What keeps people from playing Siege? - Page 4

I have a char on siege, but rarely play her. I get tired of the slow skill gains. Dying or getting PKed isn't a big deal to me... just rez, dust yourself off, and get back into the game. Getting beat down by a headless or a mongbat after playing for a few weeks is discouraging tho.

LOL, yeah, I will admit, having to run and bandage against an ettin is really humbling.

I don't play on Siege because I started playing right after AOS came out so that's all I know, I would be lost over there. And I'm a total trammie, so getting my butt kicked constantly doesn't appeal to me.

I don't play on Siege because I play on another shard. I have real life friends on the Atlantic. I can't complete one of my six template on the atlantic, so why I more to another shard and try to create and complete that template.

Dont like pvp in UO so would never play siege.

I never played Siege because of ping. I ping like 200-300 to it. I always thought that was too much compared to 60-80 on my home shard.

Did not vote since the one thing that keeps me from playing Siege is not listed, one character only.

I'm also going to have to agree.

I keep getting told to, but the population is so low, there's little chance of getting a pvp, and, as such, I don't bother.

I don't really consider Siege a good example of the old days. You could go a long time without being PKed in the old days if you kept your eyes open and avoided very popular PK spots.
In the old days people were playing to play, and you typically had one PK char for a change of pase, but with Siege... everyone is on there for the purpose of PvP, so if you see another person that is not your friend more then likely you are going to fight (similar to being in fel on a normal shard)
The old days had its bad time, but the fact that you could turn around and kill someone that was being a jerk was very nice (a self policing system).

Option number 6 that wasn't listed.

I stopped playing on Seige for the same reason I stopped playing UO.

Because EA is a crappy company and the game is full of cheaters and piss poor programming.

It saddens me to think of how good UO could have been, but thanks to the pathetic leadership at EA, UO is nothing but a pile of garbage ruled by scripters, speeders and dupers.
