    The Death of a great game. A sad tale.

    I respect your right to have your opinion. You brought up some points which I feel is consistently brought up no matter what SV does, whether they follow the suggestions of some players or go their own way. I feel it's become somewhat of a community culture to bash SV no matter which direction...

    PvE Server

    Well, here's the thing, in a full PvP full looting game, you can't dictate to people that they must only PvP when they want to play murderer or highwayman. You cannot police the intent. It is either full PvP and full looting, or it is not. Should we have better systems that discourage mindless...

    PvE Server

    A nearly thirty-year old mmorpg called Ultima Online actually did just that way back at the turn of the century, ultimately lost both the PvP and PvE crowd, and is now a mere shadow of its former self. A more recent example would probably be Legends of Aria, that went into development with full...

    100% CPU Usage Problem

    The minimum CPU requirement is an i5-6600 and recommended is i7-12700. That may be why your CPU is maxed out.

    Special Stream Event - Wednesday 24th of July at 8 PM CEST

    Does this special stream event involve the announcement of thievery as the first item on the new roadmap?

    A very old returning player simple question

    Yeah I remember seeing you on MO1 forums way back in the early years. Welcome back!

    How to use deceit as a thief.

    I actually would really like them to work on thievery as the first item on their next roadmap. Hopefully a release in the next 2-3 months tops.

    How to use deceit as a thief.

    They do have ranged attacks yes, but they operated on line of sight so it was possible to sneak past them if they had their backs turned to you (provided you didn't get too close to them). Also, the lictors guarded the more sensitive areas like the bank and didn't teleport to you, if I remember...

    How to use deceit as a thief.

    Do not have any light items that can be lifted out of your pockets when you log out. Or Lashaniqua will surely find and take them a split-second before your logout timer runs out. :)

    Pepper spray

    Looking at the first two posters' forum profiles, both were created on the same day two months ago, both made only two posts, and all two posts were in response to each other's threads about gambling addiction and pepper spray. I'm sure it's pure coincidence. :LOL:

    Rework mastery system and switch it off meanwhile

    I also dislike the new Mastery system, the clade system was good enough as a grind, the last thing we need is more of it. Also, the amount of powers that one can get from maxing it out is a little excessive. I feel that it is turning MO2 into a different kind of game.

    A Very Old Ultima Online Ad - SV Please Take Note

    It may look that way, but all SV really needs to do is add a whole bunch of social and 'life' features such as tabletop games, musicianship, town message boards, more world interactivity like in Ultima 7: The Black Gate. The players will do the rest and make MO2 that little closer to what UO...

    Any Thievery Skills On That Mastery Tree?

    Thievery needs to be the first item on Sprint 1 of the next roadmap. They've kept all of us (thieves and non-thieves) waiting long enough. They can simply lift thievery straight out of MO1, make some tweaks and improvements to it, and release it.

    A Very Old Ultima Online Ad - SV Please Take Note

    It was an interesting time for the PC for sure, I saw computers having a 3.5 inch floppy drive, a hard disk drive around 200 mb, and an 8x speed CD drive.

    A Very Old Ultima Online Ad - SV Please Take Note

    By today's standards it may be. But keep in mind that this was back in the day when not many people have played, let alone know, what an mmorpg is even. An Internet connection was still a relatively new household item, running on 5-6 kilobytes per second.

    A Very Old Ultima Online Ad - SV Please Take Note

    This was purportedly an ad for UO from way back in 1998, some of us were probably not even born at that time. But something about the ad caught my eye, how the narrator framed the whole concept of what UO was. It talked about a world of player interaction, creativity, relationships, emotions...

    RMT

    There is no quick fix for RMT, it is a rampant industry that affects every mmorpg I know of. The best SV can do is active monitoring and cross-referencing of player activity to detect and ban those who engage in it. The fact of the matter is, if there is a demand for something, human nature...
