    FPS HELP! please

    Not saying this is the root cause nor that it will fix the problem, but another thing you might want to do is check for any signs of thermal throttling. Too much heat might force the system to dial back the performance.

    Glory for Other Than Kills?

    Would be a good idea. Maybe when gathering ore or wood, if we receive a precious gem or rock, can also gain ~100 glory. Other ways could include taming dangerous wildlife on a one-off basis per creature. After all, we do have to take them down to mercy mode first, which may be challenging...

    How much int needed to do decent heals?

    Int is worth it if you're into crafting or related skills that give bonus skill points based on the attribute. Coupled with the insane amount of clades designed to give humans even more profession skill points, you get to play semi-self sufficiently on one character. But I digress.

    Weapon Durability

    The threshold for melee weapon damage reduction has been reduced to 20% durability in the latest patch, down from 50% previously. "Balance Changes Bows now start to lose damage when below 20% durability. Like melee weapons." Source...

    Why I Don't Play MO2

    I think for your first point, we already have that. On my character, for example, I can make soft armours, shields, blades and horse gear. I could specialise, or be a generalist. But not be both. For Your second point, the higher tier gatherables and materials require specialisation, so that...

    Need help with character build

    Solo player here. The game has preset builds now, though if that does not help, pure Tindremene could be an option, as they can be hybrid fighter mages. Alvarins may be another option, they have some nice abilities and do well as mages.

    Give option to change character voice

    I think having a voice selector of variations based on your chosen race at character creation is fine, as is a one-off change for existing characters. But changing the voice at will and to different racial voices is a bit too jarring. Changing of names probably isn't something that SV will...

    Foraging Tasks Are Broken

    While I appreciate the new foraging tasks, the system is broken in its current form, in my opinion. Take for instance, gathering sea dew is 6km away from Fabernum, and the reward is something like 30 silvers and 20 glory. That is not rewarding nor worthwhile to any player, veteran or newcomer...

    Announcement | Monthly Dev Stream Change

    I think it would be good if Henrik can continue to stream bi-weekly but keep them shorter instead of going for hours on end. People like myself simply don't have the time to watch such long livestreams even if he were to do it once a month.

    Murder Counts/Standing is Worthless

    It could be argued that steel plate and steel axe are relatively overpowered versus noobs that have nothing close to that and hence "hit for zero" against that kind of gear. I'm not disagreeing that getting ganked by vets using that kind of gear can drive some new players away. Or that...

    Murder Counts/Standing is Worthless

    Hmm not sure what you meant by overpowered vets killing noobs in the two videos. The first one looked like a naked guy running away from you because you were chasing him with a dagger that was hitting scoundrels for ~65 damage (pretty impressive, I might add). The steel-clad guys looked like...

    More Thievery!!!! Ultima Online (Outlands)

    Sprint one of next roadmap, I hope. Add a bunch of utility secondary skills, and many non-thieves may likely join the thieves in taking up the skill line, too. It would also be the perfect timing to introduce sneak stance into the game.

    Oh My, Thievery!!! Check This Out! Reign of Guilds

    Assuming they can filter out all the potentially rampant astro-turfing as well. Google Forms was the worst platform (in my opinion) for holding a feature poll that I have ever seen.

    Oh My, Thievery!!! Check This Out! Reign of Guilds

    I really hope that after Sprint 4 they will introduce thievery as one of the core features of Sprint 1 in the next roadmap. Not seeing it in the next roadmap is going to make a lot of people think that thievery is nothing more than a pipe-dream that will never get implemented. I don't think I...

    Login Servers Constantly Broken

    It happens on my end from time to time, too. Just need to click Cancel and Login again. It had worked 100% of the time for me. Though it doesn't make it acceptable, and SV should have a look into it when they have the time.

    Pets Have Ruined the Game Completely

    One way they can make combat pets less overpowered is to make controlling them a channelling action like casting a spell when targeting another player. If the combat pet user takes any other action during PvP, the pet disengages and reverts to its passive state. This means the pet user has to...

    Server dead

    MO1 right now definitely has more features than MO2, I suppose it's a matter of time for the latter to catch up. I also think that MO2 is aiming to be its own game, which may be the reason why MO1 is still running, howbeit on maintenance mode. Though I hope that in time all the things we loved...

    Server dead

    If I recall correctly, the old MO1 launcher was a perfect example of what MO2 could use. It had the news for the game, server status, and links to the game's social media and website. Perhaps it just needs to be reworked to show MO2 news and server status. I'm sure some of the MO1 vets would be...

    RMT

    Stopping game sales outside US and EU means players from Australia like myself and others (who don't RMT at all) won't be able to play. It also won't solve the RMT problem. I wouldn't say RMT is a phenomenon that occurs only outside of the US and EU. In all likelihood it is a global one on an...
