It seems to look a bit black and white ish to me

Anyway woutr, it works the same way for a lot of games.
In WoW you need to add a gamecard or enter your credit card details as well to "open/activate" your account.

I knew this from before it was just not confirmed yet.

[the.unseen.]

So far so good. Gonna take my first 20 levels kinda slow (won't be on during this weekend). But once summer starts I should be leveling really quick.

BTW: Nuklear how do you know I am a PS3 Fan boy.

Glad your enjoying it and you know you don't keep that secret, lol. Even though I'm not big on sony that KZ2 gif you had for a while was the shit. I hope the story and events in the game will be what they're hyped up to be. Will be buying a ps3 for LBP, love personal customization.

Did you immediately buy a gamecard for your game as well?

btw twysta, in wow I didn't need a gamecard to activate my account.

Hmm i'm pretty sure you need either a credit card or a gamecard.
I'm guessing you used iDeal?

[woutR]

I haven't paid them anything besides the game.
Atm I have the PayByCash option open, but idk what that does.

I activated the PayByCash option and I could finally log on to the forums to commence my spammings. There is a lot of uncertainty on the forums about how it's all going down tomorrow.
The game is supposed to be playable by 'normal' players early in the morning so I'm gonna try to log on in the morning and if I still can't I'll race to dynabyte and get myself a gamecard.

[[SD]Twysta]

woutR, it opens tommorow morning around 5 AM, (dutch time ).

But since my game is coming tommorow, i'm making the most of tonight.

The shop i ordered it at agreed to send me a gamecard + the normal version instead of the special edition. But they don't get the gamecards until early june... If i can't enter the game without a gamecard i'm gonna have to visit the city tommorow and go past every shop and hoping they aren't sold out.

[woutR]

gamecards aren't available anywhere.
I read on the forums you can select PayByCash (also my current payment method) as payment method and then access your 30 days, wait for the gamecards to be available or sort out your CC and then cancel your current subscription and enter the gamecard.


I still can't come up with a name though, and I've also not yet engineerd my plan to convince my mum in letting me stay home. (I'm not 18 yet, shhh don't tell funcom!)

edit: just scooped this off the forums:
If it says Age of Conan under products - you have your 30 days.

They are referring to your main account page.
So I guess I can enjoy AOC tomorrow

It says that for me, and i've not even entered a key other then the drinking cape 1 and the early access 1 :/

Hmm... I'm seriously thinking of playing this game.
Aight, questions. Can it be bot in stores yet? If not, when?
Second, cost per month?
Third - Is there a PvP - RP server yet, or no?

[Nuklear]

It came out Tuesday.
$15
Yes, I'm playing on one.

[Nantosh]

Of forgot... is it (purchasable) in Canada ><

[woutR]

wewt, I've been playing for two hours now. I'm experimenting, discovering stuff, all the stuff you guys could do in beta
I have to allocate some points into climbing and spell concentration; if I make a mistake doing this, can I later un- and redo the points?

I am playing a Necromancer with the name 'Wouter' (I know, creative!) though I didn't quite think it through and made it a female.
The necromancer is a, imo, pretty weak class at the start. I can only hope it gets better but I get raped pretty hard by any melee.
I also have no clue who I encounter, they just have swords. It doesn't say RandomNoob, lv 8, HoX.
Anyways, I'm not too fond of the necromancer. I will play it a bit more and I'll maybe try a HoX.

Level 8 by the way, or 7. I don't remember. Off to some sorcerer bitch who's servants I'm gonna rape to show her I like her.

You gotta give the necro a couple more levels Then you get your important skils and then it gets fun, trust me.

Yeah you can always reset those points by alt clicking the minus icon Just hold your mouse over on them and it will tell you how to remove them and stuff like that

Still don't have my discs...

[woutR]

Everyone I met so far has been unkind to me
Usually they don't respond so I just go ahead and kill them cause more often than not those silent bastards kill me when I am typing.
I've met some crazy pathetic people who stand at dungeon loadings and kill everyone.

Pff, this game is really confusing.
How do I get my other skillbars oO

I'm taking a small break now, got griefed by 3 RUScorp ****. My hate for Russians comes from call of duty and seeing as I just got lucky with two frozen hatreds and frenzy off cooldown I killed all three of them. They didn't like it too much and started spawnraping me.

I think I'm level 12 or 13

[[SD]Twysta]

No discs today...

I can play tho Still on Early Access.

+, come on vent wouter

[woutR]

I was on vent for a few hours but no1 came
I'll join now and will prolly stay on it for the rest of the evening, gonna try to hit 20 today.

Is there something I'm missing about quests btw: mine don't seem to give me any xp?
I've just been grinding cause I only get (crap) items from the quests and no xp.

edit: I joined channel 5, they don't seem to know you but nice guys.

[Nuklear]

Hit 35, almost 36, and I just got an abundance of new/upgraded spells. 3 new ones and 4 were upgraded. Man, I feel like a badass. Will upload more ss later.

[woutR]

I am level 18 after a day playing and boy I am fed up right now.

The Necromancer class is so broken it's not funny any more. It's a damage over time class that has the HP of a glass canon.
My upgraded spells do 1-3 more damage for over 100% extra mana cost. So basically I am supposed to level my necro with the exact same skills I got when I entered this game at level 1.
Each time I rezone I have to resummon all of my minions.
Every 5 minutes I have to put up my runed flesh shield, without it I die.
If I go all out and put Flesh of Worms + My AoE dot + AoE fear + lifestrike (I am oom now fyi) I still can't beat a player target.
To win I need at least 15 seconds worth of freecast time cause my only mana efficient spells have 2,5 sec and 1,5 sec cast time with a cooldown.

I would be very surprised if someone at FunCom actually levelled this class to 80 and said: "Yeah, we did a great damn Farking job!!"

[Nuklear]

That sucks you've had a bad experience. I haven't played any class but the ToS so I can't give my opinion but for my server it seems to be one of the more popular classes. If you're not having fun switch classes.

[Skyve]

Is there any fancy/fantasy like armor in this game o_o
I mean everyone look alike,like a half naked roman armor,

[Nuklear]

Nothing too sci-fi, but there probably will be really cool sets, which pretty much goes without saying.

[MrFudge]

So is this living up to the hype so far? I'm lookin to play my first real non-f2p MMO and this is lookin to be the best one. No way in hell would I play WoW i can't stand those graphics.

[woutR]

gah, spent like 2-3 hours being level 20. I apparently had to do the singeplayer night shit oO
Good thing you can skip them when you´re high level, would´ve taken me even longer.

I´m somewhere in the desert now, decided to stick with a necro

[[SD]Twysta]

decided to stick with a necro

Told ya

Edit: What do you guys think? Should i leave the information in the first post? There's a really useful link on the official website with 100's of useful video's, i might post that. Plus, some screenshots.

These 2 will be on there:

Spoiler!

[woutR]

oeh the first screenshot is nice

My computer can't run it that well eventhough I have a good pc. 8800GT e8400 @ 3GHz and 2 gig ram.
I get small lagg spikes and when I turn it on to high settings I get like 20-30 fps.
I think my pc should be well able to run this on high settings, I'm considering a format or something. Get this thing all clean and fast

edit:

here is my mastress of death

Spoiler!

[avanti42]

Can the characters jump?

one thing i like about WoW is the jumping =P

[the.unseen.]

Ya.

[Nuklear]

47 and the Fields of the Dead are just boring the hell out of me. Can't wait to get out of this repetitive shithole. Can't believe the only thing they fixed this morning was a bank bug that's only important to a very small amount of players.
