  • 2004 was right for the first...I'll go with 2006 on this one.

  • God, what an ironic and scary...yet funny, idea.  Random, you pulled yourself out of any doubt in my mind.  This topic's a winner.

    JFYI, I went with 2004, but have a feeling it was 2007

  • How are some people this ignorant of situations...Really?

    I can honestly understand someone with an optimistic outlook, but ZtyX takes that to a whole other level of crazy.

    I don't understand humans...Never will.                 

     

    EDIT* About the actual topic...

    I don't know I would have liked any action taken from this site towards Aventurine.  A Q&A session is better than nothing, but would likely still produce the same contorted answers.

    Meh...Around the 10th I will really start to wonder what exactly Aventurine was thinking, if all we have by then is the 8th issue of "TheNoob in Darkfall".  Whatever, they can do as they wish; I just won't buy their potential-lost game.

    Understood Rhinok, but my concerns about Darkfall are even greater seeing that Darkfall is trying to pull off even more now. To be a first person style of game, then the game engine needs to run VERY fast and smooth to provide for good game play, as in a first person shooter FPS. Could you imagine playing Halo 3 with slow character movement or extreme lag?

    Okay, so they are trying to pull off a first person viewpoint where your move your mouse in the direction you are looking. I got that now. I never really studied all the promised features of Darkfall and how they plan to implement everything, but now I wonder about a million more little details, which is probably not answered yet.

    See, this game certainly seems like it is trying to pull off way more then it can handle. It's trying to be a fast moving, skill based FPS style game that is also an mmo on a single server with 200 vs 200 player warefare as I've seen talked about several times on these forums already. It's trying to promise a million things and everyones favorite parts of a hundred thousand game style elements and put them all into this "sounds too good to be true" type of game.

    But we can talk forever about what they are promising to be implemented in the game. What is actually going to happen when I install and play this game on my computer is where my real concerns are. My doctor can tell me that a pill I'm supposed to take tastes like moist, tender Chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy, and warm apple pie all in the same little pill. And his nurses that work with him, for him in his offices can tell me the same thing. But that don't mean I'm not gonna taste a chalky piece of crap pill when I put it in my mouth. (The nurses in his office being all the friends and people who put up reviews of this game from the offices or control of Aventurine)

    Honestly, sit back and try to enjoy the ride.  If the something big is going to happen, it'll happen this month.  There's no reason to get worked up about the "flaws" of a game you've not yet played, so just hold off until the beta.  Go play some 360...Or something.
