We are currently looking into our ability to pay for VIP under the current circumstances, and will evaluate the situation once this issue has been resolved, but until the situation is fixed it is difficult to predict that any VIP or purchase of any other service of the game involving real money is going to be allocated to the current budget for games.Quote:

Really, if you want to play the "How can I hurt SSG" game, is to not only cancel VIP, but just no longer show up at all. But, that might just be too big of an ask...... for a graphic change in the game. :D :D
He also talked about it in his weekly stream. I don't like this change AT ALL, but I am not going to get my panties in a knot about it.Quote:

Thank you. I'm sad that the spring festival rewards I want use the tokens from the new spring instances. Which I can't play without making myself ill because of the changes, but is a limited time event, so I guess since I'm not sure I dare play at all until it's fixed, sounds more and more like I'll miss out. Regular festival stuff seemed okay (though I hadn't tried the shrew stomping with the changes so I don't know if that's affected too), but it's the other rewards that interest me.Quote:

They haven't said a word/done a single meaningful thing about the fact that their servers are in the state that they are despite outcry from the community for years at this point. They don't care about their customers and haven't for a very long time.Quote:

Not a fan. As an LM seeing what skills are firing, or didn't fire. Pet toggles, unvisibleness. Took me a while to notice because I wasn't running an instance. (Festival and all that) But once a friend told me about the Bee instance I just had to try out... Felt extra out of practice, because the normal tells were not there visibly. Shame no LMs were able to foretell this. (well cappy too, cause herald toggles that someone showed in the forums. TY for that!)
Good luck for fixing it or rewinding it, or getting it a tobble.
Anywho back to festiva! :o

Yet your implication that there was no response for a week was clearly false.Quote:

Maybe stop whining on Forums, and just get use to the change literally... I did , and i might be one of the ones who actually love the change, though I've been upset with classes since HD but i got use to it and enjoy it alot more, cool nostalgia gets in the way of stuff, but whining like a 4 year old does nothing.Quote:

Sounds like a bug. Did you report it?Quote:

And I even shared a short vid of my LM skills with the new animation.Quote:

Blade wall has never been an immediate skill, its just a fast melee skill. That said, what you're experiencing would seem to be a bug. I don't get what you're getting when I use immediate skills (clobber or BF) to cut animations. Blade Wall is firing for me as soon as I use it too, while the skill animation is taking place.Quote:

New UI animations released in Update 29 for active abilities in the quickslot bar have been reverted for now. In the future, we intend to make a toggle available for players to select between the older UI animations and our newer UI animations.
https://www.lotro.com/en/content/upd...-release-notes
In case anyone missed it, a patch tomorrow is reverting the animations until they can add a toggle to switch between old and new: Update 29.0.1 Release Notes
This will be reverted after tomorrow's patch, and the new UI option will return in the future as a toggle.
I read the first page, skimmed a couple more. I haven't seen anyone *completely* in favor of the new thing. Just a few "I'll tolerate it" posts.Quote:

Clealy young people developed and continue to make changes without regard to eyesight and other human imperfections. I, myself, have complained everywhere I can think of regarding the tiny print of the Deeds Log and other things that are not adjustable for font size. I mean, YELLOW PRINT ON A BUFF BACKGROUND? Jeez.
I still love Lotro but I wish they would address.
Thank you!Quote:
