This game apparently will have a combat system similar to the final fantasy series, if this proves to be true the game may suck since FF11 didnt do too well. However if it has a good combat system it could be one of the best mmo's of the year ;) (\ (\ (O.o) ((")(")

Not sure what you mean by FFXI didn't do too well, they're doing an awesome job. I have high expectations for LOTR Online, I hope it doesn't turn out to be guildwars, where you can play the entire game without interacting with other players.

Where the heck do you get that?

From playing the alpha at PAX the engine is similar to DDO (using the same base) but is more advanced. It has more of a feel of WoW than DDO, however. The attacks, skills, powers, etc. flow better than DDO does and the combat is more akin to other MMOs than DDO (as DDO tries to emulate P&P D&D). So far it is very impressive in the stage it is in. Graphics are nice, better environments than DDO though it seemed that it was toned down a bit from the peak I've seen screenshots of in order to run better for a demo. I'm happy about what I've seen so far and can't wait for the beta to open up more!

I would be incredibly happy if the combat resembles that of FFXI. The AI in LotRO is so advanced, testers at several european conventions found it difficult completing the "Weathertop" mission. You get flanked, they target the weakest first, they talk to each other, its quite amazing. It's going to be a ~7 month closed beta, no open beta, I think it's going to be flawless :)

They stated already that the combat will be quickened, because many people thought the same as you did. Developers of LotRO proved they do listen to their customers demand, I think this is the game that Turbine will show their full worth.

I will have high hopes for LotRO combat system and hope it won't be like EQ2, WoW or Guild Wars.. Which Final Fantasy Character Are You? Take the Magic: The Gathering 'What Color Are You?' Quiz.

I hope it's sweet. I'd be excited if I got in the beta, but I also help it's a little different than the movies. I would like to do a lot more than walk everywhere (see: Clerks 2) Lawl

LOL FF11 combat is horrible. It is a pretty big sucess in japan though. It's better be hated for who you are, than loved for who you aren't.

Well I am just back from the Games Convention in Leipzig/Germany and was able to play LotR there. I find the handling of the game close to DDO. The graphics are ok. Did not havfe that much time to play as there where hundreds of poeple behinnd me. I will definitely give it a try though. ------------------------------------------------------ Do I ever sleep?

Originally posted by Rideon I think that games gonna be sweeeeet looks cool, what about you all :) It may be 'sweet' as you put if, if the people at Turbine do not make every damn thing an instance like they did with DDO...it's damn annoying when you want to go into a shop and it has to load it, and then load to exit. -- Michael

Originally posted by Justice87 If you want my Opinion, I think the game is going to Suck...but that is just me. To be honest, it's going to be more advance in every way than 2moons, korean clones etc. Anyhow... The lack of PvP is the thing that turns me off the most and the linear gameplay and I get a feeling it will be rather "short", no MMORPG shouldnt feel like a linear single-player game. But on the other hand, the gameplay/AI and so on is sugee. I will get this game for retail and probaly play it for one or two months because paying a subscription fee for something that _I THINK_ won't have that many updates and tilt - Or if the role-play in the game will be good, both the playerbase and game mechanics enabling it - it might get more attention from my wallet.

I can't see Turbine implementing slow paced combat. AC had extremely fast paced combat (tanking 10+ mobs at a time, super quick melee). DDO is the way it is because it has to follow the P&P DD.
