Uthgard staff,

You have an excellent opportunity here to learn from Origins mistakes and produce an excellent game utilizing your existing infrastructure. Origins really screwed up their server upon going live, they further screwed up their server by not shutting down and wiping before the game got too far along and out-of-control, and they have further screwed up by providing a unstable server that has already caused many frustrated players to move on to a different game. I do applaud their effort in trying to bring us an Origins server; however, they have messed it up badly, perhaps even beyond repair.

Please use Origins mistakes as a learning experience in designing your new game. Origins did many things right; however, they have done too many things wrong. Their lost player base represents an opportunity for Uthgard to bring the people "something better".

Use brain before posting such ideas, please!

PL´ing was allowed on liveservers. Where did it lead to? Casual players not finding groups anymore to level with due to /level and guilds PL´ing their twinks, without any chance for an unknown player to jump in.

We also have elitist guilds that dont RvR with random people. PL´ing just makes it easier for them to level up twinks, so they wont have to group with randoms ever again.

No PL, no fast exp perfectly agree, Guild should help with craft and equip low toons , or create new char to help exp

As much as people may like to hate on Genesis formerly known as Origins, I think it is worth considering that Uthgard had a 10 year head start. The issues they are facing are hard to identify before going live and I fully expect most of these problems to disappear (at least as fas as stability is concerned). People also need to realize that the issues you are seeing are mostly not server related, but connection based (i.e. the server has a long up time, but people LD en masse at irregular intervals).

That being said, they should be credited for attracting a large number of old and new DOL players, so that is a big accomplishment. Whether Uthgard will be able to capitalize on that by providing a similar, but more refined classic experience remains to be seen.

Guys thanks for putting this work into this. It is a lot to do on your free time. Can't wait to see it.

Thumbs up btw! Best prerequisites. WB Metty and all new GM's.

wow Metty is back , but theschaf could upload any avatar image after those years ;P

Nice progress! keep go in! cant wait play again on Uthgard

What!
no French guy onboard !?! That's a clear explaination

... I know, I get out

Stop asking for custom changes. This is UTHGARD, where the dream is to make the server completely classic-like. If you want faster XP, more friendly routes to RvR, or power pots, GO PLAY A DIFFERENT SERVER.

The admins have already said this many times, why do you guys keep posting about customizing the server?

Schaf has one now. Hopefully with Metty back we'll get Tajendi 3.

They already listened a lot by cleaning and doing a revamp, taking time for fix bugs/finishing work on old ra and SI. What do you want more ? thats already a big work. And its gonna be classic. Barrels wasnt there. So Deal with it, more than 1 year they are gone, you wont have them back

The point is to make it Fun, and if your going to keep potions then why not bring back barrels. The only thing barrels bring is more time in RvR and less time in town crafting/restock on them. There are certain custom changes which I agree with and this is one.

NF reduced timesink. Several other patches, even ToA reduced timesink for RvR. You can get all this reduced timesink on liveservers. Not here.

no one want an exact copy of liveserver.. because i play on live in this case..

but we are in 2014.. and definitely, play with the 2001 xp rate.. is one of the reason because Uthgard now is closed.

Dev have to find a right compromise.. because people want to do RVR in a reaseonable time (quickly).. and not spend 1 month to level a toon for the 546 time.

You can't. Classic does not exist anymore on liveservers.

There is no DAoC on live servers.
