welcome to the www.idarkfallgold.com/blog, nice to meet you

one man in the darkfall forum says that

The one reason I didn’t buy this game after beta.

people don’t like darkfall? let us see it ..

[Disclaimer]
I’m only posting this thread to get an answer to a very specific question. Where the discussion goes afterwards isn’t my concern. I won’t bother you to stay on topic or not to bash me for the fact that it may seem silly that this is the deciding factor on whether or not I will buy this game. I am confident that no matter the quality of the responses they will inevitably contain the information I seek.
[/Disclaimer]

There are a lot of things I was dissapointed with in Beta. However there was only one thing that stopped me from buying and enjoying this game. There was no true support for widescreen monitors, it was displaying the same 4:3 field of view but cropped to fit on the wider screen.

I couldn’t stand playing it in full screen because of this, it actually made me ill, so I played in windowed mode. Ultimately I couldn’t stand staring at a 4:3 window on my 16:10 monitor either, so I didn’t buy it.

As time goes by I still think about all the aspects of the game I do enjoy, and I want to play it more and more, but although I feel more conflicted now I’m still not going to buy it unless this is fixed.

So I ask you forumfall, does this game have proper widescreen support yet?

[appeal to common sense]
Before someone decides to be a moron and claim that the FoV is limited for competitive reasons, please consider that competitive gaming leagues use widescreen as standard nowadays. If someone on a 4:3 monitor (like seriously who still uses those?) felt they were at a disadvantage then they should be given the option to squish their display to show a widescreen field of view, problem solved.

the pvp game is so good and so great, the darkfall is a pvp game , do you like it .

ont man in the forum says he don’t like darkfall , let us see it

Does anyone else feel like the combat in Darkfall although first person and full loot is just too twichy and unrealistic. I watched a few videos and of Ky KY who is pretty much one if not the best pvpers in Darkfall currently. I fought against him once I think. My issue with Darkfall is that the combat is so unrealisitic. So much of the game is about realism that creates immersion like full loot and long travel times and first person combat (mostly). I just can’t get over the fact people sprint back and fourth and jump 50 times while doing backwards spins and sprint for a relatively long time.

In real combat that would be impossible combined with exhaustion.

I don’t know if you can make combat movement slower and keep it fun because there are skills involved in dodging by what ever means. I think with smart and creative devs you can.

What I am trying to say is that I am very disappointed that the skill involved in Darkfall pvp is contingent on extreme twitchy combat and constant movement.

I don’t hate Ky Ky and others for being really good at the game by mastering the technique to win in Darkfall pvp but I hate the technique needed to do just that.

I have really yet to see a MMO that takes collision detection to a place were it should be and that is formations. Clogging passage ways and such is alright DF/WAr ect. But were are these huge battles with formations and lines with different combination of troops. I would love to see that really mean something. I been out of the game for like 1 and 1/2 months so maybe this has changed a lot.

thank you
