Unique combat styles, large-scale pvp(Like DAoC I guess), mounted pvp, siege weapons, and little things such as barfights
You'd have to watch some of the videos on it, but it looks like it will be a decent mmo (but unfortunately buggy as f*** at release :( )

Unless they've done stuff to deal with this, US Conan players will be fine, anyone else with high-ish latency will be screwed.
(Happy to eat words if things have been adjusted since I last read some beta testing feedback, which was about 2-3 months ago).

The Unique combat may be unique but it's still boring as bat s***. Noone in pvp is going to bother with moving their shields around, so the left/up/right combat system will be useless. Also most of the single player is played offline so don't expect to play the single player portion with your friends (these are just my experiences from being in the beta)

Its being made by Funcom, and what was the last MMO Funcom did? Anarchy Online? That was so unfinished and so buggy when it came out it was hardly playable, so yeah, I'm not suprised to hear AoC is the same.

Actually it's close to 40 or something after patches I found :/
It's an MMO about to be realeased? I don't think there's been an MMORPG without any issues. No matter how much testing they do, I guess there will always be someone to find bugs.

I've been playing Perfect World (www.perfect-world.co.my) and the customer service and the semi non grind aspect has been good. Casual player friendly to.
