Although I am not a fan of AoC in fact I think its garbage, I have to say, that so called article is the biggest load of crap I have ever read.  Full of complete lies.

There is no wayyyyyy!!! Funcom requires 500k monthly subscribers just to break even, it's complete fabrication.

No MMO company in their right mind would project 500k monthly subscribers as an achiveable target and if they NEED 500k just to break even they wouldn't even launch the game.

Sorry I hate AoC as much as the next man, but that article is just rubbish and written by a total moron and WoW fanbois.

completely agree, i know it has its problems...but, this article is a bunch of made up bullshit. he made up the statistics, and percentages completely. so bogus.

Holy sh@t ! I tought it was bad but not like that.  70k left

I have a bad feeling Funcom might be in big trouble now.

If you believe this you might as well believe anything. hehe.

yea its done on a WoW fan site called WoWriot.com. If this is real would stick my wang in a fire ant nest.

The article is complete BS and is written by a WoW fanboi who is afraid AOC's large subscriber numbers will force the inevitable WoW server consolidation sooner rather than later.

I love the little pie chart!  In case you didn't know, 80% of all statistics are made up right on the spot.

That should tell you something.

HEH what a joke first the guy trashes the game and throws out a bunch of unsubstantiated numbers, then does a total turn atround and says the game is going to dominate WoW. I give this blog a rating of 1 on the credibility scale. I like how he says how he cannot even find the game on the shelf now. Come on down to my town dude, Best Buy and Walmart have plenty of copies.

"Following a supposedly successful launch, Funcom's Age of Conan has begun to crumble as the opening-month hype wears off and the criticisms increase. Today's extremely demanding MMO players are accustomed to a very high standard of gameplay and polish that seems just out of reach for Funcom's new title, and the rapidly declining user base is evidence that this experiment has failed."

LOL! This site is call WOWRIOT...WOW...do you get it? Its from some guys who are ...WOW! Fanbois! Of course they have to say badly about AoC!

I haven't seen it linked, though I admit I didn't thumb through all of the pages of this thread, but that guy that posted that, posted an updated review that was pretty much the complete opposite.

To me this makes both reviews two sides of a coin and neither reliable in the least bit.  Any credibility he gained from this first he lost and received negative credibility for his flip-flop updated review.

He's like a 12 year old politician or something....

The baffling absurdity in both reviews coming from two opposite angles is almost unbelievable.

It's almost like he went to a wow fanboi and got some information, then went to an AoC fanboi and got some completely different information.  Neither of which holds any water IMO.
