age of conan beta!

[MaXThReAT]

Updating game and starting client!!!! WooHoo

[Bman212121]

Good luck Maxthreat, let us know how it goes. I started my DL last night about 8 hours ago, and apparently it's only 33% done.

[MaXThReAT]

Kinda taking a while here to update the game. Getting a pretty sad 20KB. Its been over an hour for 188mb. Ehhh I can wait. I think the gameplay started about 4 min ago. 9AM PST...right.

[nekrosoft13]

downloaded the 12gb yesterday, will install after work.

BTW how big is it after install?

[MaXThReAT]

Just a mild 23.7 GB. I actually unistalled Crysis to make room for this.

Edit: Okay, lame. Finished the 188 patch followed by a 20mb something file and now another two hours for 212mb patch at like 30KB. O well I guess I have to go to work then.

Isn't the beta supposed to start today? I still can't set up an account. The same "site down for maintenance, back in 6 hours" that was there yesterday is still there.

edit: nevermind, got my account. Still more patches I see - thought I was up to speed. Downloading a 16MB patch at a blazing 14KBps..hoo boy.

I wouldn't even think about trying to play until this evening. It seems they are sorting things out.

Remember the level cap in the BETA is 13. I'm looking at this as a chance to test out the classes and see which one I want to level up first.

Yep that's my plan too. :)

Edit: It's been delayed another 2 hours to 6:00 EST :(

Holy crap, this game sounds like a lot of work just to get it going. So after an already mammoth 12GB download there is still a few hundred MB of updates?

[nekrosoft13]

where can you sign up for account, when i try to do update it ask for user name and password.

It is a BETA.

[KasuCode]

its actually a very easy beta setup and install compared to other betas.

Game is good. WoW might be in trouble.

It won't be in trouble. There is enough room in the market for both games to have a solid following.

I for one am done with WoW. Age of Conan is my game now.

[killahsin]

if i could get it to stop randomly crashing i'd agree lol

[nekrosoft13]

so where or how did you people create an account to sign in?

This is the correct link.
https://betaregister.ageofconan.com/account/

You only need to copy and paste your beta key into the "Use a Beta Key" box on the left side of that page.

If you use the regular "create a Conan" account link then you are in the wrong place.

I'll hop on that server. What is your character's name.

I'm going to make a Nekro with the name Chunk, Toad or Snots. Look me up... if those names are not taken.

Obviously those are the highest priority names. :p
