  • Link realms is the only one I can think of off the top of my head, it is in beta by invite I believe. If you go on their forums you might get a place in their beta. I dont know much about it though other than what I have read in this thread: www…
  • I honestly dont see any mmo failing in 2009 or the next couple of years. War has closed 68 servers, but apparently still has 250 to 300k subscribers, ofcourse this is not alot for the amount of money they probably put in the game but I dont think it…
  • Only one I can think of that hasn't been mentioned is the Redwall series by Brian Jacques. Would be a good mmo for a younger audience, although if I remember right they have quite a lot of fighting in those books so no reason why it couldnt appeal t…
  • For the ground combat, moving around etc judging from the latest video looks fine. The mounted combat view looks terrible though, and I hope it is changed to a tight third person view the current view from that video just looks annoying. It actually…
  • I think that Earthrise and Mortal online are the only PvP focused, sandbox type game comming out. The Chronicles of spellborn wants to have a large PvP focused, but I really doubt they can get themselfs out of the hole they have dug. I was looking…
  • I attend life drawing classes regually, so it really is no big deal at all to me to see someone naked especially in the case of a character model in a game, which is technically a form of art. Now if they started adding ragdoll physics and seperate …
  • Except the paragraph about instant PvP contradicts that statement (The open PvP part), because having instant PvP in the simulater and getting rewarded for it will cause everyone to go to the simulater to level up, as it will be much faster then fly…
  • If it is anything like beta, turn off shadows, and turn off smooth mouse it makes a significant difference. Also everyone should turn off shadows regardless of whether you are having problems with frame rate, see the difference to visability it ma…
  • Apparently they are going to add rewards to instanced PvP as well, thats been proven time and time again to not work. They are also adding safe zones around jumpgates which will obviously lead to higly exploitable areas, it would be better to have…
  • I think I will wait, there are aspects of Darkfall I really enjoy and I get the feeling whilst playing that all the game really needs is more time to polish the areas of the game I do not like. Ill probably wait a month or two and see how they deal …
  • The actual fee is very low monthly I dont think it will be a problem for most. However, what will be a problem is now people will not give them leeway for being an indy company because they are not charging lower prices for what is essentially a ver…
  • Originally posted by Darkstar111 Originally posted by Scriar They also have intergrated graphics cards half the time, so it is worth noting now what you actually need to run the game so they dont complain later lol edit: btw I have heard there …

  • I would recommend atleast 2 gigabytes of ram for Darkfall, it is really heavy on the ram requirments. I believe it uses just over 1.5 gigabytes of ram space most of the time, so those with 1 gig may have quite a bit of lag, or find larger battles ha…
  • Originally posted by Loke666 Originally posted by Scriar Ahh almost forgot the patcher btw is terrible, I have a 100 megabyte connection speed and it took me 2 days to download this game I really hope they upgrade that system if they are going…
  • Originally posted by Respit   Thanks for the reply. I guess I could have asked the 3rd question like this: Do all weapon types, besides Archery, fall under the same skill/skill sets? Just a Generic "Melee 35/100". I haven't noticed or s…
  • Originally posted by Aragon100   My point was that your review is based on newbie characters PvP performance just like all the other previews you can read. PvP on newbie characters is not endgame PvP, it's just .......newbie PvP. PvP …
  • Originally posted by AmazingAvery Best thing about the beta was how fast it downloads. 2mb/s for me and done 8.6gb in such as fast time. It is handled well in this area. It took me 2 days and I have a 100 MB/s connection speed. It really jumpe…
  • Originally posted by Aragon100 Originally posted by Scriar  The Bad: The combat system is by far the worst I have seen in any game period at least when it comes to melee and complexity. It is nothing but click click click, press 1 or 2, click c…
  • Originally posted by Respit Nice read. Especially refreshing since the term "carebear" or any of the other "labels" that are thrown never came up. I can't help but associate those labels as a sign of bias.   Yeah I admit I use that term sometime…
