BIG EVENT in Conan on MAY 23 [Title edit Drest]

[Argantes]

Ah and top secret is also on which one server will be Anniversary

..and which instance

[Nusquam]

Unlike...some earlier events that will not be spoken about... this one was designed by the devs and implemented by the devs.

Therefore it will:
- support multiple instances.
- run on all servers.
- reward everyone who participates.
- run constantly for the full five days.

When it begins is whenever we flick the (digital) switch which I guess we haven't decided yet.

[Daynan]

Do you have a dev that will log on at this time of day (give or take 2 hours) for the benefit of all the oceanic time zone players?

or

From what you said it sounds more like an automated event that may not require supervision by any of your staff once you flick the switch...

This sounds promising. Thank you, Forum God.

Thank you for your response.
I think it's really cool the Devs are putting this together! It sounds super exciting. But I do hope an official time is announced so some folks can make plans and schedule guild events that revolve around this anniversary. OR basically, I want to be the 1st to see/explore/play this anniversary stuff.

I also hope some of the Devs take the form of some of the social pets and have fun with that. I've never been 1-shotted by a field mouse before but it sounds fun. Or fight a pack of (dev)dogs, or run from a flock of (dev)Tawny Owls, or form a raid to kill an epic-huge slug pet. Did I see pics of people riding spotted cows from back in the Beta days of this game?
Oh the fun the Devs could have with all this!!!
Blow me away!!!!!

Ha ha, great news indeed

Being here to celebrate AOC's 1 year back in 2009 I can really apreciate Dev's involvement with this one. Mitra knows me need it.

For those who were not here in 2009:

I know I am pimping out this link a lot, but it has such a nostalgia factor. Delicious!

... in the meanwhile on test server preparations begun ...

GENERAL
* All old world guards will now behave the same way as the ones in Khitai.
* Subscribers will now receive 1 AA point every time they level.

xD

[Nusquam]

There may have been the odd developer doing the /facepalm emote that day...

Anyway, as with any event ever where a lot of people gather to beat the crap out of something, I can't promise stable framerates or smooth gameplay.

But stuff will show up, I promise

So will my 80s get the AA points since I already lvled?

[Thainster]

I usually dont moan about lack of stuff in here, but will the rewards this time be better than previous ones? Usually its the odd flute or a soggy old cake kinda..or some silly little firecracker. Would be nice with something usefull this time around... what about a in game mp3 player who let u replace the crappy chinese restaurant music in Khitai with some Rooock and Rooolll lol ;-)
