Hey Everyone,
I just had a quick question. I was going to sign up for the beta for AoC, but I don't run vista yet. I am assuming you can't get into beta without running vista, am I correct?

Always do the right thing
You can get in with XP or Vista, your hardware and software don't matter at all because Funcom needs to test their game with as many system configurations as possible.

oh I want to join beta test too. How do we sign up? can you give us a link? and is it limited? or everyone can test it?
It was in this months newsletter.
I hope you are right about XP being able to run it. I'd really like to test this game out.

It will absolutely work on Windows XP, they need to test both Vista and XP with it. If they didn't test an XP edition, they would be eliminating a massive massive chunk of customers.
I think "massive massive" is an understatement. They would eliminate most of their userbase if they didn't let XP-users test the game. Though, I would think that running Vista with a DX10 capable computer increases your chances of becomming a beta-tester, since DX10 is one of their great features they need to test it thoroughly and I think that most applicants are either running PCs incapable of DX10 or not running Vista (or both).

- What archetype will you play?
Only thing I don't like is that you cannot upgrade your beta application if you upgrade hardware. I upgraded video cards recently and had to make a second account and fill out a new application.
I miss DAoC
yes.. i am in the same boat. dxiag denied the first time around. Upgraded my card and now I have to check a 2nd email account just to see if I get accepted
That's the first I've heard of anyone being denied, would you mind posting the 'denial mail' you received if you still have it please?
Also here's something interesting posted by a guildie;
Go here:

Select 'Age of Conan', and click on "Can you run it?"
It is noted that the system requirements are not final, but it's the best we have at the moment.
Keep in mind these system requirements are NOT final, so things might change between now and release.
it said my diaxg wasnt good enough. I'm looking through my bulk mail (where it ended up) but theres a lot. Ya.. makes me sound like 100% bs im sure
. but it did say my computer wasnt good enough the 1st time. still looking..
I wasn't doubting you for a minute, I was just interested in what or how they said it that's all.
and what kinda card did you have? just curious.
