• • AoC will Shine when DX10 comes very soon!

  • I couldn't care less about DX10, but launch day was a day of infamy for Funcom. Lying through their teeth about DX10 to sell more games and then only on launch day after Open Beta and Closed and Tech and Early Access and 5 years of making the game, they only could announce it when everyone bought the game, that it wasn't in the game anyway.

    Funcom = Funcon. And I must say their way of doing business is a appalling.

    Besides how can adding a feature that was on the friggin box change the fact that this game is a total failure. People with super computers can't even run it smoothly (myself included) on DX9. DX10 (if ever released) will just add to the problems.

    Vaporware huh? thats been claimed about all mmo's...  besides how stupid will you look when it turns out to be real, and a great game?

    If this game is 75% of what they promise, it may lack boats for instance, for me it will still be a good game, or atleast a step in the right direction.

     

    lol mr. 2 posts.

     

    Darkfall is a lie; a scam. This Q&A brings nothing new to the table.

    Please remove darkfall from mmorpg.com

• • I see a lot of hype for Bioware's MMO in here, but...

    I hope not.

     

    The focus on PvP and not immersion (world feel, lore, "real" Questing, customization) is moving me away-from MMORPGs, and I know I am not alone.

     

    I want

    • Depth
    • Customization
    • Quests that are deep and not tasks (unless I want to do tasks, but not forced-tasking)
    • Community cooperation
    • World that is real
    • Immersion on a new, different, and complex level

     

    PvP is fine, but cheap PvP in an instanced area is not immersion.  PvP needs to be a part of the game's lore, story, and optional. 

     

    Ai ai I couldn't disagree more (and I know I am not alone).

    I want

    • depth
    • custimization
    • pvp that is meaningful
    • community interaction
    • world that is big and interesting to explore
    • Immersion on a new and complex level

    Enough of pve games like LotRO

    I don't want carebear, hold in hand, linear, pure questing games. I want a real experience.

    Take early SWG pre NGE, put much more content in, test for bugs, balance classes, add more vehicles, second generation graphics, and keep all the many details of player housing, crafting, player economy, oh and improve factional warfare a lot and add random events of pve stormtrooper and rebel raids. Oh and remove all battlegrounds!

    Thanks for your comprehension!

• • the continued adventures of the returned player, a whine...

    ok, not so much of a whine, i really should have watched my back, but still...

    so it's been another week or so since my return, having petitioned for my ships to be moved from 0.0 hostile space and didn't get an answer (couldn't find the petition itself after relogging actually so meh) i decide to do the social thing, i contact an officer in the corp currently holding the station my ships are in, and to my surprise he's really understanding about the whole situation (yeah, i should have smelled something rotten at that point...) and for a most reasonable fee he'll let me do the trips to get the ships out.

    so i go get myself a stack of disposable frigates (T1 fitted condors, about 100k/frigate including the fittings) and over i go, i do the 50 jump route, come in front of the station, and what's this, i can't dock?!

    i contact the person, he say, no problems, i'll be right there, 5min later he's there all right, with 2 buddies...

    so i collect my clone, reapply him, have some words with the person "we're sorry for the mistake, blah blah blah...", no real worries, so i wasted 2.1m isk, i get more doing a single l4 mission, over to my hangar, collect another cheap frig, and back to the 0.0 station, hmm, what's this, i can't dock again...

    so i'm playing a bit smarter, warp to nowhere, talk to guy, got the ok from him, warping back, hello to him and 2 buddies, and warp out, at this point i know i'm here for target practice, as the target..

    so i turn tail and head back to empire, what's this, a warp bubble on my gate?!...

    so i collect my clone again, chalk my 0.0 ships as a frozen asset at this time, and go back to doing missions.

    (as an aside, it could have been worse, they could have let me take out my raven or apoc before blowing me up, which would have been alot more painful then losing a 100k ship )
