Registration now opened and new Early Access date for the EU servers
Posted: - 05.05.2008

Registration for customers with pre-order keys has now opened.

Registration for customers with pre-order keys has now opened on http://register.ageofconan.com Registering with a valid pre-order key (such as the Rhino or Mammoth key) is the unique way to be eligible to purchase Early Access for 5€/5$. This fee includes 10 days of game-time as well as the digital download of the client. Hurry though, because the Early Access is only available while supply lasts!

Note that pre-order items such as the Rhino and Mammoth is not available on Early Access accounts. Once an Early Access account is upgraded with the retail key, the virtual item can be claimed. The originally planned level capping of the Early Access has been removed.

The launch date for early access in Europe has been moved forward! Both the US and EU servers open on the 17th of May (5pm GMT). This date used to be the 20th for the EU servers, thus European players are now getting 6 days of early access until the regular launch on May 23rd!

Same here on the key from Play, no idea when they plan to send. it. Also my credit card is taunting me for an upgrade. Only recently cleared a shitload of cc debt so don't really want to go down that route but it does know how to whisper sweet nothings in my ear! Very Happy

Possible good news re using beta clients for early access for those of us that have preordered..

Quote:

No guarantees, but with any other different types of client (closed beta vs open beta vs tech test vs whatever) all you generally need to do is replace LocalConfig.xml and you can patch up. The same should hold for the release client.

This is a dev quote saying it may be possible. before the rumours were that they would be completely incompatible. While its only possible, not definate, its good news with the speed of downloading from Funcom being so painful.

(Yes i am still downloading.. for the last 10% of it the speed dropped even further..)
