AoC is about to hit another iceberg, the Warhammer Iceberg LOL.

The Preview weekend is awesome and the game is more polished on the closed beta client we are runnning that Conan is currently. Didnt have a single client crash during 14 hours of play which is very refreshing after all the bugs in AoC and no lag spikes.

This is going to force Funcom to get their act together or else from what we have seen this weekend with Mythic. I can't wait for the oben beta but I still have 2 days on the preview so long Conan.

Let the fanboi flames begin I'm loggin into Warhammer ( a real game).

If you'd reread your own post, you'd see they already have.

The future of AoC is to be a smallish niche game with a loyal base of fans. I believe there will eventually be server merges and some serious changes to the direction the game is going (any direction at all?). They will do what they have to to remain viable, but it will never become a AAA title like it should have been with a competent company behind it.

WAR, on the other hand will become very large, will be adding servers if anything. The game is just managed far far better than FC could ever hope to achieve. WAR itself, IMO so far is already so much better than AoC after 3-4 months live is.

However, the real difference is Mythic are communicative and actually appear to give a damn about their customers and their own reputation. WAR will have problems for absolute sure, the difference again, will be that it looks like Mythic will address them, hell, even tell the players what's going on!

Once WAR is live, we'll see. My bet is that the FC devs will be sadly looking at WAR though and thinking "That could have been our huge success."

R.I.P Funcom, hope you will rest with your lies.

AoC will have no future. The game is already dead, and why play AoC when you can play WAR?

BS. I think AoC is a terrible game developed and managed by a completely inept company, but the game is not dead. It's not going to die, and saying so is just a bitter drive-by.

You want the game to die, you hate FC and wish they pay, but sorry, the game will survive. They still have to release in Russia, China, etc I believe, even though I doubt foreign gamers are any more accepting of crap than we are. It will still garner subs though, because as we see, there is a percentage of people in NA that think this is a good game, surely there will be in the foreign markets as well.

there is always the spawn ganking crowd, they love it.
