A Note on Ultima Forever’s Status
WtF Dragon February 5, 2014 Ultima Forever
Those of you who are following — or playing — Ultima Forever have probably noticed that things have been a bit…quiet on that front of late. Not that the game itself has gone particularly quiet; I still see plenty of other players when I log in, at least. But some users have been struggling with a persistent login bug, and the official forums have become deathly quiet in recent weeks. Notably, Mythic’s Gene Makely hasn’t posted anything there in quite some time, whereas he was once a regular and consistent fixture of that community.
I was able to reach out to (and get in touch with) a couple people at Mythic, and the reply I got back from both was basically the same: Ultima Forever has not been forgotten, but pretty much all priority has been given to Dungeon Keeper in recent weeks.
In fact, if you peruse the credit lists for the two games, there’s more than a little bit of overlap. Additionally, Dungeon Keeper went from soft launch to global release last week. This, I think, more than accounts for the recent silence…especially since the good Mr. Makely is handling community for that game as well!
(And yes, that’s an issue; one community person really can’t be expected to be able to handle the forums and other online fan presences for two separate multiplayer games, especially when one of these features a PvP element.)
I hope I’m not saying more than I reasonably should by also stating that I have it on record from two different people at Mythic that a new update is in the submissions pipeline right now…which could well mean we see it soon enough this month, assuming it doesn’t get sent back at any point.
I wonder if any of the people who worked in the original DK are upsed by this.
Obviously, the games' graphics look horrible today, considering that the high-res screen resolution back then was only 640x480.

It's almost like they have no idea about the game they're talking about and don't even know that you can increase resolution by pressing alt + R, but of course it's impossible since they're game journalists.Obviously, the games' graphics look horrible today, considering that the high-res screen resolution back then was only 640x480.

I also remember there was a 3dfx patch for DK1, though I don't remember much how it looked in use, probably blurry as hell.

Speaking of best value and that most popular. Now, best value would be obvious to anyone that it's been there from the start of the game, but I'll bet my dick the most popular tag was there hard coded as well. Most popular... riiight. Game is just released, first player ever sees "most popular",

I'm sorry.
But should I call it Afro-American Comedy, Afro-European Comedy or Afro-Polish Comedy? Does country of origin matter in this case?
