chance it won't release. Why do people trust them instead of Aventurine?

 

Experience, reliability, dependability and the fact they are a publically traded company instead of Aventurine's long history of broken promises of betas, cancellations, GUILD beta tests, cancellations, etc.  Aventurine's track record is a mine field of smoke, mirrors, and deception.

 

From what I understand Mortal Online is being made by Starvault, which is a newly started Swedish company, so how would you know if they are good or bad?

Not that I'm taking sides here but....

 

 

Darkfall has been out in the public Eye since 2002 and has had some failed Beta launches and a lack of information about the game itself [it has had some screenshots and videos but not much else]. In the past Adventurine has had problems getting a publisher till recently. The Devs have put out regular dev blogs that unfortunately contain very Little truly new information about the game itself. Over time its reputation has been damaged and it looks like a tired old entity due to the years its been in the public eye

 

Mortal online has JUST been officially announced, and like any new game that's announced will have higher expectations . It doesnt yet have ANY screenshots and only one movie so far but right now it has no multiple failed betas like Darkfall and it does have a interesting range of features to it that does compete at some level with what Darkfall is promising.

 

So basically i guess the reason those people are getting more exited over Mortal Online rather than Darkfall is because its new its reputation is untarnished and although it doesnt have the overwhelming amount of features Darkfall has it is nether-less close in some aspect to what Darfall offers and its a sandbox game as well [i have to say i like how your characters chosen god affects how you do stuff and how the more people worship that god the more powerful that effect on your character gets].

 

In the end tho isn't it a good thing that more 'Innovative' and daring game ideas like Darkfall are coming out?

Yes, it is, I love that more sandbox games are coming out, and that small gaming companies take chances. Just found it a bit strange that two days after the first information about Mortal Online, people start coming with ''Darkfall is domed forever'' threads :p. When in fact, MO is just like DFO, a video and a forum, just that DFO has been around longer. But I understand what you mean, although I am hopeful that DFO will come out, and if it doesn't, too bad.

I think itsa good thing thay uses the AI and pro testers. If they would take amateur beta testers those would be 90% WoW players and not much of that feedback would be of any use for the DF bevelopers.

We see here, and on the official DF forum that everyday some people that dont understand sandbox MMOs want to change it into a linear gameplay without playerfreedom.  So its better the 10% of real sandbox players to the playertesting later : )

I just hope that they are many enough.

Never started waiting!  If it makes a release, excellent I'll play it!  Until then there are plenty of other games to play and forgo a so-called-wait! 

Pretty much like me, although, this is the first time, I don't feel the urge to play any of the MMORPGs out there right now, and that's troubling :p. But FPS's are great as well.

To ''stop waiting'' for a game seems really weird to me, it's not like my entire life is revolving around waiting for Darkfall. So in a sense, I will never stop waiting. I just live my life, and I'll play the first good sandbox game when that comes out, if it's Mortal Online or Darkfall doesn't really concern me much. Just damned tired of point N' click.

Regardless of the response to the OP, who here wouldn't rush immeadiately to sign up for a PvP stress test if it was announced for Darkfall?

I'd do it out of simple curiosity.

As would most of the unbelievers and bashers, and everyone who has already said this game is never going to release.

I haven't have time to read the full topic, but just because you join another page, it doesn't mean you're jumping ship, most people follow more then one game at a time <.<'.

They have developer updates every two weeks. I don't see why you think tomorrow's update will be so 'make-or-break'.

you wouldn't

Because you didn't explain your reasoning?

The reason is very simple and obvious.

 

They got bitch slapped upside the head a few days ago on the very same site that hosts their dev journals. You would think that ANYONE who has even the slightest commen sense would make damn sure that their next journal would be as quality as it can be and filled with things like videos of gameplay and good info... otherwise they just look like suckers with  nothing to show... and it makes the bitch slapping look valid and ruins them publically.

I wouldn't be surprised if they don't even do anymore journals after that..

Are you referring to the AoC fanboi?

Yes that is what he is talking about.  Did you really need him to spell it out for you?

Yes, because I was unsure if something else had happened on War Cry. I don't know why Aventurine would care about that guy.

Don't get me wrong, I really want this game to be released and I'm something of a fanboy myself. But now I'd like you to backup your statements and post the pictures of 30 Devs, and I would like to know why the 05 beta was stopped.

Post your screenshots downtoearth or stop fucking lying about Darkfall

Here you go. Thought I'd do it myself.

 

Thanks.
