vaporware my ass. notice the big ass poster behind the dev team, all the darkfall posters and shirts and the huge crowd of people, and the computer running the game.

trolls can shut the hell up now.

That crowd was photoshopped!!!1!11one1!!

etc

Some of the trolls, I'm sure, are paid by other mmo companies to de-hype Darkfall, even against the overwhelming weight of evidence, so it's never going to stop. Once Darkfall releases the paid trolls will start claiming that the game is unplayable in the various forums just to scare off potential players. It'll make a change from the trolls trying to scare off potential followers with their claims of Darkfall's complete non-existence, but it'll be "same old crap - different flavour".

It's funny to see people take the trolls at face value and then go off repeating the BS. They're the same people who took Funcom's hype at face value and pre-ordered a beautifully packaged turd.

I noticed a few lurking here and there.

now rather than going through and linking all the videos on youtube we can just use this thread.

One thread to rule them all!

Okay I already apologized for doubting the existence of DF,God, Aliens and Big Foot. However is it all just wandering around generic landscapes and looking for PvP fights? I guess I wish the videos showed a bit more interesting game play and using the interface...other than moving a few windows around.

Yea, I'm paid by an MMO. I come here to de-hype a game developed in Greece that has missed countless timelines, and is less than 45 days from missing another.....mmmk.

While DF is going to be relatively big in the MMO community when/if it comes out, it hasn't been "hyped" as much as you seem to insinuate. I would think if MMO developers were paying trolls, they would have hit AoC forums, Warhammer Online forums, and the WoW forums pre-WOTLK.

Some die-hards for Darkfall make me giggle, I swear.

Countless?
Other than the BETA that didnt happen a few years ago?
And an occassional dev journal which wasnt posted on time? Please amaze us by telling what other deadlines they missed??

Thing is they don't set hardly any. They use the same sort of sidestepping talk a used car salesman or politician uses. After listening to them you walk away thinking "he didn't really say or commit to anything".

All of the deadlines they HAVE set they have missed.

Whats funny is that this game does not even exist for most of the MMO community. I know tons of people who have NEVER heard of it. Pretty sad for something that has been a "concept" for 7 years. The Darkfall devs have been so successful at keeping the game in-house that its virtually unknown in the larger gaming community. Thats not a good thing.

As far as I'm concerned, every game is vaporware till it hits the store shelves. Theres a big fat line to cross from beta to retail. Its an exspensive one too.

I'm with Hemi on this one....I had never heard of Darkfall until I saw a complaint from another user about the people here. I don't hold much stock in anything until it's available for purchase/download.

I listed about 12 developer journals, internal dates, and other deadlines the dev team had discussed with the public. It was disputed and eventually deleted by mods on the DF forums. I'm not going to go through the trouble to do it again.

Jan 1, 2009 is all you need to worry about anyway, the past is the past.

EDIT: to stay on topic, I highly doubt anyone is paid to post on a forum bashing a barely visible game in the community. That was the point of my post.

I agree, a 2008 release is unlikely.

However, a DF release within the next few months is likely.

the game is finally made it to the point where all that really remains is a beta stress test.

people can keep calling vaporware.

I'll just keep posting gameplay vids in the meantime.

Hey, I just thought of something. Isnt it genius how you can flake on deadlines in development and by keeping a low profile and not hyping yourself much, once you start going public all of the missed deadlines wont seem to matter to the new fans?

I find it astounding that the devs havent done much hyping themselves and there are threads and forums everywhere on the net. For a game only hyped by word of mouth of fans, thats impressive. I can only imagine once the real PR kicks in.

oh I did a search for the darkfall preview on google and came up with some cool things.

you know just in case there was anyone out there that still thinks this game is vaporware.

the floggings will continue until trolls admit that the devs have just been flakey but ther is in fact a game in the works.

Another fanboi that joined less than 48 hours ago hyping the same game...hmmmm somethin's fishy.

I'm leaning toward a Clown Fish.
