The new UO

dragonxg8 · 11th November 2006, 04:25 PM

I think before they let people come to these forums make em take a quick test to make sure they aint WoW or any other MMO so they cant encourage people to leave UO for some other game (that means you dan zig) and i just took a look at the other one of his posts about "our time passing and coming to an end" that is a big load of crap cus i have seen bout 7 (young) players this weekend on LS alone, and with this new game client coming we will have plenty of newcomeing ppl, TAKE THAT WoW!

Dang!!!! I'm just looking at that EQ picture. The stats are impressive. (Impressive since they go over 100).

STR 176
StA 254
AGI 133
DEX 217
WIS 213
INT 315
CHA 180 etc. etc. etc.

But it looks too busy. Too many chat windows.

Still waiting for them to release more screenshots of new client.
Actually that's a great UI you have Ralcor, very clean looking to me , use to wish I could run my screen that size to cram more stuff in.

Here's an old pic of mine to show off...lookie who he made a pet of. hehe

WoW EQ looks like a flight simulator w/ so much on screen......*looks for joystick*

OMG I don't think I could play a game like that..looks far too complicated. UO was easy to learn as I had a good teacher and I'm learning more every day and upgrade that comes out. I look forward to seeing more pictures as they become available and can't wait for the upgrade!

goodbye and good luck to all my old friends and to all you newbies i have one piece of advice, unless your a retro arcade fan youll like WoW better.
farewell and ill see most of you in Azeroth soon

Sorry to say but many Wow players I have known who played UO before came back. But just quiting before really anything is finalized is kind of silly

For the record... I played UO since T2A was initially released. So I would not be down talking it, since I still have my original account. The graphics are dated, but still good enough for me.

As for my EQ screenie.... That UI is called Qbox II, heavily modded by me :grin:. I prefer to have everything available for review, thats why it looks cluttered. But if you were to actually use it in the way I do, it makes it easier than having two chat screens rolling. All the windows are filtered to a different chat, meaning battle spam, raid say, guild say, group say, crits, raid channel, out of character, pickup channel, and serverwide necro channel all go to a different window. This way I dont miss anything important. The spellbar is larger than normal, and actually has a label for what spell it is instead of just an icon, buff bar has labels instead of icon, and all my items with right click effect are on the main UI instead of within a secondary view blocking window.

quite simple... But yea... UO is still cool in my book. And WoW is not.

No worries, I live on Siege. Fel is for :newbie: 's!!

j/k,
Siege is for those that don't mind no insurance and all it implies. Not everyone likes to play that way.

Famous...bah, tis a fickle beast with many faces.
I've just been around a long time! :grin:
