Sadly, it appears that the Early Access to Funcom Age of Conan has been sold out. This comes from the official forums for the game. If you didn't get and use your Early Access code that was handed out with Age of Conan pre-orders you are officially out of luck. No Conan for you!
But, if you speak German or French you may still have a chance. Only the English language version is sold out at this point but they could close at any moment.
As you can ascertain, many rabid fans of Age of Conan are perturbed at this dismal news. Everybody thought that doing the pre-order would get you early access but Funcom decided to change the rules on us. That sucks, doesn't it? To put the icing on the cake, they did it without any warning at all. That really sucks!
My guess as to why they ended it was that they're encountering bugs in their program. The beta test version apparently was no picnic in the park. Few programs make it out the door without their share of problems but this smells like times where a movie company doesn't allow critics to review a movie before release. If you remember Funcom's Anarchy game from a few years ago you know that they can release some real clunkers.
Let's hope the Age of Conan pre-launch goes smoothly though.
