Age of Conan Server List

15 May, 2008 (19:23) | Age of Conan, All | 3 comments

Well it’s finally here.  The servers have been named for Age of Conan.  Notice there are lots more PvE servers then PvP.  The FFA PvP’ers seem to have the loudest voice but the PvE servers have always been more popular, especially if it still offers some form of PvP.  They ask the question “Why so […]

As Tobold mentions, us Australian players of MMOs unfortunately have to play on servers 10,000 miles away, since no MMOG that I know of has any servers located in or near to Australia.  This means that for me, I frequently experience pings of 200-400 ms, and often higher.  Tabula Rasa generally pings around 500ms or […]

Good vs Evil

Tobold discusses how Alliance outnumbers Horde on most of World of Warcraft’s servers and whether the same will apply to Warhammer: Age of Reckoning between Chaos and Order and the ramifications.  I couldn’t help but reminisce about Dark Age of Camelot.
When I first started playing DAoC I played Albian on the Pellinor server.  The term […]

Much like Keen I was contemplating the value of purchasing the Limited Edition copy of Age of Conan versus the regular version.  Here’s what you get with the Limited Edition.
Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures - Limited Edition includes:

In game items: Ring of Acheron gives the player higher XP points & Drinking Cape gives free drinks […]

Age of Conan Class Poll

10 May, 2008 (02:06) | Age of Conan, All | No comments

This poll was taken from the official Age of Conan forums.  Notice the most popular class is the Assassin followed by the Conquerer.  The least popular is the Demonologist and the Priest of Mitra.  Not surprising when the game’s highlights are its PvP and its melee combat system.  Perhaps once spellweaving is implemented we may see […]

Age of Conan Combat System

For those people that might not be familiar with Age of Conan’s new revolutionary combat system, here is a video featuring a good explanation of how it all works.  Combat never looked so good for the melee types, but what I’d like to know is will the casters be getting any love.

Here’s a video discussing the different types of PvP mini games that you’ll find in Age of Conan.

Mashing Your Buttons

Wow.  Controversy.  Not since Tipa’s comment on Age of Conan’s boobies has there been such an outcry.  Alex Taldren is stirring the pot this time with his comments on Age of Conan’s “revolutionary” combat system and Keen cops most of the flak.  When I first read his comment I was angry at some of his generalisations but […]
