  • Where to begin ... It seems that a few people think, going back to UO is a option these days. I hate to disappoint them, but UO is a far cry from what it used to be. UO these days, has been toned down, because of children crying how the big bad "r…
  • Some interesting material to read. It seems that some people are under the impression that anybody that loved pre-trammel is or was a PK'er. I think that those people need to revisit there opinion. The amount off PK'er was not that great so that a…
  • Here are my impressions for somebody who has been looking at DF from a year or 7 ago. I want a freaking game that can take Ultima Online's shoes. That expands on the gameplay. That brings the graphics to the year 200x ( fill in the current year, bec…
  • Well, that rule is out of date. Its a known fact that OSI does not sue people for running a free shard, nor because they advertise them on other forums. Also, most server protocols are reversed engineered, thus following under other laws, and do no…
  • Originally posted by Stevis Real time fighting in a fantasy mmorpg heel ya bout time I say. Noi levels skill increases with use sounds like and upgraded version of UO. Im hyped and am gonna give it a shot. Don't get to hyped... I've been hyped a…
  • Originally posted by Brainy Originally posted by sempiternal There's little choice when there are two sets of rules to play the same game, almost everyone intelligently chooses to take advantage of the easier set. Seems obvious to me.  …
  • Originally posted by kpatterson12 I don't think Trammel made the game boring. I think lack of events made it boring Lack of events? The game itself was one big event. You can't say that Trammel dident make the game boring? You actually used to …
  • The house looting problem was never as bad as some care to whine about it. People that stored valuables in there house deserved to be robbed. It didn't take long for the lockdowns to prevent people from stealing ( like placing a row of locked down t…
  • My 2 cents on this topics. First, some people here did not play Ultima Online during those days. The fact that there main argument is "But the graphics got old" clearly shows that they are part of the new generation of gamers, who only see graphics…
  • Originally posted by ianubisi Originally posted by period UO had a playerbase of i think 250k? Back when there was no trammel BS or no insurance or neon oooo colored items.Incorrect . Their numbers quadrupled to about 250K subscribers when …
  • Lets first see, and then talk. "production for over three and a half years, with a beta fast approaching" I've seen that quote for years now, how a beta was coming, and how it was going alone so well. It looks more like a slightly more alive Duke …
  • To answer a few things: First off, i rarely see a Korean or Asian MMORPG, where people can customize there armor. Most of the time, you gain, or buy a armor as one set. No mixing helmets, chest armor, leg armor etc. Now, i do understand that Asian …
  • Olla, advise taken... I know there reputation all to well. Still like to know how the hell they got my email? I never subscribed for any "Mourning" beta's. Hmmm, unless they mailed everybody on the forum ( think i registered there one time to read …
  • Originally posted by paradyme lol I remember not even a year ago ppl were preaching this game like it was the end all of all MMORPG's and was gonna drive WoW into the dirt with with features like parachutes and large masses of empty land.  I thi…
  • Ps: some may know this, other may not. There has been a 3d client for UO in development for some years. Ultima Iris 3d client. ultimairis.sourceforge.net There now seems to be a fork in the project, one of the main developers seems to have forked …
  • Originally posted by Kasmar Originally posted by Leesus Originally posted by Kasmar It wasn't.  It stunk.  It is what killed UO. I'm assuming you never played old school UO, or you were just horrible at PvP. Ha ha Leesus..  I was Counselor…
  • While i love free shards ( well used to ), they in general have one major problem: -> Staying online. When a company makes money from a mmorpg, the servers will stay online for years, but in the past, i had the bad luck of servers who died or h…
  • Originally posted by hercules LoL  you said UO retained tons of "old school" players and even went on to say how many got 4 year rewards(that brings the timeline way after trammel) and now you say it lots of old school players left. Your sayin…
  • Originally posted by Gnomesmusher I'm not sure why so many of you claim that UO takes more player skill in PVP than any other MMO out there but maybe because so many of  you played the obviously overpowered Tank Mages back then. You literally were a…
  • Originally posted by SpiritofGame ROFL! So true. "Oh wow, I can one-hit kill ya and loot all yer stuff!" This game will be unworkable because of the following Dev quote: "Darkfall is a combat oriented game, and there will never be a shortage of rec…
