LOTRO now free to play!

Jingo... · 23 Sep 2010 at 19:21

I can't recall the server I was playing but it had none of the qualities I would play an MMO for - teamplay/interaction/social messing about etc.

From the sounds of things (tiptop), it has become much busier and F2P will no doubt only increase this further!

Only another 9months before I'll have some free time to dedicate to it =p

They are opening new servers when F2P starts but the new players are joining now because the free trial will last until F2P goes live.

This game would be ideal for LeeRoy, no extra work required, brilliant!

I downloaded the torrent from the LotRO forums when I returned to the game a few weeks ago and I was getting about 650kb/s.

Don't do torrents

Delvis · 23 Sep 2010 at 19:45

Going to see if this works...not even played the thing yet

Just re-installing, my only options in the accounts system seem to be to re-sub? Highest level I had was like 32 I think is that why?

Ahhh your right, It doesn't matter which payment option I choose it says Welcome Back Week on the left, my bad.
