    imo FFXI combat was by far the most well constructed of all mmo's.   Good luck to this game, but it wont dethrone the mighty WoW

    As far as what I can make up out of your text, you haven't played it yet so how can you even judge it?

    I wanna test LOTR online too because I think it has some pretty good gameplay

    LOTRO

    same engine and graphics, I almost died lol when I saw the "hunter"(ranger) in ddo padded armor.

    same combat as ddo

    actually same every thing as ddo cept swap hobbits 4 halflings and add 1000x more content and an interactive world (not instanced)

    diff abilities but same principle traits=feats

    I hope it goes well for them, as ddo is dying of lack of content.

    DDO was (is) a beta for all the things going into lotro

    LOTRO has officially went into Beta.  It was announced this morning here.  If anyone gets an invite please let us know. According to information on the official LOTRO website, the Beta invitations only started today (except for the special mmorpg.com drawing).

    If someone gets an invite, and lets us know, they would probably be breaking the NDA of the game.  I'm pretty sure MMORPG.com ban accounts of people that break the NDA of games.  So, I wouldn't recommend doing it.

    I'm glad we are finally here.

    Now all I need is my winning ticket number from the mmorpg.com. :)

    Is it just me or does getting a beta key for LOTRO have that "Golden Ticket" feel? Like "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory". Maybe if I get one Gandolf will meet me at the gates to Middle Earth. Hope he doesn't sing though.

    I heard the VIP code you get isn't even a golden ticket to getting into the beta

    you'll just have advantage over others I read somewhere on their forum

    Though LOTRO has gone into Beta, it is not Open Beta...so yes, anyone who responds to anything concerning LOTRO will be breaking the NDA.  Oh..on a completely safe topic, Turbine is now looking at a Spring 07 launch date instead of what everyone else has been hoping for (December 06).

    I cannot wait for the open-beta. I am also very excited at the idea that this will not be a movie clone.. it's a book clone. Never read the books but from what I heard, they are awesome. Let's just hope my "middle of the road" pc can play it well. I can play Lineage 2 with everything on but that's a whole different can-o'-worms all together.

    FF11 has over 500,000 subscribers.

    well i for one hope it'd good, we sure could use good game(s) to play...i prefer to play ones i start out in beta personally tho

    I haven't had a good impression of LOTRO.  There is a lack of information, however.  Many concepts and developments that can make or break this game are still up in the air.  Not only are they not being worked on, but they haven't been decided on yet.  Seems to me like they are just trying to capitilze on the great story of Lord of the Rings and ride the coat tails to make some money.  I may be wrong.  We'll be able see in the near future.

    this game is goin to be too good cant wait

    The combat system is nothing like FFXI, it's just the same as a typical mmorpg. Click and kill.

    I believe it has potential.  I would love to get my hands on a beta key.
