Er bedre enn mange andre lignende spill iallefall, men "hypen" rundt spillet har vært såpass stor at det nesten skulle bare mangle. Tror nok mange hadde sett for seg at de 700k var utsolgt. Om ikke flere.
Jeg er ikke overbevist enda.

Kjører when i trouble double. At funcom går ut med 400 000 registrerte spillere, ser jeg på som forventet, skal godt gjøres å samle over 60-70% av spillerene i åpningshelga, mange mennesker har også andre ting å gjøre. Om 2 uker er det 700 000 som har regget seg. Millionen er selvfølgelig nådd innen høsten. Risken ligger i om spillet holder sin underholdningsverdi,
when in trouble, double

Funcom blir nog en bra investering på ett år sikt om Funcom lägger sina kort väl. Dessutom kompletteras subscribers då xbox och asien försäljningen tar vid.
Min försäljning är mycket triggad av primärt osäkerhet varför dom bara fått 400k subscribers ... förklaringen kan dock vara så enkel att Funcom har server kapacitet för 700k med bara tryckte upp 400k-500k spel ... jag vet dock att i två av dom största spelkedjorna i Sverige är det slutsålt, ett gott tecken ... men 400k subs idag var för mig en besvikelse. Vågar inte ligga kvar.
Men mina huvudskäl till försäljning är dock att jag måste säkra undan pengar då jag skall betala 400.000 SEK i kapitalskatt nu i sommar, samt att jag ville öka i min huvudsatsning ... i en svensk aktie ... Net Insight. Dom säljer dataväxlar worldwide. Har en överläsen teknik för video och allt är patenterat. En aktie jag haft i 10 svettiga år som först nu börjar ge avkastning.

Ingenting overraskende; tror ikke det er noen som har klart å oppnå 400 000 aktive spillere på litt over en uke. Det ser forresten ut som om WoW brukte flere måneder på å oppnå 500 000 spillere.

Lagde en link til det bilde istedenfor , da det var alt for stort.
WOW hadde vel 280k+ til å starte med, noe som har bygd seg sakte (raskt?) og sikkert oppover igjennom de årene spillet har eksistert. Nå må vi huske at WOW har lagt til rette MMO markedet, og fått mange flere til å se muligheten i slike spill. Dermed er det på en måte "lettere" for andre som kommer etter å få en "flying" start.
Men, hvis nykommerne skal holde på spillerne må de levere. Uansett, 400k den første uken er bra, men markedet trodde det skulle bli enda bedre. Derfor er kursen nede på 40 tallet igjen i dag.

Gått opp enda en plass. Føler prisfallet ikke er berettiget; bare 3 dager siden spillet ble lansert i Europa f.eks., når de tallene ble lagt ut.

Noen som fremdeles sitter i FUNCOM?
Orion i går:
Selv sitter jeg ikke lengre i aksjen, og er dermed ikke så oppdatert på informasjon, men registrerer at aksjen har nesten vært helt nede på 40 tallet.

Etter børsens stengetid onsdag sendte Orion Securities ut en oppgradering på Funcom-aksjen. Aksjen får nå en kjøpsanbefaling, samtidig som kursmålet heves fra 26,40 kroner til 56 kroner, altså en oppgang på 112 prosent.

Orion fra i går :
Age of Conan conquers the market
Age of Conan was launched without any major technical issues in both North America and Europe. As of May 26th Funcom has 0,4m active players. The numbers look impressive and so far the launch is going according to the high case scenario for Funcom. The company reported Q1 results, however, they are not significant since they do not include numbers from Age of Conan yet.
Currently the market leader World of Warcraft has around 10,0m subscribers. Age of Conan could bite a chunk of those subscribers. The biggest competitor of Age of Conan Warhammer online was delayed until fall 2008, thus the current timing is very good for Funcom.
As our confidence in the company increases we upgrade our base case esti-mate of the maximum number of subscribers achieved to 1,2m and our DCF-based target price from NOK 26,40 to NOK 56,00. This implies our 6-month recommendation upgrade from Hold to Buy.
Conclusion

This implies our 6-month recommendation upgrade from Hold to Buy. The risk still remains high.

En drink som reflekterer handelen på OSE i disse tider, KAMIKAZE :
2 cl Cointreau
1 cl frisk sitronsaft
4 cl vodka
Fremgangsmåte:
Ha ingrediensene i en shaker med is. Shake og server i et avkjølt cocktailglass eller highballglass. Garner med en limeskive.

Jeg sitter fremdeles i Funcom; synes aksjefallet var uberettiget m.t.p de gode salgstallene.
Gid jeg visste hvordan andre ville tolke de nyhetene :P
Ser på analysen til Orion nå, ser også at de bare regner på AoC slik som det er akkurat nå - har ikke tatt høyde for utvidelsespakker, porting til konsoll og andre inntektskilder. De kalkulerer på en peak a 1,2 mill brukere, oppnådd rundt 2010.
Kan noen gi meg rett til å legge ut filer her? Er vel greit å legge ut .pdf filen, eller?
Forventer forøveri at kursen vil stige imot 55 igjen, nå som "seriøse" analysehus støtter en oppside.
BTW: Orion har tideligere hevet kursmålet til 50kr. Merkelig at de sier ifra 26 til 56 nå..

Status of the launch
The Age of Conan game now has over 500.000 active players (players who have registered their purchased game key in the Company’s registration and billing system). The game has as expected performed very well on the sales charts in the launch week and has been on top of the sales charts in many major markets.
The retail box of Age of Conan is now reported as sold out or close to sold out in many shops and areas in several markets. Eidos, the retail-publishing partner for Age of Conan, is working to resupply the retail chains and will be shipping more product to retail in the coming weeks.
The Company may report if special milestones are reached as part of further building PR and marketing momentum for the Age of Conan game. Funcom will however, not report subscriber numbers on a regular basis, and will provide additional financial guidance before the Second Quarter 2008 reporting.

Funcom har nå sendt ut til sammen 1 million eksemplarer av Age of Conan og har til nå solgt mellom 600-700.000. Alt dette på ca 3 uker.
http://www.funcom.co.......T&item=1004
Det blir en spennende tid fremover for Funcom.

Hvis ab. tallene fortsetter å stige slik i tiden fremover så skal dette bli interessant. Kanskje jeg skal vurdere å kjøpe meg inn igjen. Litt spent på om den faller litt igjen over helgen etter den brukbare oppgangen i dag.

Jag köpte på mig några Funcom aktier igen. Risken har minskat. Jag har dock inte lika många som förrut.
Utvecklingen av produkten har vänt och går nu i den riktning jag vill samt att försäljningen börjar att gå bra. youtube gör också sitt jobb och gör bra reklam för spelet, vilket bäddar för en försäljning över 1 miljon.

PRESS RELEASE: Age of Conan Reaches One Million Milestone (Dow Jones)
2008-06-06 08:00
- Standard Edition Sold out in Numerous Territories, Hundreds of
Thousands Additional Copies Now Shipping -
- Officially Number One on the Charts in All Major Markets -
DURHAM, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 06, 2008--
Funcom is proud to announce that Age of Conan will pass the astounding "One Million Copies Shipped" milestone in less than three weeks after the launch of the game. Due to overwhelming demand Funcom's retail partner is now re-supplying retail boxes rapidly while also including new markets to the mix. As a result of the tremendous interest from gamers, Age of Conan has for the past few weeks been claiming number one spots on sales charts across the Western world - including the US, Germany, France and the UK - while receiving glowing review scores from gaming media.
"Sales data shows that Age of Conan is the biggest MMO launch since World of Warcraft," said Funcom Vice President of Sales and Marketing Morten Larssen. "The numbers are very promising, and we are very proud to be one of the fastest selling PC games ever in a launch month and the biggest simultaneous Europe/US MMO launch in history."
In the US, Age of Conan has a strong #1 chart position and is now moving past the 500,000 shipped mark. Meanwhile the attention for the game is growing across the globe, with over 8 million unique visitors from over 200 countries to the Age of Conan websites so far in 2008. The community surrounding the game is also growing fast, with over 800,000 signing up as members of the Clan of Conan fan club.
Age of Conan was launched May 20th in the US and May 23rd in Europe, receiving critical acclaim from media across the globe. "Age of Conan has raised the bar," wrote US gaming website Gamezone, giving the game a score of 94 out of 100. Gamespot, one of the world's leading gaming websites, rewarded Age of Conan an 8.5 score, calling it "one of the finest online RPGs available." The game is also receiving acclaim in Europe, where a broad range of early reviews gave an average score of over 90 percent. Funcom is committed to continue to expand and improve on the game by adding more content, features and fixes in order to make Hyboria a favorite place for gamers across the globe, and players can expect some exciting news in the weeks and months ahead.
