Let's face it, MMORPGs are more fun when playing with friends. The same is true with Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures. Now the question is, how do you get your friends into the game? Well, this problem has been made a hell of a lot easier since the buddy keys in the Collector's Edition of the game have been activated.

Inviting a friend to play is pretty simple. Just log-in to your account page, select Buddy Program from the menu and follow the onscreen instructions. As for the game client, you can either lend your friend your install DVDs or they can download it for US$ 2.99/ € 2.99. Don't worry about the time spent downloading it because Funcom will be giving you three additional days of gametime to cover the download time.

As we mentioned before, only the buddy keys in the Collector's Edition have been activated. Those who purchased the standard retail edition will still have to wait a bit before theirs is activated.
