Mirco was happy to point out that he has made sure that the standard tanking-training and agro management tactics used in most MMOs won’t be effective in Darkfall.
(Hurrah! No WOW style mob fights)

The MOB will even remember you. Monster species will remember players who have attacked them and increase their aggression level against them even if their race isn't a prime target for the particular monster. For example, some goblins won’t attack orks, but they will add specific orks to their kill-on-sight lists and remember them for a while.
(not exactly ground breaking, DAOC and WOW had mob alignment that you could gain or lose but it's nice to see that they mentioned "for a while" meaning if you become their enemy it's not permanent.

Seriously though, when I hear them talking about the great amount of detail they put into DF it helps to remind me that they're taking so long to release the game not because it's vaporware but because it just has so many of the features we always expected in MMO's. And i'm not just talking about the above mentioned MOB AI, but referring to all the features they've mentioned. They really do seem to be creating a UO/SB hybrid -done right-.

Nice...... Mob's calling for help ... sweet

Just couldnt decided which design you would want so I ordered all 3. Whats the address I mail it to so you get it over in the sandtrap you got your golfballs stuck in?

The dolphine one obviously... they're the only other animal said to have sex for pleasure! And boy do I love'em for it.

Actually, one other animal does:

The Bonobo; a relative of the chimpanzees.

When startled, or when finding a new place to settle for the day, the apes will gather in various groups for a gigantic orgy, swapping between same and opposite sex partners. They've been known to have sex dozens of times a day. For reference, I learned this in one of my anthropology classes in college.

Dam, this post started out really good, then Crim protected himself with where he learned this information. I tip my hat to you, sir.
