Wow. Your post actually touched me. Never happened before. Scary. I was thinking about saving my buddy keys until they fix the game but screw it, I'll give you one now.

PM me your email, and I'll send it.

Oh, and please choose the most active server. I believe it's Cimmeria.

 

There are other servers that are active as well: Tyranny, Deathwhisper, Set, Wicca, and I believe Thorg.

There is no such thing as an active busy AoC server.  Cimmeria is your closest bet and it probably doesn't even break 500 people in primetime.

Thank you Oasis PM has been sent to ya look forward to playing really soon

Do you maybe have some facts to back up this data? It is my understanding two guilds have quite large rosters on that server, so, this data is speculation only.

Of course if you could provide some proof, that would work best. Otherwise it sounds foolish to call numbers without facts.

Thank you

Problem is there really is not any way to gather an accuate list of people actually playing because FC doesn't provide them and the search function does not display all people currently online. That being said 500 sounds low since most guilds have at least 30 people signed in at any one time and there are still a good portion of unguilded players.

Yes totaly agree with OP !!

AOC is really cool and fun !!!

I play it with 4 irl friends and we all LOVE IT !!!

I agree too , just treated myself to a 60 day time card and after the last patch its much much bettr now ! Thumbs up from now on I think it can only get better.

Also well done to Funcom for doing their best to turn things around from a very difficult situation.

Yeah How dare anyone say anything Positive on these forums.  And even more so right after they register.    I guess the rules are never register On mmorpg because your opinion wont be valid and don't say anything positive if, god forbid, you do register.

In my opinion, Conan is a good game, It is getting better.  To me it seemed it got the Napoleon Dynamite effect of people hating it.  It was the cool thing to do. (Which is why such a terrible movie was so popular)

AoC has nowhere to go but up.  I think in the anals of MMO history this game will be remembered as a 'WHAT NOT TO DO WHEN RELEASING AN MMO' kinda thing.  I mean there should be a class in the game design school about AoC and how NOT to treat customers, how NOT to allow rabid fanbois moderation privledges. How NOT to have your CSR's having cyber with the customers. How NOT to ban people experimenting with the new PVP system you created.  Stand on a rock = BAN, I mean at a time when people were leaving the game en masse, was it the best approach to ban people standing in a wheat field during pvp?

There were just so many things done wrong.  The game was hyped and released in what FUNCOM had to know was a terrible state.  Then when people complained FUNCOM ignored them and when people started to demand action they simply deleted the posts, moved the posts, or banned the user. 

Four months after release and nearly 90% of the crowd gone from launch they finally take drastic action and run their game director out of the industry.  People that say that AoC is great etc etc... I just cant see that, I mean the same people saying its great are the ones saying GIVE THE NEW GUY TIME....

So which is it? How can the game be GREAT when the Game Director was run out of the industry on rails just about 1 month ago? I mean there must have been something wrong if that happened, right? I mean you cant have it both ways boys.

when was the last time you played lumache?

Ive logged on from time to time to find my server a wasteland.

It's out of issues like this that AoCExposed.4-Playerz.Com was born. To many paying customers were being ignored, served infractions for speaking up, or flat out banned for ridiculous reasons. Apparently someone finally got fed up with the ridiculous censorship and created a place for players to speak up without fear of the message being dismissed or heavily censored. Check it out.

Ah, there it is, the main theme of propaganda, straight from their marching orders on the AoC forum.

Unless someone has played within the last week or two, their opinion is worthless, since it's now a "whole new game" since the patch in mid-September.  Or something like that.

The patch didn't make it a new game, or change the game at its foundation, as the propagandists want everyone to believe.  It's still the same flawed design.

You say flawed designed I say something new. If you didn't want to play an instanced game you shouldn't of bought AoC in the first place. Everyone was informed that it would be instanced before launch.
And yes, if you haven't been keeping up with the game since 2.0 you wouldn't be aware of the progress and increase communication. And to my knowledge no one got banned from the forums they simply lost forum rights for unsubscribe.

I heard there were lawsuits already cooking against FunCom

Lol, your knowledge is wrong. Many people got banned from making negative (not bashing) threads when AoC did their forum "cleansing".

Well if it matters any, which it doesn't tbh, I would of done the same thing if thats all these people who got banned from the forums did.

There are plenty of of neg post on the forums that are simply Failcom sucks peace and thoes people weren't banned. They aren't the forum nazis that people try to make them out to be. They just follow the fourm rules. Is it right? No, but its their right to do so just like its the people who run the waralliance forums right to delete and lock threads that are of the same calibur.

yeah, it does seem to be getting better and better, I really like it, it's a great game

With people like you two it wouldnt suprise me if it was his last post. You hate a game so much that you have to hate anyone that likes it?? Why not find a game you like instead of hating others for ones they like?

 

Whoa there kiddy. First of all please tell me where I have EVER mentioned that I hated AoC? I have the game sitting right on my desk and currently play it along with 2 other MMOs that I enjoy.

Think before you speak, what we said previous happens almost every day here on MMORPG. "People" I use quotation marks because its probably game representives, register here make a "this game is great post" and then you don't hear from them again.

I gotta agree with him though actually I had noticed it myself alot of the posts I see started saying how much this game rocks for some strange reason that was beyond the noob in me had less than ten posts, but really you guys need to think if he is in fact gearing up to start a flame war it wouldn't start if no one responded to him but anyway I assure you you would find it interesting how often the people who post positive reviews about this game have extremely low post count and post almost the same generic review of the current state of the game.

well the other thing is, not everyone lurks on these game boards looking to stick their opinion in every smelly opinion that pops up... some people just post when they have something to say they care about...

And in general I like those posts better. Posts with no content as in, yepp lets cut and paste some stuff somebody said like 2 months back, is completely useless. Still you see those posts all the time from some of the professordudes that try to be so GD smart all the time.
