Age of Conan - Player Registration [Guilds/servers]

ZzuluZzulu Registered User regular
edited June 2008 in MMO Extravaganza
I made this thread in order to be able to compose a list of the people who are going to play Age of Conan come launch. It'll be easier to organize guilds and server selection this way.


What I need from you is the following;
  • your name and confirmation of the fact that you'll play AoC come release.

  • Please state if you're going to play on the European or American server as well, so we can keep that info in check.

  • The third thing I need from you is if you prefer a PvP or a PvE or a RP-PvP server.

Remember, even if you have a guild outside of PA it's probably a good idea to roll on the same server as your fellow penny arcadians, as allies will be needed in the world of Hyboria. So this list will be a big benefit to all of us as we try to decide on some common ground.


The List, so far:

Europeans

PvP Server of choice will be Fury
Zzulu - European PvP
Gazamc - European PvP
Lly - European PvP
Fantasyrogue - European PvP
Prime - European PVP
Kiith - European PvP

PVP-RP server of choice will be Aquilonia
Demiurge - European RP-PvP
reVerse - European RP-PvP
Scroffus - European RP-PvP

Americans:

Stormrage will be the PA PvP server of choice
Zek - American PvP
chrpnk - American PvP
Shabutie - American PvP
Pej - American PvP
Camel - American - PvP'
Xorro - US PvP

Angry - American - PvP

Kisna - American PVP
Vi Monks, American, PvP.

Kai_San - US PVP

Goodchild - American RP-PvP
ze swift class - RP-PVP
Firekiun - American RP-PVP
Doresain - American RP-PVP.
MrMonroe - American PvP-RP
Lorek, American, PvP-RP server

ManetherenWolf - American PvP or PR PVP

    American - I might be down with PvP if the majority want to do that, and also if there is a ruleset in place that doesn't suck. I'm really keen on FFA though.

    Demiurge, European RP-PvP. I'm doing a project to organize my wow server's community onto the same server/guild. We have a temporary forum up here. (I shamelessly stole the OP from the AoC thread here on PA)

    Edit, there for early access.

    Do we know how far the RP rules go? Is it just about staying in character or are there good-behavior rules too? I personally don't want to roleplay but wouldn't mind staying in character in public chat if it means a more mature playerbase.

    Right now they haven't even confirmed the existance of a possible Rp/pvp server. It'll probably be there though. In fact, none of the PvP server rulesets have been revealed yet.

    Y'know I already preordered...I have the prerelease weekend free...I have an extra 5$...but yet I don't know why I'm not playing 3 days early.

    Anyway, Shabutie will for shore be playing on an American PVP Server. I run with some WoW guildies of mine called NetFeters. So I'll probably be running on whatever server they roll on. Hopefully it's the same as P-As. :P

    RP-PVP

    I buy this game just for some good time group pvp and seige. Hopefully playing in RP server will set me in a more mature/interesting community.

    May I suggest that in the OP add separate PVP and RP-PVP, that could be people that don't want to be in a RP server.

    what's with the roleplaying mang

    I don't roleplay :(

    I somehow doubt you'll get ganked in a more polite way just because you're on a RP server. In fact, you might just cross paths with more zealous types trying to enforce their character on you by stabbing you in the back as you finish a quest together.

    I'm influenced by my experiences in WoW. It's just more fun when people around you are talking in-character. On non-RP realms, it's always "hi m8 wut abot dat eminem toly bitchign lol".

    To re-iterate and expand upon my post in the other AoC thread, I'm picking this up at launch and depending on how badly Funcom fucks up the early access client download, I'm in for that as well.

    I'm leaning PvE server, since the idea of a FFA PvP with no real death penalty and apparently no thought-out PvP policy makes me cringe, although I'd consider testing out the RP-PvP server.

    A lot of people choose RP servers imagining that only the mature players would be willing to play there, but I've never found that to be the case. There are plenty of mature players who don't want to roleplay, and plenty of immature ones that do. And no shortage of people who just roll there to play with their friends. The RP playerbase is the same as anywhere else, the only difference is that there are more rules, which usually only apply to character names and public chat. Personally I think roleplaying rules are a hindrance and would rather be able to talk freely without worrying about the all-seeing eye. Public chat is never exactly a source of intelligent discussion.

    If enough people want to go PvE, I'd probably rather do that.

    Also for those that paid for early access, keep an eye on your email as funcom started sending out download locations to people.

    I'd like a pvp server. I don't really mind if it's rp or not, but I think my guild wants a regular pvp server. The rules on rp servers can apparently be a hassle.

    I do understand the horrid ganking that will occur, and some peoples reluctance to expose themselves to it, but that's why I made this thread. If we stick together we will reduce the nastyness by a large margin. Gankers go for soft, lonely targets who can't fight back or are at a disadvantage. Rarely have I ever been attacked by a ganker when I had the upper hand in any way. So yeah, if we all get on one server and just support eachother every now and then I think we'll be fine. I have never rolled on a PVE server before and I've never regretted it.

    I also always prefer pvp servers because you will get that one awesome moment out in the random wild when you have a fantastic battle in one way or another <3. PvP servers usually have a better meta game as well.

    American - PVP or RP PVP

    I don't really know which I'd prefer. I know the ganking is going to be a lot more tolerable on an RP server but it seems like they are going to be taking the RP stuff pretty seriously so I don't know.

    American PvE. I hate forced world pvp. Anonymity + repressed nerds + ability to do harm to others does not a compelling experience make.

    I will rock the borderlands (or whatever the pvp zones are called) though.

    Buying at Launch, Probably will do the early launch, depending on the download servers for it (Do it in something that can be resumed for gods sake.)

    US servers. No preference as to what type of server. Ill pretty much play wherever there is a good group of people playing.

    I guess my preferance for RPPvP servers is anecdotal. Having played most of my time on a WoW RPPvP server, I've never once been corpse camped. Ganked plenty of times, but never corpse camped. Also I think it gives people incentives to run lower level dungeons (for the almighty RP gear). You still have the asshats but they seem to be in a lower concentration (I guess the number of drama queens and attention whores is what balances it out).

    I guess some RP events are cool too (I used to RP a magical insurance salesmen, was fun).

    I'm in the list for EU PVP but honestly i really don't care which server ruleset i play on. If the ruleset is literally FFA i may reconsider if the place is filled with tosspots, but pvp/rppvp is my initial choice.

    I may actually preorder it after all this, solely for the drinking cape.

    US PVP most likely.

    I'm kind of on the fence about the PVP servers at the moment after sampling the game's tons of loading screens, narrowly laid out zones, everyone has stealth, FFA PVP madness. My play schedule won't be regular enough to run with a group all the time and I'd hate to be stuck leveling in my 20s for months on end because I'm constantly being ganked. :|

    We don't know what Funcom has in store yet for the PvP system. Hopefully they'll have an anti ganking thing going at launch. As in, you're either invulnerable/invisible as you spawn from dying or gankers get bad rep for repeated ganking or whatever.

    I doubt they'll release it as it is now, because as it is now, two friends can go into the woods and murder eachother all day for massive PvP xp. There are just no penalties or rules implemented yet at all. I doubt this will be in for launch.
