Well I've just bought it, should be here Monday

Looks like WoW, but with like an oblivion engine and lifelike physics. Even has a "Button Bashing" combat system instead of point and click.

Anyone got this game?

Is it just overrated crap?

Pff, I want NC back :p Also I want to buy out NC and re-build it from the ground up with a top o-the line engine etc... Also I want nine wives and a palace...

Ah a man can dream...

Might try Conan if I get bored

oh i have to ask btw... is it really 32GB installation ? :O

Me and a few mates are buying it in next couple of days. I played and enjoyed the beta.

It's a completely different animal to NC, and it is good! It's just not NC.

DrRisk
25-05-08, 18:57
you need 32gb but the full install with patches is about 21

Thanks



I WOULD be playing Age of Conan today, yet it's bank holiday monday and i forgot...

Should have gone out and bought the bloody game tbh

However "pre-ordering" (I did it one day before it came out, so it still counts :p) the game from Play.com gets me a free epic war elephant mount ! :lol:

they any good?

Ok shameless plug for Age of Conan:

I'm playing on Cimmeria the RP-PVP server for North America (character: Jack). It's free for all pvp, like Neocron. So far conflicts are ruled by either guild politics or with odd pkers who kill just about anyone. I'm 'really' enjoying it so far..

Mirroshades is there (under name Bloodfire Syndicate), so is "The Gang", which I believe is the oldschool Neocron clan.

Game was really good until level 55. After that it's a pure grind-fest. So boring.

There's no endgame content yet either, and itemisation is a hit-and-miss.

Classes need some major balancing. I take back everything I ever said about PSI Monks...

Give the game a few months before trying it, I suggest.

nobby
05-06-08, 11:26
I can see i've got nothing to look forward to with high lvl armour...lol

I'm only lvl 25 atm, been trying most classes to lvl 5 to find one i felt was more "for me."

I'm using a bastard of a rogue I have managed to kill lvl 36 people when i was at 21, i think the Magic classes seem underpowered, though maybe i was lucky because i got the first strike.

What server you guys all on?

Twilight "Culture PVP server" FTW !

Sounds like a ranger sir. Overpowered and destined for the nasty nerf bat. ABANDON IT BEFORE IT'S NERFEDDDD

be a few months before i sort a reliable ISP so i may well give this a try then, hopefully the balancing as you suggest may be addressed by then :)

Reminds me of the look of Dark Age of Camelot for some reason - just too tired of the fantasy setting for MMOs, looking forward to a change of genre like Black Prophecy.

I have to admit, the engine is great - and the gfx are sexy.

I finally made it to lvl 80. That last grind from lvl 78 - 80 had me pulling my locks out...

The PvP is really fun. Not as skill based as NC, but far more so than WoW, or any of your other carebear mmos.

Instances and Raids seem good so far, they will be much better when Itemisation is sorted (which they say will happen next week).

I recommend you give it a try, just don't rush to 80, it ain't worth it yet.
And don't cancel your NC sub :P

yep uber ain't I :p

so fun... prowl a group of people, when one breaks away from the group, run at him, stab him in the back, and hide until the next guy breaks off too ^^

I killed a group of 5 people 6lvls higher than me :D

Your attempted troll just failed. And no Conan is not a copy paste of WoW go and play it.

o.O Funny, they do look very similar. Then again most games are like that, Dark Age, Tabula Rasa, Lineage II, etc. That same leveling bar at the bottom. People are to level 80 in 2 weeks and then the game finally begins. Endless raids.

anybody play on soulstorm - pvp ?

i play here with loads of soldierz, the pvp is fuckin awesome

Selendor
28-06-08, 22:18
Conan is still a beta as far as I can see, the end content isn't there properly. Will wait to see how the game develops.

Spike get the Soldierz back to Neocron, its cheaper after the server move next week.

spikeownzu
28-06-08, 22:23
most mmorpgs at release are bumpy, neocron is like its still in beta too, funcom are bringing fix patchs out thick and fast so i think its promising.

btw, does clipping still exist?

we have one the strongest guilds on soulstorm, not going anywhere ;)

i enjoy the pvp too much 1v1 and group pvp is awesome, and theres a big pvp patch soon

got me a 76 assasin and 63 tempest of set

.... you got something twisted up really bad, me thinks.

Conan has this funny little thing called rangers...

they go pow, and then you cant move, all you can do is stand and look at them kill you in 3 easy steps.

whatever shit those things pull, it's way worse than holy glue.

Age of Conan is a nice game to play a little off once in a while. but as for pvp... it's not even on the scale of neocrons.

However, if you were to put them on the same scale.


Fun and fairness

play past level 40

classes balance out, rangers are hugely OP pre level 40 for pvp

they balance out at 80

neocron pvp is the best i'v had, but there are't enough players and clipping destroys the fun

DrRisk
29-06-08, 00:02
Where as assassins become useless piles of shit past 40, well they would be better if the DAMN ITEMS WERE FIXED AND GAVE THE PROPER STATS

29-06-08, 00:13
ahah, i have a level 76 assasin, they suck for pve and group pvp thats true

but i'v only lost about three 1v1 fights with my sin, and i'v had countless 1v1's

sins must get tweaked soon i'm sure =/

29-06-08, 00:15
Rangers are pretty weak, sure they can root you, but once you get free its one combo and cc before they drop.

Assassin's are just terrible.

Guardians and barbs rape ass.

29-06-08, 00:55
well, what servers are you guys on ????

come to soulstorm ;)


tos, pom, bs, hox, demo, barb = pwnage classes

bear shaman rocks, only lost a few 1 on 1's with my assaisn and one was to a bs in my guild

but you don't get your "main skills" until level 15, when you hit 15 with any mage or healer class they become about x10 better..
