i've watched some of the sc2 guys occasionally, just to see what 7.25 million mouse clicks per second actually looks like.

Just decided to pick back up on LOTRO (free). Haven't played since I went for the free trial a year and a half ago (around there). Anyone else play?
Are there any activity stats on the game?

I played when it first came out for a few months and got to 40ish on a Minstrel. It is a fun game, but I didn't love it.

Probably don't want our third world(being generous here) ISPs eating all the bandwidth and making it lag like ****.
I know I wouldn't be inviting us, would need to double the servers just to deal with it and you don't want bad publicity in a Beta test.

iirc, no one wants to deal with your rating system, either.

Yeah but I'd doubt that is a major issue for a game like TOR which I can't see offering the kinds of things that our archaic system has issues with.
For those wondering what njx is talking about, we don't have an R18+ rating for Video Games in Australia, so essentially any game that should be 18+ gets banned and has to be reworked to be sold in Australia. It is quite simply a ridiculous system and just plain stupid that it still hasn't been fixed. Games like Fallout 3 and GTA are notable games that have fallen in this category.

Anyone play League of Legends? A few friends of mine convinced me to play, and man I forgot how addicting these games are. I swore no DOTA2, but this is just as good.

i feel like it may impact betas differently? i can't honestly remember what has to be reviewed... if it's only important for actual sales, or if any of this content would need to be 'approved'. *shrug* it sucks, and i'm shocked your government hasn't addressed that yet, it seems highly ridiculous.

I do. I love it. Playing only free right now, but they just took Miss Fortune off the free champions list. I was tearing it up with Miss Fortune and I suck with everyone else.

I've gone a through phases with LoL trying to relive the old Dota days but I just get bored after like five or so games. I'll probably check out Dota 2 though when it comes out.

I play. It's really fun when everyone on the team goes a troll build and you end up dominating.

Essentially there is one idiotic politician whose vote collapses it every time it comes up, the guy is probably the most hated person amongst gamers in Australia but yeah, it is just plain ridiculous, the problem is that politicians are all 50+ and don't understand the size of the gaming industry.
Not sure the impact it has on a Beta, I just know that before anything can be made available it has to be rated and I dare say there is a survey and if you have any particular elements then they have to get investigated(ie sex, violence, drugs or similar).

Australia is on the verge of a change to this system so I'd expect the introduction of R18+ within a few years. It was extremely close to happening several months ago but I think one state absolved or something came up.

It will be SA as that is where the problem comes from and it has been going on for about 8 years that I know of with the general opinion being the same as yours. I don't hold out a lot of hope in our government actually doing anything about it. Though if someone told them it would be a good way to steal a few votes they would probably do it...
