So Just finished downloading the highres client, and must say, Turbine has an excellent download server, I got the entire client in one hour and 15 minutes, that's almost 10 gigs of information.   Granted I have a crazy internet connection but still most companies cap the speeds.

Was just wondering on what server to pick, is there a decently populated RP server?    I like to RP but it seems rp servers are always struggling for a population in games.    

IF not what's the most populated core server?  

Thanks in advance.

Landroval is the unoffical RP server in US and they say its one of most poulated servers

In EU there are offical RP servers and the english one is called Laurelin and is also considered to have a large population.

Landroval of course, it has one of the best communities of any game. There are many roleplayers from the lightest of imaginations to really heavy in-character players.

/rp

Elendilmir and Brandywine are the friendliest servers I've been on.

I'm on Arkenstone. It has plenty of nice players but I haven't seen any RPs at all.

Landroval is a friendly and well populated server. Also as said, the unoffical RP server. Welcome to the game.

 Brandywine, Landroval, and Elendilmere are the most populous servers but are also the most unstable servers. If they gave free transfers I would got to a more stable one at teh drop of a hat.

I like Brandywine... 

Good population and once you get out of bree the kiddie chat subsides alot...

good community

I play on firefoot  - medium pop, seems very stable.  not very rp.  I started here when I had an older system.  My new system never has lag here.

 Well started on Landroval with a Warden named Kavarian,  so far the game is beautiful, the dx10 shadows are impressive and even at this early stage I can tell a difference in the community compared to other games, which is probably the most refreshing thing of all, the internet populace makes me weary.

I can't wait to face the long dark of Moria, ever since reading the books and the first movie Moria has always sent my imagination running wild.   Something about large forgotten underground places that sends shivers down my spine, but they are never quite made right in games,  from what I've read it seems like Moria is huge.

   And have to say think it's the first time ever I'm not going to have to make 10 characters out of the gate to find one I like, this warden is just complex enough to satisfy.   

I'm sure there's probably loads of them tho, but no matter.

See you in game!

Anyone know where can i download the hig-res EU client?
