Aventurine's Tasos Flambouras has announced via the official Darkfall forums that the development team will be kicking off a new initiative to really step things up on community relations with the players. The idea here is to better respond to feedback and provide insight on a number of players' concerns with the game.

Tasos also announced that old players will be invited back to the game on April 26th in order to experience the changes the team has made to the game in their absence, provide feedback, and participate in some cool new events.
