Ultima Online: The Second Age Demo

This is a play through of the demo that came with The Second Age expansion CD way back in 1998. It shows how the game was over 10 years ago.

Re: Publicizing the Server and helping players find us

Is any traffic coming from mmorpg.com and this sig?

If so, maybe others could add the same sig, in other forums too.

Re: Invulnerable Tag

Today I noticed that when you press Ctrl-Shift, it only shows the name and color and no other tags. Of course this feature did not exist back in T2A and in not era accurate, but effectively it's only displaying the name and color information similar to what I recall. So I wonder if at some point thi...

Re: Invulnerable Tag

Something was different during T2A at one point because I used to do this - dress up as an NPC and it worked. I'm sure it wasn't pre-T2A. Even when the tags were added, I recall them not appearing unless All Names was used or the character was clicked on, otherwise you would just see the name. This ...

Re: Invulnerable Tag

A side note, the [tame] tag never used to show up next to the names of pets either. The way to tell a tame pet from a non tamed pet in T2A was simply by the color blue for tame and grey for not.

This also added in the dynamic of naming pets with npc sounding names.

Invulnerability was, but the name tag is not.

However, if both yellow and blue names existed in T2A, then cannot a choice be made for gameplay and aesthetics?

Yellow hued names, some NPCs still blue, 2002: http://boards.powergamers.net/viewthread.php?tid=2402 Apparently no tags: "Yeah if the NPC's name is Yellow hued then they are invul, this is the same for Trammel and Felluca, I dont think there is anyway to get true black sandles anymore." Sh...

Re: Invulnerable Tag

I distinctly remember there being no invulnerable tags. And I was very disappointed when they were added in. At first names were blue, then they were changed to yellow, and then even later the stupid invulnerable tag was displayed next to their names. I believe the tags themselves were not displayed...

Invulnerable Tag

NPCs never used to have the Invulnerable tag. Not only did this result in less clutter on the screen, but it also made NPC names appear the same as players. One fun thing this allowed was being able to disguise oneself like an NPC, by dressing like them. Any way to remove the name tags so they are c...

Re: Digg Second Age - only 4 hours left to Digg!

OK, it's the #1 Digg now in PC games! http://digg.com/news/pc_games/upcoming/most But it is looking doubtful on it going to the front page. We probably need about 60 more Diggs within the next 4 hours for that to happen. It's very possible though, it's just a matter of who sees it and decides to Dig...

Re: Digg Second Age - only 4 hours left to Digg!

Basically the way it works is that a Digg is like a vote for a story, video, image or link. The submissions that get the most Diggs in 24 hours go to the front page of Digg, where they get hundreds of thousands of views. Essentially it's a user submitted news site, where the community votes on what ...
