    From the US forums:
    Several user are receiving an Authentication Failure error when logging into the game. This is generally cause because you have not correctly registered your retail key to your account. To do this please do the following:

    * Log into https://register.ageofconan.com and sign in using your Age of Conan account.
    * At the top of your account maangement screen will be a notice "Attention Early Access players". Under this notice there is a box to enter in your Retail CD Key. This key can be located inside your retail box (usually on the manual). Click Submit Key after typing in the key.
    * The next page should explain what you will gain with this key. At the bottom there should be a large red box (possibly 2). Click GO! next to the option that you want. I would suggest upgrading your current account so that you tie in your preorder bonuses.
    * Click Upgrade Subscription on the next page.
    * The next page should say: "Success - Upgrade Subscription - Subscription upgraded" in green. If it did you should now be able to log into your account.


    If you have followed this process exactly and you are not able to log into your account then you probably have the wrong client installed.

    There's another fix but I don't think it'd work on the EU client, if that doesn't work for you I'll post it though.

    To be honest im sick of the game already. I got it at 1pm today. Started install and it was taking forever so decided to check was anything running in background. Then pc jammed up so had to restart. Restarted comp started install again 4.3 hours later game is 50% installed. To be fair i know the game is huge, but the install time is a joke. Then need to download a patch not good start really :(

    Anyway peeps hope its going well for ya'll

    Oda!

    Mine was done in less than 20 minutes. The 2 hours to format the 500gb hard drive I was too lazy to setup until I needed it for this though, was alot to take...

    Still, maybe you should see if there is something wrong with your dvd drive or if it is really slow. That doesnt seem normal.
