AoC is #1

[KullOfValusia]

Amongst all of Funcom's games I think we are #1 in terms of revenue/activity etc. Yes, even above The Secret World. Why?

Funcom is having a neat charity event called Extra Life. Posted here..

Look at the prizes. While Anarchy Online(clearly less popular then AoC) gets Free T-Shirts mailed to them and TSW gets 'Secret Society Dog Tags' mailed to them... AoC gets ..wait for it.....wait.......... DOUBLE XP POTS! You can infer from this that FC expects a ton of players online during the 25 hour period of the event for AoC regardless (thus the um mediocre prizes for our game.) The big question becomes, if we're #1 is that a good sign for the company? I think it is.

I just wish something entertaining would happen in this game. Everything jsut seems so ill thought out.

And where the bloody hell is the Halloween craptent!? AO (that game under 'heavy (by FC standards) development and undergoing a migration to the DW engine) had it's announcent last week. Despite some announcement a mate informed me of in-game about getting something new, I jsut cant but help doubt that you're not going to just recycle, for the 4th year running, the same old steaming faecal matter.

You'd be better of not releasing anything. OR, at least let the previous years quests stack so we can grind out the pets to whip out at the next raid instead of ByCromming 'for old times sake'.

Halloween content was patched today but won't be switched on until tomorrow and thus wasn't included in the patch notes.

Not quite. The t-shirts are in game t-shirts and not physical t-shirts. This has been clarified in the announcement. We typically stick to in-game rewards for this kind of thing. The Dog-Tags for TSW are a rare exception.
