Actually there are two teams trying to buy the licence:

http://darkfallnewdawn.com/

http://riseofagon.com/

But the CEO of Aventurine Zad Mehdawi is a major rear end in a top hat and I don't think it will work out.

Oh and since there is no alternative, I would totally buy the game.
In the meantime I will play this neat Unreal Tournament Pre-Alpha.

I have no idea what the difference between the two games is supposed to be.

seems like ROA stays true to original DFO combat and DND is looking to change many of the core gameplay features.

Have any of you guys played Mortal Online? It's a first person MMO kinda like what you guys have been describing. The coolest aspect of it for me is that the game world is largely undocumented and huge so finding things can actually happen. Unfortunately the combat was a bit janky for my tastes.

Yeah and I hate it. The fps combat is laggy as hell and feels like playing Arma2 with even more mouse lag.

seems like df is really going to die soon. The last programmer (https://www.reddit.com/user/axilmar) left the team:

Seems like AV is the worst company in the world to work for. I really hope we get df1 back, I need some kind of nostalgia injection.

Isn't Ark an actual good looking successful pvp sandbox mmo? Why aren't the df revival nerds playing that instead

Ark has huge performance problems, the combat is poo poo and its no mmo. The only thing df and ark have in common is the toxic community.

there were some dupe bugs which have apparently never been fixed. But players flying around and stuff was more an Unholy Wars thing.
Imo the main problem were the exploiters who had a very high skill/stat advantage early in the game.

just like in reallife. It will takes months from now on until the playable alpha is released

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:

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:

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. God only knows if the remakes are going to be able to sustain 3 digit populations.

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.
