Rise of Agon is the Darkfall Online experience that you have always wanted. Join thousands of players in this epic sandbox MMO adventure now! Game Client Updates. With fast and slow versions for each rank. The following weapons have gone through our initial changes for this patch. How is Darkfall: Rise of Agon looking? New dawn is completely making a new game within darkfall, changing the combat entirely, how gear works and trying to do.
I've been playing Darkfall a few months it's pretty good. Joined shortly before the sea fortress expansion and now have my character at a decent fighting level (50 STR/VIT, just getting mastery wep skills and access to elemental magic). You really can still be effective in fights even as a newbie, with a decent weapon you can hurt people, but just have to avoid situations where you are going mano-a-mano with a stronger character or good player.
Like other guys here have said, you really don't get curbstomped much as a newbie, there's always a few idiots gunning for newbies but they are pests in general and if it's any consolation they get beat down a lot by vets who really dislike these types of players. If you are getting killed a lot you are probably just in too high traffic an area, try changing newbie towns (every race has 5 or so) and moving to different hunting grounds. While hunting near a few highways I could get killed every 20-30 minutes, but if I ran 10 minutes over to another town and selected a slightly secluded spawn I'd see no one for hours.
From what I hear, macroing has been cut down, GMs patrol the map and ban people, I rarely see anyone doing it, only leaving your character auto-swimming overnight for HP gains (not much, but better than nothing especially for newbs) is OK, you only get kicked if a GM catches you, if you try and macro a spell while doing that you get a ban.
I think the devs want to roll out another expansion or two in 2010 before they really gear up marketing (free trials, box edition), they've been talking about one every 4 months. There's still a lot of rough edges to the game that they want to polish up. Here is a link to a recent community Q&A with 2010 plans: http://www.mmorpg.com/blogs/Paragus1/012010/5564_Darkfall-Community-QA-with-Aventurine
Population seems to be growing though, word must be getting out that Darkfall is a decent game.
The PvP is smooth, there's no game breaking bugs or imbalances. The PvE is decent, nothing special, but it's not awful. If you are looking for a MMOFPS, with a high degree of skill required, and a lot of persistent clan-based elements, this is a very good choice. Could use more polish but the important thing is the core of the game is solid, and very playable.
Definitely join a guild ASAP. Joining NEW may not be such a great idea, the NEW guild is protected by powerful neighbouring clans, but it is still a magnet for anyone who wants to become some kind of griefer superstar. You are much better off joining one of the many newbie friendly guilds that has a holding, a solid core of veterans, they'll take care of you since they are motivated by the prospect of you becoming a loyal and dedicated long term member. A guild will also give you easy access to advice, high level crafters for gear, and group events to break up any character grinding tedium you experience. If you are an Orc for example, a guild like Black Ork Assassins is medium sized, isn't involved in any mega wars (still gets local PvP, you want some after all), has a port city bordering the NPC ork lands, and has a core of vets that keep nearby Orc NPC cities clear of griefer wannabees.

The patch is downloading really slow. Keeps going from 0kb for second to around 50kb, stays mostly at 0. MY internet connection is fine I'm able to use websites and anything else internet related. Anyone else having this issue? It's like the issue few years ago how people who had verizon as their internet provider were having this same issue.
Darkfall Patch Download Is Slow

- Same issue here. Previous patch (One path ends) had the same issue. then they fixed it so you think they would have kept a note on that, especially prior to expansion launch. Yes? No! It is the same issue over, and over, and over again! Ugh so frustrating..Diablo 2 lod patch download 1.13d. The ultimate source of patches & addons for Diablo II: Lord of Destruction.

Contents[show] Changes New Features Ignoring players is now saved between sessions of the game. The 1.13d patch for Diablo: Lord of Destruction. This is Blizzard's 1.13d patch for Diablo 2: Lord of Destruction. The patch is available for download from the 1st download link. This version includes all previous fixes so there is no need to download the previous patches.Feels like that 80% of players have no issue playing while the rest of us can't even login!
- The same problem is here, most of time client is waiting with 0 KB/s with rare flashes to ~30-50 KB/s, and the client still needs to download 5669 files. It's almost the dead end, I never had such slow download of new patches before. There may be two possible reasons:1) Extremely large number of players (let's suppose, hundreds of thousands) want to rush into new content and the patching server is overcrowded. In such case, it's a common problem around the world and nothing can be done right now on our side.2) There is a serious issue with servers in datacenter or with routing to the specific parts of the world (some subnets or series of IP addresses). In theory, VPN connection can help in the last case, but need to know the location(s) or country without this issue or conduct some experiments with VPN, changing the location and checking the speed.Unfortunately I don't have now the VPN subscription which would allow to download about 1.7 Gb patch, so I prefer to wait and simply keep the GW2 client in the background for many hours or maybe some days and check the progress time to time. Anyway, the developers should have predicted such situation and begin the pre-patching of clients some days ago with most of new data. So only a small patch which makes available the access to already pre-downloaded content would be required in the last minutes before the start. This is a known practice in some other MMOs. Will our developers be more wise next time? Only the time will show..P.S. Yes, the game is in theory playable, but with lot of data still missed, the gameplay may be quite poor because of large delays needed to download any new object. So I prefer to have all files ready before the start.
- Update. I forgot to mention I have been able to play because my client got past the 'PLAYABLE' point on the download bar on the launcher. Got to the first map and crashed a few times but was unable to get to the second map for a story instance. Finished downloading the patch/patches this morning before 6. Looks like lower player population time helped. Was getting couple hundred kb per second mostly and up to 1 M a second.
- edited September 23, 2017Having same issues. (64 bit Mac Client). Also having to close and re-open the client. Tried to leave it overnight but when I woke up, it was still stuck at relatively the same amount of files then when I left it, meaning the client gave up at some point even trying.After 12 hours of trying now I'm still at 5,943 files to go. I can of course keep opening and closing the client (roughly every 4mb downloaded it stops), but when you need both sleep and have a job to go to, it's hardly ideal. Please fix this ArenaNet.
- edited September 23, 2017Yeah very frustrating. Although my friend in Vancouver BC downloaded the game with no issues last night. So I'm not sure what's going on there. Hopefully they resolve this issue soon.EDIT to add- his speeds were going at 10mb/sec for the duration of the download.
- Apparently I have found and fixed the download problem (in my particular case).Long time, maybe several months, if not a year ago I changed the command line in the GW2 shortcut to this:
'C:Program Files (x86)Guild Wars 2Gw2-64.exe' -assetsrv 174.35.71.9:80
and all the time since that my client was using an address 174.35.71.9 as the asset server. The reason to manually add this server was due to similar problems with download; as for exact address, I found it among different suggestions on the support forum (its previous version). This worked almost perfectly, all the updates to beta weekends have been downloaded well, until yesterday, when download speed unexpectedly became very low.
I simply removed the addition in the command line:
'C:Program Files (x86)Guild Wars 2Gw2-64.exe'
and a miracle happened — the download speed returned to my usual 2MB/s. All client data are already updated.
If you have used the same solution with manual assetsrv parameter before, try to do the same.It seems that American and European (my usual) datacenters work differently now. American server gives the patch with full speed, but European doesn't. - edited September 24, 2017I was able to download the complete PoF update on Friday, no problems, but then today's patch just stalls at 0%. Assassin creed unity patch download. No downloading, no speed displayed, no files remaining, it just sits there for hours on end doing nothing. It's remarkably similar to the problems I had a couple of months ago after the big balance patch. It took days on end to even get the bar to move, and most of the time it felt like luck whether it was going to work or not. Please fix whatever bug was introduced in the latest patch!!EDIT: After some internet research I found a dev post from 2 years ago, and it has helped me get it downloading again.

-assetsrv 62.154.232.187:80
If that doesn’t work, try
-assetsrv 151.249.90.138:80
You can do this by right clicking on your GW2 Shortcut and adding the above text to your Target field. For example your target should look like this:
“C:Program Files (x86)Guild Wars 2Gw2.exe” -assetsrv 62.154.232.187:80
Let me know if that works
