You will not be on Brandywine. The beta server is Bullroarer.

Is it possible to use the official client but change something like realm list to play on beta? I have the game CD so don't want to have to download.
Thanks Bryan, great find :D
Can someone please get a mirror up or something? I downloaded for 3 hours got to 80% and then my computer crashed -.-
Thats because I fail at spelling my own Name, its Ivdor lmao
Is there any way to redeem the turbine points without going in game? I want the points but hoping to play after the beta, unless there is no wipe.
Ummmmmmm.... You can ask someone to do it for you xD ?
Cyber, how do you get 10k points ~!?
ALso, is the infinite gold only for 1 char, or for all chars ? And what about holding bags ?
so anyway, is there a way to access some beta page in lotro.com? (yes I did use the beta key, but like where's the beta section?) Fileplant downloads at turtle speed and I'd like to see if downloader would go any faster.
Is there any torrent for f2p client?
The official downloader on the LOTRO forums is fine for me. Going at 500 kb/s with another download on. About 5 hours to download as it is sharing with the download of Martial Empires. I'm off to sleep anyways, looking forward to it tomorrow, loved LOTRO when I used to subscribe.
Anyways, hope the community will still be awesome even when it goes F2P, doubt it though.
Thanks! Downloading right now!
lol, i think i am blind. Cant find the Lotr Store on their page..
can someone help me? ^^
Does anyone have like 70 hours left on their download? None of the speeds are fast at all.
I dont really know. Probably not, since its for DDO coins and LoTRO uses Turbine Points.
If file planet still has more to sign-ups, grab multiple Turbine Point keys that way. They can all stack into one account.
Be back online after class. Everyone playing add me to your friends list.

yeah i got allready 5 keys. If you keep going this you can get enough points for 1,2 years xD
I was wondering, what can i get for the points ?
Well i've just had a really nice shocker of a moment
I noticed that i still had the download file installed so i clicked on it and LOTR only needs another 3-4 hours till it downloads (i gotta clean out a 4ft fish tank and set it up)
:) guess ill see you guys tonight
Lesson, we have learned.
Buy Lifetime Sub from Turbine, but not from Cryptic ~!
Thanks Bryan. Never bothered trying the free trial even since I knew I could never pay for it.
My fileplanet download just died at 40% after 3 hours of downloading.XO
Is there any other way to download the beta?
@Cyber - Beta one from the link Bryan supplied
- brb in 5 hours ~ cleaning fishtank
If the client is just 1GB, I don't mind uploadiing it to some file hosting sites.... but 10gb ~!? I'm too lazy >_>"
dont u mean 'NEVER EVER buy a lifetime sub no matter what game or company'? :P seriously.
its either
1. u get bored of the game in a few month and wasted all that money on the lifetime sub
2. another game caught ur attention so u wont be playing this anymore and u wasted all your money on the lifetime sub.
3.(and most likely) the game gets shut down in 1-5 year and ur still out more expensive then u would with a monthly sub.
Depends on how much they charge you for lifetime sub... It could be cheaper than subbing for 3years+...
Wait, LOTRO isn't high end graphic ~! It's a few yrs old and it's not AoC either. My 5yrs old Dell not State of Art could play it with High settings when the game came out. Not sure about after the patches though......... ALso, notice the High Resolution Texture Pack as well. That might bump up the Specs.
Damnit, I'm late on this.... Anyone have a spare key?
even though it already states this when you're patching, don't use your points code in the beta since they won't be transferred when the f2p vers. comes out.
Guess I'll just have to wait for release then.
I'm liking the Warden Class quite a bit. Has both Ranged and Meele DPS. Not a tank but can take decent dmg, and the way you put together attacks with the gambit system is pretty sweet.
