And they want us to help convince EA to do it.

lets hope the world does end before they manage to butcher another IP LFD tools are great for cramming people into content, but quality > quantity. |

As much as I would like to see a UO2, after what Mythic did with WAR, I'd prefer they not bother.

Don't think there's a future for it without Richard Garriot and Raph Koster working on it.

If it were the original Mythic that made DAOC, sure I'd be behind it. The Mythic now, I can't....I just can't.
What happens when you log off your characters????..... |

No... I want a UO2 but I want a well done UO2 that sticks to the core aspects that made the game so unique. Mythic is just a shell of its former self after EA bought and gutted it, so no thanks.
Bad Mythic, Bad... |

"Support our crappy ARPG Ultima-in-name-only game and maybe we'll get the chance to make UO2!" Yeah, up yours buddy. Firstly, you massacred the Warhammer IP. Secondly, you aided in massacring (to a lesser extent, admittedly) the Star Wars IP. Thirdly, you're in the act of massacring the Ultima IP... No. Just no. Go fuck yourselves, Mythic. |

What I'm wondering is if they want to make it because they want to redeem themselves/make a good mmo, or if they just want a project to work on so they can hold on to their jobs. Either way it's pretty ballsy of them to do this because they still have those EA shackles grasping tightly around their ankles.

I, like many others, have lots of nostalgia for the old place, but I still feel drained from the old flamewars. The community can't decide on what UO is ... the secret sauce is different for everyone... but how can I support a theoretical sequel when I can't imagine getting more than handful of people to agree on any one design?

Mythic may have screwed up Warhammer, but Garriot screwed up Tabula Rasa.
I actually think their version of Warhammer wasn't that bad. People were expecting DAOC 2.0 and they didn't get it, so that probably caused the game to fail.
I think Mythic could pull off a new Ultima. What company would you suggest attempt it? |

Originally posted by Xiaoki That's not Mythic. Mythic is dead. All the talent that was a part of Mythic has been gutted by EA. There are now more Bioware employees in Mythic than former Mythic guys. Between EA and Bioware... I don't want to them to even think about touching Ultima Online 2, especially not after seeing the horrible Ultima 4 remake they're doing. Bioware has been working to further destroy DAoC for the last 2 years or so.
EA has not once been involved in a good MMO. Every MMO they touch dies. Do NOT let this happen. They already cancelled DAoC 2 and Imperator. |

Even the old Mythic couldn't be trusted, look how they screwed up DAoC.

So they'll make another game that plays exactly like Warhammer, and Rift....yeah a 3rd one of these games I doubt would be a good thing. But then again third time's the charm?

Originally posted by Hrimnir Same here. filmoret: One thing I have never figured out is why the game devs hardly ever fix simple problems that arise. It is like they don't care about the pvp community. Nitth: What makes you so sure its a simple fix? filmoret: Because most of them are. Sometimes its just changing a number in a code string other times its creating a few variables. However none of them should take over a few hours of coding. |

Mythic? LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
Yeah.... no thanks. "Dogs are the leaders of the planet. If you see two life forms, one of them's making a poop, the other one's carrying it for him, who would you assume is in charge."

Originally posted by Brixon DAoC didn't truly go down the tubes until EA bought them.
It's really sad that the company behind one of the best designed MMos in the history of the genre... now has its name forever laughed at because of EA and WAR. |
