Conan dev sorry for 'unintentionally' shrinking breasts

"Your breasts should be back to normal soon," says Funcom after accidental boob job
Ages of Conan developer Funcom has apologised for erm, accidentally reducing the breast size of all of the female characters in its MMO.

The apology comes after many Age of Conan users spotted the breast reduction on their female game characters and complained on the official forums, even providing photo evidence of the boob job.

"Funcom can confirm that some of the female models in the game have had the size of their breasts changed," the company said in a statement. "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." Right on time as well - we were about to return our copies to the shops in a strop.

A strong performance is expected from the head-chopping MMO, which has already lobbed GTA IV off the top spot in several European countries.

It came out in the UK last week. Our boys (i.e. PC Zone) are currently playing through it, and you'll have the proper, fully fleshed review shortly.

Massive Mammaries make MMO's more managable.

Is it just me who still thinks Blood Elf in WoW has better looking boobies?

Are you really surprised people moan? MMO players can be MASSIVELY protective of their in game avatars. It's a very odd state of affairs when those characters want the ultimately armour helmet from the hardest raid dungeon, and then don't actually want it displayed on their avatar as 'people can't see their face'...

My opinion? Don't want to see the helmet, don't bloody wear it.

I can't say I even noticed last night.

Man, click on the photo evidence link and read the posts on that board.

That is one of the saddest message threads i've ever read.

That's the funniest thing I've read all day!

lmoa, the guy siad hes not returning his copy now due to them acknowledging the error, hahaha

Fair enough if the game is boring and it gives you something to look at but in most of these games you only ever see your character from the back or slightly off too the side, so whats the point? lol

I know, im gonna write my own MMO and just have all the chicks looking like plastic barbie pron stars, the game can be crap but as long as the characters look stupid it would sell lmao

Permission to groan and throw rotten veg?

And people that play MMO's wonder why every sane person in the world considers them to be a bunch of sad lonely w****rs.

Only after you have learned to spell properly!

Its not nice to mock the less fortunate. For most of those poor MMO nerds a female game character is probably the closest they will ever come to interacting with a female. Wink

awesome! hahaha

these guys know that there are pictures of real naked women on the internet too right?

Few of those pictures involve murder and levelling up though.
