  • Well I caved in and bought in for $9.99 last night. Just finished the tutorial, and had many flashbacks to my years of playing. Will take me a while to get used to things again, controls, combat, interactivity, etc. but shouldn't take too long. It …
    in State of AC Comment by lobes August 2014
  • Why would they even mention Asheron's Call 2? Certainly they haven't been billing people for that in quite some time?
  • Here is a link to the forum post regarding the current/future state of AC: https://www.asheronscall.com/en/forums/showthread.php?62779-News-about-the-next-update
  • Originally posted by SnarlingWolf So I've seen a lot of responses to question 1 but not question 2.   Question 2 is: Despite any reason you have for not paying to play the game, what stops you from trying the free 2 week trial? You have nothin…
  • I simply enjoy World of Warcraft more. It was a better fit for me. That is not a knock on AC, I enjoyed it greatly.  
  • Originally posted by Zooce Visa debit gift card? I don't think its that they aren't able to use their credit card, I think the problem is that nowadays most games do not require a credit card to do a Trial, and AC still does. Heck, you can play m…
  • It is interesting to look at the full game list here on this site and see how many games are either free, have a hybrid approach or item mall.  Either Turbine is actually happy with the money revenue in its current model or the game really wouldn't…
  •  Asheron's Call's numbers are HIGHER then they were a year ago ... I'm not taking sides on the issue, I'm simply curious as to how you know this, and where your numbers are coming from. Simply because I would be interested in seeing them for mys…
  • One of my only memories of using Decal was to put my character in one of those mana pools in the meeting houses, and set up a spell casting macro to keep casting spells over and over, in certain order, in order to gain experience and raise spell lev…
  • Originally posted by ZachMeyer I come to you today to wonder what exactly would revive this game.  What do you mean by "revive"? If you think it will ever get to a point where the subscriber base is on par with the top MMO's today, it will…
  • Originally posted by Jamkull you can get a 14 day free trial code and use it to 'upgrade" your old account and gain a 14 day free access to check out the interesting changes. My "old" account was back in the days of logging in via the MSN Gami…
  • I'm sure taste is all subjective and relative, but I don't see how you can call World of Warcraft "pathetic". It might not be your cup of tea, but 12 million people think otherwise. Yes, yes, I know its not as complex and deep, but man its fun to…
  • Are tapers still required to cast spells? I remember having a whole bag full of nothing but the colored tapers, and having to run back and re-stock all the time. Every time a spell fizzled you would wince when you got the message saying it consumed …
  • Originally posted by AllNewMMOSuk So I'll end with everyone should go get the 14 day free trial and see for themselves how fun this game still is. http://trial.ac.turbine.com/   I haven't played since the days when the game was launched via the…
  • My worst experience was at the hands of another player. This was before trading was implemented. In order to trade something, you literally had to drop it on the ground at the same time as another person dropped their item, then you would run and pi…
  • My PC doesn't  meet the minimum requirements. That is why I don't own the game. I'm working on it though.  
  • When I sit down at my computer and log into World of Warcraft, I have fun. THAT is all that matters to me, the rest of this "they stole this, they borrowed that" is irrelevent.  
  • Originally posted by ManJunk Black screen.  That's it. ... The games been out for what?   wow You aren't running Windows Vista by chance are you? AC is not compatible with Vista at this time. There are some workarounds you can try however: …
  • Originally posted by Death1942  i wish SOE would get the picture with SWG surely AA has a larger player base than SWG. What? You can't be serious.
  • As I mentioned in a different thread, I had a brand new, sealed copy of AA on my shelf from a contest here a while back. I brought it into work today to open it up and check it out. Not to install it, just to read the manual and learn a little about…
