+longgonebn Subscriber² Posted March 20, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted March 20, 2008 I finally got the Special Edition in the mail today. Which I paid $14.99 for it because of a deal they had. Some pretty cool extra stuff they give ya with this. Can't wait to start playing the game more now! Might post some video content later on.

gigapixels Veteran Posted March 20, 2008 Veteran Share Posted March 20, 2008 So after trying the trial a second time (I tried it a while back, but never got into it) I have officially dropped my WoW sub and have signed up for this. I got bored of the story and everything in WoW and I wanted something new, and it looks like LOTRO is the one for me. We'll see how long I stay, but I'm liking it a lot so far.

+longgonebn Subscriber² Posted March 21, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted March 21, 2008 Sweet deal, wish I had a lifetime subscription, I might be starting a new character and I might go onto that server.

tiagosilva29 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Is the lifetime account option still available? What will happen with the release of the first expansion? Will it cover it as well, or you're bound to purchased it aside? Googling it, it seems that the character development is pretty much linear (you have to purchase skills but you can use them all), and there's some boosters called traits that you can customize at will, but are limited to slot space/level. Correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+longgonebn Subscriber² Posted March 22, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted March 22, 2008 Yes that is correct from what I know. And how much would a lifetime subscription cost anyways? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(Spork) Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 so i have been playing when i can im a lvl 7 hunter the game is like wow but yet different i think i might give the game a go after the 7 day trial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+longgonebn Subscriber² Posted March 22, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted March 22, 2008 That is what I did, I enjoy it very much. To bad you didn't decide earlier, they had the Special Edition of the game for the price of the regular game, don't think it's going on anymore.

tiagosilva29 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 From Wikipedia: In North America, players who pre-ordered the game were offered a special founder's offer, a lifetime subscription for $199 or reduced cost of $9.99 per month. Standard month fee is $14.99 with three, six and twelve month discounts available. European players had a similar program from Codemasters. The special edition, which costs $10 more than the regular edition, includes a full-color manual, an item called "Glass of Aglaral", a cloak of regeneration, which is visually different from the one in the regular edition, a "Making of" DVD, soundtrack, and a free 10-day buddy key. (~_~) This is bull****. And since I'm at work, I can't investigate this further. First, I signed to beta test it. I downloaded the client during the night and installed it in the morning. I couldn't log in. So, I checked my email and the website... to find out that the test was closed. 200 dollars (or < euros) are a lot of bling for a ?400-a-month guy, and I really wonder if in 30 years the game would still be online. (Better question: would humans still be alive in 30 years?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantrastic Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 hey bman, can u tell me anything about LOTRO pvp, or theres not much of pvp? i read somewhere its alot about quests mainly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+longgonebn Subscriber² Posted March 23, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted March 23, 2008 From going between WOW & LOTRO, wow for sure has more PVP in it, I have not seen many PVP battles within LOTRO, yet I am not a PVP character, I have not done much with it.

Dijital Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 Lifetime sub is sitll available for a one-time fee of $299 for non-founders. PvMP in LOTRO is quite fun and I fancy it quite often. It is a zone that you must be lvl 40 before you can go in to the zone to fight. On the monster side you play a creep that is lvl 50 and gain abilities by gaining ranks and completing quests, I personally have not done much on the creep side, but the freep side is a blast.

Mantrastic Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 oh well thats not a game for me then I guess, I need alot of PVP in a game :x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dijital Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 What the heck is a founder? A founder is anyone who pre-ordered the game before it went retail, they were given special pricing and other in-game benefits. Such as you can get a free mount at lvl 25, but it's not as fast your normal mount, but still faster than walking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
