Development is well along and you'll be hearing more about it in the very near future. Probably sooner than you think. For those who have been wanting to see what we're doing in Fornost you'll get your chance in Update 7.
Also, there is no Update 6.2 planned. Update 7 is the next update.

You have successfully canceled your The Lord of the Rings Online™ subscription. We are sad to see you go, but you may resume it at any time. We hope to see you back soon!
What's actually sad is that any company with a clue (blizzard and a few others) often offers deals or rewards to returning players or players that consider or do cancel their subs. Turbines is just like "lol k cya".

Because Turbine also keeps track of how many "WOOT GAME_X is released! CYA TURBINE" players who return 2 months later
No need to beg anyone to come back with a 92% return rate

I do hope many of the, admittedly sometimes rabid and voracious, concerns that have been raised about the state of our beloved Ettenmoors will be addressed with Update 7. I will wait patiently for this "sooner than you think" news, but my patience is running thin in this supposed Golden Age of Greater Communication from our blue named Oracles.
I admire your work Pureblood, if tidings are not to my satisfaction I may have my goblin scribe Maude contact you to enlist your print publication to aid the cause of the Shake a Stick Foundation in campaigning for a better 'Moors.

The Mayans predicted this event would happen in 2012 and trigger the apocalypse.
It has happened. Nice knowing all of you.

I'm not planning on wasting any effort on GW2 but I do know I'll likely regret not leaving when Update7 has a fresh commendation grind.
Devs, use Update 7 to REMOVE the comm grind. And give back some incentives to actually PvMP and rank.

I left after the rip-off that was Isengard, and I haven't been back since. I will be playing GW2, though.
In short, over the last six months, I would rather play no MMO at all than play LOTRO.

Update 7, just as sad as all the other updates. Why, after all these years, are we still under the belief the turbine cares one lick about pvp or the people that play in it? Oh well who care, a better company and dev team is releasing a far superior game in the near future. Leave the lowest common denominator to do their so called "pvp" here in this joke of a game.

So, instead of, you know, buffing creeps, they change a NPC's skin!
I'm starting to think even the majority of the freeps who PvP will come to GW2.
Kind of right..I checked GW2 website today (due to extra grind and imbalance added with U7, 2 things of which we already have more than enough) and i really like the concept of the elemental mage

They are fun and you get to rotate through 4 elements and you get differing skills with each.

I've seen video's (and faced) elementalists who destroy people 1v1. I saw a video of a Staff elementalist who was properly using all the attunments. He used air for direct damage, used Fire for AoE, water for healing. One of the things I loved is that he used a bubble that reflects projectiles. A engineer tried to use immibolise on the Ele, but instead he immobilised himself.

Yeah I believe I watched the same video and that guy did a great job of talking through his reasonings and admiting when he could have done things better. Straight up, I need to get on that level...I was not after this first weekend ;-) Heard a lot of talk about Mud Ele's who like to go hard into Water and Earth for survivability.

its like that garage project that you never can find time to finish, so you sell it to the W&B pawn shop so they can continue not being able to finish it.

new episode of pawn stars anyone?
Turbine: I'm willing to sell it for 100.
WB: Nah, I'll go 5.
Turbine: 50?
WB: 5.
Turbine: 25 and we'll talk to the player base?
WB: This thing is 5 years old, I'd buy an Atari for 10 and that's WAY older. Five is a lot more than it's worth.
TBH, that change list looks good. It's merely missing all the meaningful changes. These are the small fixes nobody has the energy to complain about while we've got bigger problems. Just a couple days ago I lolled at the common damage of "Poison Spray", and now it's being changed. Good.
