Sure, for the nostalgic flair it ´s nice to spend a few weeks or months with these old settings, but if you plan to play with that setting more then a year some things you will get rid off and annoyed very quickly.

I hope we will have some custom fixes for gameplay and balance from later patches in, but it ´s quite impossible to get any statement by staff at the moment. Probably most of the hot topics are not decided yet, because they are busy with their coding, but I´m pretty sure they will be at the 1.65 setting as close as possible and that ´s a pitty.

So many settings were real crap these days, but I don ´t mind, most of the annoying things influenced rvr only, when I don ´t like it, I´ll make some pve with Alphaone and Galladoriaraids and focus on crafting and farming , economy will be a big trait again, I guess

Time to say something, after waiting for Uthgards returning for over 1 year.

So, you would wonder how difficult and annoying these experiences have been for ppl? I, for myself, am waiting for the challenge that this pure classic setup will give me (again). I ve been playing on Genesis (blame me ) for the last year and allover i like it for giving me daoc in this hard times.

Uthgard had its struggles in the beginning and thats what Genesis is like.. a Server in the starting line. But thats why i wait for Uthgard, a 10+ year stable server where i know what my class can do and what not. A server where i need more than 5 ppl to kill the midgard dragon, cause it never was meant to be such an easy mob. A server where I can say my wife thats your Berserkers Damage with these and that RAs, not today, not tomorrow but stable (!) for the next year we rvr.

Dont understand me wrong, i like playing on Genesis too, but its that promise we will have a constant patchlevel that makes me waiting further for uthgard.

Ok, point 2 of the quote: custom changes

Sure id like to have barrels and sure id like to see some balance tweaks, but hey, if its for this pure feeling i ve to miss them, so what? it will not kill me and ill live with it, its the decision of the staff how or if they will implement something custom and if they decide to do nothing custom at all ill gladly live with it.

point 3 of the quote

sure it was not all roses and sunshine back in the old days and we will have to overlook some of our gameplay with a pure classic setup, but this will not influence my will to both : rvr and pve

enough from my side for now cya on Uthgard 2.0 and sorry for that wall of text

I'm pretty sure hologram games and virtual reality will actually stop uthgard 2.0. I mean, imagine you are blasting through space with your warp engines and using your full virtual reality in the year 2215-- why would you even play daoc when uthgard finally releases?

@QeoSereai
I agree with your post. My post wasn ´t meant as a complaint, I would like to see barrels and some other custom fixes/content in too but if they are not in I will play anyway. I played Daoc from the beta on with only small breaks so I ´m an experienced player and I remember what these classic days were like. I prefered later patches for balance and bug issues, but I didn ´t like the other expansions so much, so a mix would be the best in my opinion.

TOA made a great difference in the history of daoc, so it ´s right to just attempt to the Shrouded Isled add on and make a break there to declare this server as a pure classic server. Nevertheless, some of these later patches were really necessary and urgent, but I see the point, it ´s hard to say where to stop. If you put some of these custom fixes in, some other ppl might call for further fixes for their classes and so on and that would upset other ppl then.

But I would not like to see tradable poisened weapons for example, crapy battlegates or no realmpoints while dead, but I ´m pretty sure that ´s like it is gonna be. I´ll find my way through because I always found a place in daoc to play, and I´m looking forward to play at Uth. 2.0 , I´m pretty sure it will be awesome, escpecially in the first year where everybody has place to grow .

Haven't had a chance to go through all 49 pages of comments but is this server going to be back online soon? Not venting i'm only asking so please don't flame.

No release date till now

why are we not at page 50 yet? I want page 50 dammit!

depends on the size of posts

Nostalgia hit me so hard over the past few days that i'm thinking of checking back to live just for a bit. I am starved....
I wonder how long the live servers will be kept running. From what i was able to find out, its all seems pretty dead.
Also, yes. 50 pages.

We should make a campaign when the live servers go down to fetch these players for Uthgard, but I think they will not close the live servers, but make them free to play and that would in the backturn take some of the playerbase from Uthgard. But EA will milk their cows as long as possible, so it ´s pretty unlikely the servers will be shut down or free to play soon.

What do you guys think, will we hit 100 pages before a new news post is up?

I think EA already sold daoc to some other company?

edit: ok google explained to me they only gave the further development part to Broadsword Online Games, but EA still "owns" daoc.

I heard from a super legit source that Uthgard will be up on 20th April

Yes! You are right! But......2018....(i dont hope so)

Sry i got to few beers right now.....what was the quest?
lol.......damn it.....open...the fu..... server pls!
