my pc will run age of conan on lowest(it did with oblivion). i want to buy the pc version first cause it will be out much earlier then when the 360 version comes out, i'll buy that version but can i use my old pc character on 360?
Comments
Way to early to tell - but I doubt it personally. Ask again half way thru next year when the 360 version might be out then.
I doubt that PC and Xbox players will be able to function on the same servers. Xbox doesn't support a keyboard does it? If not that could be a big part of it.
Does the 360 still use USB connectors? If so, keyboard support would be a snap.
There's no technical reason why playing on the same servers with the same characters would be a problem unless Xbox Live interferes with that somehow. I'm assuming AoC stores all the characters on the server, so it wouldn't be a huge feat to allow it.
yeah its got 1 USB port, i use it to play Guitar hero 2
Playing: EVE Online

I love google

I really don't think they need to have a keyboard, I mean sure it would help, but they could use the Right Stick to do all the combat moves. I am eager to see how AoC will play and run on the xBox 360. Personally I think running an MMO without a mouse or anything is just going to be too difficult, and the xBox really isn't a powerhouse machine. Still I am hoping Funcom will prove me wrong and bring out an MMO where my friends with xBox can play.

I'm waiting on the 360 version but if they say we can transfer characters from pc- or even log in via either after buying the game for both - then I would buy it earlier.

Any USB keyboard will work on Xbox 360. I do think and am pretty sure PC and 360 users will be on the same servers. Anyone remember Final Fantasy XI?
Not sure what I'd feel about sharing a server with console players. I'm on the fence on that one, but I have to say I'm a bit sceptical. As for character transfer? Who knows. I kind of doubt it. Character transfer even from one server of the same type to another brings up a lot of different problems and potential for abuse.
Actually they have added support for a gamepad on the PC version. So i have beliefs that xbox360 and PC will share the same servers and you should in that case be able to log in on ur accout from either version. ffxII had cross platform servers . why couldn't AOC?
If they implement it the same way as SE did with FFXI then yeah, but who the hell knows what they have up their sleeve.
Well then what kind of computer do you have? I have a AMD x2 4600+, 2.5GB RAM, and a x1950pro and still find myself clinging to my 360 for it's GUARENTEED performance and visual quality. But that might just be me.
Im a primarily console gamer and I don't see how the 360 would be at a disadvantage here. This isn't some FPS where every second counts and you gotta have precise aim and fast movement. It's Age of Conan - A MMO. Sure it may be real-time but im willing to bet it won't matter one bit. Oh, and using the right stick for all the combat moves would be horrendous, that's the designated camera control. But's its not like we have a shortage of options here.
And if necessary, give us 360'ers mouse support. Already got the keyboard part down.
So if a console player doesn't have a keyboard how would they interact with other players?
