What's the source of the client being 100% C++? I don't see it in the IRC chat.

I've been looking at Darkfall for a long time.  It's got a really good idea, but theres little information they give us (The public).  Honestly, I didn't even expect to get it this far, I remember when they said they officially cancelled the project due to funds, then about a year ago I saw they were really working hard with a new team and everything.   I don't really care how long it takes, I have patience, especially with spore and WAR coming out this fall, I really don't mind if they wait another year to perfect the game.  All I want is a game that is finished, not a beta release (AOC).   I mean really, who actually demands this game to be released before its finished?  I never understood in some of these games releasing an unfinished game.  I've heard because they don't want to doubt their fans, but thats just plain dishonesty right there, instead of dissapointing them for a few more months, you kill their fun when its released.

yeah it doesn't say explicitly, i know i have read it somewhere though, i just can't yet place the reference. stands to reason, i sure as hell wouldn't use java on a 3d game client either.

Overview:
Aventurine S.A. is looking for a senior game logic programmer for our highly anticipated MMORPG Darkfall Online.(www.darkfallonline.com)
The position requires you to implement gameplay features and system features in Java.
--------

Gameplay features in Java?  That would mean their client is using Java for gameplay.

The developers have been saying things will happen soon since August 2001, and very few of them actually did, but their community was willing to wait.

And now after 8 years of saying things will happen soon, they are still saying things will happen soon, and so far very few of them actually have, but yet they still have a community willing to wait.

If this routine has not changed in over 8 years I very much doubt it will in a month, simply all that will happen is the current members of the community who are no longer willing to wait will be replaced by new community members who are willing to wait.

This process has continued for 8 years and I see no reason why it wont simply continue indefinitely, multiple official / unofficial beta and release dates have come and gone as well as numerous other “promises” over the last 8 years.

And yet new community members, after 8 years of this, who replace those who are no longer willing to wait, are still willing wait for things to happen "soon" along with the allready existing community members who are still willing to wait.

All it requires is ignorance , naiveté and faith to perpetuate the cycle.

The only thing that can finally end this is for the things that have been perpetually about to happen soon for the last 8 years, like Beta, launch and new videos etc. to actually finally start happening "soon" i.e. in the next 5 months, or for Darkfall to be canceled.

Otherwise, 2008 along with all the things that were going to happen soon will come and go, along with the current members of the community who are no longer willing to wait, and a new community members and those still willing to wait will be getting excited all over again about the same things that might be happening sometime soon in 2009.

 

Spot on!

This game will never be released.

DF is a great scam.

So no "sexy time". Just more of Tasos lies.

Lets face it, MMOs today are turning into single player console games with a chat box included.

Given the amount of time theyve drug this project out, everything theyve claimed to have completed would be out of date.

All gameplay is implemented on the server genius.... the client just displays stuff and takes user input.

So why are you following this game again? Btw Tasos doesn't lie, you guys just read what you what to read, not what's actually said.

whether it's released or not, doesn't change what languages it's written in.
