Earlier today we sat with Age of Conan product manager Erling Ellingsen. Due to the development cycle Conan is in right now, Ellingsen didn\’t really have anything in particular to show us - but he did have some things to tell us. Primarily we were there to find out about some lessons learned from the first months of Conan\’s launch-life. The man himself offered up:
Timeframes for the addition of new high end content like Imir\’s Pass.
The welcome news that the female avatar DPS bug will be squished much sooner that the \’few months\’ we\’d previously heard.
Confirmation that the DX10 version of the game should be viewable at next month\’s Leipzig event.
The news that fan (especially male fan) favorite Keira will be an important quest NPC in the Imir\’s pass zone. The dealy assassin will offer important quests to all heroes of the appropriate level.
And a good deal more. Read on below the cut for our full interview with Mr. Ellingsen.
How do you feel about Age of Conan\’s launch, now that it\’s a few months down the line?
Erling Ellingsen: It was a fantastic launch. Technically it was perfect, servers stayed up whole time, billing, logging was great. There were of course a few bugs when we launched, but I think that\’s true with all MMOs. The game was perfectly playable, polished. It was just the launch that we wanted. Especially considering Anarchy Online, we were biting our fingernails.
Do you have any recollections from launch day, any memories that stand out?
We had a huge screen set up in the office that tracked the number of people logging in across the servers. We sat there, all dressed up and watching the numbers rise will drinking champagne.
