    The problem is that nobody believes these "Amazing experience" threads. Until they actually release the game and make it generally available I don't believe a single one of them.

    You are either employees or paid to write this stuff to publicise the game.

    As I said, when they finally release it and anybody can buy and login to see for themselves I'll believe some of the hype but for now at least this is just marketing hype about great this game is.

    Well first off you have to have one. That would be a problem for you! Cant cancel what you do not own. (BUT I DO HAZ IT AN IT SUCKZZ!!1111! <- incoming)

     

     

    Ok than can you do me a favor, if it's not too much trouble? Go into your account management and see if there is a "Cancel" feature.

    { Mod Delete }

     

    If Aventurine is going to charge you a recuring fee of $15 after the initial free month runs out, they need to provide a way to cancel your subscription before the free month runs out for people wanting to avoid this charge.

    Or are you trying to tell me that after the 30 days are up, you'll have to re-enter your CC info again to subscribe?



     

     

     

    I cant see anyone cansaling this game this is the best game ever made . But could use even more skills and a no end game!

     

     

    I don't want anyone to cancel, I just want to know if Aventurine is providing a way for their paying customers to cancel their subscription. Whether or not this is a great game has nothing to do with my question.

    That's your instant gratification right there! Screw games forcing you with repetitive quests so you just can have a few seconds of action after weeks of grinding.

    PvP is not a carrot that should be dangled in front of players. it should happen instantly. Also heavily PvE focused MMOs brought all the wrong crowd in the MMO world. They shouldn't been playing MMOs in the first place. Just some random single player and have the irc open.

     Btw imbant, I'm glad your having a great time ingame, but don't say things like "graphics are second only to AoCs."
    That is troll bait and you know it.  So even if that is what you truely think, comon man-- be smart and omit it.
     

     

    This. I was actually about ready to sign up until I read that portion of his post - how much do you get paid to write these things? :p J/k about that  - but it's clear to me that even if Darkfall was slightly below your expectations you probably would not be able to swallow your pride and admit it (and I'm not saying it is or isn't - because I wouldn't know having not played the game).

     

    I know 10 games off the top of my head that have better graphics than Darkfall. I think even EQ1 with the Luclin revamp has better or equal graphics to Darkfall. When I first showed my brother a video of someone fighting a skeleton - EQ first came to mind as well.

     

    I hope I can get past the graphics (not too much of a big deal) and the animations (maybe a deal breaker for me personally) if I decide to play. Darkfall probably has a ton of very fun and enjoyable features - but c'mon - be realistic here and stop spewing out lies like "graphics are second only to AoCs."

    Iam not in the game right now but i was a betatester and the game is great , its a game you can play for a long time because skill gos up slow and decays if you dont use a skill that you already learned. But i think it should take 2 years and maybe have 1 skill mastered this will keep ppl going and going everyday.

     

    Also the skill in the game is just 1 thing to help you the rest is your movement and fps skill.

    I had 10 guys on me and they never killed me ,  one of them was on a mount and i wanted that mount and i only was on the game for 3 days ,  And guess what i had that guy on the mount down to half his health. WOW i loved it . If i had some food or potions i think i would of kill that guy but would of never been able to loot him because of all his buddys.

     Funny how hard people try to squash these type of threads by starting hate threads

  • wireded21wireded21 Member UncommonPosts: 131

    Not hate threads, funny how most of the "amazing experience" threads have no real substance or content that they can be caught out on... funny how they are all posted by new or relatively new mmorpg forum accounts.

    Get back to work tasos and stop trolling the forums with "amazing" threads...

    Ahahhah some guys are so funny here, i'm from Italy, if you want the data of my friends in the game i can privide you all the nicknames you want (or try to go on mmorpgitalia and see).

    Today there are in game 6000 players, and there is no lag...

    ahahah Tasos and new accounts on mmorpg.com, this very funny, i think you have some serious brain problems.....

    Fine. Then stop posting complete crap about "amazing graphics" that are second to only AoC. Lol.

     

    Every game has its weaknesses - and Darkfall's are obviously its sound/animation/overall graphics (although not nearly as bad as the animations portion of it).

     

    If you don't want for people to question you and if you want people to actually believe anything you say - then why would you even put that laughable statement in your post? I have no problem with anything else you said in your post - but that line was comical and jumped off the page at me.

    He's trying to establish his opinion as fact when the rest of his post is supposed to be facts about the game. Doesn't work imbant, no one cares about your biased fanbot opinions. Just describe the game...well, actually, we don't need you to because we already have some unbiased reviews, thank God.

    Are any of you trolls able to answer Heartless's question about the ability to cancel? Do any of you have the ability to opperate outside of a yes man mentality when it comes to a question of darkfall that isn't praising the game or the crappy company that runs it? All he asked was is there an ability to cancel your acct. Yes or no answer.

     Not trying to de-rail the topic, but i disagree with this totally.

    PvP can be balanced, the problem is that most developers don't do it...look at EvE for example, even a carebear is PvP at all times but as long as they stay in high-sec they're safe move out of it and it's on.

    Not a bad PvP system in my opinion but besides that having different servers for PvP, RP, PvE, and PvP/PvE can work but when you have a larger population on the PvE servers (which is usually the case) why stick around on the rest? so you can beat-up on the same people over and over? no thanks.

    PvE brining in the wrong crowd is also false, MMO's became mainstream, they started becoming popular and that draws in a lot of people both good and bad, to lump in every PvE player into the 'wrong crowd' catergory is absurd...i know many PvE only players that are mature, fun to be around and more importantaly know how to enjoy themselves in-game.

    I'm sure there is. It'd be impossible not to have such a feature - it's a dumb question.

    However, he'd be better off selling it for about about  $100-$200 on one of those MMO auction sites, which seems to be the only place to get it at the moment.

    The reason I ask is because I heard an ugly rumor that there is no official way to cancel outside of putting a stop payment on the whole thing. Since I don't have a paying account with Aventurine, I cannot do this myself.

    I know it sounds like a dumb question but would someone with an active account humor me please and see if there is a "cancel subscription" button anywhere on the account management screen?

    Normal and Darkfall don't go in the same sentence. As I said in another  thread. Dancing between disasters is what AV do best. Next week I am sure will have some more Tasos generated popcorn.

    Also as for the billing.. I believe they were manually inputting details in global collect, meaning the CC details were as plaintext in some inbetween point in greece ? There a fantastic thread on here somewhere. So next week CC details hacked maybe ?

    When AV stop being rank amatuers I might consider this game in all seriousness. Oh and they update there fantastic website with a truen in game feature list. Sorry white/grey border peoples .. time to move on.

    No doubt.  I mean, the OP is gloating about killing some schmucks by outnumbering them.  WOW, what a hero.  Lemme go buy an account right because this game really sounds elite!

     

    Heh ok kiddo,

    I wasn't gloating about killing anyone, i was just sharing a fun experience.  This is a forum, people  do like to share their experiences from games we have fun in....not all of us are only here to play forum walls and put down everyone like you.

    We outnumbred them by 2, and they were red players (players who have been killing their own race)...so what would you have us do mr noble...tell 2 of our guys to sit this fight out?  Sorry take your carebear viewpoint elsewhere as this is DF and we would not receive that kind of treatment from those red players if they outnumbered us.

     

    And bruticus...stop trolling, its getting sad.  Im not trying to spin anything as fact...im saying my opinion and saying that it is an opinion shared by many people, which it is, thats a fact.  Also a fact that others have a different opinion.

    Im just glad I have an awsome mmo to play while you just get to play forum wars.

    Already have had numerous experiences within the first day of "real" gameplay.  While exploring an area not explored in beta, we came across a city clanstone whose marker was comming out of a mountain (meaning it was in a mountain).  After some searching, we discovered that you could enter from going underwater in the lake and swimming underneath it, or going to the top of the mountain and dropping in through a waterfall.  The graphics of this game are second only to AoC, and it isnt even close.  The animations still need love, but never have we had so much fun exploring.  They did an amazing job with the design of the world.
     
    We came across a few red players attacking some allies in sort of a ruined temple type structure where some mobs have overtaken (may have been a quest area but not positive as we didnt have a quest).  We had about 5 in our group on vent, and decided to crouch walk to the side of this large wall and wait.  When we were all ready, we all drew back our bows (Except for one guy who for some reason is anti bow and arrow so he used mana missle) and turned the corner and took out one of the red players in one round of arrows.  Obviously he was already low on health.  We got a second round of arrows/missle off on another red player before they realized that we were here and what was going on.  We ended up taking the second target down, while the other one escaped.  We claimed our reward off of their corpses, as well as an alignment boost for killing red players, and were happy to find about 600 gold between then (assumed that they had got that over other players) a whistle (200g) and a crap ton of arrows.
     
    So thats just two stories from day one.  Other mmos i remember killing 10 boars etc for days minus WAR where i was able to "pvp" in instances which was a little more fun, so being able to get some end game experience in on day 1 was very fun.
     
    Anyways now that the "omg lol DF phail" nonsense is over, the game can now really start to shine and we hope that the developers solve their billing/account issues so they can focus on more content asap and balancing some of the stuff in game that needs it.

    First Sync is not totally gone, and than is far from be a good game with all probs it has right now.

    They never tested with many player,they never tested most of the "end game" and in this moment this game has many more problems than pros.

    Sorry, but  i was too stupid to waste 50$ for a this game.

    !WE ARE PAYING FOR AN OPEN BETA!

    Wait 1-2 months before buying it, don't be fool to trust fanboys!

  • FluteFlute Member UncommonPosts: 455

    All I can say is that I really hope they sort out their billing and get Darkfall where it should be. If in doubt, use a short-life low balance credit card, just in case.

    As for all those people who talk about PvP and ballance, well ... you're trapped in the WoW mindset.  Sandbox PvP should never be balanced by the Devs - just like real life, fights are not always evenly matched.  The real fun starts when players learn how to win despite the odds, and as anyone who follows EVE knows, players collectively are always more creative than the Devs can be!

    I still want to know who thought up using an unarmed mining capital ship to smuggle kill-on-sight pirates into safe space so they could unleash havoc

    Grafhics are maybe second to AoC but becouse world is one big huge world not small maps like AoC Darkfall grafhics are superior overall becouse it give a real immersive feel to it, a living breathing world.

    Games played:AC1-Darktide'99-2000-AC2-Darktide/dawnsong2003-2005,Lineage2-2005-2006 and now Darkfall-2009.....
    In between WoW few months AoC few months and some f2p also all very short few weeks.
