Any guild charging less than 50% doesn't understand the cost of caputring and holding a keep. That being said, our tax is 70% and no one has had any problem with gold. As others have said, it's only on looted bodies.

Do I need to even find a older WoW vid?
I love WAR and I'm going to play it at release and all that stuff. But honestly, you can't compare a game released in 2004 to a game released in 2008.
Actually, you can compare them, and I was surpirsed that I found the WoW vid looked better (or at least not any worse). Though, in all fairness, the Warhammer vid was quit a bit shorter.
I"m fully prepared to be flammed / told people don't care / told this post is useless, whatever, etc. etc. but I thought I would offer a solution to one thing that many people complain about: the easy mode quest arrows.
For those who do not know, there is place under your HUD options to turn these off.
As far as traders not working, lag spikes, high machine requirements, I can't help you. That is all.
Like many of you, I wish the world wasn't instanced because you know, sitting in a queue for a few hours waiting to even play the game is so much fun!
As far as FFA PvP, you must all be playing somewhere else, cause I'm getting ganked / ganking / PvP'n with others all the time.
I just don't get these posts. It's as if people expect that the launch of an MMO will be completely flawless, especially one as ambitious as Conan. I haven't had any problems with AoC with the exception of those well known issues like Traders. Our guild built the beginnings of our city last night, I've leveled to 45 with frame rates from 30-40 on high, 70-80 on medium. Every time I start up the program it runs and I'm able to log in. And, almost everyone in my guild, which has almost 100 members now, has had the same experience.
I remember when WoW launched I would have to spend up to an hour in a queue line only to connect and be disconnected 15 minutes later, and the servers were down constantly for urgent maintenance.
I'm sorry it's not going as smoothly for you, I really am. But to say the launch is as bad is AO is completely asinine.
