There was a 7of7 but it was 6 seconds long, so I deleted it. This has been mentioned on several stratics threads.

I would totally start playing again on a pre aos REAL server.

dec '99 - jan '08 - [FL] pacific

[GeraldWatercrest]

Completely agreed. Sadly, that type of "dog eat dog" worldset will never be used again, as WoW determines what is marketable within an MMO context.

Uo was like life... you can commite robbery in the city, kill anywhere.

There was soooo much role play...

Ea has only one power... to kill games.

Look at Command and conquer too.

[PowerSeer666]

there are a few "unofficial" servers that have gameplay like the classic uo like you guys describe and some of them actually have a good amount of players... but the problem I've noticed with these servers is something doesnt feel "right" about them, even though they have the same rules as old uo and everything it still doesnt feel "authentic" its hard to explain... So yeah I know what you guys mean they should make a oldschool "official" server... id start playing again.

Back in the like 1997-2000 or so I had SO MUCH fun with this game omg... EA fucking RUINED it... But seriously those 3 years are the best three years I've had had with games (obviously not the best years of life, that would be the past few years after I've got married, but they were the best GAMING years of my life).. It was so fucking fun back then pking and pvping and being able to do WHATEVER YOU WANTED IN THE GAME without millions of rules and stupidass trammel... god i miss it!

[Viktoriuzs]

agree

[lejink]

i agree, not knowing if u were about to get mugged outside of town kept u on the edge of ur seat!

ur never really worried about any ai creatures. its the other players u were somewhat nervous around. u were forced to make gangs, strength in numbers kinda thing. buying homes was sweet too, the whole buying system was pretty cool on uo. i have a lot of good memorys from that game, iv never seen a game come close since. people cry over stupid shit now n ruin the game

[TheMortifiedDruids]

EA Games and SOE = The Ultimate Game Ruiners.

UO was the best game ever back from 98 - 2001. After wards, they nerfed the game. Running from murderers was the best! If they want the best MMORPG on the market, all they have to do is make a server with the original rules set and that new engine.

I'd play it again if they did that, it beat the hell out of EQ and WoW.
