The Official Age of Conan Topic! NEW: OB CLOSED/PREORDER NOW

[Nuklear]

I really hate the health bars and stuff, it's so bad looking.

Yep, waiting for mods.

Not sure what ooc means.

Damn that sucks Twysta, you're missing out! GL with tech support. What a pain.

[the.unseen.]

So far so good? If Vista didn't **** me over I would be playing right now. Anyways what server is everyone from NA playing on?

I'm playing on the RP-PVP server Cimmeria. If you'd like to join me http://www.guildportal.com/Guild.aspx?G ... ID=2123199

noes, I can't visit the aoc forum anymore. It says my account doesn't exist and I can't register
Dammit, I'm bored, entertain pls!

You need to go to your aoc acct page, click on upgraded forum acct, and pick a new name or stick with your old one (don't know if that works).

K joined the guild under the name icedogs (won't be my in-game name tho). When I get the game (tomorrow) are you able to add people to it?

[woutR]

damn americans get it 3 days earlier, it's a european country ffs!

Cool, didn't now that was you. When you get in game jump on vent. If you don't have a mic send a tell to slass or toski. You can even post on the forums if you'd like.

Ya, major bummer. I bet they don't want to deal with all the work that comes with opening an MMO all in one day.

Ahh, it's a cute little birdie.

Spoiler!

Human, it's what's for dinner. bum bum bum

Spoiler!

[[SD]Twysta]

Fixed my net problem...

Damn, what a bad ass timing

Only lvl 20 -_-

Just created our guild - Capio Victoria

The rest of the headstart days i'm gonna really blast away because this is fricking nonsence

Also, i had sex with this girl in the inn ^_^ (no, the reason i didn't get a screenshot is NOT because i was mast..)
Ran into a GM today. Hahaha he was constantly going stealth and popping up 10 ft behind us ^_^. (LOL @ MY CHAT!! )

Spoiler!

Anyway, so far my impressions are higher then expected.
That's for all the aspects in the game.
Just brilliant basically. Not much to put here compared to the lower bits (my dislikes) but yeah this game is truly brilliant.

What i didn't like so far tho are 3 things.
- The guild window.
You cant create rank priveleges (as in, putting what rank can do what (invites, kicks etc.))
There isn't a list with all your members.
The only way to promote/invite/demote people etc. Is to right click their name (Either in ur friendslist or in game or chat)
Basically the guild window (as the leader not to mention) is really shit and just too plain and basic.
- The spawnraping
For us it wsn't too bad since we're with 4 players.
But jesus christ, some spawns are literally INSTA-raped.
The bad thing is, no spawn protection. Not to even mention you spawn physically 5 seconds before you can actually move...
- The isntancing (AKA channels)
If your not in a group with a person, and he's standing in the exact same spot. It means your not in the same channel (fix this by clicking the little arrow next to the day/night indicator and then select instance and both go to the same one)
If you ARE in a party, you can only see them from short range (both on map and in actual screen) (this is onyl if you're not in the same channel)
There are channels for every single bit of land you can set your foot on, city's - instances, etc.

[Nuklear]

There isn't a list with all your members.

At the top-left there's a circle that says, don't quote me, Friends and Guild. It lumps your guildmates with your friends so you don't have to individually add your guildies.

[woutR]

any 80's on your servers yet?

[[SD]Twysta]

Highest on our server is 55+ i think. Ill check.

[woutR]

they should open the forums to people who don't have an account
I heard there were already a couple of 80s around, pretty die hard imo.

How's the levelling on live? The classes are all so good I want to have like a gazillion alts but on wow I just cba cause imo it takes a bit too long

[Nuklear]

I heard there were already a couple of 80s around, pretty die hard imo.

If people are crazy good and EA was up all the time, I might believe this. Unless I see proof this is just nonsense.

Lvl 80 is nonsense, just no way could that even be possible.

On our server theres an account with 3 man shifts ( sometimes 2) and hes lvl 58 now. Higher then that is just frickin impossible...

Think of it, it's been exactly 3 days in 2 hours.

[woutR]

dammit, there goes my masterplan of creating a legion of 80s without too much troubles

[[SD]Twysta]

Luls, it's not hard to level up but it sure takes time - that's if you watch all the quest content, which i certainly don't want to miss.

I want to read it to but I don't give people the benefit of the doubt to not kill me.

Yeah that's kinda lame.

Just today right, i was doing my last quest on Tortage and there was this lvl 20 (my level) next to me - ON LOW HEALTH. I walked towards him but then i thought nah, that would be pretty lame so i spared his life.

And 2 minutes later, i had a group of 3 mobs on me and guess what , he comes out of stealth and starts killing me.

I finished off the group of mobs by walking around them, avoiding the player to hit me and when the group of mobs were dead, it was me and him lol, i was on like 25 % health now and he was still full. Took distance>charged in and i managed to get him below my own health. HE RAN! -_- Farking lame people on this world im telling u.

[woutR]

why did u roll pvp server then?
I'm gonna try to pvp like there's no tomorrow, I thought that was kind of the idea of the FFA-PvP.

I've annoyed myself to death with stupid alliance on wow who I couldn't kill, now I finally get the chance to kill whoever I want

It's the thrill of not knowing who's lurking in the shadows waiting to kill me that's hopefully going to be the best part in this game. I do hope I don't meet any spawncampers but other than that I'm down for pvp.

[the.unseen.]

Holy crap the box for it is huge. Anyways the map is nice looking. But man the box is big.

Huge box for a huge game.

[[SD]Twysta]

Not that i don't want to pvp. It's just so lame the way that little rat played it, annoys me.

And yeah the box is huge indeed Should be getting mine tommorow

[the.unseen.]

You'd think a name like Unseen would be taken, yet it wasn't. But Picchu, and Petra was.

So far all I can say is WOW, Farking awesome game.

[woutR]

Damn americans, I will be getting my game tomorrow but can't play till friday

[Nantosh]

Post up more HD ss. This game interests me, and I just wanna see how the graphics are all around ^ ^

[woutR]

oooeh, I already got my game today!
Already playing with my discs, so shiny!! Soon I can troll the forums till I can play the game, maybe I can even create a character, who knows.

[[SD]Twysta]

Lol u ordered at bol.com right wouter?

[woutR]

No, I preordered at dynabyte.
I still can't spam the forums though it says I should wait 20-30 minutes for my forum account to activate but I can't access it.

Oh well, back to maths it is. Damn 'kansberekeningen' are killing me.

edit: can't login @ forums or in the game, both say they've never heard of my email adress or of my username. Strange because I can login to the main site where it clearly says I have the game in my account.

[Nuklear]

Game's down for a couple hours so here's more ss.

Ooops

[[SD]Twysta]

Nice shots, allthough ur water looks kinda crappy

I'll make a couple of screens as well.

[woutR]

is there something I'm missing with the registration and all?
I can't log in to the forums or the game, I created a game password or something in my account management as well as a forum account.
When I try to log in to the forums it says it's never heard of me. When I click 'Forgot Password' and enter my email it says I'm not in the system.
I thought maybe I didn't add AOC to my list of games correctly so I tried to 'Upgrade your account' and it said I was already at the maximum which is also BS cause I don't have the CE.

When I made my account I wanted to use gamecards as subscription method but that required me to enter a gamecard code which I don't have. I picked Pay By Cash hoping iDeal was a "local option" but I couldn't find it so I cancelled that payment and I haven't activated anything ever since, does that matter?

You can't enter the forums because they are currently for EA people only. You can play and enter forums on the 23rd at 19:00 your time.

As for making an account, damn that's not what i expected. Need to quickly add a gamecard to my order i guess Could you please doublecheck it?

Beste,

Onlangs heb je de collector edition van Age of Conan bij ons in de
pre-order besteld. Deze versie van de game komt helaas heel beperkt in
Nederland uit en we hebben niet genoeg exemplaren toegedeeld gekregen om
jouw bestelling uit te kunnen leveren. We kunnen nu 2 dingen voor je
doen, de bestelling omzetten naar de normale versie van de game (of een
andere game) en het teveel betaalde bedrag terugstorten op je rekening.
Of je kan de bestelling helemaal annuleren. We horen graag waar je
voorkeur naar uitgaat, omzetten of annuleren. Verder bieden we onze
excuses aan voor het ongemak.'
godverdomme TERING

For **** sake they don't have enough copies of the game and he's asked whether i want a normal version or cancel my order.

Wouter, dynabite any good?

God damn

Told him im quite disappointed in that company and that i would really like to see a normal edition + gamecard in trade for my special edition delivered. If he doesn't agree then GKLJHGKASDASHFASFK.

[woutR]

Yeah dynabyte was fine although they don't have gamecards as well.
I ordered a gamecard + the game and I only got the game with a letter that 'some items' may not have been delivered and will be sent later at no additional cost.

Anyways, it only said I needed the gamecard code when creating the account. I just picked another payment option and then later at account management I deleted that one.
After that, payment is undisclosed and there is an option to add a gamecard code to your account so I guess they just farked up the original account creation with the requirement to have a gamecard code ready.

I have sent mails to customer support and await their response. In the meantime I guess it's better to be safe than sorry and go ahead and order yourself a gamecard.
Just don't do it at dynabyte then because they didn't give me my gamecard yet.

edit: I got another useless automated reply from customer support but it also containted this

Customer Account: XXXXXXXXX
Subscription Account: None

pretty confused right now.
