Where? How Big? Does the file download support resume?
|
Download for the client for free players is about 800 mb. The files are distributed via bit torrent.
Look out for in-game ads on billboards though. The first day I tried it, I saw billboards showing "PC Gamer: Galaxy's Greatest Magazine!".
If anyone wants to play AO, I'm "deccan" on Rimor server. Send me a tell, and I'll give you some starting capital and equipment.

Well, as a great man once said, "Resistance is futile!" Never played a true MMORPG, so I figure if I don't have to pay a thing, I may as well give it a go to see if I even like it. deccan, expect a request for funding soon.

Yeah, and if we get enough, we can start our own SEIV org in AO! |

Re: OT: Morrowind?
I've been thinking about giving AO a try as well. We'll see how it goes.

No problem, but since AO doesn't have an in-game mailing system like WOW, we'd have to meet up sometime. Also, my main is neutral so I can go anywhere, but if you choose a sided faction, there will be places you can't go too.
You'll start in Newbie Isle anyway, and once you leave you can't go back. |

Currently milling around Newbie Isle blowing up cargo droids... Playing a neutral adventurer to start out with (loosely based on a character from my latest story, which I haven't had time to work on, but hasn't been forgotten), but don't really have a lot of free time lately, so I probably won't get off Noob Isle for another week. If we do manage to swing a rendez-vous, just try not to look shocked.

I killed the tax-man killer without to much trouble. And mudcrabs are easy. Don't know why you guys are having such trouble.

Cool, for myself, I've moved from the "must play AO every day" to "let's log in for an hour occasionally to muck around a bit" phase. This is mainly because I have no real in game friends now.
Earlier, I had a bunch of people I regularly grouped with, but most free newbies (froobs in AO parlance) seem to lose interest around level 50 or so. Currently, I'm at level 75. There are a lot of sub 50s, and a lot of established post 150 players, but not too many mid-level players it seems.
Maybe next week when I have more time I'll go scouting for a good org to join, which should open up more of the game to me. |
