Agon's NA-1 political scene is shaping up

The alliances on NA-1 are already very clear, some bigger than others but all are trying to get their grasp on strategic political landmarks.

Based on the political map, the only subcontinent that has not been unified yet is Rubiyat, it seems that the BFTA have a better positioning to move and take over Rubi, yet their numbers probably don't allow that yet as they have only about 250. BFTA has the strong Call to Arms at their doorsteps, if they do choose…  More

It comes as no surprise that a delay occurred for the US release.  LINK

" It was just determined that the Darkfall expansion will go live on Tuesday July 7th.

This short delay pushes back the N. American launch to Monday July 13th.

More information on the Darkfall expansion on Monday July 6th and on the N. American launch shortly after.

Thank you,
The Darkfall Team "

I don't really understand the idea behind giving patch notes (if that is what they are intending) only one day before launching s…  More

If you haven't had a chance to read the interview yet, it is posted here.  I'll run through each of the various Questions and their respective answers:

Q's in Yellow, A's in Blue

1) PVE. Many folks on the forum claim that the PVE progression curve is to steep. Are you happy with the challenge level of PVE in Darkfall? Do you have any upcoming changes in PVE or Crafting you can discuss?

PvE will change a lot with the new expansion that is coming in a few days. We have completely re-balanced all the …  More

Ah, another day, another let down from Aventurine.  For those that read my last article that centered around the so-called "Update" from Aventurine will be glad to know that there are STILL many questions left unanswered. 

 What are the limits + restrictions to transferring 3 months after the US release?What will the cost be?Why do you fail so much at PR Tasos?As it stands right now, Aventurine is lined up to force Americans who wish to REROLL onto the US server, another $50.00 regardless if the…  More

It seems a bit ironic that the day I post a blog relating to a lack of PR, AV goes ahead and posts a news update.  Either way my other information still stands.

If you haven't had a chance to read the "new" information (aka; smokescreen of info) check this   link out.

We all saw it coming, in one way or another.  Darkfall was THE PvP-MMO coming out, it's EXTREMELY long creation and development process gave us all a hint of hope that the game would be completed and that this creation would become a huge success among an oversaturated (PvE) populaton of MMOs.

We were given "food" in the form of promises from AV that they planned on implementing "A - Z", unfortunately we only got A, B, and C. D through Z seem to have fallen by the wayside.  The forums @ DFO and a…  More

AV have succumbed to whiners, done a Blizz on us and dumbed the game down, made the combat slower.

I was going to write a post comparing DF to NeoCron, as i felt there were many similarities even if their themes were drastically different. DF had within it MMOFPSRPG elements, any comparisons with the daddy of that subgenre could not be avoided.

NC also felt the effect of drastically changing PVP with the 2.2 update, where it lost a substantial amount of its player base by making two types of chara…  More

---------------------------------------------------------------

Being that time of year again, I like many others have been busy with Exams and taking a break from the all nighters in Agon. My DF time has suffered for this, but I have not quit, yet.

For me I see the fabled few who have GB2WoW because they can't handle the game, either in its current form or in the abstract, being a minority in those …  More

It's a bit interesting that this question is being asked.  Is DFO living or dieing at the moment?  Did Aventurine really get the ability to improve their servers in a profound manner, allowing a lot more players to log on at once?  OR, is the player-base diminishing in a manner that allows AV to do a small upgrade and then announce it as one that is far greater?

Our typical bloggers haven't written anything in quite some time.  The following is in no way an attack; just an observation:

I've been hearing a variety of things about Darkfall.  Apparently, maxing your stats, which the developers rather expected to be a passive thing that you just 'let happen' as you played the game has - to no one else's surprise - become a requirement if you want to crush the carebear scrubs beneath your feet and hear the lamentations of their women and so forth.  And of course, if a quick fix exploit is found, it shall be used with great abandon.  And so I present what I would describe as a deeply visually disturbing 'pile' of - mostly male - players using what I'm told is/was the Earthquake route to 100 Rigour.…  More
