Mythic Service Outage - Enhanced Client Users Please Read

[James_Mythic]

Greetings!

As you may be aware, the UO Herald is currently unavailable. This is due to a network outage impacting a number of our services. Included in this outage is the Enhanced Client Patcher, to use the EC at this time please simply run the UOSA.exe file located in the directory where UO is installed.

We'll continue to provide updates on this issue as we work to resolve it - thanks!

Just question. Why you can't make torrent-based patcher such as in world of warcraft?
It's a good thing for devs - low load of patch servers and of course it's a good for players - high worldwide download speed.

Might want to consider posting this on the UO Herald now, since its up...

I don't think UO has the player base to support that. You really need a large client base for it to work well. And to be honest, WoW's patching always pissed me off. Even with their millions of clients, it was still very slow.

Please no. The WoW pathcer was the slowest thing ever.
