Hey guys, I got aoc a few weeks ago and am loving it so far. I really think the game gets alot of bad comments due to the fact that many people cant play the game at it's full glory due to system limations. The graphics are amazing, combat is great, my guild is wicked and the quests are fun! I see so many people say "once you hit 50 it goes downhill" , that never happened to me. Take alook at some screens I took of the game: ------------------------------ PC STATS: |

Whatever floats your boat, go with it. Wasn't the game for me though. "Just because you aren't paying doesn't mean it's not PTW." - Amaranthar |

he's just trying to wind you up by firing off some standardized comments from the pre patch 2.0 time.. You know PvP was different then, and some lvl 80 people had little to do. Now ,that is fixed with PvP content and hefty Siege gaming (this one is a blast.. have only got time to do two though).. |

Like you, I also started playing a couple weeks ago. I find the game addictive and fun to play.
I'm really starting to dislike this website for alll the negative (not towards AOC but in general) views.
Seems some people have nothing better to do with their time than sit on forums a post BS.

It's a sweet game, i'm having a great time and that's the point of this thread. Many people, myself included left at lvl 50 when quests stopped occuring and ingame content stops. You will see what we mean. The first couple dozen levels are fun.....well...you'll see what we mean when you get there. |

He will experience the 13 new quests in E.M. Plus many enhanced others. They are working on it and he is going to get the tail end.

I don't get it. Did you even read the post that started this thred ? The point is, I am past 50 and STILL loving the game. The forums seem to be full of people like yourself that make it almost impossible to say something good about a great game. Maybe AOC was not for you, but that wont be the same for everyone. ------------------------------ PC STATS: |

Glad to see you're having fun, I am as well. Don't worry about the negative comments bro, it's your opinion that matters in the end. If you enjoy it keep doing so. For every minute you are angry , you lose 60 seconds of happiness."-Emerson If you can't argue the point don't say anything at all. |

Sorry...You wont ever get it....They will continue to bash until you give up posting
What server do you play on? I'm probably seriously outnumbered, but I love the game. |

Im in the 50's right now and theres actually lots of quests, I havent gotten to a point yet were I didnt have at least a few local quests in my journal. I guess those extra quests they added in must have made a big difference, and they also added voice overs to a lot of the quest givers in Eiglophians. Sorry to the people that had to go through this stage before these quests were implemented though. |

Same here, I went back to AoC after WAR was such a let down for me, and I'm having a lot of fun. Thanks for sharing OP. |

Same here Both me (Conqueror 55) and my fiend (Guardian 80 and two other alts in mid 40's) have never had these content issues people are talking about. I am on my first alt in mid 50' and my questlog is packed as well as I have to drop every quest that keep popping up on every corner.. I am not saying that initial critics were wrong on end game content.. Of course lack of PvP benefits(in the early version) were dissapointing some people, but I think the whole content thing just got blown way out of proportions... The biggest issue was OOM error's in my oppinion which now have been completely eradicated from the game. |

I did have 3 boring levels around 55, that's true. Theres also a few more slow around 77 but I havn't played up another toon since the new EM quests and My logg have been full the rest of the time. But I enjoy my time in AoC more than I did with EQ2 before, got some great guildies :) But that's about it, all people can't like the game no problem but there is quite a few people trolling AoC, Wow and WAR here just since they don't like it. Some poeple love some game others don't and that's fine or everyone would still be plating wow (or UO) but whining in the games forum ain't helping anyone. Particulary not months after you quited and the games changed.

Awsome! Glad you still enjoy the game. Sadly how easy it was to level was one of the killers for me. After 80 there wasn't much to do. People say raid but Green gear is better than tier 1 raid gear so that is kind of pointless. One of the other killing factors for me was also the declining population. It's still in a decline it sucks but it's true. The bugs and such are another issue I had. The new patch gave pvp xp and some other things which is a good start. At this point to me they have about half a game now which is a step in the right direction. The downside to this patch was it added more bugs than it fixed and those it did fix it mainly just switched to those that were not initialy having the problem and fixed it for those that were. http://forums.ageofconan.com/forumdisplay.php?f=28 This is the Tech forum for AoC tons of new bugs look for yourself. So count yourself lucky that you are able to enjoy it while many can not.
http://forums.ageofconan.com/forumdisplay.php?f=8 And this site omg if you want to talk about a forums bashing AoC you'll find far more nasty remarks about AoC on this one than you will find on MMORPG forums. There are more that enjoy the game though so you will find more pro replies as well. Since those that still play AoC are the only ones that can post there most of those that enjoy the game generaly post there instead of here. That is why there are so few pro AoC posts here. http://forums.ageofconan.com/showthread.php?t=167545 This ones about lack of new content. http://forums.ageofconan.com/showthread.php?t=167593 level 80's just love AoC. http://forums.ageofconan.com/showthread.php?t=167569 You know even with FC mods deleting/moving topics and reply's You can easily find more negative talke about AoC on there official forums than you will here so the MMORPG.com community isn't what you need to be mad at. The game in it's current state imo is still bad. It may get better but until then it is still bad.
The people falling through the world this much , this long after launch is funny as heck lol. In Beta it's expected but after launch thats some bad mojo there lol.
And lastly you realise you are already more than halfway done with the game after a couple of weeks? Level 50 in a couple of weeks only 30 levels to go before the lack of population or anything to do hits you. After you have been 80 for a week come back and tell us what you think. If you still like it great... If not then you see what alot of us went through. The games just not worth a monthly fee. F2P and they kept doing the bug fixes then yeah I would still play AoC once in a blue moon like I use to with guild wars. To pay for a game thats unfinished and bug ridden on a monthly basis is just to insulting to me I can't do it. |
