Creating text blocks in lotro full#

Unfortunately with the plains one, we did considerable scouting trying to find a great area for it that was not too full of other content and the spot we chose was the only one available. We tried to introduce 2 different experiences with 2 neighborhoods, one in the foothills and one in the plains. Scenario: The concept with Kingstead housing was to provide the player the ability to own a piece of Rohan. Q: Can neighborhoods not take up a big chunk of a cool region? So, we have ideas, but we don’t have any plans right now. Scenario: There are a couple of other systems that I would like to introduce if we ever get to the point where we are working on a PvMP housing area, but I won’t talk too much about that for fear of getting people hyped for something that they’ll have to wait forever until it happens. It can go a lot of ways but we had really crazy ideas for that. Q: Why don’t we have monster-player housing neighborhoods?īaccata: Scenario and I talked about Angmar or PvMP housing and what that would mean. It’s tricky because you’re in a housing instance and you’re basically trying to leave an instance to go to another instance and in order to prevent edge-case issues that historically has been prevented, but we’re trying to see what we can do to change that. Scenario: This is something that bugs us a lot too. Q: Will we be able to enter instances from neighbourhoods so it can become more of a hub to hang out? Scenario: Yes! We probably think more about housing stuff than we should…. Can’t say if and when we’ll do that but that’s something we’ve been talking about. Giving the player the ability to own a Bree-land and a Shire house is definitely something we talked about. I would never say ‘never’ about work related to classic housing but the idea of offering new classic housing is not likely to happen.īaccata: Scenario and I talked about the idea of offering a second slot for standard housing. Q: Are there any ideas to ever add more classic housing or is premium housing the way forward?Ĭordovan: It is highly likely that premium housing will be the way forward in terms of work to offer a new housing neighborhood. So, we have ideas, we kind of know where we wanna build next but we’re keeping that for us for now….īaccata: I think we can safely say that it won’t be elf-themed or man-themed. I have like a 15-page document full of ideas. Where are we going next?īaccata: That’s a tough one to answer, isn’t it Scenario?
