#Ultima online shards free#

You can always get the latest launcher and files for absolutely free and use them. The client and all assets for UO are freely distributed because it's a subscription service game. There's a reason it's called Copyright Infringement, not Emulateright Infringement. If not there are many other options!Įmulating is not the same as literal copying. But make that decision for yourself by checking it out, saying hi, and seeing if it melds. If you are looking for a good beginners experience in terms of friendly environment and helpful community that will help you through the oddities that come with an older game like UO, I would recommend UOAlive as it is the community I run and whole heartedly believe in. Ideally though, try a few! Nothing to lose. With those questioned answered it is much easier to lock down a server you will be happy with. So that being said you have to ask yourself a few things.ĭo you tend to solo? Are you more into groups? Do you care about the atmosphere and attitude of those playing around you? That means if a server wants to mimic OSI they can.

So one of the cool loops about UO was it was before a time of IP copyrights in the way they are today so emulation is something that cannot be actioned. They don't know what they're doing anymore. My friend continued playing UO after that and I got to see more comedy involving house contests, art updates, etc. Waste of time.Īnd whoever signed off on revamping Trammel dungeons like Despise was a complete idiot lol. All you get is some clumsy dungeon to wander through, pointless villages, dinosaurs that are a pain to kill and drop less loot than a random locked box in a dungeon.

How do you mess up time travel and dinosaurs? How. They managed to botch marrying two good Ultima games into an expansion pack. That lady doesn't deserve to be in charge of UO.Īlso Time of Legends was just bad. I ended up doing a chargeback for 2 years with of UO subs through my bank, and succeeded. Her attitude for such a basic customer service issue was pathetic. Bonnie is a terrible person, and it is a complete shame the game was handed off to her. I let them know, and they still didn't do anything. They will activate, process the race change, but don't actually change you. If you're in Vampire Form, they don't work. It turns out, the tokens were (and are probably still) bugged. So their solution was to just spend more money and hope it works. Their GMs are mostly idiots, and go 'jee I dunno, try buying another one. What's up? Can you just manually turn me into an Elf? I contact them, open a ticket, and say hey, the token didn't work. So, that costs real money, right? Maybe not alot in the grand scheme of things, but I still didn't get the thing I paid for. Their customer service is awful.įor example, I bought race change tokens that didn't work, but were used up anyways. Home hot new topīumping to say no, the official shards are awful mostly because Bonnie, the head of the slowmotion planecrash that is whatever UO is now, is a terrible person.
