    Like the forum log in issue. It's put on the priority list deemed important by the developers who know what benefits the most players.  Use your work around and quit saying the same stuff over and over. 
    Focus on what you can do, not what you can't.

    I didn't want to do this"

    Where does the lighthouse that people bought and doesn't work bug sit on the list of deemed whats important? its only been what 3 YEARS

    Zero communication from the devs, third party clients, and lack of new content. Pretty simple as to why people don’t play anymore.

    Becoming pretty clear that the only "important" thing over the last 3 years has been a project where we've only seen a handful of screenshots and a repeating line of "how will you forge your legacy?". No real substance, like how skill gain will work or types of quests, of what to expect from this project. 

    In the meantime the rest of game (and forum) has gone into disrepair and their solution seems like it's to be silent "because Dev team is busy with NL since it is more important". That's a good way to speed up the loss of subscriptions imo. It also puts the team in a position where anything short of a homerun on NL will be considered failure due to the fact that revenue generated from NL still wouldn't outweigh the loss of revenue from canceled subscriptions.

    Why are people leaving?  Its a 25 year old game with 0 updates in the last 6 months.  Antiquated graphics and UI.  Only game I know that actually manages 2 clients (ridiculous).

    New Legacy was joke from inception.
    "How to save UO" - Create a new server because 90% of existing servers are empty.

    They should have re-worked KR client, fixed some of the ugly artwork, beefed up the UI (EC UI) and this game would have more subscribers.    This is only isometric MMO really out there (lost ark doesn't count.  Its a pathetic POE lobby by AGS trash)

    200 may seem like a lot but considering there's 27 shards, that equals roughly 7.5 people per shard attending, which is a very very low number.

    But considering they did it on a work day in the middle of the day, I'd say thats a large number.

    Also that was just one line. There were others.  The most common complaint seems to be long lines.  Pretty  good for a game that has been declared dead by so many for so long.

    Middle of the day for stateside. Primetime for the euro crowd. But i did also forget to factor the mass people that religiously vacation on the week of the 4th. 

    I suppose this could be a classic example of seeing it half full or half empty.

    I hope that they are not making the same mistake that the Overwatch team did. They set out to create a really ambitious game update and content stagnated for years. It really doesn’t have anything to do with money or manpower. Overwatch was one of the largest games in the world and poor management decisions have really killed it. 

    I just made another topic on how the development team could explore the power of AI to greatly improve the amount of content and bug fixing. AI is a great tool when you use it where it is best at.

    That one is easy to understand. Most are sick of the same few people beating the same dead horse.
    If the Dev are more proactive in solving the problems then perhaps there will not be much "dead horse" to beat. Obviously, problems are not resolved, so what do you expect players to do? Accept the fact and eat that horse?

    This is the reason I was never interested in NL. If I need a new game there are better options than a revised old (legacy themed) Ultima Online. As I have said in some posts long ago their solution to the diluted population base is to further dilute the base using NL new server... what about US? abandon shard (ware)? They should revert and focus on making the main game great again.

    And also there has been an issue staying logged in here to post. Most reasonable people are not going to go through hoops just to post a few things. If they are already logged in, it's more likely for them post more.

    We all have to log in every 24 hrs. The phone I am using this week has to log in over and over until it sticks.  If you do not have more than 30 seconds worth of patience, maybe you should not post about a game that has no end and has been going on for 26 years. It is not a game for the impatient.

    They only want active accounts to log in. Therefore you can't just stay logged in. Have to verify it each day.

    I can read the forum any time I want without having to log on.  Don’t mind having to log on if I want to post. This isn’t twitter or Facebook.  Believe what UO requires is commonly required on many of these kinds of sites.
