Pretty sure that box with the squares is a gameguard issue I have read that making a seperate windows user profile and running the game in there fixes that.
If I won the lottery or something I would seriously fund a remake of UO with very little changed. Except for copywright issues of course. Thats how bad I miss the feeling that UO gave me.
I dled it looked for mobs for about 20 minutes finally found them, realized it was just click to kill killed like 20 gum drops or something. wondered to ymself, why am i wasting my time here? and uninstalled it
Because they are the type of people that want everything nice and fair, no excitement (aka WoW) Originally posted by jackilojohn

The number one thing that kills pvp in games is equipment gained from time sinks. In UO you could just grab a set of gm leather or gm studded leather and you are set to pvp and if you lost that its no problem to you. If you lost your epic on WoW upo…
I dont think you should be too harsh on the reds they are part of what makes the game fun and exciting, if the penalties are too severe noone will take part. I think perhaps a bounty system would be an ideal solution. UO had this but it never worked…

the "hardcore" players messed up the genre themselves. whats the point of trying to kill some-one when you yourself have no reason to. you "hardcore" players even go so far as to play the most unbalanced setup(ev…

WoW is just the latest EQ formula, that they got everything just right for those people in love with the EQ …
PVP without looting is just fighting mobs that are smarter. If you didnt spend 6 months getting your gear ala WoW losing it to a pk doesnt really matter. It works as long as you dont have bs timesink uber gear in the game.
Talk about a lousy community. People complain about little kids on WoW, GTA is like a magnet to 13 year olds. No matter how good they made this game the community would be horrible.
The-Raven, I like eastern styled equipment ala Lineage 2 etc. much more than the western ones. There are aspects of the eastern game play I dont enjoy and aspects of the western gameplay that I hate. But as far as graphics go Eastern mmos are number…
The combat style actually seems really original. From what I have read you have to do more than just click on something to attack it. I read that when using a ranged weapon you switch into FPS mode to aim and attack. To me that sounds exciting becas…
They could never get it right. Mythic and EA have no clue what UO was. Ea took control and soon began trying to turn UO into Diablo2 and now into WoW. The only Uo2 I would ever play is if someone competent was in charge. UO2 by Mythic and EA would j…
The MMORPG of my dreams is a remake of UO pre AOS where nothing will ever be changed ever. Personally I would have the view and the click to move preserved eventhough all the new mmo players whine about click to move and non firt person view, I hate…
Actually the game you describe sounds like UO before they ruined it. UO
was the perfect game and nothing has ever come close to it. The FFA pvp
worked because not onyl were there groups of people looking to slay all
the innocents they can there were…
