[UO Herald] Coming Soon - Update News

[LordDrago]

Even worse.

A Kelmo has been released on the Faction threads.

Prognosis?

Utter Destruction!!!!!

LOL

Humans and elves can ride mounts. Gargoyles can fly instead of riding mounts.
Make the panda race ridable!

maybe it's not ridable, maybe it's a Player Race - maybe Both, no more required gates for escorts, they can just get on - move at flying speed unmounted.
wonder what all the racial abilities are- extra HP like a tank? If i get flying speed and retain control slots, I'll make one

For all you people whinging about the 29th being too early for an April Fool's joke, from 17 years or more experience on the web, some of the biggest internet AF jokes I remember all started several WEEKS before 1 April, and slowly built up till then, to the point where when the reveal happened on the actual AFD, some people refused to believe the reveal (or thought the reveal of it being a joke was itself a joke, and the preceding stuff still real).

Timing is everything, and what works for one joke won't work for others.

 

[Sevin0oo0]

I guess the no draw tile, and concept art is a give away, huh?

 

[LordDrago]

I am just glad they stopped development on the Spongebob expansion:

lol

 

[Frarc]

you need 'venerated' to display the protest banners

I am Venerated.

 

[TheGrimmOmen]

No, you can't have pandas AND rideable flying great white sharks too. I'm drawing a line. ;-)

[Mandrake of DF]

Someone mixed the date? Still a few days left to 1st of april....

 

[Larisa]

no lie in the other game I play we have a panda mount..it's totally awesome.

I'd love to have a ridable panda in UO


Sorry I'm not promoting other games but I LOVE my panda! :/

I want Jaws as pet for my fisherman! Dum dum dum dum.....

 

[Vlaude]

I, for one, welcome our new Insect Panda overlords.

 

[G.v.P]

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

*dons electromagnetic chainmail suit*

Yay! Someone else who watches "Shark Week."

Ahh...between the shark's ampullae of Lorenzini and my osseous ampullae we shall sense a great many things.

 

[Mirt]

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)

Thats already there on Chesy. Its with dice but its in one of them check out the casions its really nice. Mounting as a special ability wow that ones going to be hard to keep in the TOS. Its kind of amazing to see how crazy folks are going at this joke. But if there are pandas I say we all make one and just invade the zoo.

 

[Wenchkin]

LOL. I was kinda wondering if they'd sneak some silliness into the publish notes this year. Is it sad that I kinda want that panda picture as my desktop wallpaper. I can then pull an April 1st on my partner 'cause he used to play UO too. "Yes dear, we're getting pandas in the autumn"

I'd rather have pandas as a race than orcs in UO, but my miner spent his childhood being chased by the mountain at the Yew fort I can get my fix in Wakfu instead though. I didn't realise WoW had pandas now though... but yeah, they fit Wakfu much better than what I imagine WoW is like. Don't laugh, but I honestly haven't even looked at the WoW site in years. I just imagine it's a wee bit more serious than pandas wearing their thongs on the outside. Or at least it looks like a thong from the pic. *reaches for brain bleach and a straw*

[Old Man of UO]

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

Soooo... you are saying that the Publish 74 Factions wipe was just a big April Fools joke, and we all got fooled, and it all gets reverted on April 1 with a new Factions Panda Publish?

HA HA! That is funny...

I don't think EA is whipping their Developers enough.

The beats will continue until the morale improves!!!!

 

[Kas Althume]

I'd like a spongebob expansion!

 

[Analayla]

What I get from reading the title of that post is "Soon we will get some news on what updates you guys will be getting soon..." then the rest of the post is "... in the meanwhile, let's see if you'll like this as much as you enjoyed the Yew Times!" So there's no real April Fools joke, it's just the Devs trying to make a humorous post to entertain us on top of informing us of what we should expect.
Jeez, it's like info-ception (yes, I went there). Informing us that they're going to inform us about what is coming.

Forget pandas!

FIX FACTIONS RANKS AND POINTS!!!

Weren't you all keen to be keeping it to a single thread?

that's a special ability of the panda: When a panda appears everyone go crazy

They bring Pandamonium?

 

[Basara]

I want to play a character that turns into a panda whenever it rains.... Just as long as my female character doesn't turn into a cat under the same circumstances.

 

[Shelleybean]

Shucks, I wish the casino was real!

 

[Warpig Inc]

Bring back the bounty head collecting. Wall mounted panda head trophy. Could have an option window of the dozen Kung Fu Panda faces. I'd pick the slow mo one after Tigeress kicked him in the head.

Wonder if they can get that code someplace for the cards. Just don't use the games RNG for dealing. Those 5 aces would come up way to often with a single deck.

Next year watch for T. Woods combat speed golf to make use of all those massive unused housing areas. New holiday event for ground hogs day "Return of Bill's Evil Mutant Elder Goffer"

 

[Vyal]

Is the Casino not real? That would be sweet if it was

 

[rareitem]

Please tell me that all about a casino and Panda race is nothing more than a bad joke.......
