Age of Conan

AoC is nothing but a gank fest.

I am a huge Conan robet.Howard fan and know the lore top to bottom and all I have to say is AoC is a huge gank fest. Days go by when I want to play and when I log in someone is swinging at me.--All this and on an RP server too boot! There is no difference in rules from an RP server to a full PvP server toons all round here.

This game sucks because I cant get the chance to explorer or even simlpy talk to people. They just start swinging all the fracking time. I killed my fair share but to be honest, I dont play games to get fustrated so guse who?

Age of Conan sucks balls.

You cant have my stuff as I'm back to playing a real gank game like L2.

See ya dont wana be ya AoC.

play on a PvE server.

This is what happens with FFA PvP servers on a LEVEL based game. It's just stupid. No matter how good you are, you can't WIN against someone past a few levels higher than you. So, you just get raped.

And 80 of them levels too. I'm sure Funcom will realize pretty quickly how bad it is, hopefully they can either A) Put in some rulesets or B) Make a seperate PvP server with a ruleset that gives limited FFA, not complete FFA. Also all the instancing, in addition to the level thing but...we all know that by now .

They better pay attention to what poorly implemented PvP did to POTBS. I'm sure they will add some artificial protections eventually. Devs who want to survive usually do.

I'm not sure if it depends what server you are on, but so far (touch wood) I've only experienced ganking twice. I have to admit one of the times was an idiot spawn camping on white sands.  Mostly I've only been playing in the Tortage area, been trying out different classes.  I'm on the EU server Wildsoul (PvP) and most people are going about they business completing quests etc. Mostly I have found alot of people being helpful, joining in if you take on to many mobs etc, even in the pvp areas.

That is why they have PvE servers. DOH! I've tried PvP servers on other games and just didn't enjoy it because unless your capped it's nothing but a gankfest. I wanna pvp on my terms, not on the lvl 50 going around and ruining the day of all the level 23's.

And from the looks of it, there will be plenty of pvping going on on the PvE servers once more and more people hit 80.

ARE there any pve servers?   Is it possible to level up safely before you go PVP?

If it's nothing but full pvp with idiots then, this game's dead already. 

 Edit:  PVP servs' are mandatory that you need to be in a guild to level & survive, by the way.  Unwritten rule.

um...you should all know by now that open pvp is always going to be that way. REAL pvpers could care less about getting ganked, only crybabies complain about it. you chose to play pvp for a reason and getting ganked or ganking someone is all fair game. Just f...king adapt to it and play like a man or woman, and people say this game is meant for the "mature crowd" get over it, jesus. if your corpse get camped just go somewhere esle for a while, or make friends to take revenge. there really is no point in getting mad, and if you do just blame your own god damn self because you dont expect to get ganked in an open pvp game. Personally open pvp is fine with me, you always gotta expect to be ganked some point in your life playing. Open PvP is not meant to be fair, and that should be common sense. We cant teach common sense, you gotta learn it for yourself.
