Nice interview... Please can someone say what's wrong. i was lucky and i acquire one of the two thousands lotro free keys.

iirc you take a payment option, but instead of paying you enter a code.
Anyhoo. A big annoyance with 10 level games like LotRO is the crafting mats being tied to the level of the area to suit. Steefel mentions tweaking this, but that wont help much.
A much more user friendly way would be to give crafters the option to turn high lvl mats into lower lvl ones thus saving the player effort visiting 'grey' areas just to pick up some light leather f'r instance, simply convert the rough leather into light leather. Bobs yer uncle.

Fithelion I am in the same position. Even if you complete the transaction you don't actually pay. You pay nothing and get 30 days, but still need to submit your single payment, which you can either cancel after 30 days or pay to keep playing.

What I don't understand is that even when I completed this I wasn't given an option to download anything. I haven't found installation easy or stress free at all. I sat for 45 minutes and didn't know where to go.

Also, we are being given the full game here, but surely everyone gets the full game when they do the trial?

So all we are getting is 30 days free instead of the usual 14?

I know this is wrong... I'm just hoping to frustrate someone enough that they spell the answer out to me! :)

Have a read of this... http://community.codemasters.com/forum/s...
It tells you what you need to do and has some links to a list of all the places you can download the client and the patches.

Similar situation here - I had LOTRO on my COG account from played it a couple of years ago briefly. Wanting to play again using my EG giveaway key and it accepted the key but didnt activate a subscription. What a waste :(

The correct steps are...

1. Download the Full Client in Codemasters
2. Update the Full Client to Last Version
3. Activate a Free Trial of 14 days
Two weeks later..
4. Activate the Code of Eurogamer in your account and complete the payment method

As result: 45 days of play ;)

it is key for MOM or only for SAO?
And why in USA servers free trial for MOM is only 10 days ,but in europe 14 days?

I got some really nice "fluff" items from the token trade-in - a Circlet of Men, a couple of Hauberks/Dresses and some PIES.

Nice.
