Whats wrong with this shard???

Post by wgehalo »

PVP
Everything is f'n great except for PVP.
The spell damage delay is ridiculous and horses are much much too fast.
You can't interrupt crap without planning 2 moves in advance, and the only way to kill people is to gank them before they can run 2 screens away on their mount.
Fix these things and I shall return.

I'm sure i'll be banned soon.
It's a shame that my shard is dying. I love everything about UOSA except for mounts and PVP which is a huge part of uo.

whats wrong with this shard is people like you

while i dont like some changes that are made, they are made because they are accurate.... so.. mount speeds and spell delays are accurate... deal with it

and

all mounts are the same speed, so ummmm.. get your own horse and you can run just as fast.. amazing huh

He was advertising another server in another thread. It's been a trend lately. We have guys who pop their head out exactly about one month unseen in game, unheard in forum that start bashing this shard and then saying how they are well established in another and will help out anyone here who wants to defect.

Proper English died in the revolution droogie. Ain't nothin' propa 'ere govna.

Oh my god, you have to plan two moves in advance? WHAT!!?!?!?

You can't spam ebolts and slam people with your spell chan scimmy or cutlass?

Bro your a complete noob, get off our server. Theres no place for you here and as long as your here if i see you i will outright humiliate you and kill you.

And also spell damage delay is in there for a reason. Lets talk theoretically, if you shoot a ball of fire at your target, it does not instantly reach your target. It takes a moment to hit your target.

Two solutions to people being able to run away from you are:

1. Get a better internet connection.

2. Paralyze.

People complain about Paralyze all the time but ITS A SPELL.

Enough said, get off our server.

UOSA's pvp is more fun and UO-like than Divinity could EVER wish to be.

Mounts are fine.

The thread creator is a great example of someone who is brainwashed into thinking UO:gamers is anything like UO after playing it for so long. It's the other way around guy, all of UO:gamer's servers suck because no UO era has ever been like that(whether Hybrid or Divinity ect.)

Mage vs mage is SUPPOSED to be about spell timing and strategy..... not 1 second e bolt cast/insta dmg/spam fests like Divinity.

I used to think mount speed was too fast, but honestly its just how I remember it on Atlantic. I was never able to catch anyone there, and nobody ever caught me. Actually I think the only time I ever caught someone was if they ran into something, like it is here.

The speed is fair though and think of it is this way: if you took away mounts, would you still be able to catch people on foot, or would they still gain distance while you stood still to cast?

I was a dexer on Chessy, and I used to get accused of speed hacking and all sorts of crap, just because a mage or archer was P.O'd that I kept running off screen and back. It's era accurate.
