I agree, I don't think that any MMORPG can last for very long without some sort of direct Player vs Player conflict. Why else would you even play online? The idea that people just want to show up and communicate doesn't hold water. Games like The Si…
You make good points Obraik and Jackdog. I suppose I should try it out for myself. I probably will seeing how there's a free trial. However; the fact that the game now allows Less customization of skills and characters is very unappealing to me. I a…
People didn't leave UO for Everquest because they didn't like PvP, they left because Everquest had much better graphics, more variety of play, and was new and fun. Although I'll admit that the PvP in UO was mishandled from the beginning, where 14 ye…
Uh Oh, you did it now, here comes the emperor lightning; "no, no, No, NO, YOU will pay!" Drimli, the last new movie, episode 3, is just slightly short of pure brilliance. The only reason people arn't roaming the streets, dressed as Anakin and the Em…
Lol, yes, and they've been there for about 4 years now. They're called 12 to 15 year olds. They started showing up in Ultima Online in mass around 2003, with the release of the shiney and overpowered new items in Age Of Shadows. Unfortunately, the g…
I know how you feel. But I played Ultima Online for 4 years and like 30,000 hours. I spent days, weeks, months playing in a hardcore fashion. If i started playing, I had to play all day, like 12 hours, lol. It was in my opinion the greatest game eve…
I wonder how many hundred's of thousands of accounts SWG lost thanks to their careless nerf? It just goes to show that Massively multiplayer games should not be run by clumsy, greedy corporations with no knowledge of gamers or the games they're payi…
I agree with the original poster. Players WANT PvP, even if some of them don't know it. Some players may get killed repeatedly in a PvP environment and rage and cry, and say to themselves, "whaaaa, I was killed again! Now I have to go through collec…
Yes, I'm hoping that dungeons and dragons online has a skill building system similar to that in UO, but the old UO, where it took a month to max out a characters skills, or two months. Not the UO with EasyUO and 8x8 where you can max out a character…
If you hadn't said you wanted good graphics i might have suggested Ultima Online. But then again the PvP is totally in the crapper now also. But hey they threw elves in! And there's thousands of items for customization. Just be ready to drop lots of…
It's The Sims Online. Don't waste your time on the 2 week free trial. There's no excitement in the game, it's basically a never ending barbi simulation. Ever hear of danger in your MMORPG's EA? They're even making UO simmy now and trying to cover it…
I remember when I first bought Ultima Online The second age, the first expansion back in 1999. I dialed up my internet connection with my 32.3 kbps modem and logged in. When i first saw other humanoids running around in britian I thought, "whoaaah! …
Unfortunately, LlammaLord shows the bias of most of the playerbase in UO. I admit, i've farmed a great deal of items over the years, but item farming trammies just don't know about Fel. UO PvP is actually not dead, it's just dying. Even 6 months ago…
