Oh tearantor thats clever I'm impressed.. really.
I'm sure as riviting as it is to kill naked toons and "freshies" the game is probably thriving with conflict.
But the truth of the matter is and Roak posted it in the other thread... outside of Ice island there is hardly anything.. so while LoD may live in a blissful existance of moderately more pvp.. the other 90% of the game world is dying fast.
You don't think so when The Mercs are posting about how "its the most fun we've had in months" doing a simple city raid where people RESPONDED to it wearing armor?? lol. That says alot... you know what else says alot is the fact the Mercs are having to openly challenge LoD to a 8vs8... how borring must the game be to arrange this kind of thing?
Sounds similar to what happend in SB.. Yes sieges still happend and people still showed up to defend.. but outside of that the world was empty, borring and everyone quit. Its happening in DF.. the only difference is SB condenced servers.. DF is "expanding".. the EU server is dying... and will completely die once new servers are luanched.
But hey you'll have the US server until you're playing on the korean server for the next 3 years right obs??
you gotta stay off the forums man, your getting the wrong ideas from them.
the mercs are having more fun now because the last few months they were bound to a red city, now they see the fun in owning a city since they just took one.
they challenge everyone on the server to 8v8's because they, like others, cant really hack it on open pvp. i hope you dont base anything off of post with "themercs" in the thread, they are stuck in this neverending loop where, if they win its because they were outnumbered and if they lose it was because they were outnumbered, and the only way they feel they are still dominate if if they challenge other guilds in fair even fights..
kind of like queing up for bg's?
and lol at ice island having the most action, dont know where u heard that. center of agon has the most action, any island you go to you see tons of people, yes you got your noobs laying around starter cities. tho it usually is easy alot of times you go against 3:1 odds or more, and unlike most mmo's your not going to just take hits from them not worrying about dying. you can still die to a decent group of noobs.
as far as gear goes its tricky. most have lots of gear, its really doesnt matter anymore, its easy to get. the thing merc's dont realize is when ur dueling/skilling up in your city your usually naked so you dont break your armor. Most little guilds send 5 or 6 men into the city to kill a macro'er then just run to the next city.
by the time u suit up they are long gone. so most people dont bother. but most, if not all open pvp/raids/sieges people are wearing armor
and the world is open, and it does get a little tiring at times trying to find people outside of their cities, but at the same time it makes traveling work. with keen eyes and a good sense of awareness you can make it to any city mounted. i believe any more people would just make it so you needed a zerg to travel in this game.
i dont know who you are, but you were lod so i will give respect where respect is due, but since i got here i see you give out information about darkfall that amounts to reading clan discussion and general discussion on the df boards. and being a long term follower of mmos you should already know its the carebears and the shitty players with the loudest voices.
theres a reason you dont see many post about this game is the best game ever.... the people are busy playing it.
i think you can agree the game is a blast if these same people that you have played with for years in game is telling you they love this game.
I dont know wtf you are talking about Agon having action, LOL. As someone bound to mainland and pvps nightly, I can tell you that Agon is a GHOSTLAND. The only places you find action is clan cities. You have to go rape all their macroers and crafters then wait a good 10-15 minutes of fighting off the naked zerg before any geared people recall in to defend their oh-so-ever important clan city. Cairn is worse than Agon. Most action I've found in the game is up on Ice or around Yssam
The mercs and afghans are always having fun because their characters have been maxed out for the first month of the game. They operate with a huge advantgage over the standard player who didnt get to exploit their stats to 100 or skill up weaponmasteries, magic, rigor/ignore pain, etc to max level. Not whinning or crying about people with beefed up characters, because I dont really care. They end up dead anyways :P
I agree totally about the gear though. Especially after the recent announement of the NA server release.
And IMO DFO is the a good game. It still has a fuck ton of issues. The grind needs to be solved. They need to hire a fucking SALES TEAM to sell their product to fix the population problem. They need to make PvE more lucrative (loot table has needed to be revisited for a long time now). They need to fix the time you spend travelling from one place to another, that means adding some sort of mass transit (gate travel) and making a recall runes useful..seriously one charge? lol?
Anyways, I am anxious for NA server and lower ping. Really put the hurt on these chobs.
