What is your favorite dev quote about DFO? I think mine is this one

6. What can you tell us about thrown weapons in Darkfall?
Here's an example of a thrown weapon: the thrown potions: they can stun, blind, explode and cause damage, create smoke or fog screens etc. The effort is to make thrown weapons fun and effective (if you're good), and not just some gimped skill that you can't really use in combat.
just because to me it sounds like a lot of fun to be able to not really focus on magic but still have access to magic like effects.
How about you? What is your favorite dev quote about DFO?

Well folks, it's been a lot of fun doing this the past four years, but it's time I moved on. This is a great community, and I'm glad I had the chance to meet so many of you. Effective August 28th I'll be done!

that actually scares me a bit.
here is mine:
5.27. Traps
We will have all kinds of traps. Traps are just awesome. There are several different trap related skills, and a player that has them all can make some pretty nasty traps. I am talking about traps that when you open them, you get paralyzed, you become poisoned, a fireball blasts up in your face, and the trap summons a gargoyle to attack you. Expect those kind of combos on traps, so you better work that detect trap skill
the was the dev quote that brought me to DFO.

Someone asked for a description of a typical PvP and a PvE encounter: To this I'll answer that there is no typical encounter in Darkfall. There are too many variables and you never know what you're getting into. Here's a quick PvE encounter for you nevertheless:
You ride up to a seemingly abandoned village and you get off your mount to explore it. As you enter through a gate, you hear a sound just as a mob jumps on you from above and connects with its weapon. You back up trying to mess up its range while you pull out your battleaxe. You rush the mob which circle-strafes you and you miss in your initial attacks. You manage to trade a couple of blows with it and it turns and runs. You pull out your bow and you notice it's doing the same as it's running off. You aim for its back and right as you release, your aim is thrown off by the explosion of a fireball which knocks you back and you miss. By the time you recover, the initial mob starts landing arrows on you and its friends are shooting spells while a couple are closing in to engage you with melee weapons. You run to your mount under fire and you try to get away but it gets killed from under you and you have to run away zigzagging because your character is in bad shape. Just as you think you're safe, an arrow, fired by another player you haven't seen in all the commotion, finishes you off and you're summarily stripped of your belongings. The End.

To this I can say now, that during a planning meeting we determined that our launch date will be inside 2008, with the public beta preceding it by a few weeks. This is official and internally we're a lot more specific,

My favorite is the one where a lead developer is explaining their reasoning for not having prone position in the game: "Because CS and Quake don't have it, and they're just fine."
ROFL what a fucking dipshit, and one of the main reasons I think Darkfall will fail.
