More question from me again :D

in Lord of the Rings Online

As you well know i asked some question this morning and i am extremely grateful for the answers i got back, thanks for that, and now im trusting you to answer more.

First thing is, there was a person in this forum that asked if there was guild houses or something and someone answer that they will be working on making guild houses later in the game, if anyone has any info on that please could they send a thread with a link on it please and i would be most grateful.

Second thing, do you think as the game progresses  turbine might just add some more instruments, cos the two instruments that keep the band together and on track making it sound good, is the bass and the drums, maybe a skin drum would be good if you know what i mean.

Third thing, on monster play can you get your monsters any new items of clothing or any new stats and moves for when you do monster play fights?

fourth thing, this is a question for all the beta players here, but when you are playing in the game, say you have just gone from the town into a forest. Is the forest full of animals scurrying along and just stuff to give the game a little more feel to it. Also i do like my graphics and textures in any game and im just wondering if the sky is really well done and if you are lucky you can watch the sunset and moon shine in the night sky.

fifth thing, another question for beta players, is the instances fun, and are they item gaining and exp gaining.

and last thing is a little poll i would like to do to survey how much people like lotro compared to other games :D

Thankyou again in advance

    Dunno, I believe this will be implemented...I do know they are already planning player housing.

    I'm sure they will...Turbine does great jobs on updates so I wouldn't be surprised if more instruments were implemented.
    Third thing, on monster play can you get your monsters any new items of clothing or any new stats and moves for when you do monster play fights?


    I believe so, I haven't played but I heard its like playing a regular character...so most likely, someone else will have to confirm so

    Yes, no screenshots...forgot to take them, but sunsets are really nice, night sky is okay...I like it myself, lots of stars. Weather isn't in-game yet except for snow until release.


    Haven't seen any animals...I assume there are so because from an official screenshot there was a squirrel in it.
    fifth thing, another question for beta players, is the instances fun, and are they item gaining and exp gaining.


    Different people find different things fun, but I find the instances a lot of fun so far. Since I'm still a lower level I am not sure how item gaining is later, but so far quest items are better. Not sure about crafting items so.

    In some areas, there are foxes and squirrels, but thats not the norm. Usually the mobs in an area look like wolves, bears, boars, but serve a function as mobs and/or quest targets. The game isnt more "alive" than VG, WoW or any other of the sort. Static NPCs, little movement, little non-combat wildlife. But I dont think ANY game has done that so far.



    Instances are ok exp when you do them as part of the quest, the kill exp itself isnt worth mentioning later on .Actually, not even at start. Level through solo questing is the name of the game, advance the story through instances, and get loot from either, or random drop luck. The very last instances are more item-centric of course, in the sense of Stratholme, Scholomance etc.



    Personally, LotR ranks somewhere in the lower medium of MMOs I liked, but its a "lesser of 2 evils" deal right now between VG and LotR for me. VG is the superior game in many aspects, such as higher difficulty and more complex gameplay, but it has a notable amount of griefers and trolls still trying to get it killed, and spreading a lot of bad mood. Also some servers seem to have population issues too, mine doesnt though.

    LotR is something like a hold-over game till the big releases of fall to me, and it hits all the marks by the book. Its not inspiring or anything new, but its solid fare in the vein of a WoW casual game, and content is content, no matter under which game system I experience it.

    In my personal opinion, its not built to last though, with its emphasis on being possible to "finish":
