Just a few days after launch, Funcom reports that Age of Conan has passed the 400.000 subscriber mark. It's still short of their designed server capacity of 600.000 - 700.000 subscribers, but Funcom appears to be pleased.
Norwegian news website E24 quotes Funcom:
"Dette er et tall vi er godt førnøyd med." -- "This is a number we are well satisfied with."
"Utviklingen går i riktig retning", sier Funcoms finansdirektør Olav Sandnes til E24. -- "The development is going in the right direction", says Funcom Chief Financial Officer Olav Sandnes to E24.
Olav Sanders also indicated that Funcom is still aiming for over one million subscribers in the long term to consider the game a great success. It's still some way off from that, but historically popular MMOs take a while to grow their playerbase (and the unpopular games tend to peak after the first month). It remains to be seen how Age of Conan will perform in the long term.
You can find out more from this Norwegian news story (as translated by Google). Funcom's investor relations page also has some interesting reading on the business side of things as Funcom is a publicly traded company at the Oslo stock exchange.
