Man. Some of the bugs in Age of Conan are just downright stupid funny. In addition to a bug that reduced the breast size of female AoC avatars, there is also a bug (or code by design) that makes female avatars do less damage / DPS than male ones.
The following excerpt is from a post on Massively that details the status of a fix for this bug.
A few weeks back our own Adrian Bott took a close look at a very … unique … bug in Age of Conan. It seems that differing animation cycles in the game have resulted in an unforseen side effect: female avatars do less damage then male ones. At the time, the Funcom developers said they’d let us know as soon as they could about a fix. Today they let us know, but the news is mixed. The good news is that ’straight damage’ (what they call white damage) has been fixed. Simple autoattack routines use few animations and they’ve all been fixed and pushed to the live servers.
Too funny. What retarded shit will Age of Conan do next? Stay tuned to find out!
Age of Conan is so buggy and broken that it’s almost not even worth talking about the actual playability of the game or the balance between the classes.
Instead, let’s talk about tits. If there’s one thing that Funcom got right when designing the game, it was giving perverted male players the ability to strip their female character to a level of bare-breastedness that surpasses other MMORPGs.
Thanks for adding the funbags, Funcom. We owe you one.
Edit: Hahaha. Just found this post from a week or so ago.
Greetings,
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. We are working on a fix for this and your breasts should be back to normal soon.
The plastic surgeons of Hyboria apologize for the inconvenience.
Thank you,
