Ultima Online Vets - See how bad it is now for free

[avec]

Do you remember pvping on 56k then some 1337 Swedish guy on a 10ms pinging connection would burst onto the scene and just murder everyone at once.... You couldn't even keep up with them on a horse.

Remember LiGhT?

He had early cable and was incredibly annoying with his LPB status. In fact, I believe quite a few of the old 6I6 were LPB's.

As for the death of UO, it's actual death began the first expansion after AoS.

AoS was the last thing that was produced before EA relocated their Texas HQ to California. AoS itself actually boosted subscribers and gave UO life for another year or so even if it was in a item dependent state, the PvP was actually still rather fun.

Once the move happened and new people took over at the design helm the game went downhill rapidly.

Heh, weird seeing other people post that. Me, Soul and all the other PKHQ guys still post together on a different forum. Very good, fun days.

Most of 6i6 were LPB, yeah. In pub16 they were all 6x120 and LPB's, and all ranted on about how l33t they were. Still though, didn't bother me as I ran with them

Like someone else said, a lot of my time in UO was actually spent programming stuff in EasyUO. I found powergaming as fun as pvp'ing, working out new training techniques, gold making techniques etc. Anyone remember the Carto Script?
