Official LOTRO thread


Recommended Posts

So I read that people who use to play LOTRO can come back this weekend and play free. How do I do this? I went to my account managment screen, and I see nothing about free play. All I see is to sign up for billing cycles.

Any idea how I can get back in on this "free" weekend, because I'm not seeing this option.

So hows everyone enjoying Moria? It's about 10 times better than i ever imagined. The design and scale is just immense!

I'm still topside enjoying the new zone, should hit 51 tonight or tomorrow, then heading in to the darkness. I'm also very pleased so far, Turbine really knows how to polish an RPG.

Yeah my friend just went to Conan. I might try getting on your server again bman but I don't plan to be as hardcore with it since I haven't even reached high levels with my main char on Landroval.

There's a point where you think enough is enough and get going on doing one thing better rather than five things at once eh?

Any of you use xfire? Easier to coordinate that way/

yea I am bmangamer on Xfire. http://www.xfire.com/profile/bmangamer/

I am not that hardcore of a player anymore either, never was. I am only level 21 or something, main char. I haven't played for a few months, wants to start playing more so if you actually got on my server it would be nice, but are you on NA servers?

Anyone happen to be on Windolfa(sp?) if so be sure and look me up - here are my toons:

Allegretto 51 Captain

Makali 50 Lore-master

Emeryl 57 Hunter

Celess 47 Burglar

Ghalian 11 Rune-Keeper

Feel free to send a tell I'm usually on most evening from 8pm cst to 11pm cst or so.

I'm happy to roll a new char on another server if we can all meet on one and start a char together?

My current server is Snowbourn.

Is there any way for us in the EU to play with you guys in the US?

stupid tnt lord of the rings marathon got me in the mood to finally play the game again. so i just put in for a character transfer to brandywine (supposedly the most populated server) so i can see people playing the game again

I might transfer to that as well, who knows.

I sure wish I had the money to re-sub to LoTRo again. I really miss playing it, even though none of my toons have ever gotten above level 15 yet lol. It's just a really fun PvE game all around. Sigh.

I cant afford it atm either but i just went and bought a 60 day gametime card from ebay for ?8($11) that way the cash is upfront and i have 2 months to play, if i cant afford it in 2 months then i will wait till i have ?8 to use on LOTRO again and buy another card. All it is is 1 less takeaway a month and im set.

I just bought Moria as well, i quit the game at level 39 because i got bored of it, i recently bought gametime and ive reached level 49 in a week im really enjoying playing again and i cant wait to get to Moria.

Glad I don't have to add money to LOTRO when I want to play, good ol Lifetime membership lol

I also wish there was not 50 other games out, and 20 new games a day.

I only have 1 char, at like 21 or something, I really want to catch up with all the books, and hit level 50. But arrrrg, no one really plays, or at least not when I can.

Just ordered this today, been playing the trial version for a day or 2 and made it to level 15 as a Rune Keeper, unfortunately I signed up for the US trial by accident :(, so gotta start it all over again when my box arrives, think im gonna roll a Minstrel.

Anyone on the EU servers that can recommend which server I should play on, I dont wanna miss out on all the original content (gief pugs) as I always use low level dungeons in MMO's to truly learn how to heal with my character (cant really be done solo and its usually too late at max level). I would class my self as semi-casual in that I usually play games everyday for a good few hours but im not the sort to stay up till ungodly hours of the morning raiding.

Any reccomendations from EU people would be great :)

Thanks in advance.

    • Steam Next Fest returns with thousands of new demos to try out by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Valve has been routinely kicking off demo festivals on Steam for years now, and the second drop of 2026 has just opened its doors. It's a great opportunity for any PC gamers to find some interesting games before they release. The June edition of Steam Next Fest is a week-long digital festival including gameplay slices from a large number of indie developers, though a few major publishers are involved this time too. Interested players can use the Next Fest hub page's various sorting and filtering options to easily sort through the hordes of demos available. The top buttons offer quick access to separate and important sorting options, including "By Genre, By Theme, By Feature," with each one offering more granular settings when clicked. At the same time, the built-in Steam tags system is also available below every page to discover new games more quickly. As always, logging in will also enable Steam gamers to utilize Valve's recommendation algorithms to find game demos they might like, specifically, depending on their past play and purchase histories. This time there is even a toggle now to swap between getting a random and personalized selection as Valve collects more data on the available demos. The Charts section is where you can find the most popular demos on the platform right now, offering up the most hyped titles in a simple list. Right at the kickoff, Mistfall Hunter, Empulse, Echoes of Aincrad, Onimusha: Way of the Sword, Over the Hill, Mortal Shell II, and more are trending. Expect this list to change as the week progresses. This edition of the Steam Next Fest is slated to end on June 22 at 10 AM PT. Valve's latest event is now open, and it can be accessed by going to the dedicated hub page here.
    • I lived and breathed MSN Messenger/Windows Live Messenger. Going to the mess.be website (still online with no changes since 2013) to download display pictures etc. I was a beta tester for Messenger Plus! and spent quite a lot of time on the MsgPlus! forums (a read-only copy is still online at https://shoutbox.menthix.net) Some old Neowin articles also https://www.neowin.net/news/messenger-plus-350/ good times but how time flies
    • Well i'll look into a docking station if needed and use that.    Normally i don't usually have all the drives connected at once,  usually once a month to sync the latest files, and then they go back in there storage area   
    • memories! completely forgot about alcohol 120%!!!! man this list just makes me think of all the exciting times! everything's become so sterilized these days.
