I went ahead and installed and signed up on the 10-day trial. I tried to get on Brandywine and was able to connect all of once before having to restart because I reset my graphics to high-res. From then on, I couldn't connect to Brandwine. Is the server just queued to hell and back?

They may be doing something with the authentication servers - I couldnt get in this morning. |
No Nerf, but I put a link to this very thread and I said that you all can guarantee for my purity. I even mentioned your case, and see if they can take a look at your lawn from a Michigan perspective.

Yes, to be short. There have been cues for the past couple of days, and for some, a (Error 5000) or some such number. Its OK, just try again, you will get on, yes they are aware, and no its not typical. Me thinks its this symptom of trial, the Xfire marketing, and a huge amount of word of mouth currently surrounding the game, and everyone looking for " Populated" servers, Brandywhine being the highest population. |

I ordered the expansion from Best Buy and it has been backordered for about 3 weeks now. I'd say that the game is seeing a resurgence.

I had the cue problem on the weekend, never seen it before. Brandywine is definitely more populated then say Silverlode server. Amazing difference.

It's a solid, well polished product, that delivers just as much content as WoW does without the requirements for large groups and the crazy gear grind, so it appeals to people who are looking for something other than WoW. I might pick this up again when I scratch the WoW itch I've been feeling.

I play on Silverlode (51 Burg) and it has been quiet.
Just getting into Moria area now. For any headed that way, do all of the Moria-gate "Expedition" quests before finishing Vol II Book 1 epic. It's worth it. If you like Balrogs. Which I do.

What level do you have to be before the Moria stuff becomes accessible?

50, I think. (I was already 50 when Moria was released, so I can't be sure.) |

Depends. The two classes and crafting guilds are available from the start, of course. Moria itself can be accessed at 45 or so, but it'll probably be too hard well inside.
My suggestion would be to hit 45, go do Volume 2 Book 1 to get the legendary, then go back and grind the last four or five levels in Forochel and Angmar. That way your legendary weapon will be on its way once you return to Moria.

  Since I'm rooted, I may as well spam screenies. Anyways, don't skip the expedition quests to do Volume II Book 1. |
