We freshened up the screenshot gallery (http://www.darkfallonline.com/gallery/visuals) a bit with some newer and mostly unreleased screenshots. These are from batches we've shown before so it's not really a big deal update-wise. We'll replace these with new screenshots as regularly as we can.

The official site's content hasn't been updated lately as busy as we've been with development and the off-site updates getting all the juice. We mean to correct this and get some irregular updates on the official site as well.

Any chance we'll get to see a Alfar screenshot this month? (edit: or at least an ork riding a drake)

Totaly impressed by the shot of the Ork Port! Seeing what the ship yards are all about was great and the overall visual of the town is Fantastic. Love that view distance ;)

I totally agree, that one shot alone makes me wanna play this game so bad.

Well you sure got the irregular part down pat ;) Always glad to get some screens.

Something that's been getting to me lately is that we've had plenty of shots of ships, sea vessels of all shapes and sizes.
But so far I haven't seen a single living being aboard one of those things, could be they're hiding under deck, or the ship is remote-controlled...Still, the port scene was simply awesome.

Yep, thats my favorite by far. Can't wait to see it in motion! :ohno: I really want to see what players can build though, and see the city building interface!

Another quick comment about the screen shots. Again, I love them! But I have to pick at a few things...in the interest of improvement.

1) One of the buildings appear to be very similar to a BF1942 map. In the case of the broken down building in the dwarf screenshot it literally seems like you took that out of an FPS map. I've never found those types of buildings to be all that tactical, often they're frustrating to navigate, and as I'm taking round after round in my back I think to myself "couldn't they have made it easier to move around in this building?"

Maybe I have it wrong here and this building has been hand made, or it's "underconstruction." And I understand that maybe it's supposed to be hard to navigate... I just don't want to be in a battle where I'm thinking "gee, I really thought I should've been able to run up that ramp of wood but I couldn't, and now I'm a dead guy. That building sucks, Bob Ross needs to repaint that thing."

2) It looks like the handicap accessible ramps are in for ships. I don't know anything about ships, maybe they all have ramps. Do they?

I'm also going to take this opportunity to question allowing a single character to command a ship. It seems like a single player or even two players have no business running a ship. I'm not saying that one should man the wheel, and another should hoist the sails, while another should poop on the poop deck. I'm just saying that a single ship holds a lot of power that a single player may not effectively wield in the spirt of the game. It would be cool if two or three players were needed to pilot a ship even if it technically only took ONE to actually do anything (steering wise). Maybe one has to be the navigator because it's not as accurate if you're steering AND watching the stars, moon, etc...

Just some thoughts...

I like the feel of the SS with the ship coming into the port town. It fits my own expectations of the DF world - has that realistic fantasy flavor to it. You can imagine that town housing a substantial corps of traders, craftsman, etc.

That pic is my new desktop. I love it for the same reasons. It feels, alive.

EDIT: That screen shot is the first still photo where I actually thought the clouds were moving.

Ok since no one has mentioned it I'm assuming I missed the big announcement where they said manual blocking and hitboxes were GOING TO BE IN THE GAME?

Forever we've been told they were a no go but today we find out that they are in?!?!?!.

Glad to hear it! =)

If you want to adress newcomers, might I suggest updateing the the website. Most won't join the forums and read up about 'the good stuff' unless they see enough on their first visit.
Nothing major, just obvious things like uploading all the latest screens and videos so people have something more accurate to go by.

I like to think that I had something to do with this. :D
...and then I like to go host a tea party for the Prime Minister and my collection of stuffed animals. :)

Glad to hear it! =)manual blocking is in, yes - but no word on a change regarding the "only one hitbox" topic...at least none that i know of

the port screenshot is really nice, i like the viewing distance...i can really imagine the feel of coming home after a long sail trip

Edit: Can we get a wallpaper in higher quality of this shot:http://www.darkfallonline.com/gallery/albums/visuals/Darkfall_2006_09_19_22_43_21_93_001.thum b.jpg

There is light at the end of the tunnel, Darkfall has finaly "Felt" and heard the Comunity, and has taken ONE small step in the right direction.

That they have actualy posted and made a small effort to start the overall changes needed to bring back a comunity and start a makeover, is a great sign.

Too long in comming but a nice small step.

Darkfall has a long road to counter the bad PR, and Too busy for the comunity
buisness model..

So it is refreshing to actualy see one of them post, even if its just a few screenies they failed to give to the 3rd party sites, at least for once the Comunity came first.

Perhaps this small step is the momentum to contenue and build a fresh comunity, lets see how long it lasts.

Darkfall is comming togeather and should be wickedly sweet game, the market is stale, lacking and in sore need of fresh (Quality) blood.

So its great that the impression is they are moveing toward some final stage where they can devote some effort to there PR and comunity, and To the long awated public Beta..

Nice first step Darkfall, Keep it moving...
