Hey, is anyone out there running in the Beta of Age of Conan. I can't say I was all that thrilled at first when I heard of it, but looking at their website, there is a lot of nice looking things in the game.
Anyone playing the Beta? If so, how is it?

I saw that Venus was in it. Haven't heard of anyone else though. Was wanting to check it out and see what it was like. Have heard 50/50 things about it. Some good, some not so good.

I dropped out of the AoC beta only because it became unplayable for me. I was shocked at all the bugs still in the game with only a few weeks to launch. Then I snooped the webs and found a few blogs comparing Open Beta with Closed and found out OB is a much older client and quite buggy. CB is 180 degree difference from OB. I guess FunCom's reason for older client use is to stress test the servers but, man, not a good way to make a first impression with your potential customers. All in all it had a good beat and I could dance to it but then the record kept skippin'.

With how crappy Funcom did Anarchy Online they will have to really do a polished product for me to even consider looking at it. I was not impressed at all with there last MMO offering.

I was in the stress test, but it being a beta, u can no judge how it will be when it releases. But from what i saw, the first 20 levels are pretty much a storyline/single player missions/quests. After level 20, u leave the starting area, and from what i know, that when the fun starts. The Open beta only goes to level 13, but i received an e-mail that everyone is going to be bumped up to level 20 and put at their races home cities, for all out PvP before the release.
But IMO the game looks very promising! The melee combat is very interesting as it is a new system. But to play this game, i do suggest having a higher end machine.!

The melee system and combat system in AOC is different from wow. More hands-on is required. On Torbold's BLog, he says that you realize you need Macros from all these options, spells, etc.. APparently, you have to click a lot.

Click a lot. Yeah, that was one minor negative. I lost many a battle because I couldn't click fast enough

P.S.
I will second the notion for needing a high-end machine. Intel dual core, nVidia 8800 GTS 512mb (SLI would be greater) and at least 2 gigs ram for XP, 4 in Vista and you are good to go. Oh, one more thing, the down load client was a heafty 13gigs. Install space needed was 32 gigs and finally settled at 24 gigs HD space after install. Whew!

Well guys I thought I might warn those who are still on the fence about this game, ALOT of the stuff they claim is in the game is not functioning ATM. I'd recommend people check the AOC forums some before actually buying the game, or at least wait a few months for some of the bugs to be ironed out.
This game really should still be a beta...

Sounds like typical Funcom BS just like they crap they pulled with Anarchy Online.
Thanks for the update. The next MMO I am looking forward to is Warhammer I have that one pre-ordered already.
