Ask & Answer No. 15

We have another Ask and Answer for you and this one is full of great ideas that will help us to make Ultima Online even better. So go to your favorite fan site and submit those questions and ideas. We may even feature yours next week!

Why is such a huge amount karma granted when choosing the "nice" option to fight Exodus? Participating two or three times in the fight easily capped my karma. Zero to 20k took years, 20k to 32k was done in minutes. That really cheapens the continuous dedication of being "kind". (Pcuvush)

Publish 81 on TC1

Posted by Bonnie Armstrong | 2013 Feb 04 15:30 -0500 GMT

Greetings everyone,

I wanted to take a few moments to address the Publish 81 Weapon and Armor changes on TC1.  Please understand this was put on TC1 over a month ahead of a normal publish because the changes are so extensive that we wanted your feedback.  We appreciate your constructive feedback as to why you like or dislike the changes to Armor and Weapons.

We have no intentions of releasing these changes to production as they are.  Right now we are compiling your feedback that is on Stratics and from the feedback emails.  We expect to make several changes before this is actually released to all shards.  

Bleak currently has on a fire proof suit so have at him =)

Ask & Answer No. 14

Posted by Tim Chappell | 2013 Feb 04 14:54 -0500 GMT

In this week's Ask & Answer we received many questions requesting changes and our developers give a glimpse of what is being planned.

UO Auctions

Question: Have the dev team considered adding further to the high seas content? it seems most gave up a life at sea when they realized the resources it takes to run a ship. but piracy/bounty hunting are fantastic parts of the game. do you think that perhaps a hand in system for titles might bring attention back? perhaps items gained from merchant/pirate vessels could be handed in at Serpents Hold/Buccaneers Den for the Pirate/ the Bounty Hunter Titles? (Treasure Seeker)

Kyronix:  We have talked about different ways to enhance High Seas content and provide a greater reward for the requisite investment as well as having a look at balancing that investment.  A portion of the upcoming armor revamp will involve acquiring components for customization that will be available through a variety of means including pirate and merchant ship cargo. 

Mesanna:  We are also planning to add one or two deep water encounters…maybe of the ghostly kind =)
