I was really looking forward to that, but not at that price... R.I.P. City of Heroes and my 17 characters there |

I think if you had the TP to burn ,and didn't have anyone around to help you solo something that was kicking your buns, that it isn't too shabby of an idea. Personally, I'll never use it. |

Another interesting feature warped and twisted, bent over, and ready to be violated by the all-powerful "Cash shop".
Dammit. |

Damn optional features. How dare they add something that might entice people to spend a little money. I want a mmorpg where people have gone through misery, have gone through school stuff and actually have had sex even. -sagil |

The more you hype an upcoming game in your mind, the more it will fail to meet your expectations. |

Originally posted by WhiteLantern Damn gamers. How dare they want to pay a set fee for a game and not be constantly harassed by cash shop advertisements on loading screens. |

Originally posted by Typosos Wish they included a link to this... Medallions... I'm guessing you use the same medallions that you earn in skirmishes, maybe? So basically you have to do skirmishes from time to time to get the medallions you need to pull them out into the open world. Not too fond of this, but I suppose there has to be SOME cost for having them out, or everyone would just use them all the time. |

Originally posted by Nimar That's why I gave up on LOTRO end last year after the Isengard expac fiasco! The whole game is completely store focussed now. The amount of spam mail I am getting from Turbine regarding Store sales is reflecting that all too well. /Facepalm |

Originally posted by tawess Paying the monthly fee still does not get you the Skirmish Soldier on the landscape feature. At this point, Im calling it quits with LoTRO and skipping the monthly fee, and just going on my merry way. |

Originally posted by Flaming_MMO You apparently continue to miss the bit where you can use skirmish points to buy the tokens to bring them out into the open world. In other words, You spend the stuff you make while USING them in the skirmishes to be able to use them OUTSIDE the skirmishes. You DO NOT have to use TP. |

It would be better if they add an option to have them permanently for like a 1000TP

Originally posted by Robsolf You apparently missed the where the cost of a level 71+ soldier is 1500 marks and 75 medallions. That's insane. You can play this feature for "free" like you can farm stat tomes easily in dungeons. I have all the expansions and unlocked wardrobe and shared storage, but still this game isn't worth the time or money anymore. Turbine goes after your wallet every chance they get. I gave their "hybrid" model more than a fair chance. I would rather just pay my $13/mo in my P2P game and get it ALL for that price. Hell, the last update to my game came included for the cost of my sub and was way larger than RoI. I do really miss the friends and playing around in Middle Earth. I don't really miss Turbine's wallet grab. |

Originally posted by Robsolf No, I am aware as I saw that posted a few days ago, and as someone mentions, the cost is absurd (in the amount of marks and medallions) I am a casual solo player, so the alternative to TP is not viable either. The non-greedy thing to do would be just to charge in game currency like Everquest and Everquest 2 do for their mercenary system. Maybe around 10 silver every 30 minutes starting at the level they are obtained, and that price would increase to 100 silver at level cap |

Originally posted by kostoslav i,m sure if it does'nt take off..they will do something like that.personally i dont have a problem with this..the only ones that seem to have a problem are the freebies..guess i,m lucky being a lifer..but i have to say i dont remember anywhere in the game that you require skirm soldier..if you are in a kin i,m sure they would help you down a mob you are having trouble with. And has for it being more store focussed i,m sure GW2 and TSW are going to be the same.i have about 8k TP from monthly allowance.hardly ever touch the store.that is the way all mmo's are going..not to mention lotro has about the best f2p model on the market atm. |
