Hear! Hear!I know what its like to be hated on a lot. And while a lot of the people here don't mean to sound harsh I can understand how it is to take a lot of criticism. So from me and I am sure many of the people here I think you guys are doing a good job. Hell while UO may have changed it still has a UO feel. A different feel than other MMO's have. I also like the changes and additions you add most of the time. So here is my little applause to you guys keep it up.

While your opinion is valid (as everyone's is) I would just point out that you are focusing on one part ( or a specific part ) of the game. You called it "game breaking" but that only applies to those who's gamestyle is affected by the issue you're talking about. I never experience the issue because I don't PVP at all. That being said, I still support your position because I want everyone to enjoy the game the way 'they' play it.
You know garriot was not ditched, he was removed from hes position....big diffrence also called "power of EA"
He really ditched the game when he sold the rights to it. After that he got booted.
I am a software developer, and I know what you mean when it comes to modifying/maintaining old legacy code.
My applause to you guys too. It's the idiot Engineering wanabe bean counters that you work for that should be lined up and shot.I know what its like to be hated on a lot.

You do realize that EA bought Ultima back in the late 80's. From Ultima VII on it was an EA franchise. Ultima Online has always been an EA game.
You outline the exact reasons why most software companies release a new version of their software every few years.
While I might not always agree with the changes or even understand how it will affect my play until oops. I appreciate how you keep trying to improve the game while keeping the UO feel. Way to go. So keep it up, and feed us more Me too!!! After 11 years I still love UO!I'm with UltimaSword
Galad....STEP YER GAME UP!!!!!
I agree with you. I had a lot of hope that with all the good they would turn around factions. However, this faction update looks like a soon train wreck. I hope i'm wrong.I must say i lost my faith in UO some time ago, but slowly and surely they are regaining it. Magincia event, Spring Cleaning, Gardening changes, ... makes me feel theres only bigger stuff ahead of us. Maybe somehow DEV was listening to us all along. Now fix the dupes and you'll have me as a customer and loyal UO player till im the last man standing
Honestly, if it weren't for RP, this game would have been dead to me years and years ago. There is very that they have implemented properly in the past few years, or that they haven't taken major shortcuts on, or that they just haven't bothered to have the foresight to think ahead on.RaDian, even with all that it's still a great game - and THAT is what we're celebrating here. Show your love!
Add to that, won't cheer just because of Item Give-Aways- Ooops, I meant Events, to keep the real hardcores' heads clogged.Two thumbs up.
Oh wait...
Those aren't my thumbs....
Can't stand people that go back on their word.
Oh, and liars.
And cheaters too.
