    Lag and slow response.. making a new character and play it kills you after just 30 min.. so slow and boring that its amazing.. i liked the scenario better when the game got out and u ran in the city and made missions.. and then otside the city.. this new  well not that new beginners zone is really bad.. this was the 4th time i tried to play the game and definately the last attempt...

    
    

     

    getting out of the the backyards, then pass through the sewers district and entering omni entertainment for the 1st time was really a great moment in AO for me (in beta years ago).

    TR still fails and will continue to do so;

     - too many bugs to even start listing

    - not enough content

    - limited gameplay

    - horrible pathing

    - inconsistent quest/mission system

    - horrible community

    - groups have limited support / roles and tactics

    I could go on and on, however that fact of the matter is only the die hard RG fanbui's continue to play.

     

     

    Have you even played the game recently?

    - Bugs - Please do list them off, because this is one of the most polished games out there today

    - Content - From 1-49 there is plenty, at 50 the game is lacking, but we'll be seeing some end game content next month

    - Gameplay - Combat is excellent, Storyline is great, crafting is horrible (currently being revamped)

    - Pathing - It is very easy to f ind your way around the maps in this game

    - Missions - The storyline in this game is great.  All of the in between quests are also spot on and far from inconsistant

    - Community - Less need for grouping = Less community interaction.  Developer/player relations are second to none.

    - Roles/Tactics - Best feature of this game is that there are no defined roles.  Just because your a medic, doesn't mean you have to heal everyone.  Players can customize their characters to define their own roles.  That is a win for skill customization.

    I could go on and on, however the fact of the matter is only trolls who are dead set on WoW model of MMO's will continue to bash this game.

     

    im also interested in TRs current state, i left 2 weeks after TR started (been in beta from march 2007 till end) most bugs i remember from before i left (after release):

    missions not updating , missions dont end at questgiver or cant get next step , broken missions - target not in game, mission radar shows wrong target or direction, mission mobs in walls

    inventory bugs

    one shot mobs (players killed by unknown damage not in log, unreasonable damage from normal mobs), mobs with insane regen (non-bosses), mobs shoot through walls from far away

    logos missing, logos at wrong place , logos there but not working (cant touch this), wrong description of logos for abilities (or the game saying you miss logo X but you have it 100% and the ability doesnt work)

    client crashes (never really had this , even in beta)

    lvl 30+ abilities not working or beeing just plain useless or fillers

    crafting ?

    reload bugs (weapons stuck without ammo till client restart)

    etc.

     

    is everything fixed now after ~10 months ?

    The only reason AO turned around was because Sil took over. If they keep Gaute in charge of AoC, good luck.

     

    lol

    didnt knew sil did take over, but if you know sils background you know hes been the biggest funcon fanboy ever. hes been a big part and global player of all the lies and shit around fc after cz left.

    Some people won't forget (AO) and now AoC for some. What should be evident from AO is the capability of turn around. AO was turned around. And with AoC people are waiting for this to happen. Difference is Funcom is larger than it was 7 yrs ago with AO, more resources, more people, the jobs on their website they are advertising for new people are larger than the EQ dev team I believe. Some key jobs roles for Aoc too I might add.

    
    

     

    AO turned from unplayable crap to playable crap. funcon didnt change and ao didnt really change either. still the old lies and promises. still the broken patches, unreasonable bans and censorship to cover up their bug-ridden and content-free products. its 10 years too late for this kind of work now.

    im still suprised , all you trolls and haters have been warned and you still fell for it :)

    Recently, MMORPG.com Managing Editor Jon Wood had the opportunity to send eight questions over to Jorgen Tharaldsen at Funcom. In those questions, Tharaldsen addresses instances, CS and more.

    Some members are complaining that dealing with customer support has been frustrating, and help comes late and sometimes not at all. Can you speak to this?

    Jorgen Tharaldsen

    We have been known to give some of the best customer services in the MMO industry for years, and while we are striving to meet the same standards for Age of Conan as soon as possible we are not there yet. The reason for this is naturally the sheer amount of people who is playing the game right now, and while we staffed up significantly for the Conan launch it wasn't enough for what we are now facing. We are actively staffing up as fast as we can in order to reduce the waiting times, and get back to our standard of being among the best, which is always our goal.

    Check out the whole Q&A here.

     

    hmm more lies , "known to give best customer service" ? funcon is known to give the worst customer service in and out of its games for a long time. the only thing they are quick with is censoring their forum.

     

    As a 5 yr Anarchy online customer I can confirm that their customer service has always been the worst by far of any MMO, Tharaldsen straight up lied. Apparently their strong suit is PR & Spin Control.

     

    I am losing a great deal of respect for FunCom and its continued AoC debacle. Five years of my Fanboi-ing shot to hell into under a month. They keep this kinda out-and-out lying and dis-information they'll soon by as hated as in the MMO world as SOE.

    Isn't that the same guy who stated "There won't be any camping in Shadowlands?

    that was gaute goudager or something, cant rember the exact name. spreading lies is a company feat at FC HQ
