p.s.: are you going to implement Oculus Rift support?


Oculus Rift will be old news, mate. When 2.0 is released, you will just lay in a gel pool and plug yourself in. Then you are actually the character. It will be the greatest game ever made.

don't need to wait for 2042. Uthgard devs already plugged in and in a physical coma.

This is my first and last post since Uthgard is under revamp.

First of all, thank you staff for such great fun I had on your server - it's almost like a childhood memory.


Well, I'm done waiting, I'm probably done with DAoC. ESO is a lot like it... if course its not daoc and nothing will ever be daoc, but its cool anyway. I did not come here to advertise ESO, but rather to say something to staff and something to players.

To staff:

Although this is your project and you have every right to do whatever you want, you are killing it. Uthgard is nothing without players, nothing. If you don't even intend to ever release it, then thats evil :D And if you really do want to release it some day, then what the hell? Two years? And a few pieces of info every 4 months? I mean, this is terrible PR. If you cared for future of DAoC, you would take 5 MINUTES a month to write news: "Hey, whats up, we are working, added some more code this month", thats it! Just that line would show like you care. It doesn't take much and gives the community so much. You think it doesn't matter if they know if you added some code, well it does. It just shows you care about commnity and server. If you are already giving so much of your free time for this server, it makes no sense not to give that little more for community, which is the core of it. Think about it.


To players:

Now what the hell are you guys thinking?? I come here every now and then to see whats going on, and you just ramble on like some retarded meth addicts, get a ****** life will you?! This server is THEIRS and you have NOOOO FU**IN RIGHT to demand anything at all! Nothing!! Commenting every day and checking for news and new comments and talking about nonsense, my god, do somthing else, seriously. If only you could see how pathetic this looks through my eyes. Sometimes I come here just for the laughs, its like when you turn on the TV and watch something just becuase its so incredibly stupid and bad that you cannot switch channel for some reason. Really, consider learning a language or an instrument or how to knit or what is the best way to peel bananas. Anything would be better then that.


Anyway, none of my business what any of you is doing, it's just my insight, my 2 cents, my observations. Thank you to both players and staff for the ride, it was fun. Even though I highly doubt it, maybe I'll see you again on Uthgard in future. Have fun!


P.S.: And as I said, my first and last post, not replying to any comments on my comment. Probably I'm not even gonna see the reply anyway.

i am almost sure you will see the reply, even though you say you won't. just like most of us here, we come here to have fun and chat about fantasy land. and i do agree with you on most points but why rage against people that post here? the website is public, the forum is public, the imaginary grab bags are here, so players still have hopes. just like when you waiting for winning lottery ticket.
don't hate the player.

daoc is old game, no matter how good uthgard staff intentions are, you won't see much players staying on ANY server. the story is the same, you get influx at first with players who were sitting on sidelines waiting and waiting and fantasizing about good old DAOC days and then reality hits them: crap, my toon is made of 10 pixels.

CU will kill whatever is left of DAOC community, whatever happens in between is just noise.

GL!

i hope you don't mean that the game that is in development sucks. i give it at least another 6 months for any public announcements. all those beta/alpha that is going now is not for mass public. if you claim that 2003 DAOC is still better than 3 realm CU warfare with improved graphics, something wrong with you.
ah, i forgot, you want to play games for free! sorry!

Improved graphics has always been a big factor when playing a game.

Yeah sure, improved graphics keep your attention for a week or so until you start realizing that the content is just as stupid like most of the nowadays games and zombies who got blinded and brain washed day by day ...

You play new games for a few weeks maybe and after a year you ´ve even forgotten it ever existed and continue to consume these beautiful graphic games with no real content over and over and you ain ´t happy.
Deep in your heart, you still wish you could turn back the time to good ol ´daoc days. This is the reason most of us are still here, I guess .

So many years gone, but daoc is still there and kept in many minds, but the majority of these "daockiller" games is just as forgotten as their better graphic details. Graphic isn ´t that important as many ppl think, many ppl like to play retro games and daoc is still lead in many ways, even after all these years, especially pvp.

i strongly suggest for nursing home crowd here to restart their mud games and not worry about modernization in game technology. the newer the game, the less substance it has for sure. turn left, you see a wall made of 1 pixel, turn right, you see a wall made of 2 pixels. command: turn left, right is too advanced for me.

most "modernization" in game technology is used to make games look nice but the content is designed for ADHD 10 year olds, with a reward cycle of minutes ...
yes, there are a few good ones, but most of them (like CU) were only made possible through Kickstarter, where people who actually care about gaming and games do put their money behind projects which mostly recreate 'old' game concepts with better graphics and some alterations
imho DAoC is certainly in the "still ok looking" range of older games :)

cheers
