Okay. Just ordered my copy of Aoc. With all the server crap going on, what server is well populated and most likely wont get folded into another?? (And for all the people who will write “don’t pick any kuz the game sucks… Your time is better spent back in the WOW forums..)

Are you playing on the US or the EU servers?
Are you looking for a PVE, PvP, PvP-RP server.... ?
One of the most populated Euro servers is Crom (PVE). But with the new PvP changes you'll be likely to prefer a pvp server. Of the 2 Euro PvP-RP servers, Aquilonia is the most populated (but both, Aquilonia and Corinthia, will probably be merged together).
US servers:
PvE: Set, Wiccana and Thog have got multiple posts and vodeos out with a good deal of action
PvP: Cimmeria,Deatwisper,Tyrrany + others as well (look for more detail in the AoC forums
I have heard that Derketo, Ajujo, Damballah and Bane has low population so I would guess those are the servers to be moved sometime in future (just my wild guess as gamer)
Thanks. I think I will go for Set.
Set is a great server, as far as PVE servers go.
I may even re-sub some day, when the game is finished....
I remember back in 1999, folks kept asking me if I was stockpiling food. I always answered, "No, I'm stockpiling ammo and making a list of people who are stockpiling food"
I think you can get it from a local software store for like 19.99 now. Ordering it still costs full price.
Some people are like slinkies, they dont really have a purpose, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.
Last time i played, Chimeria was a good one.

Full price at every location I've seen it at in this city.

Sorry to hear you wasted $50 on this.
sorry you feel that it was a waste.
Personally, I got more than 2 weeks of entertainment out of it, which is worth $50.
Think about it. How many single-player titles have we all purchased in our lives, that we played for a few days, beat, and put on the shelf?
If I can get a month's entertainment out of a game, it's $50 well spent, imo.

Yeah i feel like i wasted 50 bucks but when i think about the hours of time that i did play and enjoyed it over 10 hours which in movie standards of 2 hours a movie. at either $8 dollars a ticket or where im at $10 dollars a ticket. And I'm positive i had 24 Hours of Gameplay ecstasy. So looks to be ok that i wasted 50 big ones on AoC. Which at the movies for same kind of entertainment would set me back 120 and thats just for me not my lady.
Just so everyone knows... I bought it on ebay! So nobody needs to worry about my financial situation. lol

Ut's funny isn't it. The trolls are so considerate when it comes to those 50$ of this game...LOL.... So who of you considerate helpers above, have really tried out AoC avter patch 2.0? OP how did you like it?
I'm suprised it worked then, thats rather risky with MMO's , becouse of the keys and accounts.

I've bought plenty of games and keys (time cards, etc) on eBay. Assuming you are talking about selling used keys... yes, it happens, but it's kind of stupid to try to rip people off on eBay because you can only really get away with it a few times, if anyone ever reads feedback before dealing with a seller.
I actually pre-ordered the CE before launch and never used it. It's sitting on my shelf. I'm waiting to see what happens with the game in the upcoming future. Plus, as you can see, people are still buying the game and I've noticed that all of the AoC CE + Mammoth Mount auctions have reduced dramatically. I might be able to get away with putting it up and getting rid of it for a little profit.
If not, w/e. I've spent unwisely and that's lesson.

I have have purchased AoC and will start playing shortly. I think the game sounds and looks very good. It also has a good and big community.
Welcome Brother. Check out newcomers sections in forums for players info on hopping servers.
I used this post in Newcomers section in AoC forums to get advice on servers from people already in the game.forums.ageofconan.com/showthread.php It list many servers that is good for PvE.
Did you have a chance to test AoC yet? Let us know what you think once you have got the time to test it some.
Been playing AOC for a few weeks now. I like it! The only problems I have are minor. The biggest is the liner feel to the world… What I mean by that is hitting invisible walls and canyons that “guide” you to the destination. I remember in SWG that the entire world felt open to explore. Also the same in LOTRO. There are few “hills” you can’t just walk up in LOTRO. I am constantly being guided to the path that the game wants me to take in Conan. So, that’s my take of the first 25 levels. I would suggest to anyone thinking of playing to give er a try.

Fair opinion. If your mid level now, in a short while Ymirs Pass new content zone for aimed for players around lvl 55 will be coming - testing it on the test server at the moment and its a truly spectular zone!
Remember to check out the re-done Black Castle / Pyramid of the Ancients and the sewers under Tarantia which all had a make over.
My condolences hope you get your full month of play time. Be very careful what you post on there forums.

I think that the sentiments are well placed because of the enjoyment your getting at the moment. It's good to hear. However, I think that people will mainly take a real good second look once patch 3 goes in and wait for more feedback in that regard.
{ Mod Edit }
I am two weeks into the game now. I am currently into the field of the dead, Lvl 39. It's a bit hefty, but ohh man I love this zone. Look forward to come back when I am in a bit higher level. I'm going back to wild lands of Zaleta for a bit more Questing meanwhile. Great game.
Yes, I like Field of the Dead too. Best zone in AoC hands down. Big open area, lots of mobs. This is how all the zones should be. Too bad it only lasts for 10 levels, and after that, zones become really boring.
The zone I hate most is Kheshatta. It's just an ugly place with ugly mobs and boring quests. Really boring. And it's the only lvl 80 zone in the game so you are stuck there!
