Age Of Conan MMORPG

    So, I can't find a thread on the forums about it

    Is anyone going to play it? I've pre-ordered my copy and can't wait. According to the official site it's the best selling MMO before release, that's some serious hype. It seems allot of people really like the setting and gameplay or are just really bored of WoW

    Anyway, it's being released on Friday in the EU and already out in the USA.

    Gah time wasting minefield! If I'm going into an MMORPG again its probably gonna be another Blizzard game, and only if many people I know play it on a relaxed level.

    I'm so happy to be over WoW, don't wanna put more fuel on that fire anytime soon.

    - OFF TOPIC -

    The only thing I really enjoy in wow is PVP (both BGs and Arena) or maybe 10-mans or 5-man heroics. The way I play now is log on, look for specific BG premade or instance with my guild and if none, run 30 minutes of dailies to earn gold and LOG THE HELL OFF for the day. While in general WoW is a horribly grinding time suck, there is something bizarrely fun about 10-man raiding with my guild which is mostly married couples in 20s and 30s who all play together. I swear they'd be swingers if they met in real life but thinking about the average WoW gamer and anything sexual in the same sentence...

    - ON TOPIC -

    I am more interested in the Warhammer's mmo, as I just don't find the Conan universe that exciting. I should at least try it just to stay abreast of competing games out there. :roll: But at this point i feel like if I'm going to spend serious time grinding, I'll probably just do it in WotLK expansion whenever that comes out.

    AOC does indeed look like it could very well be the next big MMO! I will most certainly try it out at some point, but that is probably going to be in a few months when the worst rush on the game and the servers has worn off.

    Indeed, it's the same price as I pay for all my MMO's

    I've decided to hold off attempting to play the game for a week, hopefully they will fix most of the performance and login issues I'm not in a race to get to lvl 80 before most players.

    Chris: CrazyMAC, Gorion, Jennifer and I are playing on Crom as well You should hit us up. We're currently trying starting a guild open for all mapcore members as well as invited outsiders, obviously ;o

    Nothing is certain yet, however we have created a test guild of sorts, until everyone get settled and we figure out what to do from there.

    I play as Autumn. It'd be rude for me to just hand the rest out, so I suggest you hit them up for it

    I'm thinking of getting this game... It looks pretty damn cool.Though I can't seem to find many reviews of it online :S

    It's because most reviewers won't review mmo's before it's been out a while. To get a full impression. Which is rather fair, to be honest. Most launches are shit, this one included. It'd be unfair to judge a game that's expected to last for at least five more years by its initial 5 days.

    Must say though, so far I'm really loving it

    i think the pve gets old really fast, it's the same get x number of y items for person z. the graphics are the best ive seen in a mmo yet, the setting and atmosphere likewise. i am looking forward to the pvp part.

    First 20 levels blew my mind. An actual story, Characters i cared about. Impressive how much of it was voiced as well. I know this wont carry on but if the story stays to the same level of perfection i'll be hooked.

    Aye the quests do get boring when it's collecting shit...but there only so many twists you can put on the same thing. MMO need to fill a life time while a FPS only (apparently) needs to last 5-6 hours.

    Village building looks interesting and as everyone has said the graphics (for an mmo) are awesome.

    I'm glad it's a proper 18 rated game as well, and i don't mean just the blood and guts. Some of the characters who have been voiced acting have had me almost joke on my drink with there sexual innuendo.

    Anyway cool game. But as Mazy said i'm going to be playing a casual rate....no more 40 man raids WoW style.

    An mmo to finally replace Ultima Online perhaps, woohoo. WoW so incredibly average after 2 months

    What is this village building you speak of?

    i thought tortage got boring after the first 10 levels. i had a huge problem finding quests when i was level 17-18 and so was stuck doing nothing pretty much. i much prefer stygia to aquilonia as well. there is no denying of captain nut and the cock handler posse.

    also i'm not sure if it's a bug, but characters after tortage dont seem to.. speak?
