Darkfall Free Expansion and Na Server

    On the American server: The American server will launch on July 7th. Characters from the European server can be cloned and moved without their possessions 3 months after the American launch. Certain restrictions and charges will apply, to be announced at a later date. In the meanwhile if you want to play on the American server at launch you need to buy the American Darkfall client. More information on the American server will be available in a few days.

    Darkfall will launch a massive free expansion update the first week of July, something that the Darkfall team has been working on for a while now. This expansion includes major new features and major content, PvE, and PvP updates.

    In the last few patches we had implemented several major optimizations making it possible to support even larger battles and sieges and more concurrent users than ever before. As a result, massive battles now run smoother than ever. We’ve seen some of the largest and the highest frequency of massive battles this past month, which has helped us find even more ways to optimize the Darkfall experience.

    As a result of these optimizations we’ve also been able to keep sales open most of the time. We’re still being careful because Darkfall resubscription rates remain very high even though this is a time for exams and/or vacations. It’s still difficult to buy Darkfall but we hope that after the US servers have launched it will be easier for new players to learn about and to buy Darkfall.

    To that effect, a new site is coming, along with new forums for Darkfall players only. These forums will be readable by the public and only players with active accounts will be able to post in them. The current public forums will remain active for anyone to post in, but moderation will be stronger. This because we’re getting people from other communities with the sole intention of disrupting our forums. The Darkfall community has always been a source of good feedback, constructive criticism, and inspiration for the Darkfall developers and we'll keep it that way by doing away with the non-constructive elements.

    Our next major patch will be included in the Darkfall expansion the first week of July.

    Thank you for reading

    Yeah, I'll probably come back for a bit - if only to try it. In fact I think my sub is still active for another week or so...

    Mortal online preoders start on monday so I don't think I'll be going back to Darkfall. Never really lived up to it's expectations for me. I'll check the forums though to see what the expansion consists of.

    Probably stuff that was supposed to be in for release aswell as other long overdue bugfixes.
    It might be too little too late. :o

    Looks interesting but I think I'll wait and see when and if they actually implement those features. My sub ran out just over a week ago so I won't be signing up again for a while (if ever).

    Those features look good, but I doubt il re sub.The character animations were just awful and melee combat is just spamming mouse click.
