Anyone still playing?

[Ctuchik]

thinking about resubbing here but wanted to check how much better/worse it is since mast i played. think the last patch i played on were those mega necromancer changes. could be one or two patches after that, cant remember exactly.

how is that lvl 55+ zone? how far will that take me and is there enough quests now to get me all the way to cap now or is it still huge gaps?

They are shutting down 30 servers i heard, so the remaining should be nice and crowded

[Ctuchik]

well unfortunately i'm not playing on a pvp server, and quite frankly arent all that interested in doing so.

 

[Shad]

i resubbed and did a char copy from the Rp server to nornal PvE server i can say that i don't regret it at all.


Easy to get group and get into the heat

Latest reports are at 100.000 subscribers ..... the game - or rather Funcom - seems to be going down the drain.

Whats wrong with 100 000 subscribers? Sure its not the same number as WoW but thats still a perfectly respectable number.

Not when you are having financial problems and expected a (much) higher number of subscriptions.
Have nothing to do with WoW numbers - but everything to do with money.

It's like saying i have £100k in my bank account but it's not as much as Bill Gates.

You dont have to be Bill to succeed, but currently Funcom doesn't have a pot to piss in. I expect to see a buyout or redundancy notice any day now.

No you don't have to be Bill, but if you wanted to be Bill and currently have economical problems, then getting less then you planned/budgeted with isn't going to help you out much.
100.000 is a problem because AoC seem to needs more. Not because WoW has 11.mill
It is just WoW envy which gets everybody to throw the "but not everybody has to be WoW" line around when questioning the subscription numbers as sustainable.

 

[Ctuchik]

for those interested (lol)

FunCom just released a test version of DX10 onto live servers.

 

[mooSe_]

There is a free trial of AoC now for anyone interested in seeing how the game has developed. FREE 7 DAY TRIAL - Age Of Conan
For people who use XFire there is also an AoC competition on atm. Gaming Simplified

 

[Starman]

Does that mean you resubbed Ctuchik?

 

[Ctuchik]

yes, i did :<


oh and patch 1.05 is on test server aswell, and its a BIG one. some pretty kickass stuff going on there.

RESUB!

well i gave Fury a tery last night, and it was pretty much what i suspected. lvl 20+ running around in white sands griefing ppl that wants to level up.

the pve is just about up to par with what they said it would be at release. but the pvp is still well away from managing to claw its way above pathetic

The griefing part is fun after all it is a pvp game wether you kill someone or they kill you it makes it sweeter for revenge.

sure, but unless ur playing a ranger (that most of the griefers do) ur not gonna kill them anything.

a crossbow specced ranger can at lvl 20 do about 600 damage on their finishers.

and thats about the total health of most classes at that level.

Ah so class balance still sucks dick then?

I was going to check this game out again but if rangers can still 1-2 shot me i don't think i'll bother.

 

[Ctuchik]

it gets better 60+ when every other class catch up but before then Rangers rule supreme most of the time.

/edit: with bear shamans catching up faster then the others. and probably overtaking the ranger at 50:ish.

 

[Aada]

I am playing on Crom and pleasently suprised how well things are in the game at the moment.

Would say to anyone who quit at the release period to give it another go.

 

[mooSe_]

I'm still not sure if I want to sub to this game now and my trial ends tomorow.
Maybe I'll wait and see if I win any sub time from that xfire competition.

Hehe, if Aada says this game is decent now then trust me it is ..

I been thinking of returning to conan when dx10 is implemented and they done something with world pvp, atm that seems to be pritty much where it was when I left a year ago or so.

Would be so nice to have like more organized or large scale fights with structures and "teams" in the real world rather then in some retarded instanced battleground or in the laggsource zone.

So you can get some daoc rvr grp pvp/rvr going, think thats what this game needs. Random PKing is just pointless I mean once ur rank 5 after 40k gank kills then what?

/edit

Seems like I have to rerole to a bearshaman though since PoM is laughable still

Just started a trial acc and within 10 mins I was bored. Won't say any more till i get to the pvp ... but I have strong doubts already..

Soz but I could only stomach like three hours of the game before i wanted to vomit. Reminds me some of ddo and tbh i cba. Sorry if you don't agree but for me = fail and thus delete from my system...

I've been enjoying having a dabble on it recently.

I got to lvl 20 on Aquilliona rp pvp quite easily but switched accross to crom as I only really want to play pve wise for now

I really like the blood splatters when you critcally kill something

[Ctuchik]

saw on their forums they announced the expansion. and the little i found on it it actually looks promising. as in they wont do a Blizzard and make all the old content useless.

 

[klasa]

I'm actually plaing it again. Such a relief after WAR. Must say AoC feels fresh and fun.

 

[Ctuchik]

anyone know if they done something to improve the minigames?

last i played it it was pretty messy with alot of spawn camping.
