wow that game seems REALLY bad read this http://forums.darkfallonline.com/showthread.php?t=267849So I canceled my sub. 11/11/09, so what is new? How much of this is still true??
My prob. with the game were mostly.
1. Slow skill progression
2. Hard to locate towns on map
3. The UI was a bit messy
Hmmm, good source that lots of jerks are in the game.
yeah just reading about how, if your a new player and you get killed by vets of the game 24/7 and basicly they say that all you can do is deal with it or leave really makes me not want to play the game at all
I love games with PvP like DFO, but the sucky thing is jerks like this just make the game frustrating for others. So in turn they can't enjoy it,
Darkfall has a guild for newbies that supposedly allows player to learn the game in relative peace. They post a graduate list now and then. Grads then looks for guilds. I played for a short time in a good guild with friends. Problem is the game lacks content. Its a small company that wanted to address player concerns but lacked the manpower to implement them quickly. Also I couldnt stand the sound. You heard every noise for miles. That and the clumsy UI and lack of content were deal breakers.
Darkfall can be alot of fun, but it is a grind-fest. They were supposed to introduce offline-skilling, like EvE, but I haven't seen it in the patchnotes quite yet. Darkfall is definitely better than it was at launch, but the grind keeps me away.
Now, if Mortal Online can actually get some content in-game and not just be all about PvP like it is atm, it will actually be a pretty fun game and way better than DF. Mortal handles murderers(reds) alot better than DF and there isn't a grind like their is in DF either. As soon as they get the monster pack in mortal and some extra stuff, i'm going to start playing that again. But I wouldn't bother until then.
MO has been out for a few months.
It's not nearly as bad bug wise, but there are still bugs. If they can get some more sand in the sandbox, I can put up with some bugs.
Not that I'm aware of. MMORPG was doing a series on it, but I can't find it. I wouldn't personally bother with the game though, for at least another month or two, or until the monster pack is released.
