This is a serious post with hopes of either a EA Rep will see this or I will sent this to a EA rep , so please be serious and explain why or why you wouldnt come back....Please I ask you if you were a past player to pass this along.

My general idea for reasons players dont like UO is...

 

1.Graphics ( outdated)

2.To items based

3. lack of classic shard ( time frame  pre Age of Shadows)

 

 

Any thoughts??

"A witty saying proves nothing."

 Best MMO I ever played back in 1997. A lot of water has gone under the bridge since then but I loved my time in UO and played it for three years. I can say that I still think of it fondly.

 

That said the graphics even the 3d option (which was horrible by the way) would need a total overhaul.

Actually, to be honest... I think the would just need to relaunch the game ala EQ with a UO 2 and dump a lot of the nonsense that ruined the game.

Yea i have to agree , UO3d was bad , and a complet overhaul of UO would be great. I must also admit UO Kingdome Reborn was unplayable when it was beta'd , but has come a long way and is far superior to UO3d ( even better using to the classic view)..

 

Thank you for response..

The problem with the Classic shard is what time period would be best?

Some say pre publish 16 , pre AOS , ect....

I've been going through MMOs like crazy trying to find one that was like UO pre-trammel, pre-itemization (stat loss i'm on the fence about), but it would be pre-pub 16 for me.

It would need to be pre-Trammel and not just pre Age of Shadows.

pre-trammel, pre stats loss.

Im not sure exactly what patch... but I want the ones before they started screwing with all the murder stuff.

Right around T2A and thats it

WAY prior to AOS

I don't like UO anymore (in official servers) because a) in one week I was unable to kill a single person, b) the pvpers I saw were always the same (not more than 20 different people).

Many reasons for the above. Items that make you godly, and to get them you need 100+ bucks (or farm god knows for how long). Bots, instutionalized ebaying, too reliant on macroes. Very unbalanced builds which later got nerfed into oblivion getting other builds overpowered. Too little of a playerbase, etcetc.

On the other hand, I'm sure lots of people still play it for the housing, the world (best virtual world ever), and the freedom of action you get there.

But what really kills the game for me is the astounding unbalance created by the items.
