Oh people, people... I'm an UDIC, I make the claim to know most of the Ages of (at least) u5-u9. UO NEVER HAS HAD ANYTHING to do with Ultima. And since EA grabbed it... Seriously, if you would simply give UO another map for only Trammel and Felucca (Britannia), then you would comfortly wind up with ...

WishStone Dragon

I would wish them to either find a new home together, away from EA, or to get together and build something new. Sadly, you guys before me were right. That wasn`t Origin anymore. It was a handpuppet for EA. But if I look back on the (partly gross) changes UO alone went through.. *shakes her head* Nop...

WishStone Dragon

*mutters* Okay, back to topic: I like how it is. I (most of the time) want to play a game to RELAX and not think much. If I want to do that, I adjust the difficulty. Or try a harder way. I highly dislike stuff (like some real time strategy games) that you play on EASY mode and still can't finish the...

WishStone Dragon

*never seen a U6 Silver Serp*

But as it is, you see Dragons and Drakes in U7.... if these are Dragon remains, it would have to be ancient arch-wyrms or something ;D

WishStone Dragon

What's missing, wjp? Or do I run in the danger of being smacked about again if I try to do something?

WishStone Dragon

*got drafted last night* I'm no picasso, but I'll try my best :]

WishStone Dragon

Well, never played the original that far :\ It was so buggy.....

WishStone Dragon

The Balance Serpent (Earth) did show up quite early in the game, even without the Earrings. I rememebr that VERY well, because it gave me the fright of the night... I left Monitor and suddenly the game "froze" and the shadow of a cobra was over everything... and I sadly had my speakers qui...

WishStone Dragon

Hell, even only for DJing on the radio people get teaching. I should know, because my voice has a rather nasty slip in the high areas, I needed to learn to speak lower then I useually would...

WishStone Dragon

Oh hush, bunny, you're just jealous

WishStone Dragon

Don't ask me, I never dared equipping it... I was too scared I or a companion uses it and kills half my party or something

WishStone Dragon

Mind you, in the original I never used Key shortcuts (as I was too lazy to skim the manual for them), but then again, I was young and patient then... or something ;]

WishStone Dragon

*grin* You sound as if you never played U7, perhaps having your own look might help to get a feel for the game. You can avoid "S" if you double click the Avar, then click on the floppy symbol, it opens the save/load menu. Same with B, the spellbook. It is in the Avatars inventory, so you c...

WishStone Dragon

UDIC is the Ultima Dragons Internte Chapter. They once tried to write a game as a gift for Richard Garriot, the carbon copy of the ruler of Britannia in the Ultima games. They called it around the phrases of "Ultima Dragons" or some such (been a while, sorry) and in no time, Electronic Art...

WishStone Dragon

Nope, it won't, Venom, because the Pre Alpha Stuff was linked to NDAs and the likes. Perhaps you don't understand what I am after, I don't want Exult to be in trouble with EA. And EA can be ratehr swift with handing out trouble if they smell something they don't want to happen. UDICs might remember ...

WishStone Dragon

So.... people who want to join you there will need to ... "Aquire" the Pre Alpha UO data. And it's near impossible to buy it. How do you assume that will work then?

WishStone Dragon

Actually, the slowdown makes sense. Unlike in UO where you can outrun everything, in U7 at least you have to fight for it if you want to make a run... uh... or something. It's annoying, yes, specially when you're in a dungeon and whatever the monster is is still a mile down the maze, but it has allw...

WishStone Dragon

Downloading games = Bad!

WishStone Dragon

I never blamed you, I blame my lousy con that constandly disconnects and forces me to use a manager at home ;]

WishStone Dragon

About the downloads of Exult: I had the problem at times that only a partial package or nothing at all would download when I tried to use a download manager (Flashget), so in the end I did everything quite "manually", not waiting for auto-starts on the download. Just fidget about a bit, I'...

WishStone Dragon

Hm, I had no problems talking to the "true" Chaos Hierophant once my quest came to that point, Doc. Indeed, I had to, even though I had two times the scroll that he gave me about the ritual.

WishStone Dragon

I just met the Chaos Hierophant. But not after calling his spirt, no sir. I entered a cave, a little north of the exit to the frozen waste. Some trappers are there and attack you, the cave is filled with junk... and two ghosts that do not attack you wander about. If you talk to them, you'll have a c...

WishStone Dragon

And then:

People who ask about playing U8 need to be dipped an ketsup anyhow... *gets a blip* (Or would that be a blib? Bah, a napkin does the same job...)

*crunches down on the Tyrant*

WishStone Dragon

"That's why you can steal food and then eat it without upsetting your companions."

I seeeeeeeee...

WishStone Dragon

Hm, sounds like a serious bug (and one I didn't experience there) What version of Exult are you running, could you grab a safegame of this and send it to the devs? What SHOULD have happened is that you pay, all sit and Mr Bones brings you over. (Only Problem I had was getting everyone to SIT SIT SII...

WishStone Dragon

Gradilla: I read the "three times so you see the three coloured lighting" in a walkthough and it did in fact _NOT WORK_ :/ My energy globe didn't burst when I left (the first is multi-coloured, the second only green) and when I returned to transform Ale, it would not work, I constandly got...

WishStone Dragon

I had a few problems there was well. As someone else said: Use them ALL a LOT OF TIMES!! You will at one point start to get BLUE lightning and your team will comment that no one mentioned the blue lighting to them. Also, after fiddling a while, the energy globe will burst. When THAT happened, you ha...

WishStone Dragon

The dark forces of EA have more power then you may think, young SB!

WishStone Dragon

Nope, once he left, he is gone for the rest of the game :/ Also a bit stupid the way I lost Dupre in my games so far: He considers it stealing if you loot a dead body (yes, that was a twicer). I had him leave so many times when I opened the backpack of a dead person, found food and doubleclicked it ...

WishStone Dragon

*grins* Rant all you want, I won't realy care. But since the EXULT team is so very strict on fair-play and doing things the way so that nither EA nor OSI won't be after them, I do felt it should be brought up. And if two people in two threads soeab about the RoC violations, I'll post it there. I'm s...

WishStone Dragon

Perhaps so, but THAY hold the ball with which *I* want to play on the shard of Drachenfels. As well as everyone else who plays OSI servers.

They warned you: You break the rule, you're out.

WishStone Dragon

*smirks* And why not? The christian churches robbed left right and center from the heathen to become popular ;] "Oh here is a nice symbol!" "Oh there is a nice holliday!" Mind you, whatever works, other chruches did the same. Headed back to UO: Several things in the "times o...

WishStone Dragon

Thankies wjp!
Wish I knew the piece of magic I did some 6 years ago... Damn getting old ;]

WishStone Dragon

Hey guys (and guyesses ;]) I remember playing around with U7 files when I just got U7 several years back and I could tap the sound files. Back then I picked out a few for giggles. Now I'm old and forgot how I did that. How DO I tap into the soundfiles of U7 again and how can I mine out bits and piec...

WishStone Dragon

Warder: eeep! Illegal Shards!!! ;]
Sorry, playing on a EA-Shard means I shan't dabble with these.

WishStone Dragon

Well, you boys want some plot in UO? How about some PLOTTING against our Liege? Head over to UO stratics... http://boards.stratics.com/php-bin/uo/showflat.php?Cat=3&Board=uoeuropa&Number=4646750&fpart=1&PHPSESSID= Lets see, NO British in Britannia... No Blackthorne, who somehow was a...

WishStone Dragon

(Just to make sure, yes, even though the ISP changed and the country, it's still Wishy here)

WishStone Dragon

Agreed, Candyman. In my guild, I try my best to educate and at least keep Ultima Lore upheld on our role playing board. A friend of mine argues, that because UO is on a shard of the gem (and indeed, as are all servers (shards), that is the reason history developped so totally different. (Sliders, an...

WishStone Dragon

Hm. strange, whenever I tried that, I got 'ported :\

WishStone Dragon

Well, the best discription I found of the whole matter said: "Behind the last teleporter..." now I thought: Okay, lemme see: _LAST_ one would be the one I reach by using all otehr Teleporters, right? I tried, seriously, for a day to get though there and couldn't. I would always step on the...

WishStone Dragon

*chuckles* The new offical way a Dragon should smell? ;D

WishStone Dragon

Well, as a Microsoft-User, I am a burnt child when it comes to "Beta-Versions" or "latest release", as I always fear they screw things up.. :\ Think it'd be "safe"? (BTW: Remind me to write my OWN U7 walkthough, I just managed to solve the damn thing and the Walkthoughs...

WishStone Dragon

Right, forgot, sorry:

I play on win 98 (don't laugh, I use it so I can play other older gams that need DOS still on this PC), Exult 1.o.

WishStone Dragon

(Lets try this again) Well, I had a look around uXo now. Forget the offical page EA seemingly in panic scribed together, it tells you nothing. (Hey, you guys!! Bring out an onlinegame, fine BUT DON'T FORGET A PAGE ABOUT IT SO PEOPLE KNOW!!!) Not having played the game yet, well, it's a new Ultima. P...

WishStone Dragon

(I wrote this for another thread to start with, but compleatly lost myself, so, into a new thread it goes.) *cough* even if I might make myself rather unpopular here: I am an active UO player, nearing my 5th year. I run a very small english guild on Drachenfels (which is hard as hell, as DF is mostl...

WishStone Dragon

Greetings everyone. This be my first posting so be gentle. And if you have to *splut* here, I like cherry with vanilla custard! ;] Right, I don't know if this is an Exult problem, an U7 problem, or PSIFOTM (problem sitting in front of the monitor!!!!). I'm in the stroage room of the to-be-doomed Sag...
