Welcome again fellow barbarians! You surely heard that our favorite game became free to play right? It’s mean that we don’t have to pay money in order to play in the game. Because its f2p system varies from other f2p games, let’s talk about AoC being F2P.
First of all, you will discover much more content on offer than the title was shipping during it’s premiere, and most of it is open to all players, not only premium ones. Every area from the AoC is free to enjoy, gamers are able to complete numerous of fantastic missions and it’s even possible to level your way up to level 80, which is level cap. But there are lot limitations like smaller number of available classes, possibility to create just two characters and even more. Besides you can ride the horses which require the Basic Riding ability by default.
When you complete creating your character and enter to amazing world of Conan, you begin on-board a slave ship like everyone, who you will meet in AoC. But captain of this ship is definitely nto the lucky one, storm is coming and ship is being destroyed leaving you to drown in the dark depths of the ocean. But you have luck and survive. You are waking up on the beach of the island of Tortage without remembering anything – what it means for you is fresh start. First thirty-minutes is totally  single-player. During the first 15 to 25 hours while playing in the game, you are completing quests that gradually help you discovering more about your past, and then you come back to your home in order to begin piecing together the rest of your last, forgotten life.
Quests in Age of Conan will remind you other existing MMORPGs, where you have to visit and revisit various locations until you level up enough until you will be able to face the current zone final boss, who resides on the single-player side of the game, so you’ll have to fight with him on your own (what’s good, enemies don’t respawn while there’s night side). You’ll have to normally get rid animals and mobs along with collecting some desired by quest-giver amount of items. But it varies from other games - these collections or annihilation tasks seem to have more of a true reasons in completing them over various MMO’s. You don’t have to just to click on “accept” – you can show what you think about it, which grants your character with some personality.
Another feature which makes Age of Conan one of the most interesting titles in whole market is combat system. Generally speaking, if you won’t take active role during the fight, you will die. You won’t find any auto-attack button and fighting stance signs showing the direction your opponent is weak, so you have to deal him more damage by attacking his weaker points. Moreover, good usage of available combos grants you with possibility of making just unbelievable damage. As you are playing, depending on the weapon you can make a spectacular fatality on your enemy, like chop his head off. Such features as fatalities are also connected to gore part of game, which is indeed severing of limbs and various decapitations. Beside blood splattering everywhere, get ready to see bare-breasted women running around and larger part of playing readers will rather surely agree that its really fun.
What you may also add to more interesting features, instead of having your character stuff their face with food and drink every minute in order to regenerate your health, you have to turn on the rest skill which takes about few of seconds for your character in order to replenish hit points. Anyway, there’s more to AoC than just strategic gory battling and hot women. Playing you will meet another depth to the game which is just incredible, including some of the most advanced visuals on MMO market, gripping music and sound FX available. Age of Conan Unchained  - It’s really tough to find another game with such incredible atmosphere, graphics and music as this one.

Bored with Age of Conan? Don’t want to try out something new? You know, you can later come back to Age of Conan ya know.
In abstract online strategy games, the game is just a bit tied to a real-world theme, if at all. The mechanics do not attempt to simulate reality, but rather serve the internal logic of the game.
One of the most focused team strategy games is ‘Contract Bridge’. This card title consists of two teams of two players, whose offensive and defensive abilities are continually in flux as the game’s dynamic progresses like in best online strategy games. Part of people argue that the benefits of playing this team strategy card game extend to those abilities and strategies used in business and that the checking out of these games aid to automate strategic awareness.
Abstract games cannot be finally divided from simulations and so games can be thought of as existing on a continuum of almost total abstraction (like Abalone) to almost pure simulation (like Strat-o-Matic Baseball).
A strategy game or strategic game is a title (e.g. computer, board or video one) in which the gamer’s decision-making abilities have a large significance in determining the outcome.
Free online strategy games often give the player to spend goods on upgrades or research. Some of these upgrades make better the player’s whole economy. Other upgrades apply to a unit or class of units, and unlock or enhance certain fighting abilities. From time to time enhancements are enabled by building a structure that gives more high-tech structures which is typical in free online strategy games.
Standardly, wargames have been enjoyed either with miniatures, using physical models of detailed terrain and miniature representations of people and equipment to depict the title state; or on a board, which standardly uses cardboard counters on a hex map.
Discovery is a fundamental element in most free online strategy games. The landscape is often shrouded in darkness, and this darkness is lifted as a player’s units enter the zone. The skill to explore may be inhibited by different genre of terrain, such as hills, water, or other obstructions.
A purist’s information about an abstract strategy game needs that it cannot have random elements or hidden information. This describe includes such games as Chess and Go. However, many games are normally classed as abstract strategy games which do not meet these criteria. GAn example is Stratego.
Wargames are simulations of military fights, campaigns or entire wars. Players will have to consider situations that are alike to the situations faced by leaders of historical fights. As such, war games are usually tough on simulation elements, and while they are all " online strategy games", they can also be "strategic" or "tactical" in the military jargon dialogue.
The term "Strategy" has born in Greece, ultimately from Greek, "Strategia," which means Generalship. It varies from "Tactics" in that it refers to the general scheme of things whereas "Tactics" refers to organization and execution.

Check out these quite interesting tips for Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures. Maybe some of them

Remember that there is no auto attack. Now you must press a key for each attack! Just like in good old beat em ups on the arcades. You can attack by pressing keys 1-3, as long as you are using the default bindings.

Stealth gets better the more points you invest in the skill. Just press “H” to hide. This skills is really spectacular one. Especially if you are playing as Assassin or Barbarian or any other class with thick armor. Make this skill high! Remember to use this skill far away from torches and stuff like that!

You must attack enemy with special attack to increase chance for fatality. When you’ve got higher level then monster or enemy, let’s say 4-5 higher, your chance for critical is getting higher. In Age of Conan you can farm for gold and make fatalities on weak monsters.

You access the skills tab by pushing P. Click the + and - keys in the top right pane to invest in skills. You get more as you level up.

You can easily farm all enemies for more experience points and Age of Conan. Just farm monster 3-4 level lower then your character-avatar. If your character can use AoE attacks, things are very easy.

With J you can bring up your quest log. You can set a quest as active through it by simply selecting the quest from the list on the left tab.

Best class for Age of Conan gold farming is Demonologist or any class with cool AoE (Area-of-Effects) skills or spells.

You can’t play with other gamers in Night Mode. This mode is only active at single player type of adventure. Playing solo in MMORPG isn’t best way to have fun but still can be good if you are looking for break or something like that

Type /emote and hit Tab to bring up a list of EMOTES! Most of emotes are bad, or broken, but sometimes you can find, working emote. If you know the full name of the emote, you can also just type it in manually.

Age of Conan in-game world appears to be very instanced. If you’re in the party with someone and they aren’t standing next to you, just use /instanceselection, and both of you need to choose the same instance to go to.

See you again

Well, Age of Conan was one of the most interesting mmo created in 2008. With great and beatyful graphic effect, cool game play and brutal combat, AoC was game "created for huge world success"..but..something went wrong. After spectacular premiere and almost 1,5 millions of selled copies, Age of Conan game has very low number of players why? 

Well it’s mostly because game has really large number of irritating bugs. I spoke with some my online friends and all of them agreed that Age of Conan is still so bugged that premiere should be around december but not in May. Main problem is that Age of Conan is victim bugs and also lack of money. Funcom company is smaller company then EA, who released month ago, Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning…Well there is also good news..players can back Age of Conan very soon, Funcom must eliminate most of bugs and maybe then Age of Conan will be one of the most influential MMO in world? Time will…

In Age of Conan we are able to built our own town. When you or your guild obtain some terrain, you are able to construct various of buildings like stable or town walls. Members of guild must gather all necessary resources like wood or stone, iron and gold to fulfill this task. When you are constructing your town, then you should be careful – band of NPC can attack you and your town.

So first:

-          We must buy terrain and gather resources
-          Then built barracks, forge, town hall etc
-          We can hire NPC guards to defend our beloved town

Remember when you obtain terrain BE CAREFUL now! Band of barbarians are very dangerous for your town and they can attack you at any time with ballista or catapult. 

in Age of Conan will be large number of change in game, it should be game new in this genre, so no more rip of from WoW. Today i want to write something about mounts in AoC.

If your character will be above required level you can purchase, mount - for example : mammoth, rhino or horse or (? i don’t know more) you mount can be used in battle and its possible the biggest innovation. If you are picking mammoth your mount will be slow, hard to maneuver  but you will receive gigantic bonus to your health. If you are picking horse, you can maneuver easy on battlefield and fast change your position. But remember when you are dead your mount is also dead and VICE VERSA. Every mount have its on specification and you just need to think before you buy one. I think for the start, horse is a best choice, in combat you will be able to hit your enemies with great damage ( horse are very fast and when you charge - you’ve got great bonus to your damage).

PS

Anyway sorry mates but i’ve got some terrible and scary news! Funcom because of problems with game during beta testing want to change premiere time from March 2008 to 20th may of 2008. I know from articles and beta testers that lots of problems are in combat systems and instances. Another things is you must have great computers to play normal in Age of Conan. Graphic is great but to play you need :

minimum requirements CPU: Core 2 Duo E6600 or equivalent CPU Speed: 2.4Ghz System Ram: 2GB ( from Wikipedia). Ive got only 1.8 ( Athlon 64 AMD 3000 +) 1GB RAM. So in other hand we’ve got some time to buy better PC…

is one of the most interesting character in Age of Conan, this dark warrior, using very powerful dark - magic spells can fight with few others character in the same time and beat them as a tank. His powers are focused on draining life, cursing his enemies - his spells are very selfish - he has lots spells to cast on self and if he cast spell on someone - curse on enemy or drain life from him. His hit points are lesser then hit point of other tank- class characters but higher from "normal" class.

In combat he is a master of one handed weapons. He loves short swords or every blunt weapon. He don’t like any double handed swords or axes. He’s got unique combo system, and if higher is his level - more combos he can use.

After introduction of Dark Templar, Funcom what to deliver some information about other classes, so we must wait for another info see ya 

PS

You Check official website for new special, promo - stuff. Fansite Kit is around 90 mb of music, concept arts, wallpapers and other interesting materials. I downloaded few hours ago this materials and i really like music theme from Age of Conan, its epic and great.

On official site you can also find article about women in AoC. Producers is working really hard to create women in this mmo like never before. Women in Age of Conan will be very close to Howard’s interpretation, she will be hard, tough, fericiou
More then 2000 female moves captered in motion capture, lots of work to create nice clothes and armor, exclusive for our sexy females. Also some screenshots from game with ladys are avaible ( heh mmm delicious ) so take a look. It’s really cool!

did you know that in first day of beta testing - 50 thousands players subscribed?After few days were around 100.000. This mean that Age of Conan should be a big hit…

Some new information about siege battles was added on official site. First of all your guild can built fortress for collected gold ( anyone in guild must pay to guild leaders and then they can built it ), when your fortress will be ready, you can built lots of buildings where all guild - mates can obtain equipment or special building for increasing attributes ( stables can level up your traveling speed by 10% - this bonus is for everyone in guild ). If your keep will be finished you can attack other keep, before you do that, you must built catapults and other siege stuff, then gather boys ( or girls ) from your guild and CHARGE!

As you see this element of game will be very interesting so if you want to have a break - WAR with other guilds. 

is movie from 1982 with Arnold Schwarzenegger as a warrior Conan. In ancient Hybornian era when people live on barbaric steps, Conan was born in cold Cymmeria. Conan lived peacefully until evil, Thuls Doom, killed his parents and all villeagers. After that he became a slave and his childhood is broken into pieces. Years have passed. Adult Conan is selled to gladiator trainer, few years later is most powerfull and most deadly gladiator in all Hybornia. His trainer, as a reward, gived him freedom. Now Conan wants to find Thuls and revenge his parents…movie is really great, brutal and hard but good. Its one of classics with Arnold so everyone who like him - must watch this movie. After 2 years in 1984 was released second part of the Conan adventures - Conan the Destroyer, very light version of first part, for less adult audience.

According to Age of Conan main site, Funcom is preparing for participation in Leipzig Game Convention. This german city is getting more popular and now its one of the best place to promote games in Europe. Game producers want to show the world new siege-battle system - revolutionary in MMORPG genre. Guild will be able to construct, giant fortress and battlekeeps. Of course all members of guild must give some money for that kind of investition.

Also siege eqiupment will be added to battle + regiments for hire ( NPC ).

Creators of AOC will show new very brutal Player - VERSUS - Player system. - sound interesting …..
