At the moment I think you still have to buy the client somewhere before you can sub though.

Thats true, think at this point you would still have to buy the box, though you can do that digitally. You could just buy the original SoA digitally for £9.99 and not subscribe after the free 30 days is up, that would still make you a premium player when f2p starts.

Thats the route i was going to go with, however am i right in thinking i have to buy the game and its expansions and then pay for the subscription as well?

Depends how much you want to spend..

You could just buy SoA for £9.99 and not subscribe after your free 30 days, which would result in you still being a premium player.

Alternatively you could buy the triple pack (SoA + Moria + Siege of Mirkwood) for £29.99 and not subscriber after the free 30 days, which would result in you still being a premium player.
 
I'm reinstalling this now, always have gone back and forth from this game, resubbing when the SoM was released..but my chars on Snowbourne, I'm guessing your 'all' playing on Laurien?

Think there are some people on Snowbourn, I'm on Laurelin.

The OCUK Kin is on Laurelin? Unless I'm playing with familiar faces, I lose interest quickly. Seems to be a reoccuring theme with me for mulitplayer games these days!

Back to work whilst this does the long haul update, I'll keep an eye out for the kin and hopefully be on tonite :)
 
Was chatting to my guild on Snowbourn last night and one thing worth mentioning for non-subbers, I think you lose the ability to use the auction house/mailbox/couple of bag slots, if you just F2P?

Can someone confirm this please?

F2P players can bid and buy on the AH but cant put items up for sale, everyone can use the mailbox but F2P have time restrictions on how often they can use it (so do Premium players, but they have a lower time restriction).

F2P/Premium players get 3 bags.

However, you can spend turbine points that you build up to buy extra bags, to buy increased mailbox access and to buy the ability to post items on the AH if you want.
 
The problem in Europe is currently unknown, too much speculation and too many unconfirmed rumours.

What we do know is that the infrastructure IS inplace, the servers and the store are working and were ready go do 2 weeks ago.

Waiting sucks yes, we are all bored of killing Durchest over and over again and want to take on helegrod at 65 and Enedwaith which is a very strange zone!

We will hear something from Dnote or Faya pretty soon, i expect an announcement tomorrow after the billing system maintenance and normal maintenance finished.
 
The billing system down? I can't login.

Edit: Nevermind, I'm in. Who's playing?
