Age of Conan allows for a limited time single player experience, which you can use to get accustomed to the game, user interface and controls. Of course it's not all about learning, plenty of adventure also awaits you during this time. In the single player portion of Age of Conan you may still communicate with others on the same server. Although you may spend as long as you like exploring the beach and jungle, you should be able to reach the city of Tortage within an hour, at which time you will begin to see other players. Once you hit Tortage you are able to switch between the single player story (night) and multiplayer stories (day) freely. |

As for the content, things seem to start to tail off in terms of solid quest lines and more engaging content once you hit 40. In the Field of the Dead, the game's zone for those between 40 and 50, things start off at a decent clip with a few quests near the zone's beginning, but then seem to sputter to a slow crawl, offering only a few tasks and meager rewards. Compared to the polished level 1 through 20 experience in Tortage and large number of quest chains available in the 20 to 40 zones, Field of the Dead doesn't really stack up. Leveling is still entirely possible through grinding as downed mobs around your level give out pretty good experience bonuses, but opportunities to gain quest experience rewards that can so quickly propel you along the leveling curve seem to dry up. |

"We want them [Xbox 360 gamers] to be able to play with their PC friends if they like to... But obviously the control mechanism, the communication, all this is stuff we are solving on a daily basis. The patching, the install, the footprint, the payment, the servers, the customer service... it's a challenge. But we will get there eventually," Tharaldsen said. Let's say: You are really lucky today! |

While this could be useful to a beginner player, particularly if they're inexperienced to MMOGs all together, I didn't find the built-in hotkeys very useful. In fact, it would take me longer to find the specialized key on the z-board than it would to just hit "N" for my feats, or "R" to reply to a friend's message. With a bit of use though, eventually I did get used to the hotkey's locations, and could use them relatively quickly. |

After a few more games we started learning the cues. Auras surround character's protected areas. So if we saw an opening above the character's head a downward slash would be used. If they were unarmoured on the left, we'd attack accordingly. You have to be swift, fast on your feet and a quick thinker. The combat gets quite deep and having the right attacks hot keyed to the numerical keys was essential. You'd find yourself trying to use a deadly equation of 1's, 2's and 8's. The games were fierce and fast, bloody and utterly engaging. We would have liked more modes of PvP combat but what we got was great - even though our poor barbarian was frequently battered about. |
