Age of Conan

Who here is going to be playing AoC when it comes out?

I played in the PVP beta last weekend and the game is fucking SICK.

If anyone else is playing we should start up a bluelight PVP/PK guild!

I played for a lil while the other week.. it looks great but i dont know if itll hold up against WoW

I have preordered it. Played most MMOs since Merdian 59.

im in! im quitting both wow and d2 for this blizzard treats ppl like shit and wow aint what it used to be back in the 40man raid days.

 

[JerryBlunted]

i'd quit wow, but after all the time and effort to make my ridiculous holy paladin into my guild's top healer i just don't have it in me to level/gear another character in any game

^^ Leveling/gearing in WoW is not the only way it has to be.

WoW is completely dependent on raiding and the pretend PvP it has.

Seriously, you have no idea how much you're missing out on in terms of MMO experience by playing WoW. Not that there's anything better out at the moment but hopefully either AoC or Warhammer will figure it out.

I can't wait for another MMO that doesn't "instance" anything, has shitloads of useful gear for all level ranges that drops in regular dungeon runs and from rare spawns, and real PvP with penalties for dying like losing money or one item or whatever.


Oh and coming from an MMO veteran if you're interested in AoC I'd suggest waiting about a month after release and then reading some forums dedicated to it. This will give you the best review of the game and prevent you from buying a completely worthless game. There have been a lot of MMO launches in the past where the game is practically unplayable due to all the bugs and it has no content past level 20, etc. Avoid getting screwed by purchasing one of these half finished games by letting someone else buy it first.

All MMOs launch with lots of bugs but there is a difference between the ones where people keep logging back in for those 5 minutes of playing before they crash and the ones where people decide to simply never login again. You can look for that difference in the forums.

I'll be playing AoC from the early release :D starting up a bluelight PvP/PK guild would be great, just name the server and I'll roll there.

Anyone going to pick this up. MMORPG.

Thinking on trying to get into it. I missed the whole 'Warcraft' thing so I might give this a shot.

 

[Swerlz]

Its pretty good..

though alpha testing the new expansion(wrath of the lich king) for WoW.. i see it still topping the MMO world

if WoW isnt youre thing.. Conan will make up for it and some

I've been playing it a little.. my name on there is Unexist .. It's pretty good but boring at times if you're playing alone. It's an MMO after all

Lots of the older WoW crowd went to AoC. Warcraft has gone to the kiddies. I rerolled and leveled a character and it just sucks now. If you enjoy an older crowd for a guild then AoC has a lot of the old WoW guilds.

AoC is pretty fun, needs a bit more polish but in a few months will be much much better.
On deathwhisper, name is pudaan, look me up sometime!
