If you missed what happened to the scheduled patch today, it was posted by Senior Community Manager Olive "Tarib" Kunz that its been delayed to tomorrow thursday July 10, at 11:00 A.M. GMT/ 7:00 A.M. EDT.

I wrote this post to tell everyone what I'm going to do in the release. What I'm going to do is record myself via microphone, and basically "think aloud" everything going through my head as I play those first ten minutes. Afterwards I'm going to write up everything I said in those ten minutes and publish it. I also want to say, that it will include from when I double click the icon for AOC Gold game.

When the Age of Conan Gold game was launched, after the release of a sold out Collector's Edition and with initial impressive sales, the developers at Funcom declared that they planned to offer the best support ever seen in a MMO.

"That the Age of Conan Gold game remains #1 in retail stores several weeks after release is of incredible importance to us, and proves that the game has a large potential beyond the early adopters," said Morten Larssen, VP of Sales & Marketing in Funcom. "With more than 700.000 accounts created so far we have a fantastic platform to build from, and we will continue our marketing spend to further drive numbers in the months to come.

Funcom is proud to announce that Age of Conan Gold game rises to number 1 on the PC charts, and the Age of Conan Gold game even competes very well on the all-format lists. The normal edition is now sold out in many outlets due to the initial success of the Age of Conan Gold game, and Funcom aims to resupply new boxes as fast as possible. With more than half a million customers, Age of Conan Gold game is already one of the biggest ever western MMO Age of Conan Gold games, and this happens just a week after launch.

It's Funcom and Eidos' upcoming massively multi Age of Conan Gold player online game, ' the Age of Conan Gold game: Hyborian Adventures' that has been awarded the prestigious "Best Online Game of the Show" award, at this year's Games Convention in Leipzig, Germany. According to an official report, the award was won in competition with online games from all genres and across all platforms. The award was presented by a jury consisting of gaming industry press and mainstream press.

Enlarge pictureSince 2006 this game is one of the most expected MMO-s ever and it seems that the dream will come true for the PC users sometime in March 2008. A barbaric, lush and sinful universe might be the difference the Age of Conan Gold game: Hyborian Adventures brings to the gamers' community. But let's take a closer look at the most important features this already multi-awarded game has.

Set your graphics. The burden on your system is the main issue that will hold you back from having a great time in this AOC Gold game. Because of this, you should set your graphics as soon as you are given the option. This is first seen on the login screen. Regardless of your system specs, I would set your graphics initially LOW, and then trick the graphics up when your done creating your character and are on the beach.

Your on the beach. You are given a big ol 2-handed oar to paddle your enemies with. Your first Quest NPC ‘Casilda' is straight ahead. Speak with her...honestly she sounds stoned to me...but I'll chock that up to sun exposure. She wants you to kill a ‘scavenger' who imprisoned her...hes right behind you turn back to the beach and go to your left. Kill him and take the KEY. Return to Casilda and free her for your reward...."And whats your reward from this scantily clad stoned female?" ...she will follow you for the next 5 levels without offering any help except to be your personal MMO Cheerleader. Honestly, she ought to give you her +3 PomPoms.

Many of the tradeskill fixes Twicer mentions, such as rendering skinning and weaving useful, don't have an exact time estimate and are simply set to be done 'as soon as we can'. However, we're told the next patch to go to Testlive will feature traders and trainers in the guild cities, along with NPC guards to keep out unwanted intruders. That should go a long way towards making this somewhat wobbly feature feel populated and useful.
