Thanks for the heads up, just checked on my account and found it, haven't received an email about it. I look forward to checking out the new content
ANyone know if this free offer gives you access to the new added zones? I Dl'd AOC last night but haven't loaded it up yet.

You get Gateway for free, but the rest of the zones are part of their respective paks. Khitai is part of Godslayer, while Turan (Isle) is part of the Turan pak.
I was trying to buy funcom points to buy the turan adventure pack, my card didn't work for some reason so they banned me ???? Not a great way to go about things.
For how long do we hear this bullsh*t now? 4 years?
I enjoy the spell graphics and melee gameplay of AoC, but Funcom can make you want to beat your head against the desk at times.
Well Volgore - this time its due to the F2P model they implemented half a year ago. It has had a substantial effect. Log on and you will see for your self. Its free.....

The 30 day offer does re-subscribe you to the game.You will start being billed after the 30 days.....unless....you cancel before being billed.
Effect of taking forum activity and X fire to an all time low. They do get new people is just they can't keep very many of them.
That is pretty shaddy that you must unsubscribe or be billed but after all the failed marketing campaigns, movie, ftp, x pac, it doesn't look like many people came back this time.
One good thing I can say about AoC is:
It has a glorious engine.
Other than that, Funcom has been going straight to the spam filter on my email accounts for years now.
After having a closer look at the details of their F2P model I can see why. They not only restrict content to those currently subscribing, but even basic game functions like sending tells and access to chat channels. Former subscribers and customers of the x-pacs have nothing on completely f2p players after their sub runs out, how lame.
If AoC resembled LotRO's f2p model I'd give it another shot, but like this I'll pass and given FunCom's history to piss paying customers off as hard as possible I certainly won't resub. Reading about them automatically billing you after the free veteran month I guess little changed in that regard...
Agreed their free to play model is way to restrictive even worse than eq2 which is pretty bad and yes Lotro has one of the best free to play models out there. I had bought their first expansion awhile ago and I dont get credit for it ----OUTRAGE!!!!!
