Funcom has announced that registration for early access to play Age of Conan on the EU servers is now open.

Registration for customers with pre-order keys has now opened.

Registration for customers with pre-order keys has now opened on http://register.ageofconan.com. Registering with a valid pre-order key (such as the Rhino or Mammoth key) is the unique way to be eligible to purchase Early Access for 5€/5$. This fee includes 10 days of game-time as well as the digital download of the client. Hurry though, because the Early Access is only available while supply lasts!

how can I hurry? Amazon.co.uk won't send the pre-order keys before May 16th afaik...darn

Where's my key Game??

At the current state of the game they should pay me to access it early.

No, thanks. I will access it LATE for free. Maybe around Christmas.

The Pre-Order Registration is actually open since may 2nd

Any clue where to download for the Early entry, I have a US Early entry from Gamestop, but there was no listing anywhere for where to download the client, even whether it was on Fileplanet or not.  I looked on the Funcom forums and could not find an answer there either.

Seriuosly anyone that pays Funcom money to continue their Beta from the 17th of May onwards, may as well just go play vanguard.  How can really developers get away with releasing really unfinished crap like this???

Anyoen that even criticised Vanguard really cannot defend Aoc, because if you do then your just hypocrites simple as that.

Yipeeeh I'm a hypocrite!! Cool! Awesomness!! Great!!

Ok, to everyone that's having problems with the pre-order keys from gamestop.

Ok, if you played Anarchy Online before, you can use your login and tack on AoC to that account.

I have a AO account so i just went to http://register.funcom.com

On the lower left, it says, "Enter game key" so I did.. So now, my Pre-Order War Mammoth is done. 

BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE..  To sign up for Early Access, you have to click on the "Upgrade now" button underneath the Block that says Early Access.  Set what Credit card you want to be charged when it comes out and when the early access comes out for your sector, an Email will be dispatched to your linked email account with directions to download the client (Be prepared for a 10-15gb download.  I will be MORE than happy to pay $5 to download the client and get 10 more days (for a total of 40 days).  I'll ignore these doomsayers.  AoC is gonna be Hot and thanks to Funcom for their hard work!

Game haven't sent any out either, so perhaps Funcom could actually issue the things before opening registration.

Although I won't be paying to get in 72 hours early to help ease server load.

I got my copy for £15 from GAME and at least if it is rubbish I haven't been too badly ripped off.
