LOL

How does this happen?

Perpetuum (0%, 5 Votes)

EarthRise (1%, 0 Votes)

wut? So I guess not voting gives you a better percentage?

NEWS FLASH! A bank was robbed the other day and a man opened fire on the customers being held hostage. One customer zig-zag sprinted until he found cover. When questioned later he explained that he was a hardcore Darkfall Online player and knew just what to do.

The site is run by a Mortal Online fan trying to hype the game...

Starvault's reponse to criticism related to having a handful of players as the official "test" team for a supposed MMO: "We've just have another 10ish folk kind enough to voulenteer added tot the test team" (SIC) This explains much about the state of the game :-)

I think it's an algorithm that corrects rounding errors. If you round percentages to whole numbers, it might happen that you get more or less than 100% in total.

  • Eve Online (50%, 771 Votes)
  • Mortal Online (20%, 317 Votes)
  • Darkfall (20%, 316 Votes)
  • Perpetuum (3%, 51 Votes)
  • Xsyon (3%, 43 Votes)
  • Star Wars Galaxies (1%, 23 Votes)
  • Wurm Online (1%, 14 Votes)
  • Other: Leave a comment (1%, 11 Votes)
  • A Tale in the Desert (0%, 5 Votes)
  • Ryzom (0%, 4 Votes)
  • EarthRise (1%, 0 Votes)
It would only be 99% if earthrise had 0%. So the algorithm picks a random (?) number and adds 1, so the total is 100%.

Seriously this does not matter at all. Some random site doing some random pool. Nothing to see here move along.

 

 

Not surprising at EvE winning. Most complete, biggest and closest to beign 'big' title out of all other games, even though it is very specific game and has it's own fair share of problems.

 

Still all other sandbox or sandboxy games are unfortunatelly small indie projects, that always will be underfunded and will never reach their promised potential.

 

Sad times for mmorpg sandboxes :(

 

/end of rant from ex-sandbox mmorpg player, currently on temporary (hopefully) mmorpg retirement

 To an MO fan.. just not finishing last is a victory.

Well the deffininition of a sandbox is debatable, but compared to most MMO's Darkfall does have many sandbox features.
