DDO 2 Year Anniversary

[Ganak]

I'm trying to plan vacation days for the anniversary, I was hoping to get some information.

First, when technically is the anniversary date? I was thinking March 1st, but if I recall correctly, we began a few days earlier with pre-launch.

Will there be a loot weekend? Or other event? I'm sure there may be surprises that wont want to be blown, but any information that would be useful in deciding days off would be most appreciated. Specifically the time frame. I'm thinking of taking off 2/28 and 2/29, but it all depends on when the anniversary update rolls out and how long special things will be in effect.

Asking a lot I know, but the forum PR folks responded to a similar request I had last year and it was a huge help. Thanks!

February 24 ish I think.

Well, this probably can't be considered "official" or anything, but Amazon lists DDO as coming out on February 28th, 2006.

The first day you could buy it in a store was March 10.

The first day I played DDO was February 24th 2006 (my first two characters were rollled that day - still playing one of them!), but that was during 'pre-release'.

I am not certain, but I believe Turbine officially recognizes a date in early March...

I also am excited about the 2 year Anniversary events, and hope your post gets some sneak peak info as to what is planned.

It is VAST and MYSTERIOUS!

Thats all.

While it is both vast and mysterious, you can expect that it will not begin earlier than Feb 27th, for it has to correlate with our anniversary... now no more hints

Heh, I have to have a surgery done soon, so I scheduled it on the 28th. DDO is the same as bed rest, right?

Well headstart was on the 24th and I am still playing one character from then he is my main still, the regular start was on the 28th. The price break for 6 months was a pretty good way for them to start so things can only get better from there.
