Anarchy Online News - Sixth Anniversary

Posted by Keith Cross on Apr 23, 2007  | 8 comments in our forums

Anarchy Online will be turning six in June and to celebrate they will be having weekly contests from now until June. Weekly prizes include one free life-time account, two places in the Age of Conan beta program, one free 'all expansion upgrades' and 30 days subscription, and more.

At the end of June Anarchy Online will be celebrating its sixth anniversary and we are taking the opportunity to give all the citizens of Rubi-Ka a chance to snare themselves some great prizes.

All you have to do to be eligible is to have logged into the game that week (running Friday to Thursday each week) and you will automatically be in with a chance of winning one of these great prizes!

The birthday weekend will also feature extra special events, parties and activities that you won't want to miss, including exclusive birthday items and new items available from the veterans vendors!

You can read the contest details and see all of the prizes here.

 Has it really been that long? I miss the old days when the Notum wars had just began.... I miss my old guild the RollerRats and
all the antics hehe. Few guys surprised people more by surviving the AO. Back at release it was so buggy you could barely stay logged in.
The devs never gave up though Kudos for lasting!

6yrs is a nice accomplishment for a game that started off so badly. Did they ever add new player graphics?

After 6 years, maybe its time for a graphic upgrade?  or has that been done already

There were some minor texture updates but thats all. Quite a few devs have said they have no plans to redo the graphics for AO any time soon. Which could mean they plan to make a Anarchy Online 2 of some sorts. That or they will just let the game exist as it always has.
With AoC coming down the pipes I imagine they have enough on there plate.

I Really hope they do hope they make ao 2 I really loved ao when I started to play it a few  years ago, its definitely a game to  redo or make a part 2 out of I truly hope funcom doesnt forget anarchy online, but they could have done something better then that for there six anniversary, well  happy anniversary ao !! miss you !!

Viva AO! AoC will be a great game but as many others I'd like to see some minor upgrades in AO. I can live with graphics (still think this is very stylish) but sound should be revised.
