Hey All,
Still see people are posting on these forums so I cant assume AC is almost dead. This was my first MMO and pretty much the only one that had lasting appeal to me until WOW came along, havent played that for over a year now, but I find myself wondering if AC is worth going back to. Im not opposed to paying the fee, but I hate to get on just to see that theres only like a 1000 players playing, and that the game itself with patches and what not has grown beyond my comprehension. So was just seein if any of you fine players had some insight for me. Thanks in advance!

Darktide is pretty fun to level a toon from scratch on nowadays, which wasn't really possible when the servers were more crowded. I've gotten two toons up to ±40 by running the old school quests the old fashioned way, and I'm trying to get one of my friends who's never played AC to start a free month. Already getting to the point where I can go anywhere outside of the Direlands, even with the new spawning patterns.

Make a toon and swear to me! Lmao.

Araanidim: Sword/2H spec gimp (Item at 50, Mana C at 80 lmaowtfbbq!)
Sokurah: Regular War Mage, Mana C spec

I like making things so difficult that they are almost impossible in AC. Possibly the most hardcore player to ever play the game! Still at it since '99......

A lot of people are still playing on Harvestgain. There are quests every night. On weekends when there is a Summoning of Tthunn we have a portal storm because there are so many people there.

Same game, more content, more bells and whistles, more fun.

If you have an inactive account with old characters you may have access to some of the best loot in the game (foolproof bags of salvage - one per character). See http://ac.wikkii.net/wiki/Royal_Guard_(2008_Compensation).

Be sure and check out the wiki too - http://ac.wikkii.net/

They've also upgraded the graphics. Its not AC:2 quality, but it is a decent improvement.
