We've caught wind of a rumor regarding certain retail chains that give out unique <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/age-of-conan"><em>Age of Conan</em></a> pre-order keys. It seems that if you've pre-ordered at any chain that does give you a unique key, then a three-day early start is in your <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/03/01/clan-of-conan-issue-14-highlights/">Hyborian</a> future. The rumor started in this <a href="http://forums.ageofconan.com/showthread.php?t=58042">thread</a> on the official forums, which was then supported by a <a href="http://forums.ageofconan.com/showpost.php?p=1436650&amp;postcount=16">secondary</a> post with a copy-paste of an email that seemingly confirms the rumor. What is most <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/01/10/hands-on-with-age-of-conans-dark-templar-class/">interesting</a> is that an official post has since been made concerning said rumor, which doesn't actually deny the three-day head start.<br /><br />So it certainly seems this rumor has some legs. This definitely wouldn't be the first time pre-order customers got an early start, as it's quite <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/03/04/rising-from-a-lowly-slave-age-of-conans-starting-point-profil/">common</a> for massively games to do something of this nature. Call us fairly convinced on this one, but of course until there's an official announcement it'll have to go into the rumor bin.<br /><br />[Thanks, autonomous]<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/03/04/rumor-some-age-of-conan-pre-orders-to-get-early-access/">RUMOR: Some Age of Conan pre-orders to get early access</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Tue, 04 Mar 2008 13:00:00 EST.
