The Songs of Ice and Fire Series by GRRM, would be brilliant with Realm pvp, anyone who has read the book often establishes a bond with one of the houses, and i think it could well be carried over into an MMO where people would actually care about the realm. However there isn't much magic potential, but the land... it huge and full of goodies

I think your making a bit too much fuss out of this, one you can still make plenty of diverse characters with the skill tree, i think what they are trying to say is they want to make balance between the 3 tree's so no one is penalized for going one way or another.

Remeber in WoW where warriors all had to bs MS spec otherwise they sucked? I think the devs are saying no matter which way you go(as in tree) you will be effective, but that doesnt mean some builds wont be better then others, just the gap wont be as large therefore it will still rely largely on player skill which is another big part of the game.

Plus everything is a work in progress so relax.

I've read a few conan stories and in 1 of them some red priest dude has some black monkey thing which is massive, and anyways it's kinda his pet.. but it also kinda turns on him.

I don't mind pets but they'd have to be wild... like the rest of the conan universe.. they could turn on you, they arn't just a npc which will do anything at your command. It must have a wild feel to it, depending on the pet ofcourse, and i want PERMA-death for pets, but thats me

I voted yes

Thanks for timely response i didn't hear that part, let's hope we hear good news soon

Looting is a must in this game ! Full looting or just a few items, it must be there, i hate the WoW system where u kill someone to have them stab u in the back 3 minutes later to waste your time, when i kill someone i want them to think twice before crossing paths with me again.

I've been following this game on and off now for a 12 months or so.. and i've watched videos where the combat system looks different, in a few videos released near the start of the year there is 6 different buttons and like u can side-step and strafe but in the new vids there is only 5 (q123e) and there is no more strafing and that, which means the combat will be more static, and get hit/hitback .. which is a downer because i was really looking forward to out manouvering my opponents.

Anyhow can anyone explain to me why funcom has altered their combat system?

Great Idea for a game! can't wait to play this, i know a few mates who will be easily persuaded into trying this out. Hope to play it soon, keep us updated ! Thank you

You have all forget that this game does offer cool and diverce item drops as you go on, you dont have acess to all weapons and armour on character creation, there are rare armour and weapons that are dropped by mobs, so in reality this game will have just as much opprotunity to show off rare armour as wow, maybe even more... because in WoW you can get any armour you just have to keep killing the same guy... in this (from my understanding) the armour and weapon drops are random.. this is hasnt been confirmed this is speculation, so in WoW if you want T2 pvp gear just grind BG for 2 weeks and you have it... so its not really that rare coz anyone who grind BG for 2 weeks can get it. Plus i think the armour in this game will look hell-a-alot more cool.

And as far as armour and weapons go not having stats you can slot each armour and weapon with stones(i forget their names) yes they may not make a huge difference in power, and damage and they wont be much stronger then other peoples however the trick will be is to who can best slot their armour and weapons to complement their build of abilities and this giving them the edge... this again is based on skill ... i think this game will be tops.. on the one condition that the servers are ace.. if there is lag and people have unequal service it will cause heartache and headaches and put alot of people off.

thats my 2cents

First MMO i played after runescape i played for 3 years or so, even though the leveling was a grind fest, the game kept me hooked, because hte pvp! omg best!!! I judge MMO pvp systems based on this game, because this was THE PVP game.. shame the designers stuffed it up so bad... really was fun game!

Any players who used to play on the Original sever before the USA came out lurking here say hello, what was your character, what side were you part of.. so on.. say hi.

I was Aresden... Legolas i think i was and i got hacked and then i was Legolas 2 and got hacked and then Legolas3 hahaha or Lego3 or something

Hi, i am about to start with 3 mates... and well we love PvP and i heard this game has decent pvp, anyways i was wondering since all the sets are standalone which should i get ? the Original, or Factions... whats the differences? Class restrictions? Level restrictions?]

Thanks
