The Age of Conan Weekend Warrior: new content, huge patch, cheaper mounts

Hyborians, to yet another episode of the Age of Conan Weekend Warrior. This was an exciting week for subscribers to say the least as we see the biggest, meatiest patch yet! If that's not enough, there was also an announcement of new content and an expansion in the pipeline at this year's E3 2008.

This week, we experienced yet another E3 event. Erling Ellingson, the product manager for Funcom's Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures was at the event where he let slip that the developers are currently working on a new expansion of the game

He also mentioned that we will also be getting some new content including a new area at Ymir's Pass for level 55+ characters as well as a new raid dungeon called the House of Crom.

Moving on, this week sees the biggest (and some would argue the meatiest) patch to ever grace the game. We've got mount cost reductions, improvements on the GUI of the game (complete with and emote GUI!) and more. Follow the link below to check out the patch notes for yourself. A lot of gamers have been posting very positive comments about the recent July 17 patch that Funcom rolled out. I was actually pretty impressed with all the fixes and changes the developers were able to sneak in. However, there were still a number of bugs that made it into the game. Well, at least the major issues were hotfixed soon after. Now, as expected there are players who are still complaining about the patch. Now, it made me wonder, why are these people still playing the game? If they hate the game so much, why don't they just leave? Sure, they always say that they're going to be leaving once their subscription comes out, but a month later they're still on.
