AOC - MMORPG Disaster August 9, 2008 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
AOC is the worst MMORPG I've have ever played in terms of the following items, in order or severity:
1) MASSIVE memory leak issue leading to constant lag by all but those that have way more processing power than required for the game. 2) Inability or refusal of Funcom (maker of AOC) to deal with the massive memory leak issue, instead focusing on ridiculous items to fix each week. 3) Horrible and lengthly list of game bugs, many many quests are broken, items don't work, crafting system in shambles. 4) PvP completely non-functional. "PvP" servers should be renamed "ganking" & PvE servers should be renamed "non-ganking" since this is the ONLY difference between the 2 types. The only PvP system that works is a premade scenario that is initiated and completed manually by someone advertising constantly in open chat for people to please join a premade group. If you enter a pug que for pvp minigames you can wait 9 hours or more for your turn. 5) Serious lack of raid content at game end. I hear lvl 80's all the time advertising "looking for anything to do" - desperation has set in. 6) Major patches occuring once a week now (at game release they had to have two patches a week). Most patches require more patches to fix the poorly thought out patches. 7) RAPIDLY declining membership to AOC make group play all but impossible. 8) Appears the beta testers were as drunk AND stupid as the game designers. 9) No auto-attack style or "Stick" command places melee class characters at a SEVERE disadvantage to casting type classes. Melee chain combos are extremely difficult to make work in a pvp situation. 10) Even the AOC core "fan boys" have been silent lately with the non-stop complaints about the severe problems with AOC being expressed daily in open channel chat.
Save yourself a headache and go outside and enjoy the real world for the next month while we await the release of Warhammer, since there is nothing worth a crap out there currently in the MMORPG world to play in......
Age of Incomplete August 8, 2008 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
no dx10 yet, maybe in a few months, siege battles do not work/exist, everything is buggy, there is no skill as damage is based on items/gold farming. What you can afford determines your damage. There are constant spams from gold farmers. Very little to do. Low population so there are few people to do it with.
1-20 is great, awesome, spectacular, after that the game is a joke
Pretty, but not all there. August 6, 2008 4 out of 6 found this review helpful
The game is great, up untill lvl 40, then classes become gimpped. There is no end game content, and each patch breaks the game even more.
The combo system is great, PvP could be fun, but the class imbalance ruins it (I mean, the tank class with the most hp and armor should not be one shotting other soldier classes, or even squishies for that matter), unless your a guardion or a healer, PvP is one sided.
The client has been riddled with issues like memory leaks and instability. Don't expect to see the wonderful grafixs unless you have a really good computer. Although advertised with DX10, the game currently only works on DX9, and has issues with SLi set up cards, and ATI cards. after 40, the story ends, and the grind begines.
Does not live up to the hype August 5, 2008 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
Age of Conan isn't exactly a 'bad' game, but it certainly does not live up to the hype which surrounded it before the release. There are bugs, lack of content, balance issues and patches that often do not make sense.
Worth getting the game if you are looking for something a bit different and don't mind waiting months or even years for a fully 'polished' version.
A trainwreck in slow motion August 4, 2008 5 out of 10 found this review helpful
This is the worst MMO I've ever played, period. I don't care how "early" this game is, it was pushed out the door while it was still alpha quality now we have the privilege of paying to test for Funcom.
Class balance is a joke, end game content consists of finding another player to 1 or 2-shot (kill in 1 or 2 hits), then getting 1 or 2 shotted yourself, then doing it all over again. PvP in this game consists of sitting at a spawn point and ganking other players before they can heal up.
Massive PvP is a joke - sieges are a 5fps slideshow with over 1000ms ping times when all 96 players are on screen. It's not actually possible to win a siege due to bugs.
Endgame raiding is also broken, it's not possible to beat a number of the bosses unless you exploit them.
Crafting doesn't work - the quests are endlessly bugged as are the recipes.
Oh, did I mention the memory leaks and frequent client crashes? Broken quests? Half-working auction house system? Annoying mail system (this thing was designed to piss you off, you'll understand if you ever use it).
In short, the game isn't done - and it probably won't be done for another year or so. The parts that are done are either intentionally designed to frustrate you, or they were designed and coded at 8:45am before a 9:00am patch - they're not well thought out at all.
In short, stay far away, there are _many_ better options out there.
Other missing features: PvP system, DX10
