LOTRO

[Heenan]

Yeah, it takes awhile to get everything rolling. My guardian/minstrel just hit 16th level. Everything is great now, and I have all of my keys where I want them.

You really can't use WoW to compare. If you ever played Asheron's Call 2 (I dual-boxed that as well), it is very similar.

I am having a blast so far. The "chapter"-style quests are great. And they do a good job at throwing you into solo instances every once in awhile (people in your group can go along with you, as long as it's not a solo class quest).

It definitely takes a better system than WoW. I have to upgrade my 2nd box now, whereas it played fine with a secondary healer in WoW. It's just too chuggy for my liking (and I don't like turning the graphics down to super-very-low where everything looks like blobs).

This game in incredible, but I warn anyone trying it. If you do not get past the tutorial section and go to at least lvl 10-15 you are doing yourself a great dis service. You will truly be missing out on a great game.

I keep chugging away at it, giving it a couple hours of my day. What's really bothering me now is something very silly - night time.

It's just way too dark, even with changing gamma settings, my first experience of the shire I feel is completely ruined. It's a quality game overall though, I suppose I'm just being nit picky

If night time bugs you then dont play EQ2. lol

I've tried out EQ2 before - twice. Actually if I recall correctly, EQ1 was probably the worst, my first ever mmorpg experience was making an erudite and being able to see absolutely nothing. Luckily you were able to get enhanced vision in that game.

[Heenan]

I have to agree with you there. There are times when I just afk/go eat dinner or something and wait for it to be daytime again. Then there are places like the Old Forest that darken upon entering. But I've found cranking up gamma a few notches to help a little bit.

any update on dual boxing on lotro?

If you wanna test it yourself I got 3 spare 3-day keys.

So far I have had little to no success using AutoHotKey to run two on the same machine, LOTR seems not to accept ControlSends which are what one needs for dragging a healer along.

[yvette]

you got lotro running two times on one machine ?

how you did that ?
