Darkfall Update

[Tbone]

So the first massive wave of testers got invites. As you can tell, we were not included. Beta leaks are starting to pour in, though, so at least we are getting information.

According to most of the things I have read, including Tasos' announcement, Beta invites will continue to be sent out on a daily basis in what seems to be a completely random draw. In other words, any day we could be let in.

Clan invites seem to be being  sent to clan leaders with an average of 20 keys for the leaders to pass out. If I get these, I'll be distributing them based on who has been actively helping out with our Darkfall content (recruitment, flood the gates op, etc.). If I have any left over after that initial handout, it will be first come first serve.

Be looking for an update soon with possibly a link to download Darkfall. The game takes a while to patch and install, so it could save us a few days if we are able to download the 8 gigs of data before getting a key. The community seems to be working on a torrent as well as one of our own.

If you haven't done so, sign up and register for everything Darkfall and FA related to make sure you are ready. There's another announcement titled "Getting Ready for Darkfall" that has a checklist for you.

Finally, please help out with Recruitment 2.0. We just need a few more riddles and then I'll be looking for some voice work. It would be great if we could have this go life sometime next week. Over the coming months we will continue to build and build the challenge on a need-to basis.

There's still LOTS to do even though we aren't quite in the game yet. Jump on TS, participate on our Darkfall threads, and do more research. Have you made a character bio yet? Are you familiar with the layout of the land in Darkfall? Have a guide for FFA PvP survival? Do these things now because hopefully by this time next week we'll be too busy testing the game!

1. Sould I make my character bio on the Darkfall forums, or here? I wouldn't know how to go about doing it here.

2. There's a guide for FFA PvP survival? I want one!

[Tbone]

1. There's a section of the forums called "Biography" under "Darkfall". Don't you have access to it? I think that would be a good place to start.

2. If you make one there will be.

[Anonymous]

Can the BIO mention the FA in a VAGUE manner?   *asking to tie in a cool story with the bio*

Ok, thanks Tbone.

[Tbone]

Three waves of invites so far. I don't know who is causing us such bad karma but fix it! I guess at least there have been three waves to miss.

According to Tasos it is a purely automated system. So no way of knowing for sure.

[likwidtek]

well according to his update today they're going to be adding more every day until they are at capacity.

[Tbone]

Meaning there are several more chances for us to miss out! Lol... Lik weren't you the one that was "meh darkfall". Stupid irony...

[likwidtek]

let me clarify I prolly won't get to play this game first hand, I get to just shoulder surf.  But yeah, I know.
