UO Second Age

Fix the LOS exploit

If there is anything that should pass as "non accurate but its ok" it is this.

The tower/keep/castle LOS bug is mechanically accurate but at the same time is it not in the spirit of T2A. This sort of thing never really happened in era and would be seen as a insta ban if anyone was caught doing it.

Duping gold was era accurate yet not in the spirit of T2A.... The LOS bug in my opinion should be in the same category here.

Lets get rid of this silly bug. +1 mens.

lets make towers, keeps, and castles great again. Get rid of this housekill feature.

bump

I don't even own a house that is affected, but it should be fixed.

The thing is... griefers hardly exist now

Because there's a shortage of people to grief, Capitalist

Kaivan is gone, time to make UOSA great again.

I will come back if LOS bug is fixed.


Oh and BRING BACK DERRICK.

It's good that you think you're so important, because no one else is going to do it for you.

It would be nice if they fixed the bug. One of the main reasons people play is to accumulate wealth & houses are a big part of that. Making the best houses next to useless doesn't help our playerbase.

I love this shards dedication to era accuracy but sometimes it needs to give way to peoples enjoyment of the game.

Don't know if I'd play more because of this change but the change would be a huge improvement for the server.

Having horrible bugs for the sake of accuracy doesn't do anything but make everyone miserable for literally no reason.

"Because it's era accurate" isn't a good enough reason to keep a bug of this magnitude.

Onslaught has spoken, lock the thread and make the change.

i couldn't agree more. Era accurate or not it should be fixed. There is plenty here that is completely subjective to what has been defined as "era accurate". It's pretty dang close and probably the best we will get but it would still be nice to patch out this bug. They didn't leave in the duping bugs... That's era accurate? Since this only allows people to create more wealth and not grief players it's ok? Just saying...

No matter what still enjoy the players and server. Glad they spent the time to make and keep it going.

UO is an MMORPG. There is zero entertainment or accuracy to playing it alone because nobody wants to play.

i.e. fix it and bring them back

With a certain not to be mentioned staff person whose name I refuse to utter gone, the decision is probably up to Derrick.....and I know he has said before he likes accuracy over population #'s.

My continued argument is: you never saw this or knew about it in era. So TRUE era accuracy would be to remove it or find a way to make the larger houses safer again. It is an exploit essentially that was never seen in era.

IF IT EXISTED, you surely would have seen it used. Its total lack of reference or use by the most evil, PK'ing and all round assholes of the era should speak volumes:

Never referenced here: http://www.wtfman.com/

Or here: http://www.wtfman.com/jov/

Or here: http://www.wtfman.com/oldjov/stories/stories.htm

Here: http://www.wtfman.com/mcd/main.htm

Or here: http://www.wtfman.com/uoevil/

Should be all the evidence needed to prove once and for all it never existed or was used in era.

LOS IS MY FAVORITE FEATURE.

LOVE YOU DERRICK
