  • You could try Heroes of Three Kingdoms or Regnum Online, both f2p.
    in Need new game- PvP Comment by GidSlack November 2010
  • Heroes of the Three Kingdoms.
    in Is there anything close to Daoc? Comment by GidSlack November 2010
  • Thanks for this review.  It's probably one of the best things out there on the web about HOTK. I've only been playing for a week, but so far I'm very impressed.  Good RvR games are extremely rare.  To find one of the quality of HOTK is f**king awe…
    in Detailed Review after a few months of playing HOTK Comment by GidSlack November 2010
  • Originally posted by Redline65 It's the whole game that has the capability to be instanced now once the population in a zone gets too high. Unfortunately you are unable to switch instances manually, so the implementation is actually worse than other…
    in So how's the F2P going? Comment by GidSlack September 2010
  • Originally posted by denshing Originally posted by needalife214 Originally posted by denshing I have been hearing a lot of DAOC vets saying that to them this is the closest thing to DAOC to look forward to. Am I getting this right? …
    in How many expect this to be like DAOC? Comment by GidSlack September 2010
  • So far, so good. The starter areas (Bree, Shire etc.) are all hopping, and everyone I've encountered so far has been great. Chat channels like GLFF or OOC seem a bit more inane than usual, though this is more with dumb comments than out and out …
    in So how's the F2P going? Comment by GidSlack September 2010
  •   They also mention skirmish instances for PvMP are also in the very early stages of development. That will be a major change to LotRO if it is ever implemented.
    in Warcry chat with the Devs, Transcript Comment by GidSlack September 2010
  • Originally posted by seabass2003 Quick rundown, first you have to be VIP, then you make a monster character. After that you join up with other monster characters and can either PVE in the Ettenmoores or you can PVP against the free people of middle …
    in monster mode Comment by GidSlack August 2010
  • Originally posted by Eliandal   Really, unless money is tight and you absolutely cannot afford it, going VIP is really the best value.  On a multi-month plan it comes out to 10 bucks per month.  With an active subscription, you also get 500 TP's per…
    in Is it worth going P2P from the start? Comment by GidSlack August 2010
  • Originally posted by Muridan I love this game, it's one my favorites of all time, right along with UO.   That being said, anyone who defends the "PvP" that LotRO has is doing so blindly, and just for the sake of defending the game. Stop being fa…
    in How is the PVP in LOTRO? Comment by GidSlack August 2010
  • If you don't want to be pointed to the next quest, wouldn't the simplest solution be to turn off the pointer (if that option is offered)?  Everyone should be able to enjoy the content in the way they want. As for making nice gear easier to get, is…
    in What I fear Comment by GidSlack August 2010
  • I'm also really worried about this when LotRO f2p goes live.  As a former subscriber, I have a character on Brandywine.  This obviously puts me behind VIP's in the login queue. Would it be worthwhile as a f2p player to actually transfer servers; a…
    in Which NA server has the LOWEST population? Comment by GidSlack August 2010
  • Thanks for the rundown NortonGB.  I've checked out the website of UWO, and it looks great.  It should be a very polished and robust game. The exploration in the game looks like it is going to be outstanding too (my main interest).  Not many games …
    in Upcoming competitor for PotBS? Comment by GidSlack August 2010
  • Originally posted by Skooma2 I expect the log in queues for f2pers to be mind-numbing for at least a few weeks, regardless of your server.  I suppose it depends on how many new servers they open up before launch.     Thanks for the info.  For…
    in Unofficial Welcome from LOTRO subscriber Comment by GidSlack August 2010
  • The one featured on Massively is Captains of the Dark Tide, I think: http://www.playdarktide.com/ Uncharted Waters Online looks like it will probably be better, as it is made by an established Korean company.  But it will probably have a ruinous…
    in Upcoming competitor for PotBS? Comment by GidSlack August 2010
  • I have a character on Brandywine from my days as a subscriber.  LotRO is no longer my main game, but my guild is interesting in playing it as our 2nd game. We will all be playing it as f2p, so is it worthwhile that they roll on Brandywine, or will…
    in Unofficial Welcome from LOTRO subscriber Comment by GidSlack August 2010
  • Originally posted by bhug 2010.8.17 I think while one is a 'VIP' (an ongoing subscriber) during the ftp release they keep access to content they have already payed for (e.g. the MoM expansion) and any characters one creates while VIP maintains tho…
    in Have Moria box, activate now or after F2P launch? Comment by GidSlack August 2010
  • Thanks for the info. Going to tell my guild, hopefully this will be our second game when we are not pvp'ing.
    in F2P Starts Sept 10th Comment by GidSlack August 2010
  • Originally posted by Nebless Originally posted by GidSlack Apologies if this question has been answered before (as I'm sure it has).  What would happen in this situation: 1) Previously subscriber with Moria and Mirkwood expansions. …
    in So LOTRO goes free..Why indeed... Comment by GidSlack August 2010
  • Originally posted by Nebless Originally posted by Robsolf I assumed this, because right now, if you're subbed and in the middle of a zone and you've cancelled, you'll get the message "login failed- account not active".  IMO that's a much les…
