    And that's why no one should Pre-Order out of the blue!

    Wait till there is an actual OPEN Beta with a LIFTED NDA! Wait till there are REAL reports from ACTUAL players playing the game in an actual OPEN Beta!

    But then again... we all know how stupid a lot of people are and they will Pre-Order anyway. 

    Cheers

    What do you think is going to happen this Thursday? Start of the Open Beta? Another announcement delay?
    Make your predictions here, and then come the 23rd we can all see how right or wrong we were.
    My prediction is that an Open Beta will begin, and Tasos will announce that they are bringing in new testers. However, I have a feeling it will simply be a roll-over of the current Beta Testers. There will be no mention of a confirmed release date, merely a 'more details to come' rebuff. I get the impression it will be a massive anti-climax.
    What do you guys think will happen?

     

    Open beta will begin but under nda and we will not know how many new tester will be added.

    I can't believe that no-one has predicted a new border for the 22nd yet. Or at the very least a colour change to eggshell white.

    Why not just wait and see rather than having un-educated speculatory guesses,

     

    as guess what,

     

     

    They are pointless!

     

    And hold an incredibly amount of bias,

    so stop littering these forums with things like this.

    Some people find it fun. If you don't like it you don't have to subject yourself to reading them.

    What else are we going to do in the meantime?

    I'm thinkingI should print some up and sell 'em to the fanbots. Watch Tasos rant and rave when there's nothing he can do about it. I can just see him trying to get the Greek government to have the U.S. extradite me. That would be worth the laugh alone.

    Took the janitor 8 years to learn enough code to make the white border. Don't ask for miracles.

    You could have them do for both fans and haters. I think there is real money to be made here. And an extra two sets of T-Shirts where there is a white border and a grey border around the Darkfall logo.

    Fanbots? Is that a spelling mistake or has Tasos' released a horde of robotic fanboys to shamelessly promote Darkfall? Perhaps they are re-programmed version of the supposed AI bots that tested the game so 'succesfully'.

    Perhaps this would explain Downtoearth's poor grammar. He is a malfunctioning Fanbot!

    I just started calling 'em fanbots because they're a little more fanatical than the normal "fanboi' and they spout the same excuses every time, just like a computer spouting the same loop of code over and over.

    I thought the fanbots were the revolutionary AI bots that were beta testing the game..well you learn something new everyday.

    I predict no beta at all tomorrow, or at the very most a rumor of one, but with the NDA still in place.

    I'm hoping that the trial will start, but I'm thinking it could just as easily pass as another day with no update

    15 Print "Trial delayed due to technical issues."

    I think the 22nd open the beta further, with 5 more invitations sent out.  Praise be to Aventurine for lying to its customers.

    But yeah, I think the 22nd will go by with a whimper.

    I do however think something "decent" will happen by the 25th of next month.  But this month, I'm just not feeling it.

    This falls into the realm of people who want TV Programs or Radio Shows taken off-air becuase they're "offensive"...

    And the response is the essentially the same...

    "If you don't like it... change the station; don't watch/listen"

    Or in this case...

    "If you don't like it... skip the thread and move on to another one."

    Apparently some people lack the capability to simply overlook or ignore things they don't like. They can't curb or control their own behavior (ie. not reading the thread in the first place, much less posting), so they call on others to curb theirs instead. ie. "take that show off the air", or "stop posting threads like this".

    No one but the mods here are in any position to tell anyone to "stop" doing anything.

    Forums, by their nature, promote open discussion of various topics, whether an individual likes them or not. It is not a place to call for censorship, telling people to "stop posting" things you don't like.

    Didn't expect to see this thread buried so far down...then again it IS only 4:03 A.M. EST....

    Yup ... officially the 22nd now.

    Let's see how right we all were! Although the way things are going I think silence seems the most plausible outcome...
