The sky is falling!

[UKNightWatch]

Hi all,

Was just reading the Update 4: ROI notes and saw this.

'Some players were reporting that the sky was rapidly accelerating towards to the ground. We have investigated and are happy to report that the sky is, in fact, exactly where it should be.'

Laugh? I nearly paid to subscribe! (Lifer BTW.)

The quote looks like a cheeky little, light hearted nod to these forums.

At least someone has a sense of humour!

Sometimes Turbine makes parts of patch notes and bug reports amusing.

I find it funny that everyone is freaking out for no reason. Its a system update AND expansion update. It's gonna take some time. Everyone is anxious just so they could be the first to 75......./smh

I particularly find it funny where people have complained because they didn't know this was happening today and feel they should have been warned (!!!!!!!).

But OT, yes, when they have the time to do so, they can put some pretty funny things in the official posts.

They have been unplugged and are bored.

Before logging into any MMO forums on patch day, it's worth keeping your tinfoil hat handy.

There are a few of them in this set of notes. There's usually at least one in every set of release notes. Sometimes we take a real note and rewrite it a little to be a bit more....dramatic. Like the typo comment in the ROI release notes.

I love it. I get a laugh each time update notes are published. Keep it up!

Oh! No! You went and did it now Sapience!

I only skimmed the notes looking for points of 'main' interest.

Now I HAVE to go through the whole page looking carefully to find the other funnies!

At least I now have something to do related to the game until I can get the DL!! LOL

I'm still slowly going through the patch notes, but so far, this one is my favorite...

As champions can now only block with their faces, the deed for “At the Ready” has been altered to no longer require block; the skill will, instead, use Ebbing and Rising Ire to advance and will have a greatly reduced requirement.

((I added the emphasis))

Tin foil hat is on. Bring it on!!!

If the sky is falling, does it mean the world is ending. Guess I better switch to the darkside beforehand. Sauron here I come.

The sky is not falling.

But it will.

Soon........

Meanwhile, enjoy this video from last week, where Sons of Numenor blew-up the sky in Rivendell.

The problem that I'm having is that I have a widget that checks status and it say that all but one server is running fine (Green). Is it wrong if so that means something is wrong with my client.

As we've mentioned elsewhere the problem is those widgets and sites do not accurately reflect the status of our servers. So the information you are seeing is wrong. The game is not up and is not available.
