  • JohnKnighthawke said:  it questioned focusing on it instead of the shards that represent what MMOs are supposed to be. I'm long past opposing the existence of NL. I lost that debate before it began. I'm just pointing out when something from it…
  • JohnKnighthawke said:  Given that the ongoing nature of the story is part of the reason why MMOs exist, it seems extremely odd to me to disfavor that in place of something that's designed to be ephemeral. It's not that odd to have a "seas…
  • What are your plans for season 2?  Timeline?
  • Skett said:not everyone has the time or has any interest in NL but pays full price only to get half the games content.... You're not missing half the game's content since it's just another aspect of gameplay that was never meant for a productio…
  • I won't be surprised if some things do come over to the production shards, but only after the Shattering (which should happen in September/October). Unless they run with the "if you want this stuff, do it on NL and transfer it over when the season i…
  • keven2002 said: Yea - I think we can all agree that more events/items/etc is a good thing Yeah, with the new NL update, which is a lot of content, if that's the route they go - more big stuff sooner and not getting tied down with holiday…

  • KroDuK said: Really thought you knew better  So you knew Cotten by name only.. not aware of his work. 99% of non affiliates RMT'ers are long gone. I'm the one who posted the article that Draconi/Cotten wrote about his group burning down the…
  • Community Manager said: Grimbeard said: Why do some email providers not work is this something the team can address  I would recommend not using hotmail, msn or live e-mails as those tend to have issues for some reason.  I run a…
  • Community Manager said: Blocking a player is actionable. I wouldn't recommend it. That being said, GMs will investigate the calls they receive, but they aren't going to relay what or if an action was taken on another player. Yeah, the G…
  • NuSair said: The GMs never responded to my inquiry. Now, I just have to decide if I want to risk it.  Yeah, not sure what to say. We've seen some people clearly scripting, but we are able to go elsewhere for the time being.  Years back …
  • NuSair said: I highly doubt that 80% of the player base is running scripts. And I would be surprised if they had that many paid accounts. With Endless Journey there isn't a need (and no, the one IP address thing isn't an issue).  I came back i…
  • NuSair said: Grimbeard said: Block them you in get banned  Got to love it, makes so much sense- block in a scripter breaking the ToS and YOU are the one that gets banned.  Grimbeard, NuSair, I didn't say box them in - if somebody w…
  • Can you block the bots with barrels or chests or something?  A human player would have no problem with that but we used to throw up obstacles when we suspected such accounts and  when it was clear there wasn’t a human around we’d page the GMs.   I’m…
  • Grimbeard said: Lokea said: if 80% were fisherman in real life you might be on to something.   Ah but that's even better! We'd all benefit from fishing a lot more in real life! But I'll just say that the Japanese players would no…

  • Grimbeard said: 80% of players have a fisher therefore 80% of the content should be fishing related  if 80% were fisherman in real life you might be on to something.

  • keven2002 said: I think you are taking my numbers too literal... 51% begins to represent the majority but would be much higher than 51% in some cases. What if we are talking a 75/25 split or 80/20? At the end of the day businesses are catering…

  • keven2002 said: Agreed - everything should be available on TC that are already on Prod; especially in store items or vet rewards because people might have no idea about an item (if they want to get that item) and they would have no way to tes…
  • Apologies if I missed it, but when will we know what happens to the NL server?  If my kids and I are about to really dive into NL as our full-time shard for a bit, I would hate to do it and then login to see a message about it going away shortly.  I…

  • keven2002 said: If it makes you sleep better at night; instead of calling it "Easter" then let's call it the "Spring Celebration". At the end of the day most people just want events/stuff throughout the year. It was always incredibly silly to…

  • KroDuK said: The EA president that cancel those 3 MMO (wing's commander, UO2 and Harry Potter) Still blows my mind that EA canceled a Harry Potter MMO in the early 2000s when the movies were literally coming out every year for several year…
  • @Arroth_Thaiel that is amazing!

  • I would love to get away from any events or holidays that have nothing to do with Ultima (not counting the anniversary) and maybe see the Ultima equivalent of the Darkmoon Faire (WOW) - but more than a simple Solstice Festival or Spring Festival tha…

  • KroDuK said: Logicly, I totally agree with you, but right now.. for the West we have like 1-ATL, 2-EU then 3-Pac (something along those line) as top 3 shards.. most of the remaining are ghost town; if u don't count the bots and multi client. …
  • KroDuK said: We will need to get on vocal one day to talk about UO.. so much stuff I would say.. and I could come out as rude, in text. I'd probably agree with you more than you think. While it's easy to re-ignite the client wars, at least …
  • KroDuK said: Lokea said: I think you mean Discord validation for ClassicUO, and I have no problem with that (I would with FB, I got rid of my account, it's as much of a cesspool of misinformation as twitter is). They use Discord to distribut…
  • KroDuK said: Let's agree a tons of mistake were made and keep being done.. nothing that can't be fixed, imo. Edit: i'm still thinking UO could be in the top 10 MMOrpg.. it doesn't need a huge dev team.. with a vision and the guts.. u could mak…
  • KroDuK said: Well said, but i'm seeing solution here.. Like stop avoiding what i'm saying.. don't you agree this is the perfect timing to rework the Bonnie corporate culture around UO? You seems aware of the problems and even more stuff (like…
  • KroDuK said: The last hope I had for UO was the tim cotten era with SA.. but yeah the more info was coming out the more WTF there was among us (the people i was playing with) To see him quit the sinking boat 1 year later.. he did great stuff for…
  • cansirus said: It sounds somewhat contradictory to say they're striving for a broader field and blocking third-party clients. It's 2025, and the kids who played UO have grown up. They don't have time to waste endless hours; they just want to go…
  • KroDuK said:Mariah answer was made during an eclipse I believe.. she did not see the sun; that war on third party post from the producer in july 2024.. cuz now it's flirting with false advertissement, (more coming soon) considering kyro answer i…
