What has Turbine been up to with Dungeons & Dragons Online:
Stormreach (DDO)? Let's take a look:

UI Improvements



    * NEW –
We are adding Guild Names! The will be visible under player names.

    * NEW –
Party Member names will be distinguished from other player names by
color.

    * NEW –
The colors for names of party members, other players, npcs, and
monsters will be able to be changed.

    * NEW –
Displayed damage values for sneak attacks and critical hits will appear
in a distinctive fashion.

    * NEW –
Hostile monsters names will now appear in a configurable color (default
red). Friendly or neutral monster’s names will look like NPCs names
rather than hostile monster’s names.

    * NEW -
"Accept Choice" is no longer mapped to the number pad enter key by
default. Existing players will still have this mapped to the number pad
enter key and will need to change the setting on their own if they wish
to unmap it. "Accept Choice" is intended to be what you use to answer
"yes" to dialogs in the game. This change will prevent players from
accidentally releasing from their body when they did not wish to.

    * NEW -
When dragging items over the equipment slots in the UI, they will only
highlight if the slot is compatible with the item. In addition,
whenever you select an item, all of the compatible inventory slots will
be highlighted.

There's lots more. Check out the complete list [ href="http://ddo.tentonhammer.com/index.php?module=ContentExpress&func=display&ceid=233">here].
