Age of Conan is now available for pre-order

[Temor]

The game Age of Conan looks really nice from what it shows at http://www.ageofconan.com

Friends of mine have been waiting for that game to get released and it's now set for the 20th of May, 2008. From the description, looks like the melees will be very hard to box if at all. However, the casters may be able to be boxxed. I'm planning to check it out this weekend and will post a follow up on my findings if anyone is interested. May even try Octopus with it.

Just picked up a war rhino and a war mammoth pre-order. :love:

I ordered from gogamer.com they reduce the price by 5 bucks so the $5 dollar early access is included in the cost.

Also, FYI, there is NO /follow in the game atm.

I'm hoping to pick up the war Rhino soon, but none of the Best Buys around here have any preorder boxes.

I'm really hoping AoC will match up to DAoC... back when people played.

Do let us know how well it runs. I'm dying to see how this game turns out relative to Vanguard.

I played both the VG beta and the AOC beta... AoC is no where near as buggy as VG.

I just got into the open beta as well... so Ill report how it fairs and check again for a /follow

Likewise on Open Beta. Myself and 2 of my Friends are commin over May 1st, the wife leaves WITH child for 5 days May 1st. I'm takin Friday off and with luck we'll be vegetating out for 4 days playing AoC Beta. Should get together and run on same server.

Love to hear how you AoC dual-boxing experiments are going since I already ordered two copies of the game....

Like i have said in other posts. I two boxed EQ ( Warrior and cleric ) before they added /follow. I had to run them both and control them both at the same time. It was not easy. in fact it was a pain in the ass. But in eq you normally went to a 'camp" spot and stayed there for hours sometimes. So getting there was sucky but once you got there it was easy mode. Conan not having /follow or even auto attack or auto targeting wont stop me from playing two acnts. Ill figure out a way to get use out of a healer.. even if hes just a tradeskill/bank bot. I think if enough people talk about it.. they will add /follow at some point. There are "non multibox" reasons to have /follow. I ordered two CEs hehe...oh well..we'll see!



ohh and im in the open beta as well!

Well if you arent using it already Keyclone will be helpful even without /follow if you have a single box. At least you can keep characters running in the same direction with a single button. Syncronized combos will probably be dificult to pull off without some configuring.
