| Guessing they were aiming for a pre Christmas release,
but i dont know, might be good, by end of jan theres probably a lot of bored wow / aoc / war players ready to try something new ;)
Anyways, im still interested to see whether this is the fun challenging mmo i hope it will be |
| I doub many wow war or aoc players gonne play darkfall its to hardcore sandbox+free for all pvp full loot.
But finally the game ive waited more then 5 years will be released:) |
| History was made today!
...until the next delay announcement :P |
| Sigoya: History was made today!
...until the next delay announcement :P
They'd better not delay or the Kingdom of Cupcakes is gonna test out our Subatomic Icing SuPeRnUkEs!
Also, considering I've wanted to say this since I was five...
"I find your lack of faith disturbing." |
| Yay, now begins the waiting game...
I hope this succeeds though and doesn't go the way light and dark went. |
| Ralackk: Yay, now begins the waiting game...
Is that double irony? :P |
| Sigoya:
Ralackk: Yay, now begins the waiting game...
Is that double irony? :P
No I'm not that intelligent. |
| Then you win the accidental irony award. |
| Do I get a badge for that? |
| Enjoy!
WarCry's Double Irony Badge

|
| That would make an awesome badge. You need to get in touch with the badge making elfs and get that shrunk down ASAP. |
| Sigoya: Enjoy!
WarCry's Double Irony Badge

Lol classic |
| Ralackk: That would make an awesome badge. You need to get in touch with the badge making elfs and get that shrunk down ASAP.
You think I didn't try? :P
Might require some lobbying efforts by the community :D |
| Has anybody ever heard the word "delayed"?
You're about to.
Many times. |
| I think Darkfall is in league with other things some people think were imaginary...so what I am saying is expect your copy of DF to be delivered ahead of schedule by Santa Claus on Christmas Morning. "It's a miracle!!!" you will exclaim as you load up and play the most awesomest mind blowing kick assiest game ever. It's graphics are so revolutionary they will make your eyes bleed. And the game play full on non-instanced ass kickery and open Pvpliciousness sooooo damn bad ass it will make you crap iron chunks for weeks!!! AAAAAH Hell ya!!!!!!!!!!!
Alternate Endings:
1. It will be delayed and delayed and we will still be talking about this crap next year. 2. It will release in January in Europe and be horribly disappointing and never see the light of day in the US.
PS: Bigfoot is delivering my copy tomorrow while riding on the back of a giant jackelope. |

Lobbying sounds like alot of effort all you need is a cat o' nine tails and a little elbow grease. |

that sounds painful, glad I'm not the one that makes the badges. |
| Haha! The Euros get to suffer first! This way we'll know for sure what the game is like beforehand, without being temped to buy it the first day of release. And where the hell is our open beta?! |
| Wow, you guys used to make for better more witty trolls these latest attempts are just really feeble and uninspired
come on, you can do better!
altough i give bloody props for the giant jackelope |
| Aw c'mon now, Nightfreak....they've lost the 'vaporware' assertion and most other commonly held myths about DF. You have to give them something to cling onto. :D
I'm having way too much fun with several other games to worry about DF either way until the end of January. :) |
