    So who else is buying this game when it comes out?
    I already pre-ordered my copy and am looking forward to my shiny war-mammoth or rhino :).
    Also it'll be nice to be in an MMO's where everyone doesnt already know everyhting,should keep the story interesting.
    The fighting system looks really cool in my opinion and is definately a welcome change from mashing buttons.I just hope the shield's and dodging make enough of a difference to the game,who knows someday we may even get fps MMO's.
    Mount fighting is such a sweet idea and im PO'ed that other's like wow hadn't done this before..
    I dunno how sieges will work exactly but they could make for some pretty epic fun as whole guild,mercenaries and catapults are trying to take a base.
    I think ill be going for a herald of Xotli.
    "I'm a demon man?...AWESOME!"
    How about you?

    Conan what is good in life!?
    For any who think i'm just crazy heres the site for this revolutionary game

    I was hyped for this game but some of the beta testers say it's just wow with graphics =/

    It's going to need more revolutionary things for me to buy it

    Meh i think the combat system looks good on paper anyway,and ive heard some testers saying its good,albeit a little slow which they cna fix.
    I suppose you just get mixed reviews,should be able to post some solid stuff once my mate gets his beta working.Lol he signs up 2 months ago,gets invited,spend a 24 hour download to get it,a further 3 hours to unpack it...then finds out his drivers arent up to date....and has since -censored- his comp over totally trying to fix it...i should be able to fix it up for him tomorow though.

    Also it does have some nice small things that most other MMO's dont have like cutscenes for quest givers instead of walls upon walls of text and a very nice looking character customization thing.
    Plus i like the idea of riding a massive elephant into battle,fighting form it and smashing buildings ;)...but that might just be me who knows

    Actually the game is really cool it has good graphics and everything.... i have played the closed beta and its really good..theres like 9 different classes, oyu can give the characters markings on there body when you make them, you can give them facial hair and stuff its pretty cool cant wait till the actual game comes out.... oh yea and the best place to get the pre-order thing is best buy because its 5 bucks and thats pretty cheap... Best buy is the war rhino and gamestops pre order codes give you the mammoth

    Cool,does the combat thingy work well then?All i know is vague bits about it and that you have to use different direction attacks to do the combo's/feats.How exactly doesn spell-weaving work?

    Oh and if you have a loyalty card,game is THE best place to pre-order :) its free.
    Altho you get the mammoth and i'd prefer the rhino really...but i can make a 2 tonne elephant work methinks :D

    And monkey it doesnt have arnold in it ,thats the movie..which from what ive seen was really really bad.

    The enemy's have kinda like shields and it shows which side is more vulnerable the left, right or top and when you do a combo you hit the skill and then you have to hit the direction it tells you to.... the only part that kinda sucks is it is an open PvP (Player vs Player) so people can just come up to you and try and kill you anytime they want

    surely thatll only be in pvp servers?I can imagine that being fun within reason tho.
    At least its not the exact same fall over and die animation over and over.I mean decapitations,mutilations etc should help there.
    Btw what happens when you die,i havent been able to find out

    Personally I am really looking forward to this game. It is slated to come out for the 360 this fall as an MMO. I hope that it does well and that it is cross-platform.

    Also, if you are looking for and FPS MMO, try out planetside. Although it is a sony online product.

    Yeah unfortunately they arent giving too much info on release date or cross system info.
    It'll be cool but the controls'll probly be quite tricky.I'm not sure how they'll lay it out for the good ol'xbox,hopefully it'll be cross console and we can all have unofficial "factions"

    KILL THE CONSOLE'ERS!!!! lol :)
