That's a sweet logo. I just checked the main site not 30 minutes ago, so it is very new.

Oh hey, now that they're updating the site, maybe they'll fix some of the FAQ?

KalTheo

Hmmm, I wasn't seeing it because of my Google Chrome settings. Fixed!

That's a sexy button.

Given the timeframe they gave us, it wouldn't be far fetched to say open beta if far off, and they are prepping the site for it. I would give it 1 more week, 2 tops. We know another wave of invites is going out this week, perhaps already.

cb = closed beta

probably they just updating their webpage. another clue that DFO is close, but we already knew that.

the negative point imo is that *maybe* they will not fully upgrade the website for release..

but damn I can feel something is going on there..

Its very very new I checked the site maybe an hour ago and it wasn't there. I actually thought how silly it was that the beta sign-ups were in the forum and not more visible on the front page. Very nice find. I wonder what it means!!!!! AUGH!?!?!?!?!

Watch the new site just slowly materializes as the day goes on.

They told us that shit was fixed back when the original sign-ups happened and most folks diag dx wasn't shown as uploaded.

I GOT IT!!! They are done selecting testers based on the dxdiag and it therefor ISNT uploaded. Leaving the application and whatever requisites they have now! kinda sounds like OMGZ OPEN BETASZ! to me but we'll wait a few days and see.

Clearly this is just an attempt at TASOS fooling us some more! Darkfall is complete Vaporware and they know we're all catching on so they decided to spruce a couple of things up on the main page, but who the fuck are they fooling I know what the hell is going on.



Just kidding, I was wondering about the user thing at the bottom being gone yesterday, I wanted to see how many people were on after that awesome update. I'm stoked for whatever is coming, as long as it's not "LOZ WTF PWNZ DF = VAPY VAPE!" in which case I get out my beating stick and go on a eurotripe-esque adventure to hunt down adventurine's building, or house, or basement, whatever it is.

No one cares AT ALL if they upgrade the site before release. WTF do you want them spending time on fancy new logos/pictures/boards or getting the game out faster?

It slows down the server when many users are logged in.

And not having the active user list would cut down on active users/ server load how?...

How would that work?... The people are already logged in it just needs to diplay their names. Forums store endless amounts of threads and it can't handle a LIST?

I haven't found a logical reason for the lists absence yet... very strange.

It's because of how VBulletin works. I don't know how much experience you have in coding so i'm not really going to elaborate but in summary : Disabling it = lower the number of request to the server.

joelfilho
11-19-2008, 09:17 PM
well looks like after Tasos posted the news about Testers first impression in the main site, he actually looked at it and said: "Hey! We still have that old link to the Clan Beta thing we announced but never happend on the main site! Now this we gotta fix! You, photoshoper dude, stop pking beta testers, do something and change it!"

Interesting news. Theyve been handlind like 400-800 active users easily pretty sure I remember. Maybe they are anticipating a rather large upsurge in forum traffic? Something to do with the signup being more visible? More visible even tho everyone here knew how to sign up? Almost like its purposely visible for those who are first coming to the site? Almost like the new people would hear about it on other websites and (hopefully) commercials very soon?

I gotta say part of me keeps saying these two little events mean absolutely nothing, but the part of me that thinks it means something is growing.

Could Soon really be SOON?
