Some cool new features coming along with the next expansion to World of Warcraft “Wrath of the Lich King”, no doubt aimed at fending off serious competition from Age of Conan.  For example, some of the new quest mechanices they are …

I’ve heard the cries of many gamers who are unable to login and play Age of Conan due to a authentication failure during login. According to FunCom, this is in large part due to not properly registering your key from the retail box to your account if you were an Early Access player, like me. …

AoC is a very polished and bright game. The launch was the best I’ve ever seen in an MMO with smooth gameplay and a fairly small number of major issues. No launch is ever likely to be perfect. That being said, the Early Access was disheartening to say the least. If you are in the …

I, like a fool, have been trying the ‘/claim’ command in game to try to get my pre-order items.  I ordered the Collector’s Edition from BestBuy and have yet to receive the actual box of the game.  I finally realized today that I won’t be able to use my in-game pre-order items with the claim …

Well, I spent most of Saturday trying to figure out my graphics problem just so I could get into the game.  After I finally got in late Saturday night, I was able to play a bit but even after the shader fix mention in my previous post, the graphics were still funky.  Shadows under objects …

Seeing as how so many people seem to be onboard with the Early Access in AoC, I thought it would be cool to get a group of people together for some mayhem early on.  The big debate for me was whether to go into a PVE or PVP server.  I read Tim’s post …

As predicted, when I woke up this morning the download client reported download complete and I began installation before heading into work.  Gotta love Funcom, the installation message “This will take a long time” haha.  Anyway, if you haven’t already tried the auto pause/resume method using the AI Robot or some other macro tool, I …
