Pawain said: Yall should try Classic UO in App mode. It has the speed, which I also did not like/use, and they have done MANY updates in the last few months. The devs must be working with them on the art files because you could see the Cl…

Lokea said: If you had a "classic" shard, I just don't know where the players would come from. It's not going to be the majority of current players who are happy where they are at, it's not (hopefully) going to be Siege players. Former playe…

Lokea said: And as you rightly point out, you can't force current players to go to a new (or rather old) system because that would end UO as we know it. We can compare housing numbers on the non-Atlantic shards in terms of Tram/Fel and see wher…

Higher fps does help make the game look smoother. Agreed with InLor that a native client with some QoL, higher resolution and FPS is all good news.

Kyronix said: Thank you for the lengthy post - I do want to correct one of your assertions however, our community is thriving - there are countless players and guild organizations who are playing hard to make sure Britannia thrives. We are s…

Cookie said: I read most of it, and yes, I can see the point- in fact to be fair, you have 100% nailed it. I completely agree with the playstyle you are describing, this is what a majority of gamers want, but this is not what UO currently ser…

Lord_Nythrax said: Bruh even if they saw this post and said "Gadzooks he's right!" you'd never see a classic shard before the 2030's. It's a team with like two people left who know how to program a computer. This is when the team pitches t…

A Passionate Plea to Broadsword So I write this as devoted Ultima Online fans who want to see the game thrive. We’re not simply chasing nostalgia for its own sake; we truly believe that refocusing on the classic experience will benefit the entire UO…

Felucca-Only, But Not a Grief Fest – Finding the Balance The biggest concern whenever open PvP is mentioned is, of course, griefing and player attrition. We veterans fondly remember the wild west days of Felucca, but we also remember why Trammel was…

Lessons from EverQuest, WoW, and Others: Classic Servers Work Broadsword wouldn’t be sailing into uncharted waters here – multiple MMOs have successfully launched classic or progression servers to re-engage lapsed players. EverQuest, for example, ha…

Blank is great, very responsive dev and fixes things fast. I would recommend reaching out to him on the ClassicUO discord.

Necro-ing this post again since the announcement of a new UO producer. @Kyronix first off congratulations on your new position within UO. Excited to see what you can do for this game with your dedication and support. Just a heads up that the UO co…
