Yeah, I check almost every day, and it has NOT been up in two weeks!

Thanks for letting us know it would not be up this weekend though

Hopefully this means it WILL be up soon...

DDO is not showing Mod 5 at PAX - because there is no DDO at PAX. They are only showcasing LoTR:O.

yes all the community staff at Turbine were in Seattle for the LOTRO party leaving Ramen behind to hold down the fort. Being a LOTRO staff member she does not know how long it has been down

[Clerical]

Yay today is the 27th lets go play on risia and test the new mod 5 content!

Nm still down.

Mod 5 gonna be released with no user testing or is the plan to delay mod 5 further? Just trying to plan my month.

Best. Announcement. Evar.

Actually, pretty bad communication on their part. Once again we see why there is not a higher player base for a game that could have potential if it werre not due to the lack of communication and fixes for annoyances like spam. Spam in a game. Think about that. Still no fix, just still get spam. Even though they are aware of the problem, we still have no option to turn in junk mail or spam other than wait for the help section to come up.

And then the whole Risia incident. People know characters will get wiped...you have told them, but what you have not told them is how long it would be down. Now they are freaking out about it, which just adds to the whole lunacy of it all.

Nevermind that we pay for a subscription with certain levels of expectations of content being updated or we simply would not play it. Nevermind that you started a game, Dungeons & Dragons of all games, at only half the level, minus a few core classes and minus a few core races just to build flare up for a game in a setting most veterans have never heard of.

But I am just a paying customer who continues to watch history's best RPG slide away into oblivion simply because they lack veteran insight.
