:wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall:

this is what I experienced while trying to quest, errmm - elsewhere.

I remember when I rolled my first Infil in '01 that lvl 40 was considered RVR-able and to get there in its self was an achievement. You could grind the levels out, or take tasks, ect; however, the xp rate was rather slow. Now it seems that XP rates are climbing ever higher. Dont get me wrong there should be some balance between "dont want to out level the content" ( like I did yesterday "elsewhere" 3 levels in an hour chain pulling in Mithra) and "lets go RvR already!!

I wonder what the road map is for that situation for Uth? as I recall when I played last the xp rate was some where in this range? I recall getting high enough for the trash in DF felt like Id gotten somewhere, yet I still had fun with the content.

With that first Infi I made Mithra was great leveling and always full because people didnt out level it so quickly. Hell the gear you get is barley usfull because you level past it YET for RVR people want that fix asap.
This is why the BG are so popular its the best of both worlds, as well as, a refresher/primer for "bigboy RvR". One thing of note form "elsewhere" is the 5-9 BG - one hell of a lot of fun, bunch of <10 noobs trouncing each other.

I was playing earlyer, trying to xp and do some quests, :wall: on my ranger and I just kept thinking "Damn I hope Uthgard has this stuff nailed down" I know they did before. I cant wait - Come one already, already :D
Let the flames begin
:D

Cuz for THIS is the one and ONLY thing defining the heading in the last 1,5 years...inconsequence !

Devs decided to WIPE a well known, well crowded server with loads of characters,working guilds, hard earned stuff and achievements, out of FEAR facing an new crappy server which was meant to die after a few weeks. The one and only reason genesis is still alive is the SELFINFLICTED downfall of Uthgard.

Suddenly everything which existed for years was bad and not finished and ready to die....crap.

And now this sad story will even continue AGAIN cuz it is STILL not finished to the point you claimed is the goal : NO SI ? NO working Old Ras ? NO barrels? Hell we got 2 new classes...you will have a hard time telling ppl what you even DID all the time.


one word : INCONSEQUENCE


P.S. many will hate me for this...but its simple truth and many others thinking about it will come to the same conclusion, NOTHING changed....point :evil:


I thought his post was spot on and agree 100%. They closed the server why again? Based on their own post they wiped out players hard work for years so they could implement a proper working Necro, Bonedancer, and a rigged version of Old RA's that will never be able to be tested. All things that were on track to be fixed without shutting down the server and reseting YEARS of work by players. Keep burying your noses up the GM's rear ends. When every single real issue exists on the new server in less than a year I will be the one laughing. The issues came down to two main issues: 1. Population 2. Hard core players vs Casual.

None of these new fixes or changes required the shutting down of the server. None required resetting the server. But keep believing....

Not sure what the complaint is here about Old RA. They'll work.


The questions is not if they will work. It is whether or not they will work properly. Something that cannot be checked.

I mean, I like zerging and adding, but I also like to have at least the chance for single grp fights from time to time.


As I stated before. The biggest problem on this server had nothing to do with patch settings, custom fixes, or any other BS. It came down to population. When you have tons of players there is stuff for every play style. When you are sitting on 240 players on a server and only 5 of them are doing RvR then it kind of kills it for the casuals.

oswaldo i guess y didnt even read his post or? its not the wipe itself and killdich whatever plz delete yourself and jump out of the window!! its the best for everyone.

hes talking about the downtime no communication and the dictatorial behavior on this server. Those things are known and we cant change it.

Those who are longer on this server wont hate you for this post and also agree with those things
its not the wipe itself
but it never had to be a downtime like this.

The Reason why i stayed from begin till end on uthgard is the community
we switched from live to uthgard and found many nice people here. + there was nearly no downtime in past till reset.

in my eyes blue just wants somehow whyever to punish the community and make them greedy
sure you can continue with licking his ass by blindly donating an posting those pics in forum but in my eyes this is pathetic

i could continue writing 2 pages about the things i saw in the past 1x years on uthgard but i think this wouldnt bring us much farther.

if he would be community friendly and proffesional he would just set up a testserver which wouldnt cost him a cent more and we had no downtime. The excuse some things can only be implented testet this way is just a dump answer.

im pretty sure it wont take long anymore and the server could be up sooner then we thought but the problems will still be there

im pretty sure after 1-2 years we will have the same problem you mentioned about population and hardore and casuel again on uthgard. But i guess there is not much the staff can do against it

There is a whole lot of butthurt isnt there? I get it though, characters people put time into ect. Unfortunately games are never an investment, they are time sinks - volatile at that. So the server "sundowned" however it coming back .

I lost my characters as well, but ya know what? In the end its a game, on someone elses dime at that . I donated because I played for ever and it didnt cost me a cent. Its money well spent imo and I plan to donate regularly assuming good progress and a solid server.

We are entitled to nothing, we are owed nothing so say thank you and play the game - donate some cash to help cover expenses if you like it.

Thank you for all your hard work past present and future. Of all the shard Uthgard was the best because it nailed the "ol timey" feel. I believe that it will be again; time will tell.

This is EXACTLY the attitude we should all have. There are no guarantees for something like this. Even if the Devs say they are going to this or that things change. I don't expect anything to be set in stone on Uthgard, and I am ok with that or I wouldn't be here. I play for the enjoyment of the game not to see how many toons I can get to 50.

It took 16 hours over two days to do 49 - 50 on my Cleric. Made me wanna puke lol.
There will be a group of people out there who will want this realm to be entirely Mythic-like. Exactly like vanilla, drop rates/xp rates, basically everything and you will not be able to please them unless it is exactly like vanilla.

These people have their nostalgia goggles on so tight it's cutting off the bloodflow to their brain and they believe that vanilla was perfect and nothing was wrong with it.
