April Fool's Day joke a few days early?

 

[funkymonkey]

yer I was thinking that...

 

[LordDrago]

April Fool's Day joke a few days early?

thinking the same lol

 

[Rupert Avery]

you think?

 

[silent]

A weeee bit early?

 

[Cetric]

Be cool if the casino was real, but please tell me the panda thing is a joke lol. Orcs are long overdue!

 

[Mervyn]

I thought they already played the April fools joke with the Faction Ranking system

bowya! I went there sister

 

[Taylor]

lol! This has got to be a joke re: WoW's Mists of Pandaria. Apparently, I'm not the only one who got a chuckle over WoW's new cute, fluffy panda samurai.

 

[LordDrago]

Pub 77: Nerfing pandas

 

[LordDrago]

Looking forward to a casino (Ocean's 11 style)

 

[Mirt]

The Casino is real at least on Chesy. The panda that just can't be it has to be a WoW jab.

 

[Taylor]

Humans and elves can ride mounts. Gargoyles can fly instead of riding mounts.

Make the panda race ridable!

 

[ShadowTrauma]

Cute! You had me up until the pandas.

Oh and Mervyn, if I could give you two "Likes" for that comment I would.

Wow, an official EA pic with the 8x8 grid cheat visible! Who is gonna get banned now?

 

[SlobberKnocker]

Horrible.

this from my guild leader

Special Ability: Care Bear Stare.. Effect: Makes you weep at what the game has become..

 

[Frarc]

No Casino on my island! Its time to make my protest banners!

 

[Pinco]

So after the avatars, now we are all gonna be panda bears

 

[Andy316]

/sigh........... Who else other than me were hoping that they reverted the faction changes?... Who cares about a damn casino.... and a panda race, seriously?

 

[LordDrago]

So after the avatars, now we are all gonna be panda bears

Panda Bears with gambling addictions (Never a good thing when the Panda Convention comes into Atlantic City)

 

[Cetric]

I agree, when i first saw there was a uo thing posted, i was like AHH FACTION FIX/CHANGE?!?! but nope lol

 

[LordDrago]

HEY DEVS: Nerf Pandas. That's all you can see in Fel now is Pandas because they can stand there in WWF mode and anybody attacking them gets Greenpeace whacked.

 

[SirZ]

Сan anyone knows, the great developer Valve Software have a Valve Time - Valve Developer Community.

Today we are open 'Mythic time':
1st april (Mythic time) = 29th march (actual time)

 

[Martyna Zmuir]

Ha, ha, ha?

Glad they are taking complaints seriously...

 

[Taylor]

LordDrago: lol!

 

[SlobberKnocker]

factions is in ruins and all these guys can think of is gold sinks and some assinine rp event.

i think NERO runs EA now.

 

[SlobberKnocker]

id love to goto the casino but all my toons are stuck in my house reworking their suits.

 

[Cogniac]

This UOHerald joke at least served to remind me not to go on the Internet on Sunday, as every single site, forum, and blog will be wall-to-wall "Everybody listen to this thing that's completely true, I swearWHOOOAAAHH I GOT YOU I WAS TOTALLY LYING STRAIGHT TO YOUR FACE WASN'T THAT THE BEST APRIL FOOLS JOKE EVAR I GOT YOU SOOO GOOD LOLOLOLOLO WHAAAAAAATTT"

 

[Symma]

Hehe funny that even an April Fools joke can't be done correctly. hehe

 

[LordDrago]

"I'll be in to bed in a minute hon!!! I am down three million gold but my panda just drew a straight flush!!"

 

[virtualhabitat]

No Casino on my island! Its time to make my protest banners!

you need 'venerated' to display the protest banners

 

[Pinco]

you miss the point!
The faction changes are the joke, the pandas are real

Next we are gonna see PETA get involved when a Panda gets killed in PvP....​

Perhaps make PETA get involved in PvP as the Panda's Meat Shield!​

 

[MedeaDF]

Wow, I really hope the panda stuff is some kind of (early/bad) joke...

 

[ShadowTrauma]

I must admit when I first saw this post I also thought it was going to be about faction changes, however I understood the intent. What the Devs need to realize though is its like telling jokes at a funeral (factions RIP), it rarely if ever comes across as funny.

 

[Blacklisted86]

i think they should put in some poker tables, you could bet your gold against other players, that'd be awesome! (also up the limit at the arena so bets can be handled in game)

 

[Martyna Zmuir]

 

[Vlaude]

LOL!

 

[Taylor]

@Martyna Zmuir lol

 

[Viper09]

lol! This has got to be a joke re: WoW's Mists of Pandaria. Apparently, I'm not the only one who got a chuckle over WoW's new cute, fluffy panda samurai.

Lol, sadly the pandas in WoW isn't a joke.

 

[lucitus]

A new race cool I hope this is true, but no more pandering Casino is also a cool idea!

 

[Tjalle]

Humans and elves can ride mounts. Gargoyles can fly instead of riding mounts.

Make the panda race ridable!

Perhaps add a new special: Mounting?

 

[G.v.P]

lol I wonder if they'll really add functional casinos...last I went to the one on Chesapeake nothing really worked. as for the pandas, well, obviously that's April Fools, but...would be nice to have another race ...ORCS!

 

[Kelly O'Brian]

Entertaining thread so far. This news deserves more jokes, definitly! Popcorn anyone?

 

[Raptor85]

The funny part is that even if it were true it would be a lie...it's IMPOSSIBLE for "all shards" to get a casino in trammel...not all shards have a trammel!

Even their jokes are released too soon and without being tested properly for all shards :/

 

[Cirno]

It's not really jumping the shark, if you never come back down

Who doesn't have trammel?

And if your answer is Siege, I point you towards the Devs:

"Siege? Never heard of it!"

Sad, but might not be too far from reality.

 

[Martyna Zmuir]

It's a flying shark!

 

[LordDrago]

I want to tame a flying Great White (Greater White?)

 

[Martyna Zmuir]

If you tame one, will you set it loose in the factions threads?
