Age of Conan Launches 'Re-evaluation Campaign,' Invites Old Players Back with Free Playtime

Free play!? FXCK YES! Excellent marketing maneuver! I've been wondering how much has changed and especially wanted to see the DX10 stuff in action, and now I don't have to drop down $30 (for a time card) to do it. Hooray!

That said, I doubt I'll resubscribe, whatever the case. Aion kinda has my attention now.

Is this the campaign that makes the game fun?

Sure, I'll come back for a couple of weeks. What's the worst that can happen?

lol i reinstalled the game and have a huge 12 gig patch to download...sounds fun plus you cant seem to pause the patch downloader it goes back to the start if you quit...crazy..i was hoping to check it out again for 2 weeks.

Is there a way to download the patch without having to leave it running all the time it would take 12 hours to download it says:(

Updated the game, logged in ran around checked a few things out on my 80 ToS, logged out - logged back in on my 73 Necro...game looks better than ever visually, pv p seems much much better, the items are much easy to understand now too, seems to have smoother game play over all, but the new content is mostly ho-hum as far as interaction goes, AoC from the start to me has amazing graphics, great plot / storyline and characters, and a host of other really cool thing, character customization really stands out in this game, but over all it still just ends up feeling like it's missing something. I've played most popular mmo's from the old EQ days all the way to D&D and some WoW /EQ2/FFII and a host of others, AoC is really a good game it just doesn't keep me coming back for more very often...whats next?

I tryed to reinstall the game not long ago ... freaking 5gig of patch + corrupted installating + cheezy file validator ... fuck that turdware

too little too late, game's been deleted. you had your chance funcom!

Why not?

O hell no.

I might have to give it a shot, the idea that you can create a level 50 right away is cool. The biggest drag of the game was that once you left Tortage the whole thing changed. If you can skip some of the monotonous crap of leveling with there being no story maybe it would make up for the complete break in immersion with instanced everything.

Similar to the AO days ...

I remember them giving away boxses of AO at E3 one year.
