I apologize,
I'm lazy and don't feel like looking this game up. I feel compelled to ask... What the hell is this game?!

Re: I apologize,
Don't feel bad if people are too lazy and don't feel like justifying your lack of google skillz with a worthy response.

Re: I apologize,
This is an MMORPG developed by Funcom and produced by Eidos set in Robert Howard's world called Hyboria.
Its main feature is a live action combo based fighting system as opposed to the turn based and skill based fighting systems of EQ or WoW.
I have followed this game for over a year and my EQ2 guild left EQ2 for this game. But they have delayed this game more times then I care to count. Its current release date is March 08 and judging by the Beta they should be on track for this date.
It will have large scale PvP (100-200 players) along with a siege system for taking over player made cities and castles. Think player made cities like how Star Wars Galaxies did Player made cities. And I believe they are working on a formation system too.
Also Drunken Brawling Mini Games
Also M rating = Nipples on Female NPCs and lots of blood and dismemberment
Also 80 LvL starting Cap with an additional 80 levels of PvP to go up
Also PvP modes like CTF and KoTH
Also all of the Conan mythology to draw content from
Take a look at www.ageofconan.com

Re: I apologize,
Thanks, IanTheRed.
Sorry, Delta. I'll change the sticky from "What is Age of Conan:Hyborian Adventures" too "What the hell is this game". It's hard to find info on this game

Hey, at least he started with an apology.

Re: I apologize,
Delta, the main thing drawing me into AoC is that it'll have a more adult look/feel to it. The combat will be brutal and I bet it will be hard to find the color purple in the game.
It's going for a Mature rating. There will be heads and limbs lopped off and possibly a nipple or two!

Re: I apologize,
Hahaha, sorry, I totally didn't even notice that sticky was there. I just saw it on the game list and went to it.

Re: I apologize,
Can someone find some detailed information on the Player cities? I can't seem to find any.
The hungry, ignorant man immediately grasps that he is handed a fish, but is bewildered when handed a net. The man who shivers in the cold thinks happily of the man who invites him to sit by his fire, and somewhat poorly of the man who loans him an axe, flint and steel.

Re: I apologize,
There is very little detailed information as of yet on player cities or battle fortifications. January is going to be a big month for new info! Originally Posted by blackmain

Re: I apologize,
Thanks. The selling point for me will probably be how player made cities and guilds will effect the economy.

Re: I apologize,
Funcom is being pretty secretive about the game so far.
There will be 2 areas in the world (on non open PVP servers) one called the Bloodlands where PvP and sieges will happen and then the rest of the world were players can build cities and level up and do everything else.
Guilds can build Battlekeeps in the Bloodlands and guilds can go to war and take over other guild's keeps.
on the AoC web site search for Friday Updates to view all of the information they have released so far.
if any one is interested in joining a hard core raiding/pvp guild for Age of Conan my guild is still recruiting. www.addictguild.com for more information.
