While this sounds like a move in the right direction, we'll have to wait and see if there is indeed a visible difference in the quality of the patch and the patch notes.

Once the tool is downloaded simply run the executable. Select the Source directory (This is where you have the Live client installed) and then select the Destination directory (this is where the Testlive Client will be installed).

Age of Conan is out on Friday, and Eurogamer MMO is marking the event with a dedicated Age of Conan week.

It now seems safe to suggest that Age of Conan is the most successful MMO launch since World of Warcraft.

Age of Conan is due for PC release on 30th October, though an Xbox 360 date has yet to be confirmed. Head over to our game page for more information.

We do also have pre-paid game cards. We can't keep underage children from playing in the game - it's just impossible. We just have to trust in parents. It's their responsibility.

That's the immediate and the most short-term focus that we have. In addition to that, giving PVP real purpose is the second thing that we are really focusing on. There are certain measures that we want to take to make PVP more focused, more fun and more rewarding to play.

One of the most interesting aspects of the game is that it seems willing to dispense with MMOG conventions; the early segment of the game is actually a single-player RPG (although it's played while connected to the game servers), and the MMOG experience comes after that, which should significantly reduce the "noob" factor in the game.

Head over to our of Age of Conan preliminary review to find out what we thought; we'll be bringing you a full and detailed opinion of the game shortly before you have to decide to subscribe or not after your free 30-day trial.

About the game install itself; it took about 45 - 55 minutes to install the whole thing and there was around 800mb of updates to download after that．
