The KGB Oracle Forums The KGB Great Hall of History (ARCHIVE) Darkfall Members Forum Vent DFO Meeting 9/10 EST - 6/7PST - Today 2/8/09

Meeting went well, just ask ppl in vent for the skinny. Not a huge decision making meeting, just wanted to touch base with people.

Meetings like this arent an "event" so much in my mind, as an ad-hoc forum to go over things, share info, etc. There will be more meetings, and anyone can feel free to drop in and chat with me at any time.

A lot of people are on sunday in KGB, which is enough for a good discussion and enough ppl to get any new info dissementated.

Most important thing, other than general game discussion was me going over the vent guidelines, which are posted up here as well.

Sorry to all who couldnt attend, but the saying "dont put off until tommorow , what you can do today" applied here.

Can someone please post the "skinny" in vent? Some of us can't get into vent where we're currently located...

The skinny? Basically the mtg. went down just as Derid related. No guild shaping plans laid, simply a discussion. Before I had to log, topics ranged from:

1) Are we happy with the current location of our city? Do we want to establish in the same locale for release? - Seemed the consensus was yes, the location was good and we will try to grab it at release.

2) What skills have you developed on your beta toon? Are they working well? - Everything is a grind x50 to level but that is expected in a long-term sandbox world. Frustration with the magic system was again expressed and rumors of final uberness should one struggle through the grind were shared.

3) The question of possible allies was discussed. Who have we had positive interactions with? Negative? - Nothing really decided on that one at this time.

4) Will we enforce a racial faction? All race composition? - Again, nothing final but no solid restrictions discussed unless the game mechanics impose them. It was suggested that we stick with Alfar and human due to the proximity of their racial homeland starting points.

5) General talk - At this point I left but most we talking of what they liked, didn't like and hopes for changes before release. Again, nothing guild impacting.

What is the general guild opinion on the state of the beta?

I think most agree beta should be extended at least another 30-60 days in order to ensure a better product is released to the public.

Location is more easily accessible if we role Alfar but does not require such...

hmm thanks for the info man

Thanks for the notes guys.

Im (slowly) unpacking here in Boulder and hope to get my real system set up soon. The vent meetings are great ideas.

Human land is also pretty close, almost as close as alfar.. in fact the clantowns base aesthetic are all human, so unless something comes up with as of yet unimplemented racial-type-stuff from the devs, human will also be an option for us.
