Bagpipe Abc Files Lotro Traits

Kensington Pocket Mouse Drivers. Why is there a full section in the character panel for hobbies, and yet, over the 5 years since fishing was introduced, it remains the only hobby in this section? 5 years seems like plenty of time for coming up with some more of the increasingly neglected little charms this game had that kept me interested.

So I had an idea regarding this 4 years ago, and I fully expect it to be ignored again, but I'm going to give it another try. We have a music system. Is music playing not a hobby?

Converting ABC files. Lotro Abc Files Vault. Bagpipe Abc Files Lotro. Playing ABC files in LOTRO: LOTRO reads ABC files from The Lord of the Rings Online. Alcohol Impaired Driving. Creeps (Monster players) have quests, titles, and deeds similar to regular characters. Creeps fight against Freeps in the. I was sent off to The Fat Lute, a site devoted to the ABC music system in LOTRO, where there are thousands of songs that have been transcribed into the ABC file format. Go take a look. While I was checking out the site, Garfinkel played the threatened promised Scotland the Brave on his bagpipes. Hae ye enough yet laddie.

Add music to the hobbies list. Make it so you can level it.

Maybe as you level your music playing ability, you gain the ability to purchase passive skills to use more instrument types? You gain the ability to walk (not run) while playing your instrument? Maybe Minstrels would be exempt from SOME of this, but not all of it. I feel that in order for a Minstrel to use all the various instruments, he/she should probably have been trained to use them rather than suddenly know how to play them upon purchase. Gain musical experience by completing musical deeds and playing notes.

Complete a deed for using a 5 note chord, playing a certain number of notes, using your first ABC file to play a song, etc. Add a composing feature in-game, for creating your own sheet music with a music writing interface. Sheet music could/would be traded in-game and the item would be used to create the ABC files on their computer so they can play a song (rather than real life exchange of ABC files, this could add another dynamic to the economy). Forget learning to play new instruments from the Minstrel trainer, make the Bard NPC, who recently had his job workload cut by a great deal, the new music hobby instructor/quest-giver. Maybe if you play a certain combination of notes, notes that are similar to the songs sung by the Ainur or something, you could gain a small resistance buff that lasts for a few minutes, just for fun. Anyone should be able to sing of the glory of Helm Hammerhand and the Dwarves of Erebor.

How To Install Disc Brake Anti Rattle Clips For Tow. Why can we not enter music mode without an instrument, and sing by default? Imagine if we set up a choir in Middle-earth. Add fiddles/violas/violins to the game.

I feel awkward not having one while dancing at the Party Tree - it seems the perfect instrument for a Hobbit dance. There are some great ideas that can help to give this game more depth again. Every time I log in lately, the game doesn't hold my attention anymore. It's feeling repetitive, and all the content being added doesn't really feel different to me. What if I don't want to do group combat quests, and I instead want to sing a barbershop quartet in the auction hall?

With every expansion and update seeming to only focus on the things that all other MMOs focus on, I feel we're becoming stale due to neglecting some of the things that made our MMO more rich in depth and lore. The main core things that I would want you to take away from my ideas are thus: -Integrate the music system as a hobby so fishing isn't awkwardly alone anymore. -Add sheet music items to the game that, upon use, can copy ABC files to the user's computer based on the composition of the item. -Add two new instrument types: the fiddle and the voice. When no instrument is equipped, the player will sing with his/her voice instead.

-Make it possible to walk while playing instruments. This would actually give players a reason to USE the walk capability.

And imagine the marching bands and wandering Minstrels! A march through the Ettenmoors with a drummer boy at the rear would be awesome to see.

-Make it possible to gain buffs and complete deeds from playing special challenging sheet music items found throughout Middle-earth. With non-player-made sheet music, item use will only display the sheet music, and will not award you the ABC file until you have successfully played it once manually and earned the deed. Playing the ABC file without having earned the deed would not give the player the buff (to discourage cheating). Those are some of the things I would love to see added to this game someday. I love music, hence my decision to stick with the Minstrel class. But being that music was such a big part of Middle-earth lore, I feel that music shouldn't be LIMITED to this class, only SPECIALIZED by this class.

The world of Arda was created with music, and thus, I believe music should not be cast aside in favor of combat. It should be celebrated and it should be updated with something more substantial than the addition of an awful sounding Pibgorn.

I'm hoping that at the very least this post will provoke some ideas in our dev minds. This system would add an increased feeling of depth and background to the world.

Also, one other quick thing. Please, for the love of Eru, add more variety to the battle cries.

Particularly the male Hobbit battle cry, which alternates between the same two sounds. It gets pretty old after playing in war-speech.

Thanks for reading! I'm intrigued to see some ideas bounce around from this! Last edited by Blueorb; Dec 25 2013 at 03:18 AM. You gain the ability to walk (not run) while playing your instrument? I would sell my soul for.

Vocals would be great too but they have to actually hire additionnal professional voice-actors for this task which is unlikely. If you are actually suggesting what i understand at the second reading, that would be a huge mess people trolling around doing all kinds of noises:/ But still, i love these ideas This game just has so many potentials it's unbelievable but it all needs some work. Maybe we will see Turbine actually working on the little things that makes huge difference and keeps players attached to the game since we won't have any 'expansions' in 2014. I support this idea.

Some things may be impossible to make, or just hard, but i do not understand programming. Oh I fully understand that some of these things I have mentioned would not be practical for an MMO, and some of these things may be impossible to pull off with our current game engine.

My main goal in this post was to get some dev creative juices flowing and to bring some more attention to the hobby/music systems. Also the walking while playing thing. I brought that up 5 years ago. If anything were implemented from any of this, I'd want it to be that.

If the old mount system were using a channeling induction and allowed movement, then surely it would be possible to do the same thing with music, as music is also using a channeling induction. Why is there a full section in the character panel for hobbies, and yet, over the 5 years since fishing was introduced, it remains the only hobby in this section? 5 years seems like plenty of time for coming up with some more of the increasingly neglected little charms this game had that kept me interested. So I had an idea regarding this 4 years ago, and I fully expect it to be ignored again, but I'm going to give it another try. We have a music system. Is music playing not a hobby?

I feel that in order for a Minstrel to use all the various instruments, he/she should probably have been trained to use them rather than suddenly know how to play them upon purchase. I feel that this can cause not only some controversy, but some problems as well, especially since Minstrels need to use their instruments in order to attack, defend, and survive.

Gain musical experience by completing musical deeds and playing notes. Complete a deed for using a 5 note chord, playing a certain number of notes, using your first ABC file to play a song, etc. Add a composing feature in-game, for creating your own sheet music with a music writing interface. Sheet music could/would be traded in-game and the item would be used to create the ABC files on their computer so they can play a song (rather than real life exchange of ABC files, this could add another dynamic to the economy). Again, hard to do since some people don't want ABC files cluttering up their computer, just like you don't like downloading plugins.

I think you hit the head on the nail with this post.

I am a guy who likes the little details more than the broad and overall scope of things. I guess I'm a perfectionist, but I think that this is a huge concern that most players have, and I would agree with you on this point wholeheartedly.

I think everyone is a bit upset with that, and if Turbine could take a little time off on making their expansion packs and instead work on little details and stuff people would like to see, they will be able to not only bring in a lot more players (which will provide some money for them) but also satisfy their current player-base. Make it possible to walk while playing instruments. This would actually give players a reason to USE the walk capability. And imagine the marching bands and wandering Minstrels!

A march through the Ettenmoors with a drummer boy at the rear would be awesome to see. It can easily be done, and is also the most plausible out of this entire post, since it has been done with the new update/patch, where for example now hunters can move while charging up the ability for 'Barbed Arrow' or 'Swift Bow', so this seems like it can be done, and also be met with popularity. The only thing I see stopping this is that people move/jump when they want to stop playing, but this can easily be switched to where you can walk, but when you jump you stop playing. Thanks for reading! I'm intrigued to see some ideas bounce around from this!

No, thank you. It's a thought-intriguing post. I would like to see some more implementation of little details that can enhance the playing experience for all, especially things that don't cause too many problems.

The only issue I see with this post is the fact that there is no incentive for Turbine to implement this, as there is no way for them to make money off of this idea. If you can somehow connect it to that, then Turbine might take a little more look at it, since the devs are your main audience. Like unip0pcorn said, this game has so much potential, and if Turbine can take advantage of that, there will be no other MMORPG that can rival this.
