"No retreat, no surrender" for Age of Conan
DateTime:7/21/2009 11:56:42 AM

Age of Conan's Game Director Craig Morrison recently had an interview at Gamespy to dicuss his game's future. Technical game client issues, a lack of PvE content at certain levels, and an unsatisfying PvP system were all cited as causes of people turning their back on AoC -- followers of the game since launch would agree with all of these things being issues -- but Morrison went through this list and explained how his team has improved the game on each of these fronts.The stage is set for a comeback; now we'll just have to wait and see if the players come to the party. He believes that the biggest issue still remaining from launch is to do with a shortage of good gear, and an itemization overhaul is in the works to address this. 

As for talk of the future, Morrison reminded us that Xibaluku is coming for the PvE junkies, and mentioned the PvP resource system, which should bring a new level of interaction to PvP gameplay.We can also expect some more guild and community functions later in the year.
