Age of Conan Developer Panel Video

[B. de la Durantaye]

Possibly the most informative part of the Community Event in Oslo, Ten Ton Hammer returns with the video of the developer panel. The hosts of the Q & A session fielded questions from the visitors and covered a wide range of topics from stealth to beta to spellweaving and female characters.

• Ten Ton Hammer Premium members can catch the video here.

Tell us what you think! Is Funcom keeping up with the demands of the MMOG community? Have the recent delays been warranted in light of the systems and dynamics the team discusses here?

Isnt this the same thing they released on the Friday update?? Why is it premium members only when anyone can download from Funcom?

[B. de la Durantaye]

You pretty much answered your own question. Anyone can download another version of this from the official Age of Conan site (among other sites around the internet). So we've decided to give our premium members the Ten Ton Hammer cut of the video, because after all, ain't it nice to just have one site to look up all your favorite vids and articles?

indeed indeed it is, not complaining about it just wondering... thats why I signed up for premium membership, because of all the great exclusive content you are getting on AoC.

I was just wondering if it really was the same interview or if you had your own footage, just to make sure I wasnt missing anything.

I think there are a few seconds in there that you're not likely to see on the other releases. Will leave that for a surprise though. (no, it's not huge game-changing news or anything - just fun stuff).

Bewbs? *snicker*

Kidding of course. I need to stop buying 360 games so I can get a premium membership, heh.

The stealth system certainly sounds really great, I kept thinking of Splinter Cell as they described it. If they can pull it off it's going to blow other MMO's stealth systems out of the water.

Me too. I can't remember if they said Rogues will be the best of the Assassin will be, but if it's Rgoues, my Ranger counts, lol! I especially liked the part about the NPCs having relative sense detectors (i.e., you have a greater chance of being detected if you are in their vision cone), the fact that you make more noise relative to armor worn and the making use of shadows part.

They joke about going naked to get an extra bonus to stealth, but Conan himself was known to strip down to get into places
