Looks like the combat system is very different. You direct where you want to swing your sword whether it be downward on the head or a side shot to the body.

If you were a zombie and I had to kill you, I'd feel sad.

screw it, I am going to try it out, just to see if my comp can handle it and if its worth spending time playing on off raid days for wow.
Anyone have a link on where to download it? The pre-order said it could be downloaded as soon as today.
$65 is pretty steep to me to "try it out" ($50 for the game + $15 monthly fee).
I'm going to wait for the reviews from AK members before I decide to take the plunge.

I have a hard time deciding if I will like something when someone else says its amazing. When wow first came out I refused to play, all my friends said it was amazing. 3 months later I recieved a free trial from a magazine I bought, so I tried it and was hooked.
First hand experience is better for me. Plus something about "ancient" battles and characters is kinda making me want to try this. hard part will be deciding what class to be.

When I pre-ordered, they gave me a card with a scratch off area that has my 'key number'. At the bottom there was a website that you go to for downloading the client (which I hear is huge). I'll post it when I get home tonight.
Does anyone know if we have to do anything beyond being on the same server to be able to play together, ie choose the same side? From what I see there are 3 races, but it doesn't mention a division like horde or alliance. Let's definitely make sure we all get on the same server so that we can get an AK guild going.
Speaking of which, can any of us start up the AK AoC guild or do we need a full [AK] to do it?

THAT.
Great thanks, I ordered online yesterday, It said they would send more info within 24 hrs, I assume its the online key and the website. 12+ gig will take a bit im thinking, so I wanted to get going asap.

Go ahead and take the reigns on that, Swae. Like WoW, this isn't a "Full" AK operation.
What constitutes a "Full" AK operation? Just curious. :P
I vote for a full guild/game transferlol
You get to build your own town to defend
you get to do dungeons
you get to pvp
What more is there?lol
Sorry bored at work, making me giddy
There's the August Knight's organization, and then there's the WOW-AK guild.
There's some overlap, but the "AKO" or "Full AK" has a different membership/org structure the the WOW-AK guild. Different rules for membership, different ranks, and people who don't even own WoW.
I (and you, probably) use the word "full" for lack of a better term.

I believe in order to download the game early you have to pay the $5.00 early access fee which gives you a few days head start and the ability to download the 13GIG client.
My brother has been downloading it for the last few days....I suspect its because it is due to his crappy DSL but it could be because of the larte number of folks download an extremly large file.
As far as the PVP server goes I am not a 100% sure how it works other than the PVE server has PVP zones set aside other than the PVP games where as I believe the PVP server has more zones available for open world PVP.
BTW I liked old school UO PVP I actually quit when they created the "other" non PVP world for everyone to play.
Probably another reason why I liked Shadow Bane, horrible graphics, horrible controls, great consept. Guild towns open PVP with the ability to loot corpses yay!
