UO Dream List

[Aegian Rayth]

This is different than a wish list.

Name some things that you've always wanted to see happen with this game, but that you know never will.

I'll start.


Horse-drawn carriages.

 

[GM_Revinoir]

Metal armors provide more protection than leather armors... Also race choice of orc.

 

[UOHaloran]

Field farming
Armor system rebalanced (perks to using armor that isn't leather/medable)
Bounty system reintroduced along with Forensics being made useful
Cities under faction warfare actually become a stronghold for the faction that owns it and has perks other than buying reagents in mass quantities (mostly a faction system that doesn't blow)
Virtues completed (you know, the thing the Ultima series is entirely based upon)

A few off the top of my head. The armor thing is one that really should have been fixed when AoS launched. I like to think that if something doesn't make sense logically (I know, magic isn't real blah blah) it shouldn't be turned into a game system.

 

[EasyDiablo]

If, by field farming, you mean farming like in Harvest Moon, then yes by god I want this so bad.

I can understand the desire for a greenskinned beasty character, "Human" being the sole choice for race is part of what made me love Ultima Online rather than just like it as I did with many other RPGs.

 

[Eskeshehir]

Metal Armor being worth a damn. I made a killing as a blacksmith nub on OSI. Until AoS...

Spellbook Dye Tubs

Ability to pour pigment charges into bottles

Crops in felluca yield double? And can be pillaged by nefarious villains? By all means.

Perma Death

Perma Death

That would be awesome. You should get your name highlighted in white or something (instead of red or blue) to denote your choice. That way everyone knows you're a true badass.


Other things I want:
Saluting enabled while on a mount
The ability to have your horse rear up and neigh (like in the movies)
Catapults that launch explosion (or conflag) potions 2-3 screens away

 

[Barnicoat]

Don't chargers kind of rear up? Maybe I imagined it, but I was sure they did.

First on my dream list, would be Revelation coming back online *flinches*

Griefers would go way, way, way out of their way to ENSURE you died. Some severity of gank as yet undefined.

 

[Barnicoat]

If you kill a "perma-white", then YOU go perma-white

EDIT: because in doing so, YOU are obviously a complete badass too

 

[EasyDiablo]

Then you got someone who will attack someone's good character with a shitty permadeath character, just to make them defend themselves and go permadeath unwanted.

I'm not saying it's the worst idea I ONLY played Hardcore on Diablo 2. Just playing devil's advocate to get the imaginary system ironed out.

 

[Barnicoat]

Alright, good discussion. We need to figure out these problems before this system comes in.

Maybe you only go permadeath if you initiate the attack. Defending an attack would be fine.

The reasoning being, if a permdeath char attacks you, and LOSES, well then they obviously were not as badass as first thought. So you shouldn't have to pay for their lack of epicness.

 

[psz]

No no

I meant every player. All the time.

(At least in Fel)

 

[EasyDiablo]

Man that's a raw deal. You stay retired.

 

[Barnicoat]

Instead of spawning gold at the end, I want barracoon to spawn para greater dragons. Just once. Also let me get there hidden with a cam recording first

 

[Supercreep]

Let's play really hardcore.

When you die, they ban your IP, and call your ISP to have your internet disconnected.
