Less than a week till mid-July

[Forsaken]

(tl;dr version at the bottom)

So when should we actually expect to see this supposed cornucopia of information, interviews and articles (plus visits to the DFO Headquarters in Greece) regarding Darkfall?

We were told DF related information wouldn't be making a appearance at E3, but can we at least expect *NEW* inside DFO information at least around the same time-frame as E3? (July 14th-17th)

Please no more piss poor Q&A's. We were told 2008 and we have yet to see anything of relevance to prove the existence of DFO outside of the brief negotiations with AudioVisual S.A.

6-12+ Screenshots (detailed) The community is sick of the same screenshots we've seen day in and out over the last 5 years of characters standing around and posing for the camera.

*Detailed : Pictures of the UI, Skill Trees, Crafting, Spell Tree's/Schools, skills raising in action, ATTRIBUTE system (strength, dexterity, intelligence, hitpoints, mana pool, etc) This information would give us plenty to talk about and discuss within the community since we've been fed nothing but table scraps over the years, we are tired of the "we want you to find the skills within the game yourself instead of us showing what skills are implemented thus far" Either deliver or just admit that 25% + of the featured skills are being cut for some reason or another.

1-2 Videos (detailed) ^ Same as above.

Relevant information regarding who your possible candidates are for North American publishing (information regarding if we'll even have access to a CD/DVD copy of the game or if we will be stuck doing a digital download instead)

2008 was announced for DFO release, enough with the soon, you've said that you have a internal date, has it changed? If it's changed to 2009+ tell us already.

It's the 7th month of the year already, how can you not give us a date / month for 2008 yet? You've got less than 5 months to choose from to set a date on, it can't possibly be that hard to say August, September, October, November or December 2008 for beta, even if it was Nov/Dec and rolled over into 2009, we'd all still be happier than flies on shit.

Either announce or tell us Soon (translation: not 2008 ready)

Thanks for reading

tl:dr version : Beta date now plox + detailed screenshots / video + where's the interviews, articles, etc regarding DFO (since mid july is approaching fast)

Thanks, things like that help me greatly. Would'nt get hopes up.

The devs will really appreciate this informations.
Now as they know what they have to do everything becomes right.

I don't usually agree with threads like this, but it needed to be said.

I really just want to see a video that shows us how combat works, the look of the races this far in development, and commentary from the devs.

[Jargo]

Thanks! I wouldn’t have realized what date it you hadn’t pointed it out. Shit, I still thought it was 1985 until right now.

[Arkir]

Every other thread like this was fail and I thought the person should go die seeing as they aren't worthy of Darkfall. This is the only one that I have read happily and agreed with.

PS the tl;dr version helped to. All posts over 3 paragraphs should have one.

With that being said, i've never been known to kiss ass and feel no need to be subtle and patient and to quote Soon till my fingers bleed.

There's a point at which even the most jaded of members needs to sit up and take charge instead of coddling the 7+ year development process.

Yes, I know we as a community have zero right to demand this or that or even expect it, fact is if we aren't vocal or even ask for more than the scraps we've received over the years for being loyal community members for the biggest vaportastic game ever (next to Duke Nukem Forever) why would or should they care to begin with?

Now i'm not calling DF out and calling it vapor, i'm pointing out the obvious fact we as community members of these forums have over the years, defended the game on every corner of the net against the vapor trolls and we've been fed piss poor Q&A's and text dialogue and vague screenshots and tiny video clips for so long, that's all they give us, because we've allowed them to condition themselves to a higher seat than us all for a few scraps of nothing.

Now if a developer simply told me, "Piss off, we don't need you" then things would be different, however the crap dialogue and updates we've received over the years is pretty much the equivalent...I can honestly say the only time i've been happy about the updates we receive was the 2008 announcement, I guess I should say clan beta as well, but that was a terrible fiasco of a lie.

I aim to please only those that agree with the fact we need to wake up and demand more than the table scraps we've received gladly over the years.

Well said.



It's less than a complete single sentence, at least try and add the 't to your don't.

no sarcasm there.... being honest and straight forward.. when it comes to darkfall you should never EXPECT anything.

[Henalim]

Most people would at least appreciate to know dates, but I agree with Ferox.
