i just downloaded the client for AO yesterday and i was wondering if i lose any content of the game because it has no monthly fee's. Or is it the whole game for free?

Also i am sure some 1 has asked this but oh well, what happens when i die do i lose everything and where do i respawn?

Yes, the whole game is free. Although it's been announced that this free offer will end in January 15th, I think it will be expended owing to advertisements on in-game bilboards project. We'll see..But as I said, your content will certainly be kept until January.

When you die, you lose all uninsured xps, and teleported to reclaim and you're able to collect the items in your inventory after a short moment. There's nothing to lose except xp(unless you insured) upon your death

Its only the "basic" game that is free.
As soon as you upgrade to an expansion you start paying money for it.

I also downloaded the free client recently, and everything seem to work as it should, you respawn regulary, with all your items & XP saved until level 10 I think.

But, since the client is free and I downloaded and istalled it first at my work computer, I got an idea of trasfering it home where I have far "more slower" connection and couldn't even think of downloading the client. And there is one issue that I noticed. When I last logged off from the game at work, I had 2 quests active, and was in the middle of solving the second, non-main quest picked up from the terminal. And the other quest was "beginer-finding-the-secondhand-paddler" one. And when I installed the game at home and logged in, the second quest wanished and I was out of the "cave" I was last in when solving the second quest without a way to get back in or to continue the second quest.

So the purpose of what I wrote is, the game works just as it should, but some awarness when logging out while in the middle of a quest.
