Title: What Happens if they ban Easyuo?
Post by: manwinc on February 12, 2010, 08:03:01 PM
I know this is like the 100th time EA Has Talked about looking into 3rd Party Program Detection, But they also brought up that they are looking into fixing the speed hack Problem, which is something NEW and worry's me. It Shows that they are actually getting involved.

So, what do you all think will Happen if they do Start Banning 3rd party programs? I'm 100% Sure that they will lose 50% of their Clients Right off the bat if they Do. I mean Hell I own and Pay for 5 Accounts Personally.


On A Side Note I didn't think the speed hack problem was that bad, I just figured my connection was that bad, but then I started PvP'ing Every day Again. And I run with guildmates who ping Less than 20 and some who even use Cheat Engine. I don't Really Have a problem Keeping up with them, and I can Clearly See their actions on Screen (They run away, they move around that tree, they Approach me etc etc etc.... )

I get out on the field, and I watch as a character goes from being off screen to me being nerve striked, dismounted, and 3 more guys are practically next to me who weren't even on screen. The Speeders are Getting dangerous. (Its a mix of an Asian Speeder and Cheat Engine BTW). Mages Swear it doesn't affect their casting, but i'd beg to Differ. I know people swear Timing Timing Timing, but I run with some damn good mages and I know how fast A Flamestrike should cast, and its just ridiculous what some mages can do. (2nd Flamestrikes landing before the other one has even Dissapeared yet on my Screen)

I have three accounts.  I'll close them all without EUO and never look back.

Well, I might try and sell them first - but I don't know a single player that doesn't use EUO.

I'm a firm believer that our Penguin overloads will assume control in the aftermath.  In the mean time, I really do doubt the UO Powers would be that stupid and pull the rug out from under what little cash cow they have left; especially with their last corporate results.  They know how many people use EUO, and they know what will happen to their bottom line.  It's just that simple.  5th grade mathematics.   Let the vocal minority rattle their little wooden swords.  It won't change the hard, cold reality.  Scripting is here to stay.

Penguins don't like it when you talk about them openly.  They will gut you.

Really.

I have 5 accounts and I agree, if or when they ban EUO, then UO will die......I will close my accounts for sure......EUO helps in many ways......saves all the clicking and arm movement......And all you guys do a Great job providing Scripts for us to use....Love Ya all....Keep up the good work as Long as UO LIVES :)

i also voted penguins as i dont believe it will happen. Every player i have ever met and asked bar 1 has used easyuo.

Its finacial suicise to implement such a policy .. you would think that the punkbuster discussions from yeaster year would have made that that clear.  Harping on about it again is just being annoying.

Personally it would be the push that is needed to remove me from the game and the expense and move onto something else. And im pretty certain that goes for alot of us. If it wasnt for scripting i probably would have quite the game years ago. Suddenly the market will be flooded in super vet accounts for sale.

I already have the script written to run around my houses and unlock every container, and every lock down.  When I leave the game, it will be very quietly.  Suddenly, there will be a few very large open spaces available on Sonoma/Napa/Baja.

First, penguins are already taking over, hence my vote for that. Second, as others have said, EA will lose a TON of accounts. I only run one account and I rarely script completely afk. However, part of me almost wishes I'd get banned so I could finally quit this game and get on with my life  :-\

ROFL for some reason this got me NoBama hehe.

Made me think of the Violent Femmes Intro:

"The violent femmes, they bring all their equipment on the bus. And you
Can't f* with the violent femmes. You cannot f* with this band."

I do believe Cheffe stated around the whole Punkbuster thing that if EA wanted to detect people using EUO they could do so easily. Which means they don't care or have seen how many people actually use EUO and can not afford to lose the player base. I know I would cancel my two accounts. UO is too time intense and item based now for a part time player like myself to try and compete.

Post by: DeadIssue2 on February 13, 2010, 07:05:29 AM
I have 5-8 accts open at any time depending on what month it is. And I agree that without EUO I would be gone just as fast as I could cancel them.

I only use EasyUO for training skills and making supplies. I do all my pots and what not on my mage by hot keys.

And what is this asian speeder? haha

I'm the same way. I use EUO to train skills, get resources for personal use and that's it. No chance in hell I sit here and mine by hand. Train disco by hand? No f'ing way. I'm on day 3 of running a script for 12+ hours a day and I'm not to 120 yet.

Having had to train many skills by hand (lumberjacking) because TT said I had too, I don't know if I would be able to play for a while.

EUO lets me train the skills and get the resources I need so that if I happen to be online, I can join in.

I would have to quit the game until school is over......... :(

If the dev team takes their time on Baja seriously, they'll find out first hand how impossible and dumb certain aspects of their game can be.  Our use of scripting programs such as EUO or even UOA or Razor for that matter, comes from addressing fundamental deficiencies that permeate UO.

The problem is that it takes a while to truly understand all the things wrong, they'll have given up and moved to the next lame under-thought, unfinished expansion.

I'm personally waiting for the next race to come to UO.  I vote penguin!

Just think, being permanently mounted!

you just know its going to be dwarfs...   but i vote pirates
Title: Re: What Happens if they ban Easyuo?
Post by: jtw1984 on February 13, 2010, 06:11:21 PM
I hope its not dwarfs. It would be nice if they could make stuff that pertained to the world of UO. I think the Samurai expansion was a horrible idea. I can live with gargoyles, and yes I can even live with dwarfs. However, I think something as simple as lizardmen or centaurs would be good enough. Then they could use additional resources to make the 2d client a higher resolution and what not.

well i have two accts i play a lot.  I would probably sell everything off except a suit here and there and maybe... just maybe keep one open.  I only stay in the game for coding and friends.

BUT PENGUINS COMES SECOND

Knowing how Ultima works they will probably add mummies and pharoahs. Make Egyptian looking lands.

Something crazy like that. haha

I hope they make a gate that will take about 10 minutes to get you across, but the gate will take you to the lost lands which combines about 3 shards.

That would be the greatest idea ever.

The best thing they could do would be to make a universal gate that instantly transports you between shards

Or even better make it a Star gate !! So you can dial it up and go where ever you want :)

Ahem - if you plan to test that script on Sonoma (just to be ready!), be sure to PM me first!

That's what I've wanted them to do for a while now.  Make it like the time travel teleporter that's in Terminator 2.  You come out in nothing but your skivvies and you endoskeleton.  Possibility of duping = zero.

Indeed, no gear transferred cross shard, only skills and toon names.

I too have 3 accounts and would be done without EUO. My hands are so bad I wouldn't even have a choice.
