    Anyone on LOTR- online beta?

    Been looking forward to this for some time and finally I've got a key code come through! Anyone else on the beta?

    Through the side door.

    It's not out till around April so hopefully there might be a chance of some more keys.

    Might still be a chance through here: http://www.lotro-europe.com/beta-sig...on=codemsignup

    Join as a Code M member and then click on the Sign up for Beta on the right hand side.

    Haven't played it yet, just downloaded client. Giving it a bash tonight, but unfortunately I can't talk about it until end of Feb - bah!

    If anyone is on it, look out for Dildo Shaggins!

    I think I signed up on that site a while back... Will do it again just to be sure!

    Correction, 'twas a different Codemasters site. Registered anyhoo - cheers for the heads up! And as for the character name, the less said about that...

    When I last looked at it there was no pvp and no choice of playing a caster

    Has this changed at all? It will sell buy the bucket load being LOTR whether it's any good or not. I'm waiting for warhammer online myself

    Lee, let me know how you get on. Mine's stopped halfway through downloading and doesn't seem to want to start again.

    I used the UK server for download.

    ditto Steven.

    I've scrapped downloading it for a day or two while the servers don't die and then I'll be playing it

    and this is the reason I won't be playing it, I feel it will ruin the LoTR experience for me.

    Not to mention that every-other person will have a name that will be a variation on the spelling on Legolas....

    We had the exact some conversation in the guild on wow last night about the amount of 10 year olds that will kill the game with rubbish like that. As I said tho, it will still sell well.
