Good move Funcom. The only way to keep AOC alive, expand on another continent, where nobody has heard about your game or your company. It is regretable that you could not succeed here in the USA or with your product AOC. It is too bad that you will live on via an expansion in another part of the world, screwing more folks out of their money by advertising a mountain and delivering a molehill.

Yes it is agood move indeed their only move to keep the topic off the intial failure of AOC.

Clench all you want, it's still going in.

You seem to be confused. The expansion IS a new continent....it's not being released on a new continent.

Try knowing what you are talking about before making posts like these.

*hands you a towel to wipe the crazy foam off your mouth*  Rabies?

I was hoping they'd have a few other changes like maybe allowing Stygian DTs, and perhaps add another class.  However, I still might try this expac.

Just because you are unique does not mean you are special

Just a guess, but I think he means having an Asian themed expansion to try to sell the game in Asia.

Actually, Funcom are saying in the "dagblad" artical, that they are planning to release in Korea with this expansion. That said, the OP is a trollpost, yearning for attention.

The yearning is only for the game I paid for and my time and money back that I spent chasing an exprience never delivered. Now they have the balls and gaul to release an expansion when they can't even get people to come back to AOC as it is for free? 

WOW low blow FC.

Being unhappy with a game you generally like, is a bitch. I know that. But, it still doesn't change the fact the your OP was written as a pure flamebait...

I could give a nut suck about what you think my post was about. I don't care. Don't care. Flame it all you like, AOC has been a massive failure and what they are doing to keep it afloat is release an expansion when they should have been fixing the fucking game. Working on other mmos when they should have been fixing the fucking game. Marketing lies, and bs from start to finish when they should have been FIXING THE FUCKING GAME!

Well ofc you care, this is why you posted on an open forum for ppl to see your views, if you didn't care you'd have said nothing.

While it's a sad state of affairs that Funcom have decided to release an expansion it does at least tell us one thing, the game is still being funded with a future in mind and not left to rot.

My whole guild left AoC after expecting great things from Funcom, heck we even had one of the devs in our guild from our inception back in 2001 for the waited release of SWG, he was just as disappointed with how things turned out as the rest of us, but he still held out a glimmer of hope that the game could turn itself around, when who knows though.

Fortunately for me AoC is just a game and not something that keeps me awake at nights thinking how they "screwed me over", plenty of other games out there to occupy my time with and take my money.

Caps are cruise control for cool. I really wish they had fixed the game in a timely manner and not lied to customers before and after launch. The fact that they continue to mis-priortize just about everything having to do with AOC means I'm never buying a Funcom product or service again and encouraging other people daily for until I feel like not doing it, to do the same.

So yeah do I care what you think about my post not at all. ;)

Have a nice day.

Hmm ?

Someone seems a little upset, but by the logic of AoC being a huge failure.. I guess the only MMO that is good is World of Warcraft.

Currently playing - Age of Conan
Previous games - SWG, World of Warcraft, ShadowBane, Warhammer, Darkfall, Tons more.

Hehe.  After playing the entire closed beta experience, I threw up my hands and quit (even though I had purchased the AoC game box for $5 from a friend who quit) when FunCom shut down the beta server in June of last year.

Meanwhile, I monitored the game's progress and, a few months ago, I decided to go back with a 3 months subscription.  I haven't regretted that decision.  I think Morrison's team has done a great job in polishing the game and it's clear that today, AoC is the release quality product we'd hoped for a year ago.

Lord Bonezy, serving whine with his cheese, simply parrots year-old complaints -- the boy needs to let go of the bitterness that many shared a year ago but now, today, is a small club of former players who remain in a rut regarding AoC.

As one who knows AoC well (warts and all), it's clear to me that FunCom has done an outstanding job since Morrison took over.  My only complaint is that they are really *slow* in doing so LOL.  But hey, it's certainly clear, as another poster has said here, that FunCom has not given up on this game!

I'd also like to debunk comments and impressions that the game is dead.  Far from it.  I've characters on two servers (one PvP, one PvE) and I'm here to tell you that there's plenty of people playing AoC.

I, for one, was plenty excited about AoC's new expansion and there's *plenty* of people who feel the same way -- see for yourself of the Godslayer link in this article. 

To be fair, I have to add that I was pretty disgusted with the last paragraph of FunCom's release about the expansion.  The reality of life is that AoC, when released, was a smoking pile of sh!t and I am being kind here.  But that shouldn't be how today's AoC is judged -- and many, like me, are excited about what Morrison & Co. are doing with the game and what they have planned for it's future.

All this post has done is created an avenue for trolling. Locking this down.
