UO Team gating client features?

It really sucks the UO Team are allowing developers to gate features behind additional products. Please update the real classic client to be comparable to other sanctioned clients and stop feeding us trash.

    The CC is going to get a playfield enlargement and a framerate buff at some point... eventually... supposedly... but it's never going to attain feature parity with CUO. That's literally impossible for a team with like two programmers, working on a spaghetti code client from the nineties.

    Nor is "I don't want to click the Discord button on CUO for some reason" ever going to be a serious issue, no matter how many threads you make or how far backwards you bend over to make it sound nefarious. Oooh "gated features." lol

    Didn't the CUO team do their work for free? The actual UO programmers get paid and they do not have the ability to build something comparable to a free product thrown together by a few people? So the UO Team authorize gated features?

    Speaking as a long time player, my thoughts are thus:
    There is a perfectly good client that I use daily, with no need of 3rd party clients, it's called EC
    In order to obey your instruction to update CC to your requirements they would need to suspend all other development, a move the vast majority of the player base would not be tolerant of.

    If the EC graphics were as good as CC that would be a viable option. Sure would be cool, if the UO Team didn't gate features behind specific graphical settings or outside product logins. Why am I a monster for asking for equality among clients lol.
  • "Developers drop what you're doing because for poorly-defined reasons I refuse to click the Discord button on CUO" isn't actually some noble quest, no matter how you try to dress it up. Discord doesn't cost anything.

    Gating features is lame as hell.

    You keep saying this like you think it's a really great rhetorical point that other people will care about. How long are you going to keep repeating it before you realize that literally no one else gives a shit? I've already seen your posting brought up on the CUO Discord server, no one there cares either.

    An unpopular opinion is still a valid opinion. Sorry I don't take trash and treat it like gold.

    But it doesn't need multiple threads.
