A recent patch to Funcom's Age of Conan game resulted in the involuntary reduction in size of character model assets - specifically, the breast size of female characters. As reported by Kotaku, Funcom has responded to complaints from forum users. "Funcom can confirm that some of the female models in the game have had the size of their breasts changed. This is due to an unintended change in data that was introduced in an earlier patch - data which controls the so-called morph values associated with character models and the size of their respective body parts," the company said in a statement. "We are working on a fix for this and your breasts should be back to normal soon." via GamesIndustry.biz

Robert Garriott --- President of NCsoft® North America
As 2007 comes to a close, I think its well worth discussing what a great year it has been for the company, and using that success as a platform for 2008 and beyond. We’ve had many exciting things happen this year, with much of it providing building blocks for even better years ahead of us. First of course is the release of Richard Garriott’s Tabula Rasa in November, which is a big event in the history of this company and the fruit of much labor by many current and former employees worldwide... Also in November we had even more exciting news. We absolutely love City of Heroes and we really wanted greatly to re-invest in the franchise; the question was how to do it in the best way possible... In August we released Eye of the North, an expansion pack for the extremely popular Guild Wars franchise. Eye of the North was a bit different from our previous Guild Wars releases in that it wasn’t a standalone product; you had to own one of the three Guild Wars titles (Prophecies, Factions, or Nightfall) in order to play, The future is looking great for NCsoft North America. I’ve mentioned quite a few plans we have for 2008, and in addition we

NCsoft's Lineage II will be getting a new free Chaotic Chronicles chapter called The Chaotic Throne: The Kamael. Announced at the MMORPG's official website, this update will introduce a new race, lands, and three new services.
The new race, called The Kamael, are well known for their battle prowess and their affinity for dark magic. These one-winged warriors can choose to go the path of a Berserker (males only), Abalester (females only), or a Soul Breaker (available to both genders).
Chaotic Throne: The Kamael also introduces three new lands called Isle of Souls, Hellbound, and Isle of Prayer. Isle of Souls is the homeland of The Kamael which players can visit by talking to the Gate Keeper NPCs. Hellbound and Isle of Prayer are new areas for higher-leveled players; they will provide good rewards for those who journey there and survive.
This expansion implements three new services, namely Character Server Transfers, Name Changes, and Gender Changes. Players have been asking for these features ever since Lineage II came out so it's nice to see that they're finally adding it. More updates on this MMORPG as we get them.

By Crom! Funcom's Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures website Friday update has come out and it discusses some very important topics that players have been concerned about: localized servers and languages as well as the possibility of an open beta test.
The developers gave word that the servers are being split into two primary territories, North America and Europe. The server you will be playing on depends on what retail copy you pick up. This limits both U.S. gamers and European gamers to their local servers unless they decide to import a copy of the game. The developers iterated that this was not done to create artificial boundaries but to give players "the best possible time in Hyboria."
In the same light, the developers of the Age of Conan plan on adding more languages to the game to allow players to experience the game in their own native tongue. So far the game is confirmed to be launched in English, German, and French but the team are currently looking into adding Spanish to the list.
Unlike servers, players will be given a chance to change the language used by the game. However, the default language on the install disc will be according to what server that copy of the game is at

FunCom released a bunch of new Age of Conan screens to go along with this beta update that discusses what they have planned for server centers, plus what's up with the open beta. At the same time we are now deploying a large amount of additional machines to our main server structures. This means that we are getting ready for larger-scale Beta deployment! We now have the hardware, the set-up (and an awesome game;) ready for larger scale testing! As a result of this we are also getting ready to start inviting thousands and thousands (and thousands) into our Beta programs. As we progress with this new stage of the Beta we expect to get lots of constructive feedback on the general gameplay, and we hope that the testers will also love this iteration of the new combat system. This testing will in turn lead to adding tens and tens of thousands of testers as we move over to the new year. This is surely great news, and for you in the community it means that we are escalating our invitation process. For those of you we have defined as “veterans” (which have not gotten a Beta invite yet), we are looking to send an invitation within the next few weeks. As we have stated before it is a goal for
