So I can still preorder and get that rate and cool stuff during the open beta, no?

As long as you pre-order before the release date(April 24th) you can get the $9.99 rate.If you buy it on April 24th or later you will have to pay the $14.99 rate.
 
I have a few more ?s

1. can you jump? not being able to ruined guild wars for me to an extent.

2. What are the server populations like? 1000? 5000?

3. Is there PvP when roaming around the world?

1. Yes.. only thing I'm a little <_< of is you can fall off a 100 foot cliff and, although you will get a "run through molasses in -20 weather" character movement as punishment for 30 seconds, there is no real damage to you.2. Unknown.. They are planning right now to open something like 10 servers on the first day. They Stress tested the crap out of the servers. They would close all the servers but one and make everyone log into that one for a weekend to see how many peeps could be on before problems got real bad. Hopefully they learned enough from those stress test weekends to tweak what they need.3. No PVP.. You can challenge others to a duel, but other than a "Beat your chest and yell I WON!!" I don't think you get anything for it.

My pre-order screwed up. Just talked to Amazon. Something is wrong. I might cancel that order and order it somewherez else.

 
Okay, went and got the Disk in my hand for the LOTRO preorder.

ALSO picked up a case and pre-order for ET:QW Bwahahaha.

No. There. What means that?And when is the date for ETQW for now? I have seen 6/07 as tentative.
Oh, I forgot, I said in a PM, not a post, that I was going to cancel my Amazon Pre-Order and go to Game Stop and physically pick up the pre-order.Yes, they said June 7th.

Maybe I will mosey on over there in a bit. :nerd:
 
Thinking I might go "preorder" and throw a few bucks down on it. If I decide I don't like it, I can always apply it to something else that I will doubtlessly buy from GS.

 
So anyway, I picked up the Pre-order. I figure it's $5 to see if I like it. If I do, I buy the game and save on the monthly. If not, then I just use the $5 for something else.

Link to where it costs $5.
Go to Gamestop. Give the dude a $5 spot and tell him you want to preorder LOTRO. Of course, if you want to buy it, it will cost retail, but this way you can reserve the cheaper price and get in on the Open Beta for a month.
 
I kinda wish we could at least log on now and create characters and set our servers. Nothing doing right now.

I really hope this game is good. I have loved LOTR since I was in the 5th grade and read the trilogy for the first time. I have probably read through it 5 times since then. :rolleyes:

:thumbup: Me to :lmao:
So go get it, man. :nerd:My interest in WoW faded fairly quickly. It never really grabbed me. I still have another couple of months in my subscription, so I will try here and there, but alas, I won't go beyond that.BTW - Talked to my mom the other day and she is really pushing for me to come back out to Ohio this summer/fall to head up your way and do a golfing trip. I told her we need to add one to our group for the breakfast at Boyd's and round of golf. :nerd:

Never read the book(s) until the movies started getting released.(in his best Joey voice from Friends "I was too busy getting laid in High School" :lol: )Read Lord of the Rings all the way through right before the first movie was released. Then did the same thing before the other two were released.

So you were looking forward to having 13 year old kids from Sweden PK you and take all your loot?

Let me know when and where I'll be there :thumbup: Just don't make a :porked: at Hershbergers. :mellow:
 
Well, when the beta starts tomorrow, which world do we want to meet up in? :D
We could use my teamspeak server.....
:lmao: Darn it, you guys are going to make me go out and get the game :DETA: Gator Shawn, you had mentioned last fall that you may be heading up to the Pro Football Hall of Fame this spring. Any plans to do this??
We hadn't made any plans yet, but we might head north later this summer. Canton is quite a ways away though.

That or the nerd at EB. Fortunately I play(ed) with guys far better then me. ;)

I like the ability to attack at anytime. I want to play a mmo that let's you have the freedom to do anything. A entire world of death match. UO pre T2A but with better graphics. Lootable housing, no blessed items, and the ability to control towns or areas.

I know this doesn't appeal to the masses, but it's what I like so.... :D

 
This thing has been updating the code for hours....slow connection I guess tons of people downloading code.

Seriously, we need to plan this out. What world, what combinations of classes. I usually play rogues or straight tanks in these sorts of games. I'm not usually one to worry about spells scrolls and stuff.

 
I pre-ordered on Amazon. How do I "prove" to the servers that I have paid? I need an activation code, yes? :banned:
