So... are any goons signing up to play in DarkFall: RoA server? I'd like to play with Goons if possible. Otherwise, I'll go join some other sperg guild. SabinBlitz fucked around with this message at 23:24 on Mar 3, 2016 |

SabinBlitz posted:Between New Dawn and Rise of Agon, I like the direction RoA is going. So I'll wait for RoA to release a server. Good luck to New Dawn. I was very upset when MH stopped being neighbors with goons back in the day. I had no easy solo raid targets in range and that sucked. Deki fucked around with this message at 23:25 on Mar 3, 2016 |

I'm going to play both versions and decide later on which one is better. Looks like Ub3rgames has set up an internal testing server: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hGS8c5cPA28

5 pages eh? I really cant see why people still want to try this, so i feel obliged to make a serious post about it Being greek and all I always wanted to support this title (even though the game was made somewhere in scandinavia and sold off incomplete to incompetent greek developers), so I tried the original DF a few months after launch. The grind seemed too tedious for a sub game and the player base was loving annoying so I quit. Later when DFUW was released I went total poopsock (by my standards) at launch, spent as much time as I could on it and ran with a very organized guild called Lux Aeterna on the EU server. We did some accomplishments like getting server 1st on "1st big town built" and other arduous teamwork poo poo like that. gently caress this post, bottom line is we did PVP events to train among ourselves using fairly good gear (we had dedicated guild crafters), and I saw a few uber hardcore poopsockers soloing like 10 mediocre poopsockers in 10vs1 with ease. Get this, 1 hardcore nolifenosleep tryhard soloing 10 well armored mid level players, a few weeks after release, without even trying. Go figure the implications of such imbalance in a full loot game. Then we did some group roams in search for group PVP all around the map -a month or so after launch- and the world was loving EMPTY. I mean empty as in: NO PEOPLE IN IT. Thats where I quit for good. The guild disbanded shortly after as they realised that the game was dead to begin with So goons, dont spend money or time on that game, it will be empty from the start. Dont even try forming or joining a poopsock guild to excel at it. Its just a bad game, no way around it.

The one good thing about Darkfall is the art style, it's like Galaxies, it'll look good 10 years from now.

why is there so much hate towards this game? Who cares about lovely graphics? No other game is like Darkfall.

Well when you're given gameplay that doesn't live up to expectations, looking to the art direction for something worth appreciating is a natural next step. I imagine that's why people care about the lovely graphics. Seems kinda obvious, really.

That's not that impressive considering all alpha proves is they got the Darkfall back end working.

Alexander DeLarge posted:It has a muddy Morrowind-esque charm to it, along with the "painted look". I'd certainly prefer that over Age of Conan which tried to look super realistic for the time it was released. The original release was kind of interesting. Most of the interest in the game seems to be based off of it and a misconception about the state of the game back then. I mean, it was basically EVE without the spreadsheets with Morrowind-esque combat added in in a loving huge world. I remember setting up shop in a city in the far corner of the map on this island and the experience was legitimately fun. The pilgrimage to get up there was tense as gently caress and involved constructing a boat to get past all the horrible poo poo in the water. I ended up playing a smith that just churned out armor and weapons to help colonize this murderously lethal island that'd kill you half the time you stepped outside the walls. Eventually we tamed the place and turned it into our own personal island paradise. It was like an early era ARK. Then everyone realized how easy it was to exploit their stupid skill system and everything fell apart as people stayed logged in 24/7 with macros and hit godlike levels. Cue small armies of legitimate players getting annihilated by assholes using mountains as cover to snipe things with overpowered spells from half a mile away instead of brutal melee battles. Aventurine refused to fix it and all the other exploits and the game just went to poo poo as everyone left.

Darkfall run by its own players seems like the only way it will ever be fun and successful even if its played by like 500 people max. AV was a shitpile. If anyone wants to run around on RoA Alpha and duel with me hit up Ringing Cellphone

The game was ruined by the stats and grind for me. I'm really intrigued to see if a group of players can run and manage the game better than the creators. I still feel like they will hit a roadblock. 20 bucks ain't that bad for a buy-in though, so I may take the plunge.

sorry for reanimating this thread, but the whole df revival thingy is absolutely hilarious at the moment. DF: ROA had an alpha server running but was forced to take it down because they forgot server security. The guy who works at the emulator since years sums it up pretty good: http://darkfallemu.com/darkfall_emu_update_roa_security/

Unholy wars was weird for me because I didn't think it was that bad for the month or so I played, but the "Core" darkfall players hated it.

Ub3rgames is much more professional than Aventurine ever was. If they can really implement all those promised features (e.g. local banking, fewer grind skills, no need of autohotkey) and maybe improve the graphics a little bit I'm so gonna play it. But when I hear about the first guilds duping I'm probably going to leave sooner or later.

The fact that "Ub3rgames" are the ones behind this is what makes me never want to touch this, besides the fact that it's you know, Darkfall for the third time.
