Age of Conan

I was searching threads, and I found out that Failcom is making another game... "The Secret World"

Why would they attempt to make another game, with Age of Conan in the condition it is... Bad idea...

That's my opinion though

I'm fully convinced after playing AoC for nearly two months that FunCom is run by a bunch of trained monkeys...and not well trained ones at that.

Old news.. move along.

  I believe it was Mr. P.T. Barnum that coined the phrase .....

"There's a sucker born every minute."

  My point?  Funcom will create another game, hype the shit out of it like they did with AoC and release it in the condition they released both Anarchy Online and Age of Conan.  They will do quite well ....and why?

  Ask Mr. Barnum .....

Who cares what Funcom is working on? I know for a fact that I will never buy another Funcom product again. Not because of the current state of AoC but because of the lies and deciet that surrounded AoC's release.

While I agree with this, taking people off the other game would do no good.  Doing so would actually show them to be completely retarded monkeys rather than poorly trained monkeys.

Im not sure what you guys expected here at launch.

Perfection?

Anyone who has played an mmo for the last 5 years  KNOWS that the product in question is NEVER finished.I dont P2P for the game to be perfect i play it for ongoing content.

If i wanted a perfect game it certainly is not an online game.A perfect game is 1 that is offline and never crashes and does not (most of the time) require a internet connection.

I dont understand how you can expect at launch anything except a playable game at bare minimum.

What i find even more amusing is that now WarHammer online is expected to release  with fewer features than what was being developed.I suppose that when they saw the sales total of 700k or so it turned into a panic to get it out.Who knows its not as if they will admit it.

As far as Conan is concerned FC has the background to make this a success.Its shown that with its other game AO it can do this.Already they are showing initiative with 1nce a week updates.

Im not a fanboi trust me there are things with AoC that i do not like.I think part of the problem is hype and expectation.

Warhammer will launch soon with fewer features than expected.I guess the same thing will happen then.I dont know but ive learned to lower my expectations at any mmo release.

difference is:  Mythic is announcing what wont be in the game for launch

Funcom never made any similar announcements for what -wont -be in AOC for release

(unless you want to count Funcom announcing "no DX10" buried in a Press Release for CE SOLD OUT  -- 2 days before release)

Funcom could have announced that PVP Blood Money got dropped / delayed

on topic,

many companies develop many games -- its no big deal

Of course people expect a full game for the full price. It is a sad affair when this is not the case.

Not features, just 4 areas and 4 classes. You can still City siege, and you can still PvP at all tiers in the lands currently without capital cities. Features are still there, just less variety.
