Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures: servers, languages, open beta |
Ó
By Crom! Funcom's Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures website Friday update has come out and it discusses some very important topics that players have been concerned about: localized servers and languages as well as the possibility of an open beta test.
The developers gave word that the servers are being split into two primary territories, North America and Europe. The server you will be playing on depends on what retail copy you pick up. This limits both U.S. gamers and European gamers to their local servers unless they decide to import a copy of the game. The developers iterated that this was not done to create artificial boundaries but to give players "the best possible time in Hyboria."
In the same light, the developers of the Age of Conan plan on adding more languages to the game to allow players to experience the game in their own native tongue. So far the game is confirmed to be launched in English, German, and French but the team are currently looking into adding Spanish to the list.
Unlike servers, players will be given a chance to change the language used by the game. However, the default language on the install disc will be according to what server that copy of the game is attuned to. They are still currently deciding if they should include all the languages on the installer or to offer it as a download for players who want to change the language.
If you've been waiting for a chance to try out the game, you'll probably have to wait until it hits retail because the developers are not looking into any form of open Beta for Age of Conan. They believe that "the needs of the game and our development team will, and must have, first priority" so they have put most of their effort in improving the game and working with the current number of testers they have on board.
So far, it looks like the developers are doing a great job with their MMORPG. We can probably expect more updates from Funcom as we move closer to the expected launch date of March next year.
