Sounds like I will need to finish my Thief character, or get my kid to do it.
- Build the Classic Client on modern platform/newer development software (1st part of the graphics update - finished)
- Update the renderer to go to 60 fps (1st part of the graphics update)
- Make the gameplay window adjustable (2nd part of the graphics update, tougher)
- After those things, they'll look at quality-of-life changes in the future.
They hope that no old tools are affected (UO Assist) and believe that they won't be affected.Sounds like the build/render stuff is happening now, and the gameplay window is farther out.
Edit: No Martian Dreams/spaceships/ray guns are planned.
The NL shard will never go down permanently (will be some downtime with the switchover with a new season). New season resets the shard and things begin again.
The NL shard will be the most fleshed-out new player onboarding experience.
Never be afraid to challenge the status quo
Thanks for this recap @Lokea but I encourage folks here to check out the VOD Epic just posted to his YouTube channel as well!
And thinking of showing the most epic of OSI content creators some love by subbing to Patrick's channel, Team Ultima Online!
