For now only the owners of the Collector’s Edition of Age of Conan have been issued their buddy keys to let friends play unsubscribed for seven days.
Standard copies don’t have their buddy keys activated just yet but they ”will soon open up” say Funcom. CE owners have five buddy keys to give away.
”We have now opened the first part of the Buddy key program for Age of Conan! Everybody who has purchased a Collector’s Edition can now invite up to five friends, who can try the game for seven days without purchasing a retail box,” reads the official community site.
”We recommend that you lend your install DVDs to your buddy to get him or her ready to play as fast as possible.” Though this isn’t the only option for them to get a copy of the game, just in case you don’t trust your ‘buddy’ that much I guess. ”Alternatively your buddy will be offered a $2,99/€2,99 client download with 3 additional days of playtime to cover the download time.”
”While this offer is only for Collector’s Edition accounts for now, we will soon open up for the Buddy key found in the standard retail box as well,” Funcom concludes.
