Return to Britannia!Calvin Crowner22 Sep 2009 15:15:53Someone once mentioned something about the best laid plans of mice and men. I think you can also add Ultima Online into the mix now.


Today we have officially opened the gates for all players in good standing to return to Britannia. All accounts have been opened and former players can login using their original user name and password. (Forgot them? Contact EA Customer service at http://support.ea.com) Accounts will remain open through October 16th to allow former players the opportunity to get reacquainted with the game and community. Spread the word to friends and family - there has never been a better time to return to Britannia!



But people keep saying its ending on the 6th which is it?

According to UOHerald it is the 16th.

The EAJapan site said the 6th, not sure if its changed, or if their timeline is different from ours.

Yep

But if you can't get on on the 6th or the following day, it's really the 6th then

EA Japan official site announced "Return to Britannia!" shortly before Herald, which said that it would last until the 6th at that time.

But soon after that, it was announced that it would last until the 16th on Herald.

I thought EA J might be right, because 1) the 6th is tuesday and 2) 22th Sep. to 6th Oct. is just 2 weeks. But it was Cal that announced this. I thought it is Cal that can make a decision on such things. So I sent a feedback to EA J that Cal posted "Return to Britannia!" would last until the 16th Oct. on Herald. Then EA Japan official site changed the date " ...last until the 16th." according to Herald.

But even now I have a suspicion that EA Japan might have been right.

Blah! Can we get an official answer? Please!

 

[Silly Seadog]

Well, that doesnt seem right =/ If they said the 16th on the US info, then it needs to stay the 16th.

Oh well, it was a nice little free ride. My main account went down last week, but Return To brit kept it up, Now i have to shell out the 12.99..Blast it!
Im cheap.

oh.. well I read it as 5am.. my bad..... but still... someone needs to do some explaining.
and Corpse... I dunno whats going on with the Return to Brit thing, but my accounts should've gone down because of it (switching CCs on the accounts) and they are still up.

Some contradicting facts, RTB may not be over according to this person, maybe i just got banned for some reason.

Maybe it did end, someone realized someone else messed up then fixed it?

There is a weekly maintenance for account DB or login server on every Tuesday 05:00 AM EST(=EDT), so I was in suspicion that RtB would end at 05:00 of this Tuesday.

But if non-active accounts can log in even after the maintenance, it will last till the 16th as they stated. Bravo!
