the recent bannings are good and all but really those activities have very little negative impact on the game aside from the multiboxer's. When are you going to start banning people using 3rd party programs in PvP ?
I would love to see that happen, but I think they have to show a list of programs as approved or not first before the ban hammer drops. Im sure there are some programs they probably don't even know are being used, I could give them a list of stuff that detrimental to the game but who knows if they'll even listen to it. It also hard to decipher the difference between someone on EC and someone on CC using something, since the speed difference is so vast. Equalize the speed between the clients and make it incredibly easy to tell.
Didn't Mesanna say at a M&G that they were looking at other programs that we could use, what ever happened to that. I remember UOA had to be down graded before UO would allow it and now we have the EC with Pinco that is prob. an equal to that other UOA
Ban people for using pinco’s UI?
Little extreme...
it was plastered all over stratics as if it was an approved program.
This is a war that EA/Mythic will never win. They don't have enough people to ban every macroer and they should not try. Every time someone loses, they want to find any excuse why they were owned, and having a macro stop auto attack is not gonna make the difference between someone getting owned or not
I would prefer they concentrate on the player afk pvm'ing, resource harvesting, things like that. I could care less if someone is making recalls, or casting combat training AFK.
As far as I know, people have been using 3rd party programs for the last 15 years without receiving any warnings etc.
So person A reports person B for cheating everyday for 15 years, and nothing happens. Can you really blame person A for deciding to even the playing field?
all you have to do is paralise someone and see how quick the trap box goes off to find the “cheaters”.
i only use uoasist and uocartographer, in fel I am in the minority.
You’d only be left with like 10 classic client players if they banned people. Everyone else left would be EC players as If you use EC you don’t need to speedhack cos it’s inherently faster.
Come on Petra, would be easy enough to find. I’m sure there are logs they can cross reference.
Especially if the character name did happen to be unique.
It would take a lot of effort to frame someone. To begin with, people normally post videos of themselves killing other people. So what you’d have to get whole guilds involved in a re-inactment of being owned by someone...
Are you also a flat earther per chance?
What they should do is to increase the 2d speed to match the enchanted speed, so that everyone can run around at lightening speeds and everyone can recieve "target not seen" errors when casting spells on targets way out of screen.
The enchanted client was made to allow players to add cuztomizable UIs, I dont know if they need to be approved or what, but if it doesnt theres probably many wicked UIs out there with "helping automated" scripts. Just the fact that people jump of horse, dismount jump back on again in a nanosecond looks ridiculous, even if allowed and legal its just a stupid move making pvp less manual and less fun.
UO:assist: why this program that havent been updated for past 10years are still the only legal option to drink a freaking potion in 2dclient is beyond me. we cant all run around doubleclicking potions in2d client (yes i know someone that does that). Theres few features of UOAssist that are useful, just add them to 2d client so we can all skip the 3rd party program in first place.
