During the community event in Oslo last week, the formalities were concluded with a two hour developer Q and A session, which gave press and community representatives a chance to ask those hard-hitting questions about all things 'Age of Conan'.
Here's a small taste of things:

I had the opportunity to give dungeon raiding and CTF PvP a go while over in the Funcom offices last week, and today I present my my hands-on report of my experience:
"If the 'Age of Conan' dungeon designers were going for a dark, hellish, dank, and misty look for the Sanctum of Burning Souls, then they well and truly pulled it off."
Whether your game's dungeon raiding or PvP, 'Age of Conan' will be a game to sate your gameplay desires.
I'll bet that you, the Mitra's Method faithful, are dying to read on and find out what I have learned about 'Age of Conan' and its progress through the beta stage.
"...This was an opportunity to see the groundwork of this game; the developers hard at work making this game what it is set out to be on May 20, 2008."
Today, it's information about the game itself with a plethora of information to come over the next coming days also.
Funcom has introduced a unique "tiered subscription fee" system into their science fiction MMORPG Anarchy Online. The game is about to get a brand new graphics engine to update it for modern machines. The system allows players to play free-to-play, for $5 a month or a regular $14.95. The more people pay, the more content they have access to.

Anarchy Online's Game Director Craig 'Silirrion' Morrison addressed the community in his latest letter giving a very detailed and comprehensive rundown of the upcoming PVP changes for Update 17.8, complete with the full ranking titles:
As I mentioned in the last letter, one of the major changes in 17.8 will revolve around the process of replacing the PVP title system, and introducing separate rankings for solo and teaming PVP as well as a true dueling system with its own ranks as well for those that prefer that style of PVP as well. There are also some Notum Wars changes afoot that we will get to later on in this letter. So with this letter I'm going to explain in more detail exactly what is coming your way in this regard.
It's also a fairly lengthy letter this time out with a lot to cover on this subject so hopefully it illustrates the thoughts and efforts that are going into redefining the system.
