A word to all those trying the open beta. The game client for the open beta is 2 months older than the one on the closed beta...almost all technichal problems and quite a few gameplay shortcomings are already ironed out.

I like the character graphics, extremely detailed, fluid animations, nice textures on the armours and weapons. In the environment, there are a lot of placeholder blurry low-res textures and sprites tho, or too sharp ones, which ruins the visuals. Sometimes if bloom is off i cant decde if a certain bush is 5 or 50 meters away. Its a shame when its obvious that the engine itself is capable of very beautiful sights. Guess all work went on the characters...Btw females are HOT!1

Game definitely has potential, letss see if it develops. Also the setting is the gratest thing in fantasy. :)

Did a preorder of a collector's edition, mah war rhino gunna stomp ya. Mostly did it for tha artbook tho, i have a proffessional interest.

The beta I tried is closed now.
Complicating is the true path to simplicity.

As part of celebrating the release of Age of Conan we are happy to unravel a brand new PvP ruleset that has not previously been disclosed: The Culture PvP ruleset! Note that this new PvP server type is experimental and players on these servers must expect an ongoing change to the ruleset.

The goal of this PvP server-type is to stimulate war behind the three cultures of Cimmeria, Aquilonia and Stygia. As a player on a Culture PvP server, you are shielded from lone travelers of your own culture, however you may still group with any culture and form a group and attack anyone.

The Culture PvP ruleset is an evolving ruleset that will be tweaked and polished based on player-feedback in the months to come. Although it is, at least currently, possible to make guilds across cultures, pure culture groups and guilds will be endorsed on this server, and as such players on the Culture PvP servers must prepare that the future will hold continued changes to the ruleset.

We have changed to ruleset on two servers that were previously flagged as full PvP. The homes for the Culture PvP servers are:


Bane (US)
Twilight (EU)

With best regards,

Funcom
Sweet I am gonna test this server :)

3 hours later then scheduled but the launch was smooth. I am on the Culture PvP server atm (Twilight) and on the PvE server (Crom).

Will have to see how the ruleset will work out on Twilight, if it will be 3 factions questing in the same area's it might be interesting but since I am solo I will probably level up on the PvE server first and PvP in the frontiers/bg's 8)
