You're dead to us Zaxx, turn in your vapor troll badge before sunday. It's sad that a video with zero game elements got your panties wet, sad indeed.

zero game elements.  i know you like to troll this forum but at least do it with some talent.  that video clearly showed some game elements.
it is reassuring to see you guys scramble like you are though.

Oh do tell what game elements were there?
I saw a Vista cursor, was that a game element?
I saw a screen of something flash at one point, was that a game element?
I saw a screen for crafting for one millisecond, was that a game element?
The point is all of those things could have been static graphics and have no functionality at all, one wonders since they showed them for split seconds and nothing more than that.
All I saw was animation, animation that 3d modeling college students can produce in Maya or 3dMax.

It's nice to know that MMORPG.com has such fine correspondents. We should all be so lucky as to have such fine trolls, um I mean correspondents, for all the forums.

On a roll, let's use your tactic once on the other side of the foot.

It's nice to know that MMORPG.com has such fine members. We should all be so lucky to have such fine conservationists that would take their time to post intelligent points and arguments instead of attacking a person's credibility or saying go back to WoW etc, um I mean people, for all the forums.

I invited you fanbois to prove me wrong, go ahead do it, prove me wrong that the video was not just an animation. You can't do that can you. Stop attacking me and what I do in my spare time and start arguing your points. I know at least half of you were raised better than that.
 

sorry but the burden of proof is on your end their sweetheart.

just like me saying...hey troll, err i mean oh mighty correspondant.....prove to me you arent a robot alien.  oh you posted a picture of you in real life holding up a sign responding to this thread? pssh clearly could be photoshopped.  and dont bother attacking my analogy, you are just wrong.  grow up.

Darkfall looks incredible. It's nice to finally see another sandbox come out that has tons of content, can't wait to get in and try it out.

I know man..you, me, and so many others are drooling right now that this genre may actually offer us something original and exciting again.  gl getting into beta.

hell, I hate Lineage 2 and I agree with Gameloading. In addition graphics isnt everything. Wait until you guys play it. Its just bad all around

You're kind of late. It seems like I ended the argument between the graphics of those two games.

 

if you ended the argument, then you would realize you are falling for something that isn't real and if it is real, then they are laughing you all the way to the bank.

 

I use to think you were one of the few reasonable people on these forums, I guess I was wrong.  Which leaves me to wonder who else is hiding behind so thin a veil. . .  Curious how you would go to such a low level in assaulting not only a game, but those that appreciate it.

I'm more of the Hero's Journey sort, as opposed to the Darkfall sort, but I do think Darkfall has some nice artwork to help make up for some of the graphical downfalls.  Although those cannon blasts are rightfully ridiculed.

The graphics don't seem as bad to me as a lot of people make them out to be, but it all boils down to personal taste.  I do hope Darkfall releases for you guys, and that it's everything you are expecting it to be. 

Good luck, and good gaming.

 

good lord...enigma i think it is time to just bow out, he just said what we all are thinking.

and yes, the graphics are not omg amazing, but they are fine and you (enigma) have no grounds to try and convince the fans of this game that they shouldnt be happy.  if you dont like it, fine say that, but dont tell the fans that we shouldnt be happy.  grow up.

yea seriously...who does this guy think he is.

ontop of that, his points are just wrong.  not in my opinion, but factually wrong.

way to represent the site...sorry lotro isnt keeping your attention enough so you have to troll here.

Sometimes you come up with a concept, and it's brilliant. But by the time you can implement it, time has marched on, things have changed, and your brilliant concept isn't a big deal anymore.

I'm just saying that if DF had released back in 2003 or 2004 it would have made quite a splash. But now, there are simply dozens of MMORPGs releasing, or scheduled to release. And more PvP is on the horizon as well, including Warhammer.

if they had released in 2003, it would not have made a splash at all, it would have tanked.  the developers did something us players wish companies would do more often...own up that the game was in terrible shape and delayed the release (in DF's case, started over).

they took pride in their product and when it releases, it will be their best effort.

Well hopefully the world will be large enough (without instant teleports) that you will never have to bump into the major Guilds if thats what you want. You will basically miss out on the richest resource areas where they will all be flocking leaving you to do your thing in quieter but less abundant areas. And if you don't get the point of this system maybe this isn't the game for you.

it will be, which is one of the reasons i cant wait for this game.

look how big the world of EVE is, you can avoid the areas where the largest uber guilds hang out.

there is 0 chance that a guild will be able to take over an entire server, the world is simply too big

Indeed, the little lotro carebears are still struggeling with the consept of full loot or female dwarfs.

yep...there will always be people afraid of this game because they cant fathom its features...let them gloat.  the fans discuss their game here, the trolls discredit it thinking their time spent is going to ruin the game or something.
 

at the end of the day, barely anyone looks at this forum, maybe 2% of the community that would play or know about it at all.  So they are wasting their time, while we attempt to share our common interest and look forward to having fun.

Apoligize because they saw a video? Why don't you just wait until beta starts to see what the reactions are? And then make this thread... if it actually proves to be decent.

ill assume you are new to the df forum...because up until yesterday many people were insulting the fans saying we will never see a video and we were all morons being lied to. and how can there be a video when there is no game at all.

so yea, many have apologized, many lack the character to do so...but we get the last laugh...a great game

ugh fine....since "very early on"...jeeze nit...

yep, even from day 1 the devs have described the style of combat as being some kind of cross between oblivion and mount and blade.

cant wait =)

Reading this thread makes me realize how lucky I am in my current relationship.  That isn't meant as a brag as much as it is a thank you for bringing the topic up.

My gf is not a huge gamer, but she is definitely into them and understands that I enjoy a good MMO (like the op said, when a good one is out...im currently MMO-less).  She will be the first one to accept an open challenge to play some mario tennis or some of the more old school stuff, and enjoys some pc titles, just not MMOs.

Been together a little over a year now and she is extremely supportive of anything i do, including moving to the other side of the country to pursue a great career opportunity.  I give her the same respect with her hobbies and in other aspects of life, so things work out very nicely. 

I had a previous relationship of about 2 1/2 years though that ended in disaster because of a difference of opinion about gaming.  Though i later found out that she was not for me for other reasons, and that gaming actually saved me from making a huge life mistake with her.  And i never would have met my current gf =)

The good points have already been made in the thread, but i just wanted to share my situation.  Treat them with respect and don't be overly aggresive with your defense of your hobby.  If they are truly in love with you and are serious about a relationship, they will at least be open to the idea of not getting in the way of something you enjoy, as long as you keep it under control and always put her first.

I consider myself extremely lucky to be in the situation i am in after reading this thread, so i guess my other advice would be to step back and take a look at your relationship and if your gf/wife/bf/husband is at least willing to compromise in some way about your hobby then you should consider yourself lucky and take that as a good sign that he/she really cares about you.  

If someone says, its the game or me, then they may not be the one for you as long as your gaming habits are under control and its not an addiction.  If they really cared they wouldnt make you give up something that makes you happy. 

But this shouldnt be confused with someone asking you to tone it down or compromise a bit (sometimes it may be the wake up call you need to tone down your in game life and focus on rl).   And you should never get mad at your significant other for wanting you to tone it down.  Say if she wants to compromise and say ill give you your gaming time with no complaints as long as you take me out to a movie/dinner every friday night....but friday night is your guilds raiding night....take the compromise and dont think twice about it.

this turned into an unorganized rant, but hopefully my points are made somewhere in there.  good topic op.  oh and for what its worth im 23.
