Gives me NO incentive to log in

JackFlashUk

I have been reading that sampires and other non crafting combat players are just waiting for a crafter to break down doors?

are these just the bot trains waiting to chase each other around and contribute nothing?

Why aren't players going around to get materials for the crafters?

I have more resources than I will even need on Europa/Legends and Atl and this gives me NO incentive to log in a partake

Just selfish greed

Waiting for hours for the doors to open?

Disgrace

Sounds like Ararat to me, all waiting and not getting keys

I shall continue with Star Citizen I think 

This sound like a load of crap, sorry Devs, it seems that players are letting you down here

if I do decide to log in I will have my crafter there waiting for deposits to be made so I can make the required bombs, or whatever they are, failing that I will just sit there as well

Popps?

They even wait on Atlantic.  I was there around midnight. Lots of players almost EM event numbers.

A few players did bring bombs, 4 set up catapults,  but they did not realize how many catapult shots it took, so they all ran out at 50%. 

They went out and made more kits and got the gate open.

Did any of you play Khaldun?

Did yall wait for someone to make your weapons, books, and pet treats?  You could do no damage with normal gear.

If no one else will make the stuff.  Heck ya, do that.

After soloing taking the walls out a handful of times, I offered in chat that it would be great if players could donate a few of x y z resources so I could build more kits. Nothing but crickets from anyone that ran in to fight. Including zero response from the player I freely gave kegs of explosives to so he could get in on the drops you get for blowing up the walls. Bummer 

In addition, I’m having very little luck at finding resources in the chests jewel pouches. In fact this morning I’m having trouble finding any jewel pouches at all. 

Now I’m finding myself competing for chests with a player pulling a train of characters that’s fighting spawn and snagging chests at the same time. No need to open chests safely, just stand right next to them and take the hits from multiple traps. 

It takes a lot to discourage me when it comes to hopping back in and playing UO again during these events. I think the team did a great job with this event creativity speaking. 

That said, I play a pretty pure rogue skill wise. I always have loved my stealthy rogues. My build can’t compete with these fighter/ halfassed rogues. And I for sure can’t compete with a player pulling a train of four characters at once. 

Imo there hasn’t been enough done through game mechanics that insures rogues aren’t infringed upon when using their class skills to go after content meant for them.  

Lastly, if you come here to talk about it, make suggestions and discuss possible changes or ways to make improvements, or even just bounce ideas around, you get trolled by douchebags like McDoogle. He doesn’t offer anything of value. He just drifts into almost every thread and needles other posters. Including this one with his lame Popps response. 

There are too many other ways for me to be creative and enjoy my leisure time than to waste it on this. I’m over it at this point.

It would be cool to let rouges and ninja stealth in through the walls

@JackFlashUk I would like to respond to your title.

I'm going to tell you something for you, but I'm making it public.

I made a publication based on some facts that happen, which is what you say about hours waiting at the door.

The purpose of that post was really to suggest a change for a possible future problem that would happen in the medium to long term of the event, not exclusively in less populated shards.

To modify or create alternatives to gates, such as:

• That ingredients could be purchased from an NPC
• Accept other types of gate breaking, such as alchemist blast potions.
• Create a timer that after for example 1 hour without receiving explosions, it could be broken down by other options, such as weapon strikes, magic attacks, explosion potions, etc...

This was the real and true goal of this release. But the publication was distorted because some people did not see what I saw was going to happen and will very likely happen if things don't change. It was a thought for the good of all, so that everyone could be happy with the event.

I wanted to resist not saying this publicly until I saw a change from the developers, but you have to be grateful, I'll sum it up very simply:

The event looks great. It's the best I've ever played.

But I will not be completely satisfied until I see a majority feeling on this issue, the doors.

So, the biggest incentive you can have is, the joy that you can be helping others, no matter how it is, let's not judge if the other person does less, does more, let's put that aside, let's focus on what we can do for others.

I don't know you, I've never played with you, but I'm certain, from what I read here, that you have a LOT to contribute.

Be truly proud to be able to serve others in the way you do best.

‘The cards have already been revealed’ I'm sorry if the past day might have made someone feel bad, but sometimes, certain circumstances force me to roleplay being hard on some people.

And I add, I have nothing against any of the people I discussed, on the contrary, I thank you all without exception, because we all form this great universe that is Ultima Online.

I share some of the images of this GREAT GAME:

The True Avatar looked JackFlashUk in the eye and said “Get up, gather all the explosives you can and come and restore order, Sosaria needs you”.

Catapult launchers get drops.  Even after the gate is open. You don't have to open the event just to help others. You get rewarded!
Like I have said a few times, I have had to leave the Catapult because I was too full of Drops and rubble.

Radst

So I asked AI: who are considered the more important customers in online games: is it the 24/7 gamers or the casual/normal people who have work/life?

In conclusion:

1. People with huge forum post-count dont represent real opinion

2. Bots are crying that they cant profit 24/7

This event is working great: LET THEM WAIT -- GO MINE SOME ROCKS

Pawain

1. People with huge forum post-count dont represent real opinion

Look at my eyes when you talk to me, not my numbers!

 the entitlement is sickening

@Kyronix

if you have not read it already, please read the post here above... it really is disheartening for me to see these trains of characters... my gameplay, and I seem to understand also that of other fellow players, gets affected by them...

Is it too much to ask that something was to be done to stop these trains of characters as being possible ?

Thank you

JackFlashUk

lol how awesome would it be that rogues and thieves can sneak in, give the finger to the bots outside and loot.
