Take a lot more than that to get me back fuckers. I paid $70CA for the damn game and $15US per month for 3 months and it was a huge waste. Lower the price and give me 6 free months and I'll consider it. Otherwise, Funcom can suck my dick.

Now that Ao has elminated all of the major bugs - 8 fucking months after release - they can begin to focus on balancing. One of my freinds told me that they dont even have the agent working yet - what a fucked up game. It could have been a contender though, if only it wasnt released a year before it should have been.

this is actually just a scam to get more subscribers, Not the obvious.
They have in fine print you need a credit card and YOU have to cancel it within 7 days or it AUTOMATICLY charges your card. (so if you forget to cancel then they are that much richer for them doing basicly nothing)

Just a way to get more money whether you like the game or not

This is actually a decent game now. More fun than DAOC for me anyway.

I still think AC is a better game than either one, just not as pretty.
