On saturday 28th of June 2008 On the EU PvP Server Soulstorm we managed to succcesfully put together a 24 man raidgroup consisting of totally random people． Our goal was to defeat Vistrix the dragon．

Another interesting combat feature is that you can double tap a movement key for a brief special effect, such as a chance to stun with the forward key, or a chance to dodge with the backward key. Sound like a lot of button-mashing?

Funcom has partnered with Gamespot to open up the Age of Conan beta for a PvP weekend from Friday April 18th to Sunday April 20th. They'll be accepting 15,000 players for the event, and you can sign-up for it with your GameSpot registration.

Combat in Age of Conan strays considerably from the standard RPG fare and it takes some adjustment. If you're in the beta and you're wondering how combinations work or what those weird sheild indicators are for, this combat tutorial will set you straight.

"It is with great pleasure and satisfaction that we are announcing this partnership, one that proves to be yet another milestone for our company - releasing the first subscription MMORPG fully localized into Polish," said Michal Kicinski, joint CEO of CD Projekt. "We are committed to providing a new level of game experience through the use of local game masters, community managers and customer support. For years we have waited for the right MMO game to come along and now it is here, in our hands."

I am all for simple controls on games, having to remember tons of button commands to command your party or fight makes for steep learning curves on some titles. Graphically the game looks fantastic and the game play was intense. This is one console title I will be looking forward to getting my hands on for some serious play time.

"Sales data shows that Age of Conan is the biggest MMO launch since World of Warcraft," said Funcom Vice President of Sales and Marketing Morten Larssen. "The numbers are very promising, and we are very proud to be one of the fastest selling PC games ever in a launch month and the biggest simultaneous Europe/US MMO launch in history."

So far Funcom says 700,000 people have signed up for game accounts making it the number 2 subscription based MMO in the world. Still it is a very distant second to WoW. Funcom says it believes Age of Conan to be the most pre-ordered game in history.

The close partnership with game developer Funcomand publisher Eidos has allowed Ideazon to elevate the level of immersive play possible for gamers.

However, the problem with the combo attacks is a different story altogether. The damage of combo attacks are based on multiple factors as Sharum explained.
