It is only if you have profanity filter on, so I have never noticed this before. Is it standard for all names of games or just this one?

Great to hear. Hope it carries on being fun. I am loving it too

Thanks to my mum being left some money and wanting to cheer me up (long story short DWP are screwing me out of my PIP which is my car and lifeline and the took it by twisting and lying about the whole interview) she has got me an amazing gaming laptop but that isn't what is funny (it is now I have sorted it after a day and evening of pain trying to sit and sorting it) It has a RTX 2080 Super but when I went on LotRO I was getting 20 FPS on top settings. This was after managing to sort out the problem of not loading due to no Direct X9 then only showing Direct X9 in the settings) so I reformatted and downloaded everything twice and had the same issue. Then a kind soul in chat sorted it. It was using for some stupid reason the on board tiny Intel GFX card not the beast! Now I am a happy chap as getting 250-300 FPS on ultra, just need to be in bed all day now from sitting on my painful bit all day! PJ

That’s the chap. It does seem reading through comments that it wasn’t going to be an MMO to start with and people preferred the original product. I am enjoying it though but I don’t play hardly any games at all apart from LotRO so maybe if I did more my enjoyment would be less. No subscription just the original cost plus a dreaded store but hopefully that won’t be too bad

Anyone else trying the preview week of this new Amazon Games MMO? I am and loving it so far. Amazing graphics and good fun. talking of which I am only getting 30-40FPS but it is buttery smooth, is that because the game engine is a lot newer than LotRO? been put back to May next year but have pre ordered so will get access to future closed beta.

I thought pvp was banned from happening due to the people who grant the LotR licence not allowing it? Isn’t this what some people have wanted for years? Why not do this before?

No, LOTRO ... I'll see myself out

Surely if this brings in new players and gets some old players back this is a good thing? Have any other MMOs done this? Sometimes it is good to see things at face value and not try and over think anything devious has happened. Just a nice gesture in dark times.

Or it could be logins when you put your username and password in initially?

Did they even open or was it just to get the update?

Nice to see the servers opened earlier than announced

So if they knew 2 weeks ago why didn’t they do something about it?
