Hey Guys,


     Little update. I have family in so I'm not playing as much as I would like to. I probably won't be until next week. Anyways, I am really enjoying Age Of Conan. The story line is alot of fun. Sure, it may get boring to some after level 20, I'm only level 6. So far though, it's really enjoyable. Questing is so enjoyable on Age Of Conan. Goes into theatre mode and really takes you into the game and makes you want to quest more. I don't quest much in other games but questing in this game is fun. Really enjoying it so far. =)

I could not agree more. AoC combat is the funnest combat of any MMO game.

I guess that is a matter of opinion.

If they had delivered what was promised. See this video about 2 minutes and 50 secs in

www.youtube.com/watch

it would have been awesome. Too bad that by release it is nothing more than a macroable series of standard combos. LoTRO's Warden and Runekeepers classes offers much more skill and challenge than any of AoC's classes judging from my experiance

If you like that style of questing you should try LoTRO. Those cinematic storyline quests continue all the way to max lvl. They even have some new instanced session quests where you play as another character from the storyline temporarily. The other night I had to figure out how to play as a lvl 60 dwarf in the last stand of Balin's dwarves in Moria from the books. Took me 5 tries to figure that one out but it was so much fun I could do it over and over.

Lately all I've been playing is CSS and haven't gotten into an actual game in along time. I'm still waiting for Face Of Mankind to come back. I use to be a big player on Wow, Warhammer, and use to play everquest and requiem.


I'm looking for something fresh. Should I give Age of Conan a try? I heard it's really improved now. Are the servers crowded? Please give me your opinion on Age Of Conan or any game you suggest I play that's around 50.00. Thanks!

 

1 more question, what kind of computer do you need for Age Of Conan?


 

Aoc seems to be rounding out fairly but there still isn't much content unless you are looking for really robust pvp as well I suggest LOTRO it is highly polished awesome community as well and an actual game world instead of a few nice looking closets like aoc zones

Well if you dont like to PvP then LOTRO is really good choice otherwise ...

As for macroable part well you are off as with macros you imidiatlly shoot yourself in the foot each miss is less damage so whoever use it will always loose against skilled player. One double tap dogging and you can say goodbye to your combo.

As for the old system that was mentioned well i was in beta and the major problem was you really could not take the control of combos as they would trigger based on your hits there was no combo reset or something in the long run it would not work and on that combo system people would really use macros and even with negative damage would be still easier.

In beta lots of players supported other way then funcom choose to do.
We wanted to have 1 combo button that would put you in combo mode and then you do the flow as that would give you some kind of control.

To be honest with you, I hated LOTRO. The movement in the game didn't feel comfortable. I felt out of place when I played it and hated I wasted money buying it. =/


Alright, So guys little update again. I joined a guild and am now BOOGYING. I jumped on yesterday and went from 22 to 30 last night with 9 hours playtime yesterday, LOL. I'm loving this game. This is the 1st time playing a game that I've enjoyed since wow open beta (have tried over 20 since then). Finally, a game where it feels different. A game based off of something. The game just feel s good. With bloody scenes to make you feel like you're playing Requiem to doing a Fatality with a skill as the last shot. The fatalities in the game are so cool. I'm loving the questing. You can tell before 20 that they took more time working on the questing. The NPC's talk before 20, then after 20 they do here and there. There are so many quests, though.


I can say before AOC I never enjoyed Questing. Now, I'm looking for quests. I'm level 30 with SO MANY more quests to do. I hit level 29 last night, went and turned in around 8 quests and hit 30 right after hitting 29, lol. Everyone in the guild was like holy shit that was fast, haha. It was funny. I'm loving it.


It's a breath of fresh air and I'll keep updating as I level. Now level 30 and going to keep going. Can't wait to ride my mammoth at 40. Learning so much day to day. I wonder how Darkfall will be in January-February. I'm ready for it as well. AOC feels real. That's what I like about it. It's a change, a good change.

Threre is a big population boom happeneing atm (Lots of new players) ...+ they are merging server soon so pop will not be a problem for the next Year.

 

I just Bought this game at the end of 2008 , Loged in And i really feel im loving this game. Iv not felt this way in a long long time.

 

Ok so its mature rating so players are not shy. But at least everyones functional.  My biggess probleme in the last 500 million Mmos iv played is 17 and yougher playerss just really not being up to par (especially in pvp) and frustrating the crap out of me.  (thus I have no fun and cancel)

 

Yes some yough players still get on here but its a much more limited #.  

 

You dont get the anus retentive folks eather, the ones that  are so snub and think there so importent , and above others that will go out of there way to correct your spelling. you know thos Univercity trash that look down at everyone. Good ridence. (wish that was true)

 

 

I Did not buy this game at launch knowing (had a feeling) it would bust in some way. I did have to deal with a few bugs the moment i loged on but found ways to fix them myself fairly quickly.

 

The first 20 lvl are a challenge. Really well made, and is worth much more then the 40$ i payed for the game in my opinion. I bought the game with intention to play 30 days with it and cancel. Looking like im going to stay though HA!!!!

So today I went from 30-38. I eperienced my first powerleveling of the game, lol. Some guildies decided to take me to east ruins to kill 74's (where alot of pvp was going on, always pvp going on in this game). Wow, I went from 30 to 36 in NO TIME, an hour maybe? It was amazing. I'm so glad I'm in a good guild that's very active on the tyranny server and has ventrilo. I'm loving it.  The fact that you can get power-leveled makes the game even more casual. It's a great game for Adults too cause not many kids play it because it's not about Shiny armor, oh it's just...fun. Well off to bed, been on AOC for 6 hours, lol.


Got work tomorrow but plan on being 45-50 by Sunday. Friend of mine in our guild went from 31 yesterday to 50 today, he's been on off and on. But, the fact that he could get 31-50 so fast...wow....that's insane.

A feature isn't promised for the game if it doesn't last in beta. If you believe other wise then every game in existence didn't deliever what it promised. What would of been just as easy would be to do your normal swings and as new combos emerged you got the option to fire them by pressing the next sequence which would be shown just like the current DDR prompt, or have the combo button be on the back end instead of pressing it. As far as what the beta testers asked for, FC gave that basically, but tuned it to make easier for WoWers to transition into the game

Currently playing Rift
Darkfall - Xpiher Duminous (NA) retired

If you're tired of grinding don't buy it. If you'd like to grind so more with nice graphics, then buy it.
