LOL stupid failcom.  LOTD finished their tier 3 city over a month ago.  On the Deathwhisper server.  Yes a full tier 3 city not duped or gm given but player built from the ground up.  Thing is Deathwhisper is a pvp server so when it was completed and announced nobody much cared.  Also, it was assumed at the time it wasn't the first one completed.  (now apparently it was)   Now over a month later some pve noobs complete theirs and claim a world first ROFL.  Its only made funnier by failcom actually posting that crap on their own site and not even knowing their  own game well enough to know the first full tier 3 city was completed over a MONTH ago.  LOL I'm just glad that I canceled my account weeks ago good luck failcom.

 

I hardly doubt you ever played the game. Do you have any references for your controversial information. I hardly belive a word of what you say.

Me too want to hear something on weapons and armors in Tier 3 cities? Anyone have some info on this, please post ?

Believe me now noob?

This was posted on 9/2/2008 on the LoTD forums.

there are also a few threads on the official forums stating the same thing.

 

In the future, dont be so quick to call someone a liar before you research the topic a bit more.

 

I am pretty sure he hasn't ever played the game let alone read the official forum. Pure Troll.

 

To be fair it's not like LOTD had much competition after all 500+ members of Goonheim realized the game was trash and bailed within the first six weeks.

First of all I have two level 80 characters a demo and a barb.  SO to the dumbass that thinks I never played FU.  Second do a little research what I'm saying is absolutely true.  How do I know you ask?  BECAUSE I PLAYED ON DEATHWHISPER!  The reason I quit is that there is nothing to do at endgame in AOC hence the reason I even made another character.   AOC was a great concept horribly implemented and destined for fail.  Now im hoping Darkfall is the light at the end of the tunnel F war I was in that beta got to level two and never played it again. 

Also, don't even try to say Goonheim was a force on Deathwhisper they were the biggest noobs ever hunted by the entire server relentlessly.  See a goon kill em, no competition they didn't work together just a big mob of noobs.  They "left" several months after the game started after getting stomped out by the entire server the whole time.  They never even succesfully held the oasis or city in Khesh and that is just pathetic.  The only thing the goons did well is spam the forums with there propaganda and nonsense but anyone who played with them knows goons suck and you don't believe anything they post or say.

The noteriety system being implemented on a pvp server is the worst idea failcom has had yet.  There are countless ways to abuse such a system but the simplest is the apprentice system.  Especially in Kheshetta where 50s apped up to mid 70s is commonplace and as of right now there is no way to tell what level they actually are.  This noteriety system is not needed, not wanted, and will ruin the game for many many people.  GG failcom way to not fix bugs or add worthwhile content and instead focus on something that will destroy the only fun thing about your game the world pvp.

LOOK AT THE BOTTOM OF THE ARTICLE

2 days after the original blog was written the author had to update his comments:

http://wowriot.gameriot.com/blogs/Epidemic-Obesity/Age-of-Conan-Poised-to-Dominate-WoW/

whats his follow up titled you may ask?         Age of Conan Poised to Dominate WoW

go ahead read that and know that AOC is a great game and these haters are just scared of there beloved wow going down in flames or wow2 aka war will get no play

on a pvp server you hit anyone not in your current group or raid, this includes guildies and friends

also the pvp in this game is far more intense than any other current (read last 3-4yrs) mmo i have played wow, lotro, eve, eq 2 etc....

1v1 battles can last anywhere from 10 seconds to 10 minutes dependent on the skill level of the players and the classes involved

ffa pvp on conan isn't for everyone you are always under the threat of attack from ANY player not just the opposite faction.  I love it, but if you just want to grind in peace don't go pvp and then complain when the next person that comes along who wants your spot kills you for it

Red = Dead  (and everyone not in your group is red)

The game still runs poorly on both high and low end machines, many aspects of the game are still not even tested/implemented like city sieges and crafting, and there is almost no content past level 20. The game isn't even close to ready.

I was in the OB and also now am in the EA in OB I had many many problems and could not play for longer than 20 min at a time without crashing, now in EA my character is at level 30 and I haven't crashed a single time!  Funcom did indeed work some sort of miracle because the game runs flawlessly now.  NO CRASHES AT ALL  this is indeed the best launched mmo to date so far.  As far as game play goes there are tons of things to do past 20 and from my experience so far the world is continually expanding the higher level you get.

AOC Rocks!

yeah the physical location of the servers is in NJ but thats not what I'm talking about, I'm talking about the lockout timers for siege windows in the border kingdoms.  currently I believe they are from midnight to 7 or 8 am for people on PST this means no sieging after 9pm if they are on a EST server, not acceptable at all

yeah it was nice of them to release the names of servers but without the appropriate timezones attached it is still worthless info cause anyone on the PST has to play on PST or their going to be screwed

its nice the server names are out but they didnt say which time zones they apply to.  thats a huge problem because of lockout timers for the siege battles for people playing on PST they cannot play on a EST server or they will NEVER be able to siege after 9pm which is just way too early.  Hopefully they post what servers will be what times before launch

This game is not your standard f2p game and as far as f2p games go this is by far the best one I have ever played.   Currently level 21 and still enjoying it.

The bottom line is that Aoc offers a new battle everytime you take the field.  Whether its single combat out in the world against ANYONE not just the opposing faction or at a massive siege, the battles are always going to play out differently.  How many times can you take the same city over and over again before you are bored out of your mind 50? a 100?   You can pvp in Aoc for years and the sequence of events will never be the same.  War will be the same thing all the time every time, no thanks.

If you can play a game from lvl 1 to level cap without ever once having participated in pvp and not progressing slower as a result of not partipating in pvp.... I don't know if I would call it a pvp game.

Conan... is not a pvp game. It is a pve game with pvp tacked on. Your progress is not at all hampered by not participating in pvp. PvP is mostly end-game material or after significantly advancing your character first. You can avoid all pvp in conan if you want, and it will not affect anything but your performance in pvp. PvP is not integrated into any other non-pvp systems in the game.

WAR... is a pvp game. It has both pvp and pve throughout the game from the moment you start till the moment you hit max level. You WILL advance slower if you do not partipate in pvp (or pve). PvP affects all the core systems in the game and the game was designed from the ground up to be affected by what happens in pvp.

Hey there warboi I would make the argument that conan is more of a pvp game than warhammer is or ever could hope to be.   Here is the reason why: after noob island  on a conan pvp server ANYONE other than your guildmates is attackable.  NO empire or chaos BS where half the population is UNKILLABLE.  On top of this there are actual keeps to be taken which you can potentially hold forever no resetting city attack grind crap.  ON top of this I have seen the war dev podcasts and they clearly state that you can get to max level in war without ever once engaging in pvp.  Whereas in conan there are actual pvp levels 20 of them I believe that increase your dps abilities and can only be unlocked by engaging in pvp.

 

 

if the game is f2p then I don't have a problem with ingame ads, but if I'm paying a monthly subscription fee I don't want to see any ads period.

To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.

Even though it is a great quote this game is based on the books by Robert E. Howard, which if you read you will learn Conan is a much smarter and more dynamic character than you are shown in the Arnold movies

Also, only about half of those guys were actually written about in the original Howard books.    The rest were added in by the lesser  authors over the years who struggled to do justice to Howard's Conan legacy and come up with original ideas.  So they just made their stories about Conan versus some all powerful sorcerer.

This game is unique and fun, that being said it is also unplayable for me at this time and it doesn't look like it will be getting fixed anytime soon.  This is because of one thing

X-TRAP ---> the shittiest system ever, no matter what I have tried I cannot play for longer than 45 minutes until the game crashes which also causes my computer to reset.  Despite many, many, many players reporting this problem to K2  tech support they have still not come up with a workable solution to crappy xtrap.  I played the beta and never had any problems now that the game is live I can't play it at all.  So while it is a fun game and a unique experience DO NOT BUY a subscription until you make sure that you can actually play the game and don't suffer from the same xtrap problems

the bottom line is in aoc your guild can fight every other guild and actually take territory from others and build upon it,  where as in war its a simple 2 factions just repeating the same battles over and over again

as far as dynamic, strategic and everchanging pvp gameplay is concerned aoc is the clear victor  just look at the mechanics of  each game
