As many of you may have already noticed by now, Jeremy (UO Community Relations) made a very interesting comment last week in the Five on Friday announcement, where it was stated:

"This marks the end of my first week in a while at an actual desk - the EA Mythic Austin office is officially open! (We still haven't lured MrTact from his cave, but soon he'll be within smacking range..."

To date, this seems to be the only information available that makes any mention at all of a possible move back to Ultima Online's home in Austin, Texas. The only other hint that major moves may be underway are over on the official EA Jobs Website where 7 positions are listed for Ultima Online. Every position is currently listing Fairfax, VA as the location for the jobs, except that all 5 Development positions specifically state at the very top of their announcements "Location: Fairfax, Virginia (must be willing to relocate if necessary, no telecommuting)" - the only two positions that don't have this caveat are the Customer Support Rep I (Operations Dept) and the PR Specialist/Publicist (Marketing Dept) positions, both of which seem to still have every intention of staying in Fairfax, VA.

As we find out more about the new EA Mythic Austin office and exactly what that might mean for the development of Ultima Online, we'll let you know. Stay tuned!

I still think they should move to Hollywood, Ca so that I can get a job for them!

I'd rather we stick their office somewhere like Oaklahoma, so they wont have too many distractions to keep them from working.
