Okay, three months.
Thats 90 days. All MMORPGs have their growing pains, 3 months is nothing.
You can't look at WoW and just say "I want my game to be that polished out of the gate." I've seen plenty of threads where folks talked about how bad WoW was during its first year.
I can totally understand that there are people who don't like AoC. But posting another  thread about the "End" of a major MMORPG after only 3 months seems excessive.

WoW's server issues were all fixed within 3 months, Blizzard gave out tons of free time and apologized a lot. LoTRO had much more added in content in 3 months. Fuck, even Vanguard was doing better once SOE got its hands on it (maybe not 3 months, closer to 4?)

3 months is a lot of time to where they haven't really fixed A SINGLE FUCKING IMPORTANT THING. I don't give a shit if these mobs are naked now or if this guy's spelling was corrected. The PvP patch or PvP levels that were supposed to be IN LAUNCH are still not here. The memory leak which they've claimed to "cure" 3 times now IS WORSE THEN EVER. Stats, while they kinda-sorta work, are still fucking useless. Sieges still lag the fuck out of people, Raid content is still bugged beyond belief and you really can not raid past T1 (if that) without encountering bugs in which they make the raid near impossible.

*inhales deeply*

They still have not added in any content from levels 50-80. The only thing they did was update Black Castle (who gives a fuck about a lvl 30 place) and updated the Pyramid (lvl 30, who cares?). They have no clue about class balance, as the Dark Templars are still fucking useless and the one shoting is extreme. Even the most simple of issues to fix (a loot table issue in which players could get upwards of 4-5 epics an hour) took Funcom 3 days to hotfix, allowing players to destroy the already shattered economy with cheap epics.

Mounted combat is a buggy piece of shit that is not near what they hyped, in fact if you try and fight on your mount you're a retard because you actually gimp yourself for doing it.

And aside from all of this there are still numerous graphical issues which I am amazed got past the alpha of the game.

Oh, and DX10 which was supposed to be in game at launch is still not in game and IIRC is slated for a 2009 release. They actually had the balls to put on the back of the game "Optimized for DX10" when they are clearly lying.

And speaking of that, the minimum/recommended specs are bull.

 

That is all that is wrong with the game and what they have not fixed. Even the female attack speed they ended up making a worse mess of by making males attack slower, nerfing it instead of just fixing the problem.

Funcom has had plenty of time and the only thing they can do is put out lowbie content. You know why? Because guess what reviewers are going to play first!

Phew, that was a hell of a rant. :D

 

A hell of a rant. Some bad mouth language here and there.

But all in all. You just spoke the truth about the state of this bad soap called Age of Conan with the worst actor of all time, Funcom!

And oh. Nice finding. Anyone remember Funcom's bull excuse statement about the DX10 fiasco back in may to try silence the customers who found out DX10 wasn't there and that they would showcase it at Leipzig this month to be released shortly after? Prosponed to 2009! In other words: Dropped!

Have a nice day.

Got a source for this?

It was nice to find these forums. This is a great site! Glad I found it.

On topic...AoC was one of the worst gaming experiences I've ever had. I was continually shocked at how little FunCom communicated with their players. And I'm not even refering to developers posting on the forums occasionally, although that would have been nice. I'm talking about bare-bones basic stuff.

I think the thing that drove me the most insane was their lack of patch information. When I left--which was two weeks after I started--players were having to create a list of changes for all of FunCom's patches. It boggled my mind. Well, that and the fact that they obviously were doing NO testing for their patches.

I'd had no experience with FunCom before AoC and I intend to have no further experience with them ever again. They appeared to me to be either woefully incompetent or arrogantly indifferent.

AoC is my first and last expeience with Funcom. I wouldn't play another game made by them if they paid me to play it.

Are we seeing a trend yet?  You can be critical without being immature and vulgar.  You can criticize without making troll attacks. 

 

 

Very well, how about one of mine -- this one?

Immature?  No.

Vulgar? No.

Critical? Yes

Closed?  Within the hour.

I did not receive a ticket, but it was the beginning of the end for me playing Age of Conan.  Performance getting worse with every patch didn't help either.

Here!

Have you guys seen the latest XFire and Funcom stock numbers? Still dropping!

I logged on Bane (Which had a lower pop to begin with) and it just seemed dead. No chat in /ooc, and not one soul in Khemi.

LMAO,  so everyones rockin the avatar now. I didn't wanna "rip" and steal the avatar, but I'll join in now.

For great justice!!!!

Guys stop stealing my avatar XD and stay on topic ;)

The official forums actually feel kind of dead now, "a bit too silent" it feels, I think today's server outage in the EU had something to do with it

US forums is still trucking and full of cancellation posts, but I feel they're being left there longer, seems the mods have retreated somewhat

Sorry man but when I get home I am changing my avatar to yours. You have started a revolution and you should be proud.

*Thread off topic*

We have been very casual about threads going off topic allot today, please don't abuse this.

Thank you

My original post no longer stands.

The part about forums being mayhem that is - it looks like the forums are now dead too. It seems both the fanboys and the whiners have packed up their things and left the forum. Perhaps the fanboys are just keeping their heads down while the whiners have just stopped trying to get a rise out of people.

Even the mods seem more hands off, we're seeing more threads that openly dismiss the game, talk about impending death, etc. - This is a far cry from what it was like only a week ago, where any suggestion that the game might be in trouble was promptly deleted.

What happened? I think fanboy and whiner alike are on the "minute of silence" part of their eulogy to this dead game, but time will tell in the next few days.

the thread title made me laugh, its so dramatic. but your right though, this game is bleeding out bad. and to your most recent post about the mods being "hands off" and allowing some bashing of the game its because if they deleted every thread that did this there would be no new posts.

Lol, check this post... lots of people banned without any visible reason :)

Needles to say, thread is now closed.

yeah I noticed that, it's blanket random bans, there are people who aren't even logging on who are getting banned

Might be an automated banning system gone haywire.

Ah yeah one of the top selling MMOs is full of fail because you said so, uh huh.
