  • If you could ask Tolkien one question what would it be? The developers of Lord of the Rings Online answered this in their Developers Corner

    Welcome to the Thursday Insider. In each Insider, we'll ask team members to answer a question about themselves, LOTRO, or The Lord of the Rings. You never know what you'll get from the LOTRO team!

    In this Insider, we've asked two questions from the community. Enjoy!

    Jeffrey "Nigellian" Steefel (Executive Producer):
    If you could travel to Middle-earth, and had one week to stay there, what would you most like to do with that time?

    Chris "Hakai" Clay (Artist/Designer):
    If you could have lived the life of one of your characters who would it be and why?

    And my question.. Why did Peter Jackson make a mockery of your book for the purpose of Star screen time? *cough* Liv Tyler *cough*..

  • PC.Ign.com has A tour of the Human Intro Maps by the Netdevil himself. Also included are 20 brand spankin new screenshots for your viewing pleasure.

    After Rigby had gone through numerous procedures to receive his Hestia ID badge -- a nice drive through the Bay 313 Caverns, followed by a visit to Emergence Terrace -- he did more procedural work. Finally, he received an assignment to the Trial Zone, where he went through some mock combat before finally getting his official badge and transferred to the Back Range.

    Mommy.. can I have the shiny blue one with the side gatlin guns and the heat seaking missle block on top?

  • Adventure Starts Here
    MMORPG.com
    has some Official Exclusive Lore for RF Online.

    Chapter 5 : Novus, the new hope

    Doctor Dohyun and his companions escaped the Lablum sector before its annihilation,
    beginning their voyage to nowhere. The search was for any inhabited galaxy
    containing human life. Messages were transmitted into the ether, only to be
    met with the silence of empty planets and the cold of space. Their journey,
    it would seem, would be a long and arduous one and with that prospect, the
    team continued on with their research into the Holy Mental.
    Slowly over time, members of the research team and survivors of the disaster,
    began to die through natural causes. Time had slipped by for these last members
    of the Arcane Club, but Dohyun’s hope and belief of finding traces of
    humans kept him alive. Even after 30 years, his heart drove his passion for
    survival. With all but three members of the team now remaining, it was with
    huge excitement and relief when they discovered a planet, thriving with sentient
    life and human activity within the Novus sector.

  • Can you hear me grumbling in Colorado? Well you should, because I am! The Matrix Online topped my biggest disapointments list ever this year. It was cool in relation to avatars and clothes and junk.. BUT C'MON! If I wanted to play City of Heroes.. I'd be playing City of Heroes!

    I digress..There's a brand spankin new Designer Journal on Data Node One - The offical website.

    I’m pleased to say that the team has been making great progress. We’ve had a busy month working on game improvements including the SOE mail system and the first phase of the content revamp. And now, as we head into the last month of 2005, our hard work on the combat revision is paying off. The main focus of today’s journal is to explain the first part of the combat revision and I think you will love the changes.

  • Here's the weekly bucket of goodness for all of you DAOC fans out there. Mythic has released Pat 1.81e.

    Darkness Falls access change is the big news this edition. There's also a cool new recall stone system for those who own the Darkness Rising expansion. We may reevaluate that limit in the months to come, but for now it's like the advanced horses - a great reason to get Darkness Rising. Come for the recall stones and horses, stay for the quests and cake.

  • Today, the official site is promoting a new Weapons Tool that gives information on all of the weapons in game.

    Need a bit more information on weapons?

    Thanks to the guys over at the ever popular RFO community site //RFO.Asterix// comes a great little tool to help you in your weapon selection. By clicking on a particular weapon, you can see what potential that weapon has with additional talics. There may be a slight problem for IE users which I believe is being looked at.

    Big thanks to SpongeX and Xanavi for their work on this and the rest of the database.

    You can find the tool Here on the new non-harsh looking RF Online Forums.
