More Age of Conan news, anyone? Eidos has announced that a whopping one million players have signed up for the MMORPG’s beta test.
According to the developer, Funcom, this is the highest number for any MMO beta test in the Western world. At least that we know of anyway. But how many of those million players will become paying customers, I wonder?
Age of Conan is one of the most anticipated MMORPG releases in modern time, and is currently scheduled for a May 23rd launch.

Norwegian developer Funcom has launched a new website featuring a feat calculator for its MMORPG Age of Conan. It is a valuable tool players can use “to explore the various options available for thei character’s builds, without having to worry about in-game costs to retrain their feats.”
The site states that you will be able to use it for viewing all the feats of every single class available, and even interact with them in the exact same way you would in-game, but with a few extrea features.
Not satisfied? Well then you can also easily link your feat builds to friends, so that they can check out what you have in mind, similar to World of Warcraft.

The Norwegian developer Funcom today announced the official pricing for both the North American and European versions of Age of Conan.
Firstly, the actual hard copy of the game will cost you $59,99 (€49,99), I’m assuming you want this. Secondly, you will obviously have to pay a monthly fee in order to access the game online, which happens to be the nice sum of $14,99 (€12,99).
This pricing range isn’t very different from other popular MMORPGs, so don’t complain!
