AoC is an incredibly awesome game, if you can get your head out of your preverbial rear-end, then you might start playing the game the same way you play other games. Did you need to group from level 1-30 besides dungeons? in any game? how about wow? nope? then why the complaints about AoC... if a game tops at lvl 50.. thats lvl 25 before you should ever have to group, well AoC tops at lvl 80. So thats level 40 before you start having to group more often. It's there in the first 40 levels, even in the tutorial Tortage, you just have to look for it.

WoW info - At lvl 15, did you group? no. At lvl 25 did you group? no. Why is that? is it because almost all of the quests are to kill 10-20 of something that you can pull safely by yourself?

When you enter a dungeon/region, if you want to do your quests and killing in solid multiplayer groups, then enter it as Epic, some Normal places are as hard as elites in other games (like WoW) but most Normal places can be solo'd if you are careful and know how to play your character, if you want forced multiplayer content, then enter everything as Epic and enjoy the elite-style mobs and quests. If you don't like it, then go away or stop complaining.

If you go looking for groups or help with quests or dungeon runs, why don't you go looking for it in AoC? if you search for multiplayer *whether hard or easy* in other games, why won't you search for it in AoC? and have people forgotten that if you don't put in the effort, it probably won't get done? I rarely get invited randomly to groups in other MMOs, just as rarely as i do in AoC, and I look for multiplayer interaction in AoC the same way I look for it on other games.

Just wanted to say that DDO is the biggest failure ACCORDING TO YOU.

A lot of people are enjoying it and I played it too, quite good.

Might not be your cup of tea but hey, you don't have to take that tea :P

And according to ME Lotro and WoW are better than AoC as much as I hate WoW :P

this is not the best mmo ever, this has the best graphics for an mmo ever. the game is very rushed, the item lore is very generic and you dont feel rewarded for the items. in WOW sometimes i get items the make me feel like im leveling and getting stronger. in AOC items with +0.1 rating will likely still be on your body at level 22. makes no since and WTF is +0.1? Tortage is the very weak, they should have not had tortage night. They should of just had you level to 10 in the day and let you leave the island. 20 level to get off the island is way to much in such a small area. Tortage night was put in so they could double up the same small area, make you grind the same area twice to seem bigger. and you all fell for it. the graphics are great, im sure this game will be a million times better in a year, i will wait. I am cool with WOW right now. I am a graphics whore, but i love gameplay even more, AOC fell short, i feel like im going backwards when playing conan.

Originaly tortage was meant to be singleplayer, afterwords they decided to make it open and multiplay, and thus tortage night was made using the singleplayer questline.

This game is amazing, i am lvl 18 Barbarian right now and have gotten used to the combat and it is revolutionary, once you get hang of it, i can see the brilliance of it all now

Also, this is not the first MMO to have swing any time directional combat. Its just the first one with major shallow hype behind it. Revolutionary? Hardly. Woo, I can swing in three directions!

- levelling is too fast

Agreed!

AoC is extremely well made, no question it is the BEST mmo ever of all time.  I think everyone is in agreement on that

The people who disagree are the ones with lousy horrible computers...here is a clue for ya....buy a new computer

 Lousy computers?  I have been reading these AoC forums for some time.  I have read many people with advanced gaming rigs having serious problems.  (maybe they don't know what they are doing, I don't know.) I have a moderate computer.  It runs so-so.  Anyone who buys upgrades exceeding the amount they payed for the game itself  is A) rich, or B) not sane.   Why spend X amount of dollars or euros on upgrading your PC  when you can buy it for a console later for 60$?   Flame on........lol

Well spoken jokuvaan.

No its not.

It's good ok but thats enough

My PC is probably better is yours and doesn't run AoC that well.

80% of the times is ok but that 20% is really annoying for this game.

So here's a clue for you, don't be a fanboy cause from what I saw around this site sometime in the future the game may crash n burn and you'll be the first hater poster on these forums.

Happened to Fury / Vanguard even if I do believe they're decent games still :)

I agree zspawn, the game totally rocks!  I am so glad a game as magnificent as Age of Conan was made for all of us to enjoy for years

I also agree with you that Age of Conan is next generation graphics and gameplay and word is spreading fast that this is the best mmo of all time

We can only hope that not too many more people discover this masterpiece and clog the servers even more, lol

FunCom make more servers!!!  at least 100 servers!  they all jammed
