Darkfall versus Age of Conan

Thought it was some shitty troll thread didn't you?

Read the game master's message.

Edit: When do you expect to get a message like this, when a GM threatens to "take action on your account" in Darkfall?

[shnedit]

Not surprised really.

Edit: Well i am, but hey its a silly thing to have implemented in the first place. Cut scene things on NPCs = no.

[Jonkar]

Old news?

[Henu989]

This is one of the many reasons for the forumfall law 6 ,section 43B: "A forumfaller must hate all things related to AoC"

And why the hell do they have unescapable cut scenes ?

[Fro]

nice game mechanics you got there AoC!

[Bimbaa]

Seems like the AoC developers really thought that one out carefully before implementing it.. :lmao:

[Eternalsinner]

lawl. that will never happin.

Could the GM be any more pretentious sounding?

[GRCPan]

This one is old.
It just shows how crappy AoC is.

Because they like boys

[pidin]

FunCom just wasted a good oportunity in a weak shity game.

[Henu989]

Because they like boys
Then why did they add boobies in the game ?

...unless it was to attract boys!
IT ALL MAKES SENSE!

[Morthor]

Thats hilarious. If they don't allow it, why is the ability to attack people featured in the game?

[Fry Me Baby]

Bingo :idea:

[evoke]

Cut scenes in an MMORPG = retarded. Gotta love the Russians spamming the OOC. Please Aventurine give us a North America only server.

[Staatsschutz]

nice graphics in that picture though :). i like wide mountain ranges that you can climb

/edit ok but to not do aoc any better than it deserves: i bet those mountain ranges are not even accessible, since its a zone based game

[Henu989]

Can you actually climb them in AoC ?

[Jester814]

Yet another reason I quit AOC after month 1. The people who ran the game had problems that were THEIR fault with THEIR game and were BANNING players because THEIR game was fucked up.

It is completely unacceptable to have errors in your game that a player can utilize without even KNOWING and ban them.

[Jester814]

Can you actually climb them in AoC ?

No.... well sortof. There were predetermined spots that you could climb in AoC, it was like ladders on the mountian.

Darkfall will be the FIRST MMO I've ever heard of to have actual climbing anywhere.

[brainiak]

well, just another proof that aoc sucks hard...

No.... well sortof. There were predetermined spots that you could climb in AoC, it was like ladders on the mountian.

clilmbing is in wurm online.

[Eternalsinner]

No.... well sortof. There were predetermined spots that you could climb in AoC, it was like ladders on the mountian.

for some reason... i really dont think climbing will be in, unless its a ladder to a rooftop or something like that.

[Fry Me Baby]

No.... well sortof. There were predetermined spots that you could climb in AoC, it was like ladders on the mountian.

Darkfall will be the FIRST MMO I've ever heard of to have actual climbing anywhere.

I like predetermined spots. They make me feel so free

[RavenialNoct]

I'm still piddling around on AoC until my month ends...here is a link to their forums...its like watching a building burn...a building that promised sweet things....and was EMPTY


http://forums.ageofconan.com/forumdisplay.php?f=8

truly they could have done a lot with the combo system and honestly, certain spells and abilities its something that could be sorta cool, (anyone play Arx fatales, or legend of legia?) I wouldn't mind seeing something like that for maybe even just playing musical instruments or certain aspects of crafting or something...on that note

http://img356.imageshack.us/my.php?image=aocguiiu0.gif

above is an AoC player proposal for a much better combo system IMO


Does Darkfall have multiple swing directions?

[RavenialNoct]

somehow multiposted...deleting second

[Jonkar]

Does Darkfall have multiple swing directions?

Watch the combat/gameplay video from 2007. I believe it showed multiple ways to attack in there with a sword.

[Lethn]

In game cutscenes are shit, especially if there's a huge battle right after them so you have to watch through the same fucking cutscene every fucking time because you can't save during a fight ( Mass effect anyone? ) pre-rendered cutscenes are way better and more fun to watch as well and it just shows how lazy Games Developers have gotten.

[Champion_Mark]

I've been playing for a while, like 3 weeks. Ya know, the first two weeks wasn't bad, but the 3rd week I just can't play it anymore. It is too much like a wannabe WOW, the content is just not there, the player base is just no there. I play on a pvp server, and I'm sorry to say I just can't really get into the game. It skips horrible even above the system requirements (I admit my pc isn't the greatest, but low everything should be okay, beings I play wow at max everything, guess you can't really compare them though), zoning into an instance takes years, and bugs that I know have been around for quite some time just are not getting fixed, for fuck sakes I get my ass killed trying to dismount off a horse. I've even had stuff happen where I cannot dismount and die trying to dismount. (I have a 5 Ranger, 18 Assassin, 28 Bear Shaman, and 53 Guardian, so I've played just a bit)

There is just no content, and getting to 80 is just much to easy. The pvp is just so unbalanced, I can't tell if they know how to play pvp or not. This company is pretty bad too, bugs in the game they don't admit too, or lack of programming.

The thing that fries me the most is just all the instancing, it may take you forever to get somewhere in WOW, but at least you're not spending 2-3 minutes at a load screen every 5 minutes.

[Mourne]

Yeah, I thought this was a troll thread at first. You got me!

But, I've heard of this bullshit before. Even with no cutscenes involved. Some friends of mine, about 5 of them, were killing other players and were contacted by GM's and being told that they weren't allowed to get that many players together to pvp because it was considered griefing... :lmao:

[Lachrymose]

the player base of AoC sucks b/c anyone stupid enough to still be playing it probably isn't very much fun to talk to.

[Jonkar]

Exactly. As a matter of fact, I think most are brain dead, so they can't speak at all.

What? Climbing is in afaik.

[Madrandomize]

AOC is a very good game.One of the best in the market right now.It
is also far more superior that darkfall in every aspect.Regarding pvp Aoc is
a masterpiece that surpassed every other pvp mmorpg.Only a
piece of it's features is missing but everything promished is really there.
Of all the games that i have played aoc has the best community and darkfall's is
crap.

Noobs go and get a copy of aoc now.


Still dont get it?I know i am not so original.

Your sarcasm fails. Atleast, I hope you were being sarcastic.

[Madrandomize]

Nope i wasn't but you failed to detect the true meaning.

[Zenoseiya]

[Rogger]

Does Darkfall have multiple swing directions?

I hadn't thaught much about this. Thou, i looked at a video now.
And i saw what i had seen before, just noticed it from another aspect now, is there even a "stab-function"? :)
Or is it only with daggers, or something like that?
Or, i meen, not a possible action with a sword.

If it is, it would be really cool with, not only a right and a left swing possibility, but even a stab one too with the sword. :)

[RavenialNoct]

Yeah I really hope it has swing directions\stab, that would liven up combat. I mean even a huge bar of point n click abilities is probably better than 1 button mashing swing.

[Jonkar]

I would be surprised if there weren't multiple ways to attack with your melee weapons, at the very least. Seeing as combat is one of the main aspects of Darkfall.

[Lethn]

They said the combat is like in mount and blade and you can pretty much control the direction you attack in from what I remember.

[Barokk]

the player base of AoC sucks b/c anyone stupid enough to still be playing it probably isn't very much fun to talk to.

Circular reasoning;

you suck.


Circular reasoning

"High" dead-level abstracting often entails circular logic. Here's an example (from a UK alt-media forum):

"Although the Guardian is ostensibly a truth-loving newspaper, the reality is that it continually suppresses truth, as it's essentially part of power, whose main function is truth-suppression".

Circular reasoning provides nothing but self-confirming abstractions: "X suppresses truth because it's part of Y, which suppresses truth". And how do we know that X is part of Y? "Er… because X suppresses truth". (Some good examples of circular reasoning in classical economic theory are given in an extract from The Tyranny of Words by Stuart Chase).

[Barokk]

Exactly. As a matter of fact, I think most are brain dead, so they can't speak at all.

You also suck, for agreeing with BS; see above post.

"AoC is a piece of Darkfall's crap. Noobs"

Do all your posts have hidden messages?

[IcePillow]

Hm... That's fun.

[Feyrband]

you can turn them off. if you are on a pvp server and dont have em turned off you fucking deserve to get wtf pwnd.

[Madrandomize]

"AoC is a piece of Darkfall's crap. Noobs"

Do all your posts have hidden messages?

nope i did it first time but i will do it more often from now on
cause it looks like fun when people try to understand what
i am saying in a generally senseless post.I dont think all are smart as i
am but i think they will eventually figure out what i am trying to say.To all
leet speech users out there go F yourselfs.

[Suho]

Woah, I fail at making threads :), it went from "when do you think GMs will threaten to ban you for doing something in Darkfall" to AoC hating and now Darkfall game mechanics.

As for climbing (not so much climbing as jumping around on your fucking mount)...any of you who played WoW remember Hyjal/Ironforge roof?
I think that was bannable as well, just shows how much in common broken games have. Next we'll get banned for taking a shit in the woods just because they accidentally made it possible, but didn't intend for it to be in the game.

[yamisniper]

Seems like the AoC developers really thought that one out carefully before implementing it.. :lmao:

like levels and open pvp lol

[Deja vu]

why all the AoC hate? Just because AoC was released super buggy, has poorly planed game mechanics, is secretly a WoW clone,is run by Nazi dictators and had a really large fan base calling DFO vapor is no reason to hate AoC... well ok may be it is :lmao:

[Osirus]

This is one of the many reasons for the forumfall law 6 ,section 43B: "A forumfaller must hate all things related to AoC"

And why the hell do they have unescapable cut scenes ?

if I remember right, ESC takes you out of the cut scene.

[Krogan]

Age of What now? Anyone remember this game? I have fast fading memories of one of the biggest failures of mmo history but that's about it.

rofl thats why Age of Faliure will flop...FFA PvP? who are they kidding

[Surly]

Tasos in a thong!

[rendelgrendel]

Tasos in a thong!

your a fucking asshole

[Thunderjohn]

Wtf is that shit. Its like: We give you the privilege to attack everyone you want but you must not attack people that are on cutsenes(rofl cutscenes in mmo?)/afk? its their own god damn fault if they are on cutscenes, even for a shitty game like Aoc you cant "take action on someones account" for pking since its in the game. isnt it enough that he pays for this pile of SHIT?

:bang::bang::bang:WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?!?!?:bang::bang::bang:

[Suho]

isnt it enough that he pays for this pile of SHIT?

:bang::bang::bang:WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?!?!?:bang::bang::bang:

Good thing it's not me paying/playing. Most of my online buddies decided to play it and that's where I got that screenshot from. I told them at release to GTFO because it was gonna be shit, guess I was right.

My first clue that AoC will stink worse than a 2month old dead pig was the 3 month delay of "buddy key" activation-hell if they can't manage to do THAT properly, how the fuck are they supposed to make a functional game?

[zorena]

So basicly the gm says that they added cutsceens to their game and they allowed everyone to pvp but you ain't allowed to attack when they are in cutscene?

(insert random features)
Ban ppl for using them.


Oh and the thought of making ppl immune while in cutscenes or remove their character from the active game world?

[Jonkar]

It almost makes you want to buy an account and begin a discussion with GM's. I bet forumfallers can make them cry.

[Thardon]

"AoC's PvP servers offers you the ability to attack players everywhere and at any time."
Yeah,right..

[Everto]

Edit: When do you expect to get a message like this, when a GM threatens to "take action on your account" in Darkfall?

When I make Surly commit suicide due to me having all his loot plastered upon my wall gaurded by Elvis Presley.

[zakariaz]

I seriously dont hope that the gm's in the game will ban people for anything except perhaps using glitches and bugs for own advantage.
That is the only instance where I can understand a gm taking action.

There, i edited it for everyone :D

[Sam Fisher]

There, i edited it for everyone :D

LOL! pwned.

and wow, i was considering AoC to be an alright game since my friend was saying its just as good as darkfall. but after this, it really is a peice of darkfall's shit.

darkfall FTW!

[Xez]

This is why some people call it Age of Carebears. But I should really consider to stop bashing AoC as this is like kicking some disabled child.

[Gestas]

Legendary Tasos has foretold that we shall have no bindings over player control.

/thread.

[holychicken]

The problem is that the OP's scenario can be viewed as a bug.

They should only punish mainly only for hacks. Glitches and bugs, unless very, very bad, should be removed through coding, not through "account action."

[GRCPan]

well hacks will be the main reason to ban someone I believe.

[Suitepee]

And why the hell do they have unescapable cut scenes ?

To test your 'click the advance speech button quickly and get/complete the quest quickly before I get attacked' forward reflex skills.
Side-effects include loss of immersion,realisation that AoC is a pile of crap and lack of desire to do questing.

[palo god]

Cut scenes in an MMORPG = retarded. Gotta love the Russians spamming the OOC. Please Aventurine give us a North America only server.
