anyone else playing it? its pretty badass. rated teen, and has a lot of action. definitely more my style, over wow. the combat system is fucking badass.

I've heard very little about the game, other than one of my buddies in my COD4 CAL team was downloading the advanced copy which caused him to be the lagiest scope I've ever seen.  :P

It is rated Mature.

A lot of my friends at school have moved from wow to aoc.  I haven't decided if I'm going to play it anymore or not. :\

AoC is amazing, after I get hit by the WoW banwave of 08 (along with 375k other people?) I moved over to this yesterday. Level 16 Assassin on US PVP-Sourge.

Name's Screenor. ;)

What level are you, warz?

[warz]

i took a few days break from aoc, in hopes that they fixed some of their major bugs. they haven't fixed anything, yet, but i'm going to start playing again today. i'm still only 21, i think. i'm on deathwhisper, though, along with cefx.

[warz]

yeah, taking a break helped a little bit. i think i expected too much from the game right away. too much wow had me spoiled.

the game isn't so bad, it just need a big UI makeover, and some other minor tweaks.

So is it worth picking up?  I'm thinking I'll probably take up this or WoW for the summer, depending on whether or not I'll have enough time, and I'm pretty sure I will.  Would you recommend this, WoW, or maybe some other game that could keep my attention for a few months?

[warz]

um, depends. if you dont mind putting up with a 'just released' game, then aoc is pretty fun. its much more casual than wow is. you level much quicker. but, i'm not sure how much content there is. there's a lot of complaints about the lack of high level content, right now. its a fun game though. im enjoying it right now.

if you ask me, wow is old, and has been old and repetitive for about a year, now. i dont know about any other games right now, on pc, but id suggest giving aoc a chance if your rig can handle it.

[Screenor]

I'd definitely say AoC, Sidoh. I was actually going to AIM you about it a few days ago telling you to get it. Sucks that all of us will probably end up playing on different servers though.  :'(

Anyway, yeah. Besides a HUGE number of bugs, AoC > WoW by a long shot.

What does WoTLK have that AoC doesn't already?

Does AoC have a free trial like WoW does?  I'd really like to give it a try, but it'd be nice if I didn't have to pay for a month of access I won't use if I end up not liking it.
