Unlike the online retailers at the time , a game box + pre order was 65.00 with 2 day shipping. Turbine sent out game disc with 3 day shipping (mine arrived on Tuesday and I ordered it friday )

Age of Conan hasnt said anything about high res textures , or clearing up the code.

One thing that is really different about Funcom is so much double talk.
Exactly. I'm extremely disappointed with the game.
Another thing that's always bothered me, more than anything-- it's the fact that developers can't get it through their heads that character animations, and movement, are EXTREMELY important; more so in MMORPGs than all other games.

You're going to be staring at, and playing as a character for countless hours: hundreds, and possibly even thousands. When they can't get something so important down-- (the only games that come to mind, which have, are FFXI and WoW) it makes the game obsolete in my mind. It's a completely half-assed product, and there is no excuse as to why the casting, combat, and movement animations look so stiff.

It pisses me off to no end.
There's no way I'm ever paying for this game.
