2nd age intro...we'll probably see it in a year or so...

Liza
10-11-2012

is that an improvement to current game's mechanics or it is new game and we have to start all over agian?

Holfina

Steward

GAMA will be around by the time 2nd age is here, we aren't going anywhere.

Francine
03-08-2013

It won't be around if the player base keeps declining the way it is doing. Players are quitting by the bus load and all KOEI can do about it is introduce more trash boxes. lol

Sylvia
03-08-2013

We are ok with NM/CJ introducing TBox, we know this game needs money to survive, we're supportive and will keep remaining in this game and we believe a lot of new players will join too. Haters can just leave and stop spreading rumors. Truth is, this game has been around for more than 2 years despite haters that keep hating.

Hans
03-08-2013

hmm seems to me more and more are playing the game every day

GAMA

Please do your part for the UWO community. Help 2 noobs everyday and that does not mean giving money. Help as in helping them to achieve their goal, for instance levelling,completing quest or learning how to battle. Your effort will help the UWO community grow and ultimately benefit yourself too in the long run. Thank you for being civil-minded! Enjoy the game!

Cheers,
GAMA

Sakura

Well said, though i doubt you're the real GAMA, GMs wont post here

Sonia
04-30-2013

and theres this voting system for roman king. new npc country coming up like Genoa and Sweden.

Laurencio
04-30-2013

@GAMA Noob is a rude word to describe new players. You can call them newbies, newbs, rookies, etc. Noob is a person without skill, the noob can have a high level character but he/she lacks the skills to play properly or have a good performance in the game. This is the case of the moder UWO, where everybody have a NC ship and have no skill, those players compensates the lack of skill or lackluster skills with big guns and big ships that the IRL money can buy because they dont have the ability to do a good performance in battle.

What we can say about that trailer is two things:

1. We will continue using ships with sails.

2. We will be related somehow with a future timeline, but we aren´t going to use present time ships, weapons, trade goods etc. Maybe the new expansion will tell about how we (in te current era and timelines) we affect the future directly.

Erda
04-30-2013

Its Genoan Republic and Holy Roman Empire (not Sweden).

Igor

Isn't it the 3rd year anniversary of GAMA server? How come I haven't heard of any special event or x2 exp/skill or 2x rate of nc ships in tbox or just anything seems so quiet nowadays?

Francine
10-07-2013

If you realize from the intro, we in GAMA server need one special girl that shown from the video to kiss a special book for active the 2nd age..

When she will kiss the book? no one knows, and the time may be near future.. but we've already knew what will happen in the future..

When the the time come, UWO team notice about the 2nd age update, that mean that special girl just kiss the special book for us all..

maybe that special girl still kid at this time, when she grow up she will kiss the book

Theo
10-09-2013

Agreed!!

NetMarble CEO
10-13-2013

Its official I'm very sad to announce that we will be closing Uncharted Waters Online GAMA server on February 28th 2014.

We came to this conclusion due to the fact many players have left due to our decision to add God canons and weapons and to leave dungeons and ESBT unregulated.

We don't have the time, patience or the resources to correct the issues so as our player base declines, NC sales drastically are decreasing and player satisfaction is at an all time low we have decided that we can get more money by selling as much NC as we can then closing GAMA.

We are very sorry but NetMarble is a business with one goal to make money not cater to the players wishes. We will find a new game to buy and hopefully the ex UWO players can play and spend money on that game.

Lena
10-13-2013

Torll wahaha

Sonia
10-13-2013

"God canons" you even spelled cannons wrong. They wouldn't use God as well; rather, they'll use over-powered or more proffesional word.
In addition, if their goals is to gain more NC then why don't they add more treasure-boxes?
All your reasons are invalid and as such, qualified as a troll comment.
Move along people

Junchul
10-13-2013

Definitely a troll but I can see this message GAMA is closing probably after they have sucked us dry with BS Treasureboxes and when people stop buying Ditch the server they are showing the behavior of every failing company the writing is on the wall

George
10-13-2013

enough with the pathetic doom saying, youre not happy, then leave, dont try dragging the game down with your own sad life.

James Bond
10-13-2013

Tomorrow Never Dies! The game will never die!

The "Doomsday" rumor has been around for a long time, yet, the game is still around!

Japan server has been operating for 10 years!

This is the world - GAMA, a global server, think logic, think positive :)

Miyo
11-19-2013

when opening launcher there is a prompt to transfer, would doing so now mean I cant play until transfer?

You can still play on your current account. i already did the transfer and aim still playing using gpotato.

Apparantly OGPlanet will not commit to not doing a total server whipe. Or honoring our Shared Storage, or any NC we may have this means that we could loose everything we have all worked for, and our Company and its Status they will not state that we will not loose everything leaves me with much doubt.

Sonia
11-22-2013

A GM from OGP posted on that. Two words: "No wipe" :D

Laurencio
11-22-2013

It don’t matter if a GM posted it or not the fact remains the game is dead . its been sold coz there is no money in it. As soon and the poor smucks that bought it figure it out ( 6 months or so) the game gets canceled

Sylvia
11-22-2013

your moms dead

Erda
11-22-2013

The game is not dead its just sick IF they implement the changes that alot of the vets posted in their forums it will come back to life however if they do not...then yes it will be dead I know I wont return even if 2nd age is released

Chester
11-22-2013

What veterans of the GAMA server??? You mean players like -Ezio_Auditore-. He's not a veteran of UWO. I never seen him playing in closed beta and i certainly did'nt see him playing in the first year of open beta either. The guy is a joke just like most of the other players that call themselves veterans that wer'nt here when UWO first appeared for the international market.

For those who are dreaming or making lies about GAMA server wipe, shut the hell up. The only thing that will get wiped is your sorry ass.

Xiao Wei
11-22-2013

First of all Chester, Ezio might not be a veteran in your unknown persona --who knows, you might be a new player-- but he is trying to help UWO, albeit his piracy insight is faulty. Furthermore, other players guiding the game in the forums are well known. You don't need to be a vet to help yhe game; all you need is support and the right intention.
AislynRistahl? Battousai? Need i say more?
And leave the game if you want cowards, but don't spread false rumors.
I, DeusLoVolt, will help the players continue to further our interests to the game; that is, longevity.
Long live UWO.
If you're with me, then do not listen to those fools. Trust on UWO and help the game strive for greatness!

Hernan
11-22-2013

Just to clear things up for you guys ALMOST ALL NETMARBLE GAMES are shutting down. Arcane Saga gone, District 187 gone,UWO sold the reason UWO was sold and not shutdown is coz it is making money it’s the only game they had that was. far as I can tell only the oriental games they have will remain so STFU

Theo
11-22-2013

Yeah I've been playing UWO for about 2.5 years and I only can remember that condensing nitwit Ezio being around for maybe the last year or so. He doesn't even really play. He just parks in Calicut and tells world chat what a great player he is.

Mei Hua

Seville is empty because of the 2x Event, just like it's been empty during every other 2x Event. Moron.

Meng Meng
11-26-2013

lol of course this site is staying up. are you stupid? This isn't a gama only site. its a site made for all the servers of UWO with sections for their respective servers/countries. Of course this site should be staying up

Savvia's New Scam
11-29-2013

New Publisher same scam:Savvia aka Zachary Ren aka UWORESERVEBANK

Savvia's scheme is to pretend to be rolegold because URB reputation is completely ruined

The real rolegold email is rolegold@hotmail.com
The Fake rolegold email aka Savvia pretending is rolegolduwo@gmail.com

If you buy from him he will try to give you a fake ship or try to get your account info and steal all your items or get you a virus from going to his uworeservebank site

If you sell to him he will withdraw the funds on the account leaving you MONEYLESS and SHIPLESS.

If he cant get you he wil post all your info in the forum and try to get you banned by OGP

Zachary Ren is the same old scammer from when netmarble ran the game don't fall for this scam. The GM'S already deleted all his ships but now he trying to make a comeback dont let him. Report him immediately to OGO With screenshots or he will scam you

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Jean
11-29-2013

100 astros = 5 dolars i think there are discounts if you buy more, some items are cheaper than before while others seem equivalent , you better check them

Sylvia

Anyone get the feeling that og is going to be the same as nm?

Korian
11-29-2013

I dont know where you get 100 astros for 5$ when i went to check prices it was 20$ plus tax for 300 which makes everything 15 to 30% more expensive

Ming Mei
11-29-2013

If they nerf esbt to curb inflation I wouldn't mind if they charged more

Cornelia

it says so when i want to buy , 100($5.00), 200 ($10.00) , 400 ($20.00) ,1000 ($50.00) , 2000 ($100) , the last three will give you a discount coupon for the second purchase.

Korian
11-29-2013

Hmm idk,, those arent the numbers its showing me,, wonder if it has to do with method of payment as im using ultimate cards?

Claudia
11-29-2013

Uwo reserve bank you numbskull we already know GM Annaliese deleted all your ships before the migration due to your scamming! You have no ships or characters for sale you dumb fuck lol XD

Why don't you go play EvE its a scammers paradise plus people won't know you there

Might be a good start there but here we know allllllllllll about you savvia you scamming retard LMAO

Korian
11-29-2013

Note,,yes payment method affects the amount you get and since i use the ultimate game card and not a credit card,,i guess im done,, not going to lose 25% on my purchases for using a valid payment form,

11-29-2013

He has been caught already impersonating GM's and asking players for boats.

Also people who have sold him boats he has withdrawn the money and the poor scammed victim ends up with no ship or money

AND people that try to buy boats he tries to trick you into giving your account info so he can login and steal all your boats

This has been what he has been doing for years dont get scammed also his website has virus that steal passwords

SaulCaine supports URB and Scamming. He recently gave Barto a name change and aprhodite mirror to join Elysium company as part of a bribery to make Elysium a maritime relevant company. This plan blew up in his face after Barto's usual ways got the best of him resulting in him "borrowing" a ship and "mistakenly sold to shipmaster".

Saulcaine now in an attempt to save face is desperately trying to throw any other controversial topic in the way to block his shady behavior from being known through out GAMA.

When you have enough clues, you can take the quest. But if you don't have required skills (language included) when you can not take the quest.

how can i defect to the holy roman empire?

Shinee
01-26-2014

There are plenty of info available on jap wiki page and u can read up after translating.

Just a simple guide of the points for sharing, based on what I learned thus far.

1. Themes and general idea

This new game play is not for non-serious adventurers because the quests can only be performed if the char himself fulfils all the skill requirements. It is unlike normal adv quests and maps where only one fleet member needs to fulfil the requirement.

Each theme can have 1-3 relics to be found. Themes change with the period the game is in and there are special themes that only occurs based on selected historical events in play at the moment. Shining Hill is one such example now.

To find the relic, you must gather clues. Clues are ranked by stars and you can synthesise 2 types into potentially a higher ranked clue.

Higher rank clues can be "used" to obtain a corresponding Adv quest, once a day. Some of these quests are normal adv quests available from adv guilds while some are special quests associated to the relic storyline. In the case of the normal adv quest, you must fulfil the quest chain requirements on top of the skill requirements in order to undertake the quest from the clue.

You need to have a clue of suitable rank before u can obtain the Quest to discover the relic. Most relic quests are at the 15-stars Clue but some are known to be at 19 or even 20 stars. Fairytale theme has both relics at 15 stars, Hidden Hero is at 15 as well, Shining Hill has one at 15 stars and one at 19 stars.

2. Synthesising clues (or combining)

When synthesizing, you choose 2 clues of different types, one at a time. The first is like the main clue u wish to improve, the second is the ingredient u wish to consume in the process.

The outcome is either a success or a fail. If you fail, u lose all the clues u have chosen as the ingredient but you do not lose the main clue. If you succeed, u will gain a higher ranked clue. How much improvement you get depends on your ingredient. While i do not know the specific formula for it, a general rule of thumb i follow is to use at least 4x quantity of a clue for every level it is lower.

For example, if i am improving a 10 star clue, i will use at least 4x 9 stars clue as ingredient, 8x 8 star clues. or 12x 7 star clues.

3. How to get good clues

You get clues for almost everything u do in game. But the best method i found thus far is Archive and Reporting Discovery.

Using the Archives gives you a good amount of clues every time but to get high rank clues u need to have a high rank in any appraisal skills.

One important thing to note is that you only gain clues as high as the highest ranked clue you currently possess for the theme. Meaning, if your highest clue now is an 8-star clue, you will only get clues 8 stars and below.

Reporting discovery on the other hand, always gives the highest rank clues you can get. I usually reserve this method for clues above rank 12 where they are not common from archives.

Cornelia
01-27-2014

thanks a lot shinee for the info and yeah that fusing info is correct at least from what i have tried you can also use 2r10 and 2r9 to get a r11 but i dont think that is as cost-effective as your method

Hans
01-27-2014

That info is very helpful, however i do have a few questions.

Mentioned:
"reading archives gives clues, higher skill rank the higher the clue rank".
- If i browse Art with rank 16 and up, i can get r10 clues, is that correct?

Mentioned that:
"Some of these quests are normal adv quests available from adv guilds while some are special quests associated to the relic storyline"
- How to know if that quest is normal or for special?

Shinee
01-27-2014

@Cornelia Thanks. :)

@Hans
I read before in another guide that there is a rough idea on the correlation between skills rank vs clues rank. I have not had the time to test it out but so far reading with r15> skills I have gotten r11 clues as well though not common. I think it is fairly common for 7/8/9/10 stars clues if you can hit r14 and above though.

I will normally just type in the quest name from the clues here and see if it can be found on another adv guild. For example, the r13 shipwreck clue for TREASURE LEGENDS yields the quest "Treasure of seven colours" which is available in latin America adv guild. The R14 clue from HIDDEN HERO is actually the durandal quest available in Europe.

The info I cite is not complete and the full info is available on the jap wiki including a much better synthesize table. Do visit it if you want to cut down on some time wasting and hopefully add on here if possible.

Having said that, do spend some time exploring the unknown which is partly why we are doing adv in the first place. Cheers.

You're welcome to your opinions, but they have nothing to do with adding information to this database, nor do they hold up well to scrutiny, given the vast differences between GAMA's FTP model versus the subscription-based options Asian players have to utilize. If you truly desire to discuss this at length, please repost this to the UWO forums -- here, it is nothing more than spam.

Hmm. An upcoming maintenance patch on 12/17 (this Wednesday) marks the arrival of "EP07 Sea of the Midnight Sun". I -think- this means that, among other things, all current level caps will be raised to 77, in preparation for Gran Atlas.

I've Noticed with 2nd Age some ports get additional trade goods depending on the century (World Clock) and was wondering if these were:
1. Only for European ports?
2. Dependent on Period as well as Century?

Guilder
01-18-2015

1. Yes, when it comes to new trade goods, item shop goodies, and production recipes, European ports are the only ones affected by World Clock.
2. Period and century both matter. What's available in period 1 of Century X, may not be available in period 2 of Century X.

If you're interested, there is a complete list of World Clock items/trade goods listed by port cities, right here:

gvo.gamedb.info/wiki/?WorldClock/item

It's in Japanese, so be sure to run it through a translator. Unless you -read- Japanese, of course.

Not much added as I expected, not counting the new sailors bottle and new astros shop additions. The Japanese site mentions "A large number of NPC fleet emerging in the Caribbean zone.

Guilder

It seems odd that there would be new quests and aides, but not the NPC Fleets as well. More likely, the linked article is just a small sample of what we can expect, and those fleets will be explained in a separate news post focused entirely on the update, or it's being left as a 'surprise' to 'discover' in-game. We'll know more by tomorrow, I suppose.

Interesting that it appears that OGplanet has combined the mini update "Pacific Ocean" (that comes out between Chapters 3 and 4 on the Japanese server) into this one. I noticed because the new EA dungeon gimmicks and the new maps/discoveries were for that update and not this one. Not that im complaining mind you, but it seems kinda strange...

Guilder
10-22-2015

I was a bit surprised by that myself. Could be they want to get Chapter 4: Ancient Glory out before the end of the year, so GAMA can catch up a little bit closer to the Atlantis expansion? Now I wonder if the assorted Pacific Ocean update goodies are also available (there was a new Steward quest, IIRC) as well.

BIakeC
10-22-2015

Either that's something for us to find for ourselves, or maybe their saving it for Chapter 4. I also noticed Ogplanet didn't mention the new easier weapon finesse gain and the new ships that were supposed to get as well. I hope they didnt skip that for us.

Guilder
10-22-2015

They didn't expressly mention the new NPC fleets in the last update, either. It is a game of discovery, after all... and half the fun of discovering things is in sharing that knowledge with others so they can enjoy it, too. Cheers, and many rich gold strikes to you all.

Guilder
10-23-2015

Something useful for data entry folks like me: the recent patch added a button under our collected discoveries called "Quest Information". Click it, and you can see all the quest steps/dialog bubbles/Chrono era titles if applicable/ducats reward, etc., at any time. That makes it very easy to update quest data here on the DB, at least where it's possible to do so.

And I don't believe you need any specific amount of recorded discoveries to access this feature (the website mentioned having 1500+, but it was an example, not a requirement). Happy quest updating, if that's your thing.

Owww... just a friendly warning, those Armed Merchant Fleets by California are AGGRESSIVE, and not at all friendly or willing to let you pass by like most merchant fleets I've encountered. Eh, time to hitch a ride back to town by way of sea turtle...

mois
10-24-2015

When heading to San Fransico for the first time (with the quest), passing through the usually peaceful Armed Merchant ships should not provoke their attacks but the Gran Flyut Armed Merchants ain't friendly. Was taken by surprise they attempted to assail head on. Best to avoid them as much as possible. Good fleets for maritimers to grind on.

The Cold Sea Fish memorial album also needs the following fish:

- smelt (all over the northEAST passage - the previous one!)
- eelpout (east Kara sea around 4540 610)
- king salmon (west Bering sea around 7983 2416)
- .....the last one I don't know

All three have been around since a few patches ago, but it seems you have to catch them again to have them registered in the memo album.

The reward for the album is a guardian's gloves which you can alternatively collect from Mercator by charting the Red Sea, but completeness freaks may also want to do the album, regardless.

BIakeC

Although the OGP website says you need to have charted Ligurian Sea to make the San Francisco discovery quest appear, I haven't done that yet, and got the quest just fine with 10k+ adventure fame and the EA/W. North American port permits.

Guilder
10-29-2015

Confirmed, V_I. My casting buddy only ever charted North Sea, and he got the SF discovery quest without any difficulty once Mercator had given him the West North American port permit. I'd bet charting the Ligurian Sea is important to continuing the story quest chain, though.

On a completely different note, I saw a notice on the gvo.gamedb.info/wiki techs page that suggested it's now easier to gain finesse points from weapon tech chains in land/dungeon battles. Has anybody noticed if that's the case so far?

To update a previous post of mine: the

However, if I'm reading a translated wiki correctly, that very quest won't be available until after Chapter 4: Ancient Glory is released in the future... wish I'd known that before I spent QMPs looking for it. That aside, the 4-star difficulty quest will come from London's Merchant Mediator, and its steps are as follows (via google translation):

1. London tavern craftsman × 4
2. San Francisco tavern master × 4
3. San Francisco tavern master

Chapter 4: Ancient Glory is coming this week. With it, comes a new Chrono title: "BC". Of course, that'll mean new items/trade goods, new Quarters recipes, a new Treasure Hunt theme, possibly more. In anticipation of that:

tinyurl.com/UWO-BC

That link should take you to a Japanese-to-English translated list of all BC-era Chrono quests in UWO. Some of them already exist in the game at present (just, obviously, without the Chrono title attached), others will be added in Chapter 4, and beyond. Hopefully, this will be of help to at least some of you. If I could play right now, I'd probably complete one of those quests up right before the big update, then report it after the expansion's release. Might or might not work in giving one the title right away, but it's worth considering.

Cheers all, and have a great online voyage.

Eh, it's the "Cylinder of Nebuchadnezzar II" accessory. Gives +1 to Archaeology, Biology, and Ecological Research, needs 5k fame to equip, and has thirty five durability, with no effect. While it sadly isn't recorded in a Memorial Album (yet...?), the so-called 'Garden in the Desert' where you find the relic at, more than makes up for that! I wish I could set it as my home port or quarters, haha.

I haven't moved on to the second relic of the TH yet, but its third skill requirement of R9 Astronomy will probably mean anybody who hasn't gotten the Astronomy job unlocked yet can't accept that relic hunt quest anyway.

My alternate was able to pull the horse pet quest with between three to six QMPs, 13k trade fame, and no Merchant Graduate title equipped, nor either English or American language skills.

Welcome. You can have most questions answered in-game on one of the three School chat rooms, which can be switched manually at any Beginner Academy's instructor NPCs. That said:

Blue quests are called "Chrono Quests". The first time you accept one, the game gives you the option of having a brief tutorial; in essence, the completion of Chrono quests rewards you with a title to access content in the game which might not be available ordinarily. That is the only difference between red and blue quests.

The numbers on a quest, meanwhile, indicated by an equivalent number of stars, represents its "difficulty" level. One star is the lowest and easiest difficulty, while ten stars represents the highest level of difficulty. Most quests can be done in any order you choose; some do unlock others as part of a sequence of quest chains, but their numbers have nothing to do with it.

There is much more to be learned, but you needn't try to take it all in at once. Be sure to consult the OGP forums' section on player-written guides for additional resources to help get you started. And may your time in the game be an enjoyable one.

which new skills will be available to refine after this update? :)

BIakeC
05-01-2016

From what I read, it seems that wont actually happen until Chapter 2 of Atlantis, but many new skills will be available to refine when that does happen:

Accounts - The upper haggle limit is increased (unsure by how much though)

Body Language - After a successful use, you don't need to use it again while still in the same town
All production skills ( Cooking

Cooking, etc)- When getting a great success during production, you use less materials

Steering - Boosts cannon evade of figureheads, and decrease damage from ship collisions

Accuracy - Increase bullet speed

Ballistics - Increase cannon range

Penetration - Increase the chance of abnormal effects caused by cannon damage (unsure what they mean by this, but I think it increases the chance of for example Special smoke bomb cancelling skills)

Reloading - Increase loading speed temporarily
Rescue

Rescue - Increases the number of sailors caught during sea battle (maximum limit is not raised).
All adventure appraisal skills (

Archaeology, etc) - Decreases the likelihood of getting a headache while browsing at archive and number of fame gained from quest discovery report is raised.
Trap

Trap - Raises the spread-range of each Trap tech during the land battle.
Rowing

Rowing - Maximum shipspeed and acceleration of row ships are raised (unsure by how much though) and losing speed from extreme turns is decreased.

Just have to wait a little bit longer for that...

To access the upcoming "Endless Dungeon" (will release on 5/12/2016), the Labyrinth of King Minos, certain steps will be required. Completely charting West Candia and Inland Crete (accessible only after having completed

Legend of the Labyrinthos quest) is the first, most vital step. The second step depends largely on you, as there are three possible ways to continue. According to Google Translate:

"The land of the king of legend" (gvdb.mydns.jp/db/module/QuestDB/action/QuestShow?id=5395)
Path #1; comes from Stockholm's Adventure Mediator. Requires having discovered

Legend of the Labyrinthos -- if you haven't started the torturously long but highly satisfying Xanadu chain, this is the quest to look for.

"The land of the king of legend" (gvdb.mydns.jp/db/module/QuestDB/action/QuestShow?id=5395)
Path #2; comes from Amsterdam's Adventure Guild. Requires having discovered

Legend of the Labyrinthos and

Siberian Husky -- in other words, this is for thos who've found Knossus, and gotten at least partway through Xanadu.

"The land of the king of legend" (gvdb.mydns.jp/db/module/QuestDB/action/QuestShow?id=4958)
Path #3; comes from London's Adventure Guild. Requires having completed the entire Xanadu chain. Perhaps to honor that accomplishment, you don't seem to need the Knossus Palace discovery, which the other two paths do.

Hope that helps. If in my research I've made any errors, my apologies; feel free to point them out as needed. Cheers, and great voyaging online.

Bael

Just some quests and maps, 2 Land Chartting map rewards and 6 archive maps, 23? quests, 8? maps, and I'm not sure if the fish discovery by fishing on Tyrrhenian Sea will be released now or it was already added before.

BIakeC
06-23-2016

According to the Japanese Wiki:

- New quests and discoveries will be added that, as you might have guessed, will be focused primly around the Mediterranean Sea.

- Investment rewards will be added to ports that previously didn't have them.

- Skill cap for Astronomy and Alchemy will be raised to R15.

- A few new recipes for Alchemy and new discoveries for Astronomy that will require R10+ will be added to help assist in raising the rank beyond R10.

- New items for newbie players attending school.

- A change to the Tow and Logout feature (not sure what they mean, but I assume it will shorten the time to get to another port when using the Tow and logout feature. I could be wrong though).

- New award chests will be added in the Colosseum in Rome.

While disappointing to hear, it's hardly surprising. KOEI has nothing to gain from letting us acquire AVRs that easily. I've expected AVRs would not be put into the game as investment rewards for months now; I -was- expecting a substitution reward as opposed to nothing at all, but perhaps nothing really seemed worthwhile enough to take the AVR's place.

On the other hand, plenty of other interesting new content to enjoy, including the next Atlantis story quest:

Try here:

They're in their respective adv/trade/battle categories, I believe.

So according to the website, Windjammer's level reqs are 65/75/30. Vertical sails 235, horizontal sails 355, wave resistance 10, durability 760, cargo 818. Idk what panel it's made with. Also Google translate doesn't do a good enough job for me to find the other two ships but at least there's that :P

Windjammer is by default made of iron, so we need to use SSIR. Really disappointing.

Could be because when Japan got this update, they only got two ships: Windjammer, and Real. Bucentaur's... different. Interesting. This requires further research.

There is Modified Bucentaur in the bottle, probably with same stats as FS one just lower requirements and 8 mods. Looks terribly slow but no slower than LA's. Nice armor for a rower (38).

JUST WANT TO KNOW WHERE I CAN BUILD A BUCENTAUR AND WHAT LVLS IT REQUIRES PLZ

H.-Gazi
08-04-2016

To be clear...

Bucentaur is NOT buildable as far as I've checked every region within Europe. I find it pretty strange, because like the dragonhead is this neither buildable while they were listed on the announcement.

It is neither listed according to most players that studied JP and Taiwan Wiki (including myself). I am pretty disappointed on this :(

thank you for replie, it is disapointing that it cant be fs built, is there any of the 3 new ship that can be fs built?

Rael can be build at either Ceuta or Seville with

Large 2-decked Row Boat and Windjammer can be build at either Plymouth or London with

Not mentioned on the website update: you can now order meals from your Quarters steward, just like at a tavern! Great for when you're doing recipes there and don't feel like going out to the tavern or cafe for a refuel, eh?

BonnyLass
08-05-2016

You're right! I think the menu may depend on the Steward's nationality, since I live in Lisbon, and my Stockholm steward Nils is offering me Swedish cuisine. You can even order a course meal, how convenient.

In other news, I've been getting a message about "Gained a bonus 50%!" for using skills at sea. Caution, Frugality, Steering... is there some sort of special trigger for this? Is it permanent? Does it work with production skills? Discovery ones? On land, in dungeons? Inquiring skill-grinding minds wish to know!

Curious
08-05-2016

I hear it's basically just telling you the affects of your skill when it's favored by your job. Since the amount of proficiency you need to rank up a skill is halfed when in the appropriate job, it's saying you "gained a bonus 50%" because 50% is half.

DiNozzo
08-05-2016

I saw a messege of gained bonus 20% and 100% too.
20% bonus was seen at aide exp by aide cabin. But I dont know why 100% bonus appears.

BonnyLass
08-05-2016

Hmm. But none of those skills were favored when I went sailing and got those messages? Or maybe I didn't understand what you said correctly. Well, the patch did just come out, I suppose not everything can be known right away. Thanks just the same, Curious.

Miles
08-05-2016

I wonder how unaware people about permanent +50% skill prof boost applied on Gama more than year ago.

BonnyLass
08-05-2016

Oh, so you're saying the message I saw was related to that lovely permanent boost? That would make sense.

Curious
08-05-2016

I suppose that could also be a reason, though dumb if so. If the server is on a permanent +50% proficiency boost, doesn't that mean that is simply the new standard? Like the old paradox that if everyone's super, no one is super :p

Battousai
08-05-2016

Not exactly because in case they do for example a 2x event, that would be a just another 50% additive bonus instead of a 100%

Guilder
08-06-2016

Not to mention that increased transparency in a game like this would not be a bad thing.

Curious
08-06-2016

So the skills for the Modified Bucentaur have been released:

Control tower + Mast top -> Direct hit prevention
Set of repair tools + Metal work -> Bullet-proof armouring
Money chest + Special Ship Hold -> Improved Hold
Control tower + Admiral's cabin -> Command post
Admiral's cabin + Money chest -> Quality Luxury Goods Storage
Recreation room + Special Ship Hold -> Quality Cabin

Curious
08-06-2016

I find it interesting that Improved Hold and Quality Luxury Goods Storage are on this thing...

Visitor
08-06-2016

It certainly fits with the Venetian nobility's tastes for luxury and opulence, though most players will likely wish to use the Bucentaur as a battleship.

On an unrelated note, all discovery skills -- that is, the seven Archive book skills such as Archaeology, Biology, Astronomy and so on -- can reportedly be refined at St. Petersburg if you have them at R15.

Visitor
08-21-2016

I can think of nowhere else to post this information... it appears the recent patch made it possible to Tow and Logout, without having to switch an Aide into Navigator. This does not affect the time needed to tow, unless one's Aide has a special skill that makes it quicker to Tow in a certain region, either.

Guilder
08-25-2016

You know, based on things I'm hearing from others, it's possible we got more than we expected with the recent patch. Body language being added as a favored skill by the three beginner jobs, the ability to do new things with your private farms' crops, certain discoveries and recipes... those were part of "Atlantic Ocean", a Chapter 2.5 patch.

gamecity.ne.jp/dol/developer/new_updata2015_10.htm
gvo.gamedb.info/wiki/?Update/151006

If it's now possible to add Astronomy as a +1 skill to an Aide via those temporary skill items, we might have further proof. This could mean... we're closer to Chapter 3: Acropolis than previously expected. Or am I wrong? I'd love to be wrong about this.

Bael
08-25-2016

More they run quicker they fall

Guilder
08-25-2016

So... was that a yes? I'm more worried about KOEI's plans for the Acropolis being fast-tracked in a similar manner, and there's no way this kind of acceleration could be happening without their approval, if not their express orders.

H.-Gazi
08-25-2016

Well I couldn't transmute Divider

Divider and according to chapter 2.5 from JP wiki it says more items can be transmuted. I find it weird as well that the new body language system applied.

Honestly I am rather surprised how fast the episode(s) goes since chapter 4 of Gran Atlas. This was released in third week of February, Atlantis chapter 1 at second week of May (2.5 month gap) and now Barca Solar at first week of August (2.5 month gap).

The gap between the times are shorten for some reason, because it was usually about 4 months... O.o

maybe they change the ownership soon? since... you know we havent got any maintenance in few weeks already since sahara fix

Guilder
08-26-2016

H.-Gazi: Thanks. That's interesting news; could be the Sahara glitch was related to our getting parts of 2.5 early? No way to know for sure, of course. I've heard one theory that things are speeding up to try and sync with the EA pay servers, though it's just a theory.

I'm wondering now if there was a mix-up in the translation patch work order, resulting in part of 2.5 being released early by accident. We'll see how things proceed... I just hope we don't get to Age of Revolution too quickly. The Acropolis is so cool, after all, and... anyway. Thanks again.

syah: H.-Gazi's comment confirms that not all of 2.5 is in the game right now. I also question the wisdom of investing time and manpower (which both cost money) into rushing to get new releases out, if the chances to benefit from them will be slim to non-existent.

NetMarble did just the opposite: they cut back on things like the "Deckhand" (first mates of old) and Community Advisor programs, failed to release updates that they'd announced on their website as being 'right around the corner', and so on. Last I heard, CAs were still going strong, and a Firstmate recruitment program was ongoing...

Mini update Chapter 2.5 Atlantic Ocean coming October 13th:

uwo.ogplanet.com/en/news/update/9602.og

From what I gathered on the Japanese Wiki, there's really not much to expect:

- Continuation of the Atlantis Storyline
- Some new cooking recipes involving Pumpkins (previously they had no particular use, though we'll have to see how useful these new recipes are)
- The ability to adjust production numbers on your private farm
- The ability to grant the Astronomy skill on your aides though I think the item needed to do that is/will be astros only.

As always, it's subjected to change for us on GAMA.

Kossmynn
09-30-2016

Glad to hear about the date :) besides all of those u mentioned, there will finally be implemented the missing Quests (check Walker's Excel- tinyurl.com/AllDiscs) and that wreck discovery in Cape Cod. Also, there is a great chance we get the new farm location in Aleutian Islands available- from what I've seen, it's a paradise for alchemists- (check the japowiki for the conditions).

Guilder
10-01-2016

Thanks for the heads up, BlakeC. Ah, and actually Kossmynn, the fifth farm shouldn't be out until 3.5, "Americas".

gamecity.ne.jp/dol/developer/new_updata2016_02.htm

It's also discussed in

Private Farm, including an exact location. Seems we have to wait a bit longer, sadly. A few of 2.5's features already seem to be out (body language tweaks, pumpkin recipes), but others will be quite welcome. I think we get some new Alchemy recipes as well.

Atlantis. We've been waiting, and come December 8th will be, "Chapter 3: Acropolis", the next expansion of UWO in which we can finally seek out the truth of the legendary city. But every silver lining has its cloud -- access to the city and its wonders (items, memorial albums, and more) will likely follow the JP model, meaning it will only be around for a few months before it vanishes into the mists of obscurity, only reappearing and being accessible for brief periods of time.

So here's a nice checklist of Atlantis-accessing goals, which I think somebody should probably compile in the official UWO forum later (if they haven't done so already).

1. Graduate from any Intermediate school class: adventure, trade, or maritime. Proceed then to Amsterdam and meet with Mercator; accept the World Atlas quest, and chart the North Sea.
2. Discover Knossos Palace by completing the

Legend of the Labyrinthos quest.
3. Unlock all your port permits through East Asia.
4. Visit Oxford to accept Land Survey quest from Professor Smith. Travel to Candia and chart the two landing zones, West Candia and Inland Crete.

This opens the path to the Atlantis story chains. Your next steps depend a bit.

Quest 1: Land of the Legendary King. All players can find it in Stockholm from the Adventure Mediator; if you've discovered the Siberian Husky (John Tradescant storyline quest), Amsterdam's Mediator also has it. If you've discovered Xanadu (John Tradescant storyline quest again), it's also-also found at London's Adventure Mediator.
Quest 2: Egypt and Atlantis. Comes from London's Adventure Mediator.
Quest 3: A Chance Encounter on the Sea of Atlas. Once again... London's Adventure Mediator.

From there, the Atlantis story branches out into Adventure, Trade, and Battle chains.

Adventure Chain: seems to require completion of the John Tradescant storyline. Not easily done; I couldn't find evidence of a special equip reward, but I may just have missed something.

Trade Chain: First quest ("A Certain Merchant's Worries") becomes available from Athens' Merchant Mediator after completion of the Land of the Legendary King. Takes place primarily in East Asia; grants the special EX equippable head accessory with "accident rate decrease Rank8" effect.

Maritime Chain: You have to complete the Henry Morgan quest chain, as well as the "Sea of Atlas" quest. Reward is a pair of cool EX boots with "melee combat force increase Rank1" effect.

If you want to try to track all of it, feel free to do so starting from Q#1: gvdb.mydns.jp/db/module/QuestDB/action/QuestShow?id=4958

Two other recommended resources:

gvo.gamedb.info/wiki/?ImperialOrder (Imperial Quests to reach Atlantis will be required at certain times.)
gvo.gamedb.info/wiki/?AncientTechnology (Special rewards involving Atlantis, certain game activities, and so on)

There's more, and who knows what will be altered for GAMA in the rewards department... but I really only wanted to give you the information needed to reach Atlantis; the rest we'll discover in time, and through the reports of other players, no doubt. Cheers, and great online voyaging to you all. And... sorry for taking over the front page like this.

Curious
12-08-2016

Wow, these new ships suck... the PEK has less total sail power than the PC and it looks to be less battle capable and yet it is one level higher?

The Felipe has about the same level requirement as the High Clipper or Windjammer, but can't go as fast and has less cargo space...

Who's going to buy/build these ships... smh

Guilder
12-08-2016

Actually, I know a very experienced and insightful shipbuilder who's been waiting eagerly for the Felipe. He sees some great potential in it extending all the way to Age of Revolution and beyond, such that he's already drafted some build plans and is going to make them as soon as possible. I don't have a head for shipbuilding myself, but I trust his judgment in those matters. Can't comment as to the Polar Ketch, as it hasn't interested either of us enough to warrant investigation.

Curious
12-08-2016

The only way I can see the Felipe being a good option over what's already available is if it turns out to be like the Hind or something where despite it's sail count it is still fast. Also I would imagine it to probably accelerate faster than the other clipper options... if these aren't true, I don't really see what your shipbuilder friend sees in it.

Caution: A Lord and a Merchant (Lisbon Merchant Guild) quest to unlock Sunboat construction should also require having previously cleared "A Certain Merchant's Worries" quest.

That's how the J-Wiki site shows the quest info, and a friend expressed some concern about this not being mentioned on OGP's site. Don't want people spamming QMPs for a quest that may not be accessible to them yet, though if the requirements for the Lord-Merchant quest are different, disregard this comment (which I'll delete in that case).

One more thing: Those Who Seek and Those Who Lead (London Adventure Guild, Search R1, Appraisal R1, English) adventure quest is noted on J-Wiki as "(You need to discover Xanadu on this route as well)". So that's another possible unlisted requirement the OGP site may have missed.

Within hidden passages of the new dungeon, Temple of Poseidon, exists a new weapon Casting recipe.

Recipe: Making Guardian's Weapon
Skill: R15 Casting
Ingredients:
x50 Silver
x60 Marble
x30 Pure iron sheets

All recipe items can technically be gained from the dungeon, though it'd probably faster to bring them with you, most of the time. The recipe produces the Terra Amina, a club-staff weapon with base stats of:

Attack 80
Defense 20

Sword Mastery +2
Guard

Guard x2

Already a fairly cool weapon, if upgraded through Enhanced Alchemy (which will clearly have a different set of ingredients on GAMA than in Japan), it can gain the EX ability of "Relic Piece Acqusition Increase Rate" R12. Useful for running THs, as well as looking cool.

17-star relic clue, requiring R11 Search, R13 Theology, R9 Archaeology.
Notes: You cannot access this theme until you've discovered the Acropolis of Atlantis. The relic reward is a consumable called "Coat of the Nemean Lion"; it isn't part of any Memorial Album, and can only be found in the Temple of Poseidon dungeon after having accepted the quest. The relic reward has no effect on its own, but it is an essential ingredient to create a special, nice looking armor through Alchemy. Not sure if that recipe's in-game yet or not though.

As well, when your player nation's Ancient Technology research hits a certain point, new Sewing/Handicrafts recipes become available at your nation's Secretary. A convenient link:

They're essentially blue versions of the clothes sold in Atlantis, with skill boosts.

Does that TH appear on a specific floor, like the Labyrinth Treasure Hunts which appear on a hidden floor after 21 floors?

Guilder
12-17-2016

Just like the Labyrinth, with the new TH active and the relic quest accepted, you'll eventually see a unique option to enter a "special hidden passage" unlike the normal hidden passages, which is where the TH relic is found. And yes, it's almost always around floor 20 (every twenty floors if you're resuming past it) or so, in my experience.

Actually, here's a link to info on both the Labyrinth and the Temple of Poseidon on a single (Japanese) page:

gvo.gamedb.info/wiki/?Labyrinth

It's worth noting that the chest drops change if you have THs related to these endless dungeons active. Certain MA items only appear if the right TH theme is active when you enter the endless dungeon; as well, Temple of Poseidon is one of the few dungeons I know of in the game which can drop both exquisite dye and rubies in generous amounts (assuming TH "Myth and Reality" active). Even the trade goods are different. Just something for item hounds and album completionists to keep in mind.

So I figured if you repeat Secret Edict quests (the ones needed to build the solar barge) after you have built the barge for the week, then on top of the normal (average at best) reward, you are also given a "Secret Edict Award" chest / consumable item. Since this week there's a really easy secret edict quest where you just have to go talk to the Candia gatekeeper, I spent a few hours going from Athens to Candia repeating it to get a good number of those chests and see what they contain. Here's the findings:

Opened 58 chests. Contents were:

Mysterious Gold x1 14 times

Legendary Craftsman's Carpentry Tools x1 7 times

Smoke Bomb of Retreat x1 13 times

Hanseatic League Seal x1 8 times

Shipwreck Map Piece x1 5 times

Special Delivery Note x1 1 time

Silver Tarot x1 3 times

Renegotiation Demand x1 3 times

Tow Permit x2 4 times

Worth noting I reckon.

I noticed that the Atlantis Store Keeper wanted dyes this week, and just for fun, tried taking 100 Common Grass, a Dyes trade good. As I expected, they were not considered a valid item to exchange for Ancient Tech Research, and remained grayed out at the goods exchange screen. I'm guessing this applies to other "junk" trade good items like Sand, Rocks, and possibly some kinds of fish. Just a fun FYI.

Stinker
01-06-2017

He doesn't take Brine either (for seasonings, also wanted this week). But turning it into Salt was accepted. So there you have the dividing line between junk and non-junk! Maybe because salt can be bought at market, and Brine or Common Grass cannot.

Guilder
01-09-2017

Strangely, Large Leaves (Dyes category) do work for trading with the Atlantis Store Keeper. That makes sense on some level as it's not as "junky" as brine or common grass, but I wasn't really expecting it to work. Hmm... anybody want to try gold nuggets from San Francisco next time their category is favored? *G*

Cheers, and happy Atlantean adventures... it won't be long before Chapter 3.5 "Americas" comes out, and after that, the Age of Revolution that removes access to Atlantis from the game entirely.

Morro
01-09-2017

Common Grass, Rocks, Snad and Brine are the only trade goods obtainable in every region without fail at r1 of their respective gathering skills. Those are the only ones that are "junk" imho. Maybe seaweed, but I'll let you guys do that experiment.

Heya everyone,

I keep hearing about the disappearance of Atlantis at an certain chapter of Age of Revolution... I firstly thought it was an rumour, but it seems it became rather an fact as Guilder stated before.

In my opinion it is completily wrong to remove Atlantis now for several reasons:
1) The quests that are required to enter Atlantis will lose their value along with their storylines (which were rather interesting).
2) Clothes and certain recipe (from contributing acropolis), will not longer be avialable. This can be frustating for returners or new starters.
3) Crystal Blessings, very awesome benefit and now taking them away?... Most players will be probably heart-broken.
4) Alchemy transmutation base success rate is now almost equal to JP server (5% lower), but heard it comes from Acropolis. Heck, I don't wanna do transmutations with our nerfed base success rate.
5) Temple of Poseidon, this dungeon is similiar as Labyrinth but some unique drops like exequisite dyes, clothes and goods are really awesome along with some new npc's. Not to mention it drops Orichalcum what we player want it!
6) MOST IMPORTANT: Memorial Albums and Treasure Hunt that involves Atlantis... There has been several memorial album added like rare clothes drop, land battle items from statue bosses and partly from Treasure Hunt. This is the part which will be most frustating for players when they have to miss this out...

In short, it is in my opinion wrong to make this kind of event discontinued for the reasons I've just stated above. I hope our server won't suffer this consequenses and I am planning to really suggest this on my post on the forum soon.

All I hope KOEI listens at least on this...

Cheers!

Guilder

I agree with you on every point. I hope other players will join in voicing their wish for Atlantis and all of its associated content to remain accessible on a regular basis; we lose nothing by asking, after all. Cheers.

Chapter 3.5: Americas is coming tonight. Here's a Japanese page link on some of the things to expect:

gamecity.ne.jp/dol/developer/new_updata2016_02.htm

Note we got the new private farm earlier than expected. Other changes may follow.

Remember: Atlantis WILL be leaving us when the first chapter of Age of Revolution comes. We can ask OGP nicely to ask KOEI nicely to not take away our shiny precious Atlantean toy, but it's best to presume we will follow the lead of our Asian server cousins and see Atlantis leave in only a few months' time.

That aside, here's a nice checklist of Atlantis-accessing goals, which I think somebody should probably compile in the official UWO forum later (if they haven't done so already).

1. Graduate from any Intermediate school class: adventure, trade, or maritime. Proceed then to Amsterdam and meet with Mercator; accept the World Atlas quest, and chart the North Sea.
2. Discover Knossos Palace by completing the

Legend of the Labyrinthos quest.
3. Unlock all your port permits through East Asia.
4. Visit Oxford to accept Land Survey quest from Professor Smith (you do NOT need to have started the Oxford thesis chain, only have East Asia permit, World Atlas from Mercator, and Knossos discovered). Travel to Candia and chart the two landing zones, West Candia and Inland Crete, then report back to Oxford for a reward.

This opens the path to the Atlantis story chains. Your next steps depend a bit.

Quest 1: Land of the Legendary King. All players can find it in Stockholm from the Adventure Mediator; if you've discovered the Siberian Husky (John Tradescant storyline quest), Amsterdam's Mediator also has it. If you've discovered Xanadu (John Tradescant storyline quest again), it's also-also found at London's Adventure Mediator.
Quest 2: Egypt and Atlantis. Comes from London's Adventure Mediator.
Quest 3: A Chance Encounter on the Sea of Atlas. Once again... London's Adventure Mediator. Beware of NPC sea battles (escaping is fine, as are Amulets of the Sun)
Quest 4: Aspiring a Pure World. Amsterdam Adventure Mediator.
Quest 5: Easiest one is Dangerous Caribbean from Seville's Maritime Mediator; a quick escapable/AoS sea battle, and you're good.

From there, report to your nation's palace, and speak with the secretary to complete the Solar Barca (three Imperial Quests; change weekly, vary in difficulty).

Atlantis does branch out into three distinct chains. They are:

Adventure Chain: Must have completed Xanadu discovery/John Tradescante episodes. Not easily done; I couldn't find evidence of a special equip reward, but I may just have missed something.

Trade Chain: First quest ("A Certain Merchant's Worries") becomes available from Athens' Merchant Mediator after completion of the Land of the Legendary King. Takes place primarily in East Asia; grants the special EX equippable head accessory with "accident rate decrease Rank8" effect.

Maritime Chain: You have to complete the Henry Morgan quest chain, as well as the "Sea of Atlas" quest. Reward is a pair of cool EX boots with "melee combat force increase Rank1" effect.

If you want to try to track all of it, feel free to do so starting from Q#1: gvdb.mydns.jp/db/module/QuestDB/action/QuestShow?id=4958

Two other recommended resources:

gvo.gamedb.info/wiki/?ImperialOrder (Imperial Quests to reach Atlantis will be required at certain times.)
gvo.gamedb.info/wiki/?AncientTechnology (Special rewards involving Atlantis, certain game activities, and so on)

Lastly, remember that GAMA contents/rewards may differ from paid subscribing servers. Sure hope not.

10 QMP to show quests, which go to a specific region (the region where the discovery is located), is a lot.

This might only be useful if you are looking for a specific (rare) quest, and you know the discovery location. It depends...
Will it prompt rare quests easier?
How does this work together with Hide quest oxford skill? If there were no quests shown, you can refresh the list of quests for free. Will this also work for option?

H.-Gazi
02-17-2017

The following ship skills are avialable, so far also as original skill:

Food Storage - Prevents Scurvy, Malnutiration and plague when you've supply on board. It reduces the use of food/water as well similiar to Frugality.
Special Lab - Grants +1 Alchemy and +1 Linguistic.
Cooking Room - Grants +1 Cooking and +1 Storage.
Manufacturing Lab - Grants +1 Sewing, Casting and Handicraft.
Swordplay Training Room - Grants +1 Swordplay and +1 Sword Mastery
Shooting Room - Grants +1 Gunfire and +1 Sniping.
Melee Room - Grants +1 Assault, Guard and Tactic.

I could be wrong by the way, but since it says "augment" similiar way as PO skills I thought this would be the same. Any correction is welcome.

Cheers!

"Adventure Chain: Must have completed Xanadu discovery/John Tradescante episodes. Not easily done; I couldn't find evidence of a special equip reward, but I may just have missed something."

The reward for the adventure chain, among others, is an accessory called the Cameo Habille:
50 durability
40 formality
+2 sociability
+1 repair
Special effect: increase skill effect duration r3

as well as a sword called the Espee Rapiere:
100 durability
30 formality
55 attack
30 defence
+2 swordplay
+2 sword mastery
+1 trap
10k fame required
Special effect: increase relic clue acquisition r5

Hello all, any1 known the new private farm ubication? pls. Thanks.

Destry1
02-17-2017

The battle chain reward is indeed the Bravery Boots:
100 durability
18 formality
15 defence
+2 swordplay
+1 sword mastery
5k fame required
Special effect: Increase melee battle capabilities r1

You also get 2-3 Doctoral Thesis on Navigation, which gives 10k Oxford college credits. These do add to getting your credits necessary to unlock new oxford skill slots, so this is great for new characters who just started working on Oxford skills. Use together with Scholarship Recognition (an oxford skill) to get an extra 2k credits.

In any case, adventurers get two rewards, compared to one for maritimers and traders, proving once more that adventure is the best ^^

Well, I've tried out the 10 QMP option a few times, without the Oxford skill on that hides previously done quests. If the 10 QMP option is successful in finding one or more quests in your selected region, the game tells you, "You have used 10 Quest Mediation Permit." and subtracts them from your stock, displaying at least one quest in the selected region.

If it fails, you instead get a message that says, "No available Quests found. Used Quest Mediation Permit x1 to show regular Quests instead." I think I'll stick to the old one QMP at a time option for the most part, it just didn't work that well for me consistently enough to be worth 10 QMPs.

BIakeC
02-27-2017

That wasn't a bad idea, but the problem is QMPs are not as plentiful here in GAMA as they are on the other Asian servers (they get more QMPs for completing quests for instance), thus it doesn't seem logical to spend that many when you could likely get that particular quest in less then that or use a SQMP rather wasting money like that.

BonnyLass
03-02-2017

We could always suggest a raise in QMP/PO drops? I did think of one case where the 10 QMP feature could be useful: looking for a quest that ends up someplace few, if any other quests from your starting location go to. One example would be the Phantom under a Blue Sky quest, since it ends in East Asia, and only one other quest from Alexandria goes out that way.

Guilder
03-13-2017

At the risk of getting people's hopes up unnecessarily... When Atlantis was about to leave in Japanese pay-for servers, its item shop was updated with better items. GAMA may or may not get these items, but here's the list:

"Lost and ancient celestial globe" ......... 400 thousand Ducato you can move to Atlantis continent.
"Ancient knowledge book" ... ..................... 3 million ducato, you can earn more research points of ancient technical research for one hour.
"Holy Grail of Stone" ..................... 10 million If you use Ducato, you will increment the adjuvant assignable property value by 1.
"Amulet of the war beast" ..................... 1.5 million If you use Ducato, the degree of weapons acquisition doubles for 30 minutes.
"Lots of plenty of specialty rice" ..................... 3 million ducato When used, it is the pet's feed that maximizes the parent density of the pet you keep.
Even if it is not enough, familiarity is maximized.

It'd be nice if KOEI allowed us to have even a few of those items in GAMA, too. Time will tell. No official departure date for our own Atlantis has been named as yet, but... well. Cheers.

It seems Atlantis WILL disappear after all for us once Age of Revolution is implemented in the next estimated 2-4 weeks. Once it's gone, as quoted from the page, "players will no longer be able to:

- Receive Secret Edicts and make the Solar Barge.
- Research the Solar Barge.
- Conduct Ancient Technology Research.
- Receive the 'Crystal of Blessings' and obtain Blessings."

Now is the time to take advantage of what Atlantis has to offer, before it will vanish, save for very brief appearances.

BonnyLass
03-23-2017

Tsk, as feared, then. Do we have an estimate or exact date for when the next update is? Also, I checked the Atlantis item shop, but there's nothing new there. Perhaps we are indeed skipping those nice sounding toys which Guilder spoke of.

Guilder
03-23-2017

And unless I'm much mistaken, the EX reward finale quests related to Atlantis will also become impossible to access/complete, until Atlantis returns (rarely, for a month at a time, if Japan servers are any indication). Atlantis... would that you were indeed everlasting.

H.-Gazi
03-23-2017

This means that the discovery "Future of Atlantis" becomes unobtainable at an certain period. Not to mention... Alchemy Transmutation base success rate which is currently buffed by 20% will disappear as well, since there will no effect anymore from Ancient Technology Research... :-(

Caddy
03-24-2017

Is it really just 2-4 weeks out? By their wording, it's so hard to draw any context clues:

"Episode Atlantis will come to an end and Atlantis will disappear from the world when the next age update is introduced".

The key word I took from this is "AGE" update. Does this mean, a) whenever industrial revolution patch arrives (i.e., the dawn of a new age), in whatever time frame they decide to give it to us, b) The next time the world clock shifts, or c) the next update we get, period (i.e., next time server goes down for any maintenance at ALL). Personally, I would be surprised if it goes away while there is still an Atlantis named bottle in circulation (but I could be wrong). The estimates I had heard for when we get the Revolution were considerably further out than 2-4 weeks....but I guess we will just have to wait and see.

Booohooo, and I had just unlocked it too X.X

Caddy
03-24-2017

As a side note, if atlantis is indeed about to vanish for "good", then doesn't look like we are going to get the items Guilder mentioned, as they aren't currently in the item shop there (at least for me; maybe someone with more atlantis progress can double check).

Guilder
03-24-2017

The Industrial Revolution comes as part of the AGE of Revolution update. Note the logo:

www.gamecity.ne.jp/dol/age_of_revolution/

If we're following Japan's route, the beginning of that update's first chapter marks the end of Atlantis being accessible. I'm hoping for the end of April/beginning of May, if in fact we must lose Atlantis at all (and it seems we must).

As to the item shop upgrade in Atlantis, no, it's not there for me either. Maybe it's scheduled to appear in the last days of Atlantis, or maybe GAMA will never get those items outside of Astro Shop and Sailor Bottles. Feel free to ask GMs, they might just answer.

The 2-4 week period which I think AGE of Revolution is coming is a estimate, not a a guarantee. If you've been following OGplanet, your notice there's a maintenance every two weeks with a game update, large or small, every two months (almost always on a Wednesday). Since we got chapter 3.5 Americas back in February, it can be reasonable to assume We'll get AoR on April 5th, or the 19th. And if were following the Japanese updates, Atlantis will be removed once AoR arrives. And as always, this is subjected to change for us on GAMA. But for Atlantis, we hardly knew ye...

Not sure if anyone else has had this issue, but before today, I hadn't seen the Ancient Technology Request quest for "Mysterious Weapon" appear. Well, lo and behold, today it appeared, allowing me to complete my "Interactions with the Supercivilization" memorial album, and giving me the Laurel Wreath +1 Body Language +2 Textile trading +2 Fabric trading (100/100 dura, 10def 10formality).

We have a new reward box around. It's called Gift for Regional Activities. You can claim it if your company has chosen to send their reserve aides to aide fleet and you have chosen to participate and the result of their activities on a given day has been a success. I don't know if there's a way to influence the success rate. So far, in our company we have had 2 success days and 2 fail days. It feels like a fixed rate probability thing. Between me and my friend, in the box we've so far found:

- 1 x

Shipwreck Map Piece
- 1 x

Master's Tailoring Tools
- 1 x

Tribute Goods for Brigands

It feels like a conditional extra daily login reward then, but remember to check for success and claim it from the aide fleet tab if you're interested.

Guilder
05-20-2017

Seems there's a bit more information here (though details are in Japanese as usual, and rewards subject to alteration on GAMA):

gvo.gamedb.info/wiki/?Company/LocalFleet

Interestingly, someone I know in a company was able to pick up a reward item on a success day, despite not having sent an aide of their own. So if you're a member of a company at the time it sends out the Aide fleet, it could be you'll be eligible for rewards even if you don't have (or send) an aide of your own.

I think I see some memorial album items marked in red text. Interesting. Cheers, and may your aide fleets succeed more often than not.

The other items are:

Purchase Order (Category 1)

Purchase Order (Category 2)

Purchase Order (Category 3)

Purchase Order (Category 4)

Master's Smithy Tools

The JP Wiki has

Processed Lumber &

Pure Iron Sheet marked as reward but maybe not for us, seems exactly the same as the daily loggin reward.
@Guilder for what I can get from JP wiki, those red MA items are production, sometime during the month there will be a production button available.
There is another reward marked as monthly named "(Region) Appreciation Gifts"

On the first of every month is the Participation Notice for Aide Fleet, during which time a Company leader can submit a participation notice under 'Aide Fleet.' This we kind of already knew.

However, today is also when the MA ring recipe (R10 Handicrafts) appeared for some friends' companies, along with special clothing related to the company's target region (in their case, Latin America). I would guess the MA ring and non-MA region clothing recipes will be available for a week's time. We'll soon see.

and what currentrly top marit ships?

Guilder
06-11-2017

A reason to return.... That really depends on your preferred style of play, doesn't it? Since that time, we've had:

New cities
New discoveries (in all fields, plus a special new category that requires no skill: Weather/Phenomena)
Time-specific recipes/items, and special titles that unlock them at your discretion
New equipment
New dungeon elements (including harder to fight land enemies)
New dungeons: The Labyrinth (Crete) and the Temple of Poseidon (Atlantis; only rarely accessible)
New stories, including the Atlantis saga
New maritime grinding options
New sea/land zones (including the Arctic North passages)
New ships (tons)
New weapon types (revolvers/crossbows)
New aide options (production/royal fleet/monthly fleet)
New ship skills

I don't keep track of specifics in Maritime ship strength, so I can't help you there. Further down the road, there'll be skills for pets, revamped Company Colonies, and of course, loads more new content, including a sister college to Oxford that'll make the game even more fun to play, and yet more ships/equipment/yadda-yadda.

I'd suggest dropping in and having a look around for yourself. If nothing else, maybe say 'hi' to folks who might remember you. Cheers, and fair winds to you, whatever your choice.

Special quests have been added (and more will be in future updates) that enable you to attract migrant colonists to your company's colony. Aside from raising population count, sometimes special NPCs will be added with recipes/items (if you have the right buildings for them to appear at), some of which are Memorial Album related, or special effects will apparently trigger for certain colony buildings.

Quest list here: gvo.gamedb.info/wiki/?Quest/ImmigrationAttract
Company Colony data here: gvo.gamedb.info/wiki/?Company/Outpost (Immigration invitation section covers immigrant bonuses)

And as an amusing sidenote, some new accessory ornaments were added to Colony buildings as well: Outdoor Table Set, Christmas tree, and Halloween (5k population needed before they can be selected). They give no special effects other than looking neat, of course. Cheers.

Sorry, but that job is exclusive to Chapter 3: Age of Reason, which debuted in Japan's servers February 2017.

www.gamecity.ne.jp/dol/topics_cms/update/4292.html

Unless GAMA's schedule is sped up considerably, we can probably expect it about that time next year, as well (we've been matching the monthly release dates from Japan's servers almost perfectly of late). If it seems a long way off, remember that there are only three official chapters to this expansion, so of course they would save the best for last.

We'll see how the next expansion, Order of the Prince, plays out in time... cheers.

Ahoy Captains,

We are saddened to announce that OGPlanet’s support of Uncharted Waters Online will be concluding on September 29th, 2017.

Our team greatly appreciates all of the community’s support and contributions over the past nearly 4 years, and we will all miss sailing the seas with you.

(The in-game shop and Sailor’s Bottle will be inaccessible on September 28th, 2017.)

Shortly after OGPlanet’s support concludes, UWO will be relaunching through Papaya Play. You can find Papaya Play’s announcement here:

www.playuwo.com/

Thank you all again for the past few years, and we wish you fair winds and smooth sailing in your future adventures.

* For those who wish to get a refund of Astros, please do so by contacting your bank.

- UWO Team

Source: uwo.ogplanet.com/en/intro.og

I'm sure an actual bulletin will be forthcoming. UWO has changed hands before, and accounts/server were wisely preserved intact each time; however, captain chest items may not be carried over since that was an OGP innovation. Check around, and start making your preparations now...

I'm used to it, but it's always such a hassle.

News blurb: www.develop-online.net/press-releases/uncharted-waters-online-setting-sail-for-papaya-play/0235609

GAMA closes on the 29th of this month, then Papaya relaunches on October 18th. Also, the new website link: uwo.papayaplay.com/uwo/

Strange tidbit from the new site main page. Quote: "Following the relaunch Papaya Play will introduce the Age of Reason Expansion adding new regions to explore and new ways to play!" That would advance GAMA's timetable of updates significantly (in Japan, for October they got a small content update, and then another one in December, followed soon after by Age of Reason, IE Steamship Clermont/Pet Trainer & Steam Engineer jobs patch) to say the least.

rokr, no matter how many times they change, gPotato or NetMarble or OGPlanet or Papayaland or Bananaland or God knows what other future gaming websites are going to take over. There's one thing that all these companies can't do.

And that is.. Amendment of the Game client files.

Take note, UWO contents still belongs to KOEI and under no circumstances gaming websites like Papayaland I mean PapayaPlay, could amend anything without KOEI's permission. I can only foresee some players quitting after this. In my opinion, I think it's a bad decision for KOEI themselves to franchise UWO out. They should be the ones running a server specially for English GAMA server themselves instead of passing down one after another.

Mark my words, if Papayaland (damn why do I like that name) is going to be like OGPlanet again, then expect in another 4-5 years time Papayaland will hand over to Bananaland or Pineappleland.

A friend pointed me to this link:

warrock.papayaplay.com/warrock.do?tp=news.view&postid=1346

It's an example of how PP has handled hosting transfers before. While we're still waiting for further news on UWO, the fact that this particular game saw "account data transferred" without incident and "all remaining player data (achievements, Clan information, friends lists) ... integrated into the game servers" is promising.

I can't read the OGP forums due to never having posted there before, and saw nothing helpful on the website or Facebook yet, so... does anybody know if we're supposed to start making accounts at Papayaland now and have them merged with our OGP ones later? Or just wait until they say, "give us your information now, please"? I'd rather not mess this up, but I also don't want to wait for too long and miss an important window of opportunity.

Bael

From the post-maintenance UWO login screen:

That advice may be a week or so late, but if you haven't heeded it yet, you'd best do so very soon. Also, in addition to having the cash shop removed, the Sailor Bottle and Captain's Chest options are now gone/disabled as well.

Still no official word from Papaya Play that I can see, but it's only a matter of time now. Cheers.

A toast to the past four years, OGPlanet. I had some issues with certain things from time to time, but how much of that was your doing, and how much was KOEI's, we'll never know, nor does it matter now -- to me, the four years' worth of memories and adventures were what mattered the most in the end.

A toast also to Papaya Play. May your hosting duties be smooth, your approach to matters be wise, and your patience be resilient enough to deal with all us high-strung game players who know what's best for UWO (even though we seldom agree with one another about things) too.

Cheers, and great online voyaging... or offline, as the case may now be, to all. See you all in a few weeks in-game. See you much more often around here. :P And once the dust settles, we may want to use the little silver "Delete" button in the lower-right of our posts to clear unneeded comments from this article when service resumes. I will be doing that, anyway.

Here's hoping. Quick tip for account transfers: when you log in at the above link using OGP account data, your UWO account details are confirmed, and you then have two options to link your account to P2:

#1. If you already created a P2 account beforehand, you can just link your UWO account from OGP to it directly.
#2. If you don't yet have a P2 account, you'll be prompted to now create one (pick a username, enter email/pass of choice), which your UWO-OGP account will then be linked to afterward.

And that's it. Pretty simple.

Blake.C
10-05-2017

I dont know if it will matter that much now; it appears that we will be getting a server wipe after all, and everyone will be starting over:

uwo.papayaplay.com/uwo/

"The UWO Team will be using the relaunch through Papaya Play as an opportunity to revamp many aspects of PvP Battles, including plundered items and Deck Battle frequency, plus a number of other system rebalances. Due to the technical nature of the relaunch, however, all existing player progress and items from OGP will unfortunately be lost, and the game world/economy will undergo a complete reset."

I will give them a thumbs up for making an effort to try to revamp things in UWO as described to level out the playing field, but also giving them the finger for all the levels, skills, ive grinded over the years, and the money ive spent before in-game and RL monies trying to get rare items from the sailors bottle down the shit hole.

Guilder
10-05-2017

I saw the news myself just a bit ago. This is indeed a terrible turn of events; I can't honestly say I feel all that motivated to keep playing UWO at this point. My belongings weren't just "items" or "ships"... they were precious memories, milestones of everything I've seen and done over the past four years. To have it all wiped out in the blink of an eye...

... That is why I hate MMOs, and have always avoided them (except, ironically, for UWO). I never liked having that possibility hanging over my head like the sword of Damocles. But you expect that to happen at the end of a game's life, not in the middle of it.

It's possible this could still be reversed. October 18th is a few weeks away. But if not... well. I'll save that thought for another day. For now, I would recommend letting your voices be heard in the UWO forums. Maybe Vertigo, a company that claims it will "put users first, consistently reaching out to our gaming communities and keeping communication open" might hear us... and if KOEI-Tecmo is the one pulling these strings, so too might they.

... Later.

Knowledge of the game is useless when port development is reset, when R20 shipbuilders no longer exist, and when everything we worked so hard to accomplish has been completely undone without any consideration for those such a decision would affect.

This is more like being reset to a toddler, but expecting the toddler to feed and take care of itself without any parents/funds/provisions, as the people who knew the game best and taught others how to play, no longer have that ability, and are looking at departing in droves.

@Guilder I don't think you and I need direction I think we can find our way without help or direction even from level 1 and those that don't know we can teach. Whike I understan you completely I just think we can persevere and with piracy and deck fixed as they say...I think we'll be fine we can rebuild the correctly we have the knowledge for sure all we need is the bodies...if there's any left but we'll see I'm not giving up and neither should you guys.

As BlakeC said: If you want your voice to be heard, contact info here: gamasutra.com/view/pressreleases/306350/UNCHARTED_WATERS_ONLINE_SETTING_SAIL_FOR_PAPAYA_PLAY.php

Contacting them and KOEI may do no good, or it may get their attention if enough of us do so. Of course, you can let your voices be heard in the official forums as well as Facebook, but so far we haven't gotten much response in either of those arenas. I don't see we have much to lose by trying, except maybe the few minutes it takes to write out our messages and send them.

CPC: If this reset goes through as planned, you're welcome to take the wheel at attempting to rebuild. I'll be jumping this sinking ship as with both my friends and possessions (which were more like happy mementos of my time playing UWO rather than tools to simplify gameplay to me) gone, I don't have much reason to stick around. Particularly not since now there will always be the fear that it could happen again in the future.

Look at this message they put...

Due to OGPlanet's discontinuation of service on September 29th, all Uncharted Waters data on their servers been lost. All previous player invested time and contributions to Uncharted Waters are very important to our team, and in order to receive your Founders Rewards, you must transfer your ID to Papaya Play through the provided transfer service.

That sounds a lot like OGP said F it we don't have enough time to pay people to back up all this crap Papaya it's on you. If that's what happened it isn't papaya fault it's OGP fault they got the money and ran off in 7 days.

So stop acting like YOU were the only ones who lost things I had many many many fine things and I lost them too only difference I'm no punk ass QUITTER! If OGP screwed up the game data I'm not quitting and neither should you.

When I had the forum up on OGP website to voice your opinion against the wipe MANY were silent how come?...They said I was causing drama and that a wipe would NEVER HAPPEN boy were they WRONG! I Told you guys to voice your opinion and Demand them to tell you if a wipe was occurring but noooooooo NOW you want to complain when it's to got damn late so blame yourself aswell IF you remained silent before the announcement of the wipe! You all got f*cked by OGP and you so scared of a little confrontation and "drama" you LET OGP GET AWAY WITH IT.

Anyway what's done is done I'm not quitting and I'm not going to cry AFTER the fact when it don't mean a got damn thing! The data is GONE they said so OGP deleted it as they said.

Perhaps it was indeed OGP's doing. (Though I wonder what would prompt them to do that; were they holding our data for ransom, and didn't get enough payment? Yet our username data was perfectly preserved. Strange.)

But Vertigo could very easily adjust the game data and recreate a lot of the information lost if they were so inclined. Myself, I've spoken out against server wipes before, and for this exact reason: they hurt everyone.

Even so, Vertigo has a choice on how to respond to this crisis, regardless of who is to blame. Trying to work with the players to restore lost content which could be documented and proven to exist? That would go a long way to smoothing over the situation. Proceeding with a full reset/relaunch? Well, that's going to cost them. Simple as that.

There's a slight complication with the papaya forum. Your first post needs to be approved by them before it appears. If it's criticizing recent developments or suggesting you won't be seen on that side of the fence, there's no guarantee it'll ever appear, even if it's polite and respectful. It's the limbo situation mine's in at the moment. Apparently only applies to first post. Bear it in mind, maybe you want to post something dummy to get through them at first.

Well as regards me, for the little that it's worth I won't be going all the way down from 75/81/80 to 0/1/0. It's been fun. So long and thanks for all the fish.

@Guilder what you said sounds exactly like what happened OGP probably wanted a lot of money for the server data possibly a ridiculous amount honestly. Based on their message that make the most sense...

Also while Papaya COULD attempt to recreate data you simply cant do so if you have no source of data it's like me drawing a picture then telling you to copy it but before you can copy I take the original pic and tear it up...that makes it impossible to copy it. Then on top of all that this type of transfer would take wayyyyy longer than 7 days so even if Papaya wanted to how could they possibly get all that data in 7 days before OGP deleted everything? It's impossiblr I think OGP is the real criminals here and they are LONG GONE now to do anything about it. It's Sad.

Also I wasn't snapping at you Guilder I was snapping on the people cursing at me for no reason. I respect you immensely and HOPE you return to rebuild the world.

Do they know how many hours and hours and hours and hours and hours and hours (Yes I’m going to continue because it’s true) and hours many players spent on that game? Losing all my money, fine, I can work back for it at worst case. Losing all my items, fine I guess, it’s really sucky, but can be worked again. But losing all skills progress? Adventure quests done? Even my friend list? It’s hard to swallow!

I worked so many hours to reach Rank 15 refined in all adventure skills, so many hours attacking NPC ships just to get Guard and gunnery refined and maxed again (I don’t even want to think of those who did them all). I never been a good producer, but those people who spent countless hours working to level up Sewing, Handicraft, Casting, trading skills, and oh god don’t forget Alchemy! I’m not even talking about Shipbuilding, Account, Marching, Rowing, Steering and definitely the most Overpowered skill Linguistic!! (Linguistic joke apart, all those skills, you’ll have to rework on them for many months).

As of the Adventure quests, I was about 85% of all quests completed, and I can tell you, I spent so much time sailing mindlessly, walking bore fully on lands, spending hours of using QMP just to finally find that impossible to find quest (I see you German footprint). I was a quest chain hunter, basically doing all quests that unlock another quest, trying to reach the end of each chains. Redoing all this work is a matter of a year! And that’s with the gear, character and ship I had! Now I’ll have to first work to get back a ship, skills and adventure gear for making things easier. (Oh God, I’m going to have to work again to become a Great Adventurer…)

Also, if they reset, many player will leave forever this game. Players who were supporting it, players working to make it nice, players who were there to help others. Reset the game, and I’m sure you’ll lose about 20 to 40% of old players. Not only will you lose old players, but you’ll also lose new potential players. Many new players live for like 1 week out of other players’ generosity since UWO start is harsh. They won’t be able to see what the game can really offer them, only seeing Barca everywhere and quit because they think the game is just too slow long and boring while in fact the game can offer you so much. You must also think that if you reset, many of the players who stayed but used to be pay player won’t be paying for the game anymore, felling like it’s just all dust in the wind. I’d say about 15% of the remaining players on the server will be (Technically, the % of player that won’t be paying is higher, I just don’t count the players who already left. Most likely, many of leaving players were people that used to pay but got mad getting all their money investment lost and who decided to never play the game again). Sure Uwo Economy suck right now, but do you think resetting the server will make things better? Things will just go back the same way if there’s no other changes than a reset.

But if you reset, you better solve Uwo problems and not just leave all the problems there. One of the well-known Uwo problem is that Ducats value is broken (It will be at one point on the restart). By broken I mean there’s a significantly higher % of money that’s made in the game than money spent. And that % is just crazy high. If you want to avoid it, you need to create appealing way for player to use their Ducats on NON Players stuff (Investment is nice, but definitely not enough). Examples. You could add a Special untradeable Ducats Ticket you can buy, I don’t know where (Major Cities?), which gives random loot with very low chances of ''good'' stuff. The more you invest into this ticket, the higher the chances it will give you something good. Limit it to a max of 1-3-5 times a day so people don’t abuse it too much. Add a World Ducats Donation weekly (Or others) reward, that when at end of that time period, everybody on the server get a bonus for the next time period (Example +10% skills points acquisition). Make the number atrocity high, expect that in the future, people will end up with more money (So making it like 100M is not a good idea for a high number, need to be higher than that by a lot). So either you make a super high donation number that cannot be broken by 1 single super rich player or you make it that each time the goal is reached the next goal is going to be upgraded to a higher number. (Or both together, but that’s just going to become an unused feature of the game if you do)

Also, there’s some small convenience that could be added to the game. A few of them: Make that Charioteer in Venice FINALY do something of his life and create a special carriage from Venice to Florence (Or Genoa, but Florence sound better). Even in old time there were more of a road between Venice/Florence/Pisa than Calais/Paris/Marseille. You should also change the search bar in Company Shops so they won’t be case sensitive and need full words. If you need Staff, find trusty willing players that already know the game and how it works. Many of Uwo Veterans would be super happy to be able to be part of UWO team for no advantages or payment. Make Piracy not a waste of time, cause right now, it pretty much: stay near EA, SEA, sink players only for notoriety and don’t even care if I have to give him back his trade goods cause I’m not going to go back with these goods.

But most importantly, Give these founder rewards and compensations for all they did for the game over the many past years, this way they might come back to the game even after the wipe. Ideas: Give them a permanent +5 Inventory slot. +3 Permanent skill slots. Permanent % increase for skills, exp, land speed (Don’t give sailing, would make it unfair for some events). Give a Founder starter pack. Not much, just a little something that will make life easier early. Give founders a 1 time access to a convenience option. Example: A 1 time per account access to an Aphrodite Mirror + Name change for one of your characters (They both used into 1 option, so you can’t use them separately). Give founders ability to put their name in a special colors (Of course not blue, red, green or orange). Special Founders daily Login. You don’t have to put them all, just find the ones you think the community will like the most while staying reasonable but remembering they just went over a giant Wipe. Ask the community, I’m sure you’ll hear lots of good ideas.

Overall, if the Founders perks are reasonable enough, I am willing to return to the game and work again to become a top percentage adventurer. But if the perk end up being something awful like: Here’s 5 Pirate Talisman (remember that gives 50 hours of bonus at total. Compared to the amounts of months many spends, it’s just an insult) 10 ribbons and a +1 shipbuilding trinket, you might not see me again :P. Sincerely, a player who’s been there since the release date of Uwo on Gpotatoe.

I actually went around collecting poem fragments. Almost got to 999... I guess this means my vintage Autosail Tow Permit won't carry over either. And I liked that collection of oddities I'd been building, too.

If it was a case of not paying OGP money for all the game data, then the ball and the blame is back in Vertigo's court for not valuing UWO enough to salvage the entire game/user database. Though that's just speculation, of course, since Vertigo has done very little to address the matter in-depth, and explain why there weren't data backups to use, or how data recovery wasn't an option, what the technical conflicts would've been, why our login information miraculously survived when nothing else did... oh, and I think it's very easy to recreate lost data when you can point to a video recording and say, "See this? My character name was W, my levels/skills were X, I owned Y ships with Z stats, and here's how many QMPs I owned, and the names of the bottle equipment I had as well, displayed quite clearly here in my bank vault." See? Easy.

Although it would be time consuming as well, I'd rather see the release delayed because the company which claims "we put users first, consistently reaching out to our gaming communities and keeping communication open" chose to hear the voice of the UWO player base and tried to save/recover what they could, rather than tune out them out entirely and move forward as if everything's going to be just fine.

Egw: It was an honor, friend. You were kind enough to help me and a good friend go adventuring in Southeast Asia when Japan first opened up, and we were just getting started. We'll always will look back on and cherish those times we got to play alongside you. Cheers.

Seems like my post in papaya forum isn't going to make it through, which makes it even less likely for me to be tempted to return. I'm not exactly impressed by censorship.

It took me several days for my first forum post to go through, and it wasn't even negative. Yours may yet go through in time, though I agree with the censorship concerns. (Actually, a great deal of Papaya Play/Vertigo behavior today has been concerning to me. Pity, really.)

And yes, I'm not mistaken in my recollections, LeVatiquois. It's only that I wasn't Guilder at the time. I've played under other names, trying something new each time, and having fun all the while. If this is indeed UWO's last hurrah, I suppose I'll just mention them all come "relaunch" day as part of my 'farewell address'. It was always my plan to reveal them over time anyway, but... well, anyway.

Fight the good fight, fellow UWO lovers. Come what may, it's been a pleasure these past five years.

I just hope Papayaland offers a good steady server. As for Papayaland policies.. not sure if I'm reading the ToS right, they said something about wiping out your account if it's inactive for a certain period of time. I know most players have quit and return to game countless of times within the last 3-4 yrs. Can someone clarify with this whether inactive Papayaland accounts will be wiped out...

Curious
10-05-2017

It pains me in a way to see so many long standing players announcing their permanent departure from the game, but it wasn't that unexpected, given the current situation. I am seriously considering leaving myself. I've been playing for over 4 years. Not too long after I first started and learned more about UWO, I mapped out a plan on what ships I wanted to get, I grinded for hundreds upon hundreds of hours until I finally started to reap the benefits. I finally got the Patrol Corvette and Survey Frigate I always wanted. I literally reached level 74 adventure the day before the server cut off. I had over 1900 individual discoveries. All this to say I don't even stand to lose the most from this, compared to other players. This wasn't just a game, it was a second life. And now, it's gone.

I will probably jump in for the first few days of the server relaunch, just to get an idea of what these founders rewards are and if I think UWO even has a chance of surviving given that there will most certainly be a much lower player count than what was on OGP for the past few months. But I will most likely move onto something else. Eve Online perhaps? At least that game doesn't seem to have any chance of getting shut off anytime soon...

Curious
10-05-2017

I *can* see the benefits to a server reset. It will be novel to see what it'll be like to be on even grounds with every other player, to see what it was like for the founding players of UWO to get it where it was during OGP's final hours. But the novel will slowly wear off when I realize that, to get back to where I was before, I will have to regain all 1900+ discoveries. It was fun the first time, but it will be nothing but a bore fest the second time. Why start a game from scratch when you've already done so in the past, especially considering there are many other games out there you could start from scratch, and it's a completely new and fresh experience?

The only thing that kept me going was the thought of how much time I had put in, how far I'd come, and the want to see my character through to the end game. To finally say I had discovered it all, I had maxed out my levels. Now, I have put in no time into the game, so what's even the point?

Guilder
10-05-2017

Won't really be like it was in the beginning, though. Back then people struggled and learned the game's workings together from a truly even playing field. With compensation items (whatever they may be) and intimate knowledge of how the game works, that will put any remaining older players at a distinct advantage over the newer ones, and most of the ones talking about staying right now are the 'we wish to pirate and steal people's items' variety. Their first stated goal is building the server back up, but only so they can then begin pillaging it. Sad, really.

Games like UWO do best when their players have something invested in them, such as hours of time, or gobs of money. Take that away, and watch them depart in droves... especially if they feel like they've been betrayed, as many of us do. I still encourage people affected by this decision to contact Papaya Play directly; on Facebook, I see efforts to reach KOEI-Tecmo were not entirely ignored, and they advised the same, as well as reaching OGPlanet, but also noting that "we will report your request to the relevant departments." That wasn't a "your opinion means nothing, go away" reply.

Loving this game as much as we did, don't we owe it to ourselves and the UWO of old to at least try sending some emails in an effort to save it? It's a choice you need to make for yourself, but I hope those talking about leaving will join in the effort just the same.

I will join UWO still in order to help the community in order to encourage newer players to continue on, but depending how the weight of the compensation becomes and how Papayaplay treats us, it may be possible for me to retire as well...

I have high expectations to them to get us back where we was. I will continue my role as well, but got pretty busy the first weeks...

To be fair, whoever came up with that idea I am very disappointed in them and players who are happy with the reset and mocks down the Veterans... well I wish goodluck for them cause it won't last that long if you chase them away. Many area's becomes inaccessable for a long term and unlocking EA may take 2 weeks at least alone...

I respect your determination and devotion, Gazi. But the figures I've seen suggest it'll be closer to many months before EA will be reopened; the friend who came up with them handles metrics for a living, and he's seldom been wrong about these things before.

Suffice it to say, a wipe of this magnitude, coupled with the veteran community being treated like dirt and driven off in droves, and the questionable behavior of Papaya/Vertigo in springing this on us... I honestly don't see UWO coming back from something like this.

It breaks my heart, and I hope I am wrong, but unless something changes due to our speaking out on the matter, this may well be the end of a truly wonderful game, at least on the international field.

I have not been here from the very beginning at all. However; I have put time, over 5 years in this game, Money Too much to even sit here and try to figure out.. and effort in refined skills as well. Really guys? Yes, I barely talked in world chat or anywhere else for that matter unless you took the time to talk to me in game you probably didn't even know I existed.

I had bottle ships, tons of really rare outfits I collected over the years and many MANY refined skills. I would leave the game from time to time due to RL or what have you but always came back. The thing that I will miss the most is my friends. You can work back skills, we will most likely be starting back with nothing developed, but the loss of so many good players may have an impact that cant recover from. I will miss my company m8s Specially Sp00ky and Rag. You guys were the greatest.
I will be restarting but with the 6-month inactivity rule, in the game and with leaving and coming back, I may lose my account all together which will suck for anyone that has to go away for any period of time. There were also times I left the game due to things like, well I hit a brick wall.. I could not go any further until they added Greenland in the charts, then SF once those 2 came I was set and could continue my rounds. It's been a great run through everyone. See those of you in game that will be coming back and for those of you who choose to move on, you will be sorely missed.

I hope to see you in game if not, it was nice sharing the experiences with you all in UWO through Netmarble and OGP.

I cannot post on the other forum right now either but I think someday I will be able to.

Seriously though - their forum is rudimentary at best, posts take hours to show up, they don't communicate what's going on, how and why and they're about to wipe a game for the second time (or did I read it right that it'll be the third?).

Putting aside all else, am I supposed to trust a business like that? Looks more like a flying circus at first impressions.

Willow: I saw you from time to time. We never talked, but I have been around about as long as you, accumulated prized possessions that were not only handy boosters or good ships, but served as mementos of my journey; each one a fond memory of a time, place, or adventure I had. To lose all of that, along with the community that made UWO so great to begin with... I am sorry for your losses, truly. Take care in whatever you do from this point on.

Egw: No, I don't trust Vertigo either at this point. The argument has been made that by remaining silent on the server wipe in their news release, by which time the legal details were fully agreed to and ironed out and signed, they enabled OGPlanet to rob people with Astro purchases one last time.

And it is actually only robbery because of the wipe; if the transfer went like it did in times past with data kept intact, then those last Astro investments wouldn't have been wasted. Their forums are also vastly inferior to OGP, which is pretty amazing, all things considered. And so far, no responses in those forums or on Facebook that I can see. It'll be interesting to see how they and KOEI-Tecmo respond to my emails...

We're already in trouble, and the new host hasn't even relaunched yet. According to some sources, a player (unknown who it is at this time) will be our GM. And we know how that works out. Don't be surprised when we find out it's Mr. CoolWind himself (although this time maybe he'll be upfront about it).

On one side, we've got OGP who made a player a GM so that he could abuse his power for the betterment of his friends, refused to advertise the game, literally committed theft from players in the last week of service, wiped all data and then sold it off to the highest bidder. On the other side, we have a company making promises that will never be realized, giving out crummy astro item packages to replace years worth of work and potentially thousands of dollars of input, and already keeping players in the dark about the truth to what happened to their accounts.

And we all know WHY that data was really "Lost". The reason the game did so poorly under OGP's watch is that they were poor stewards of the game by not advertising in any way/shape/form. They even held "design an advertisement" competition, and never used the winning entry on any MMORPG website, as part of the ruse! Over time, veteran players amassed a large amount of wealth, and didn't need to purchase astro items, but the lack of incoming players lead to lack of revenue. By resetting the server, OGP/Papaya (whoever is at fault here) ensured that ALL players were no longer veterans and WOULD have to spend money to regrind. If that's not shady, I don't know what is.

This is the end, folks. I give the game another 6 months, tops. There's just not enough time or people left to make it happen, and in today's gaming market, the draw for UWO is simply not sustainable. Better not to waste our time and money here.

Forge tools and 100m ducat checks. And only for certain players, and the amount of rewards depends on past server job levels, automatically giving some players more rewards than others. So much for the reset putting everyone on the same, balanced level. And exactly how did they get data for our character levels if the server data was lost/corrupted? I'm really wondering about Papaya at this point. Looks like others are, too:

Thing is, this system works because it knows who our chars/toons are, right down to which login they were connected to. And in the event of "multiple characters, the one with the highest total level will be used" to decide the rewards.

Sounds to me like they still have our data, can check it at any time, and could recover what we've supposedly already lost. Why should we restart if that's an option? The argument's even been made that all those videos and screenshots we made could be used to recover our lost assets in that case. Papaya can always say no, but it sure looks like they do have it in their power to do this, and that would prevent a lot of people from leaving like they currently plan to due to their years worth of losses.

It does seem pretty suspicious that Papaya would be able to check our levels but claim that everything else has been lost. Did they do this from before perhaps?

BonnyLass
10-07-2017

I'll rephrase what I said slightly. If they have that much information from before, what else do they have? I don't think they could get rid of that data before it comes time to relaunch at least, for the sake of OGP founder transfer confirmations. I don't even see a deadline to transfer for the founder rewards; is there one? I think we all ought to ask Papaya about recovery options, because while I didn't have 100b worth of assets, the things I did own were more precious to me than these founder items. And surely recovering at least our possessions isn't more unreasonable than adding forge tools to the game on day one; I don't hate them as some do, but think it strange those could be given out, while the rest of our loot of old would be discarded.

Hawthorne

It would seem that our data was never lost, but rather Papaya did not want to take the time to implement proper game balance and wealth sinks. This is a severe reaction on their part to a problem that many only present itself again in the months and years to come.

From what ive seen and read,our account info was never lost. I personally feel papaya have forced the server wipe to keep the peace with la tale players after they had all their progress erased and game reset. We never had this issue after the NM migration yet new players came in and stuck around to be successful. The game didn't need a wipe to be rebalanced or to attract new players,it could have been rebalanced without a wipe and new players will always come into the game after a relaunch on another server. Everyone should feel robbed,we have been!

In view of the latest developments and decided to do the following:
1. Despite the anger I still have with all this has happened, I will continue playing uwo, but for a subject of affection that for another reason, and is that I had never been so hooked with another game of this type, , in spite of everything, I will continue playing.
2. Guardia Real has been the first Spanish-speaking company of the game with more than 6 years of history in UWO so, as the last director of GR I am obliged to keep the name of this company, so I can barely open a new Guardia Real.
3. People who decide not to continue playing, is understandable and are in their right, what is important is the friendship that we have and that we form thanks to this game, so make the decision you make, I wish you lots of luck and success.
That being said, I will be thinking how to remake rokradicted, and hope that the reward items promised by uwo papaya are worth it. And the chances are that I start to do tutorials in Spanish for new players, because like many of the veteran UWO players, I plan to stay to provide help and support to the newbies with the experience that I have gained throughout my 5 years of game.

Thank you for all my dear friends.

Sincerely,

Rokradicted

They said technical nature, not technical problem. That answer all questions

Guilder
10-08-2017

That doesn't really explain the full details of the technical nature, and at best just makes it sound like Papaya felt it was too hard for them to bother trying to preserve UWO. They have also been caught in contradictions in their statements, which suggests lying to and misleading the user base. And it doesn't come close to answering all our questions.

Guilder

I know that will not now, nor will I ever financially support a company that has shown a complete disregard for the rich history of this game and the wonderful people who made it so great to play. While I respect that some will try to rebuild, UWO will never be the same game I and so many others fell in love with. Still holding out hope that they might reconsider if they hear from enough players, but at this point it's not looking good.

Enough you emotional shipwreck. You and the rest of those who complain about their items and progress are a clear example of someone who never read ToS. You don't own anything on the account(s) that you're using. All of the data ,atm , belongs to papaya and if they say data is lost, then it's lost, there is nothing you or anyone else can do about it.

It's just plain stupid to believe that because few people who know about the game have left, immediately game is dead. I've been around for years, I've lost stuft aswell but I got over it. It's nothing more than a bussines for them, and if I get to play UWO again then a server wipe is fine with me. Or course that does mean that I most likely won't be buying anything from them in a long time, but the game is still there.

And on a final note, to all of those who say that the game won't be the same. No it won't be same for you. Just like many of the older players joined when the server wasn't developed and unlocked, who's to say that there won't be a new flock of players who will do all of that again? If all you cared about are items, achievemnts and moments that only affect you, then please leave. There is no need for your hypocrisy and selfishness.

In fact, many of us care because this loss affects everyone, not just ourselves. It's also very troubling for a company to start things off by being even worse than OGPlanet, and for them to be about as honest since they clearly do have the data. If you read exactly what they've said, their statements boil down to, "OGP lost their data; we have it so we can figure out your rewards, but are not motivated or competent enough to carry it over."

There may be a new flock of folks coming to play the game, but who's to say they won't be experiencing this same heartache due to a future reset made over their wishes, wiping out their hard work due to an unclear understanding of the game, and a short-sighted grab for cash item sales?

Me, I'm aware of how ToS work. But I'm also aware that for a game as dated as UWO, demolishing the existing user base who loved the game enough to throw their money and time to support it, destroying many their emotional ties to the game and any reasons to continue playing or financing its operation... then that bodes poorly for UWO's future.

If you plan to keep playing, that's fine. I'd rather invest my resources in a more reliable source. I probably should've done that from the beginning and just never played UWO at all, though I remain grateful for the friendships I made in my time here, and for the people I was able to help.

10 days to go before we find out for sure where this is all leading, I suppose.

Whether better or worse, moment of truth lies on 18 October. This wipe has thrown a lot of loyal players (including myself) to distrust with the game host establishment. Whatever uncertainty that lies ahead, we can't say for sure now with this very lack of communication between players and Papayaland. Whatever reasons Papaya comes out this time, this better be good..

fyi... the Founder Packs (Tier 1-4) though.. for OGP players thank God we still have a chance to get this pack... for Steam users.. RIP... not even eligible for Founder Pack reimbursement. It's like all Steam users are completely ignored. I think those players took the most hit in this server wipe.

Pawel
10-09-2017

Since i cant post on Papaya since none of my stuff is "approved".
No i wont be coming back to the game. I consider what has been done as theft. The data was not corrupt, the company simply decided to make more money by deleting all content and selling its own boosters from shop. It also lied from the beginning. Sorry to all old friends and enemies alike, was fun while the game lasted. As to all who remain positive and supportive of Papaya. You have been fucked right from the start.

@Kosevo: It is possible to contact Papaya directly if you have a user account and open a support ticket. Of course, I'm still waiting to hear back from them, and I wouldn't be surprised if they're ignoring those too. As to the founder packs, Battousai made a compelling argument that they are just meant to get folks re-addicted. "The first hit's always free," or something like that.

@Pawel: At this point it seems like they're trying to do damage control and keep as many negative posts from flooding the forums as they can, otherwise we'd see just how many people are actually trying to call them out over this move; that, or it's yet another sign of what to expect from Papaya's management style in days to come. Troubling to see either way.

I'm sorry to see yet another player decide to go; thank you for your fine service to UWO in the past, wish it could've ended better for you than this, and hope you find better things in the future. Take care. ('Cheers' feels wrong at this point in time.)

@Morro: Hopefully they won't come back and try to take them away from you in the future for "violations" of some imaginary sort. Consider saving your confirmation emails, etc., just in case.

Originally I was planning to eat the loss and start anew. But not being able to participate on the official forums has been frustrating. Days later, only one of my comments has been approved. I opened a support ticket yesterday but have heard nothing. I don't expect that will change. It doesn't make me want to play the game when I can't even be a part of the community.

I wish there was a better unofficial forum where players could gather. I enjoy this site, but it goes down occasionally and may not come back up one day. There is a subreddit for UWO over at Reddit that's inactive, but I think it lends itself better to discussion than this place or the official forums.

Egw
10-09-2017

It works in a very weird way. In my case, I needed approval for my first 4 posts. From the 5th onwards I am posting directly. Either 5 is the magic number or some approver clicks something that gives you the privilege to post as soon as they think you're safe enough.

Either way, it's a joke of a forum that gives the impression that the company behind it is a joke of a company.

Egw
10-09-2017

Well it seems like enough hardcore players have accepted the developments. I really don't know what they're thinking, but it seems to be so *shrugs*. That means it's time for the rest of us to steer away from Papaya/ivyro/UWO. Been debating posting a farewell thread on their forum, but what's the point? I've never been into actively attracting attention to myself.

Personally I won't be logging in at all on Oct 18th or ever after, it's over for me. I have a bitter taste in my mouth but I'll survive :). So long!

Our server don't need a reset. I've went to the Taiwan server, and personally, I think our server is fine as it is even in ogp days. I thought that the problems we have are exaggerated by some toons. We do have pvps, and items plundering and deck battle are just subjective issues. In any case, these should be all fixable without a wipe. There is so much content and future updates to keep all existing players playing, but yet now, there could be 1-3 years of lost time to get our characters back to where we are before the wipe, if you are still playing. It is just disappointing that Papaya din understand the game and choose the easy way out.

I won't be coming back to the game too. I had anticipated a wipe to our levels and skills when opg announced the transfer, but I was hoping that we are able keep our ships and items. I know for sure many veterans take pride in them. These are not just cash ships and items, but to some, perfectly moded ships and painfully acquired items. I would have come to terms if only levels and skills are reset, but UWO is such a deep game, it is not just individually about levels, skills, ships, gears, discoveries, techs. For Papaya to take away all these, to me it protrays arrogance and disrespectful to UWO. I do not know how much Papaya has considered for this decision, but it suggests future wipes. There is no security. I won't invest time and money in this game as long as Papaya takes charge and will only log in to meet up with old comp mates.

@Pawel, I'm glad to fight alongside you in esf! Sorry, I'm often slow and died. But it was fun in day 3 hobart, the 1st british isles esf this yr where we defended all forts and the 2nd british isles esf where basically our side is against the whole world. I enjoy fighting difficult battles, and it should be something I should working on, and not grinding from 0. But it won't be happening.

Guilder
10-10-2017

@al_yan: Cheers, and Godspeed to you, mate. Remember that Papaya has a 6 months inactivity clause or something like that, then data is purged, so try to avoid that for as long as you still feel like coming around to visit any old friends you may have. I wish you well in your journeys and voyages from this point on. The words you speak are quite similar to ones I feel in my heart, particularly concerning Papaya's handling of things, and if this keeps up, it'll probably be time for me to leave as well.

The head of Vertigo for North America is from OGP (transitioned in 2014) as is at least some of their staff. These guys go way back and run in the same circles if you dig into their profiles and work histories. I'm not too sure the game didn't just change addresses and the management style will be substantially the same from the top, if not some of the actual same staff running it day to day.

@Hawthorne: I hate to sound cynical, but I think we've already seen how UWO will be handled. Forum-wise, we've got people on both sides of the UWO debate, or just those plain wanting to chat/help, still waiting to be heard while things like this can get through with no trouble:

forum.papayaplay.com/index.php?p=/discussion/359136/quickbooks-customer-service-helpline-number

Concerning UWO itself, La Tale showed us their transition plan, even though WarRock's users got to keep everything they worked to build, earn, and buy, giving us false hope the same would apply to UWO.

warrock.papayaplay.com/warrock.do?tp=news.view&postid=1346

As for the game's future, I hear some people saying to 'move on' and 'forget the past; focus on the future'. Trouble is, 'Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.' But the present is pretty telling, too. Not simply with how UWO users are being treated, and it is a raw deal even to those who are willing to continue on, but with Papaya's handling of yet another one of their games:

forum.papayaplay.com/index.php?p=/discussion/359112/if-papaya-does-another-bad-move-or-goes-by-any-form-even-more-p2w-we-really-need-to-stop-playing
forum.papayaplay.com/index.php?p=/discussion/359070/my-last-words-for-this-game

That, along with Roiber's news, leads me to think UWO's future doesn't look all that bright at this point. Still hoping to be proven wrong, but...

Ahoy everyone!! Gotta love when you go on vacation and come back and find the game youve spent months and months is gone and went to another company. I have left and come back twice, restarted both times, started with netmarble, took an extended break, and came back during OGP. Now the chance to play this amazing game from the beginning, no power players, no insanely powerful pirates, everyone at the same level, that is amazing to me!!! Guess what everyone, this is a game, if you dropped $1000s of dollars on stuff for the game to make it "easier" for you, that is on you, nobody made you buy stuff. Everybody lost stuff, its a game, shit happens, would you rather the game be fully gone?? Yes the forum sucks, Now. Maybe in the future theyll work out the bugs, who knows. Has any one of you managed an mmorpg that switched company's and all the trouble that comes with it? Not I, said this guy. As for support tickets, I logged in OGP thru facebook, pain in the ass for this switch. sent a support ticket, 3 days later got a response with a link to fill out for steam and facebook users. I look forward to sailing with the Hardcore's and the Noobs, oh wait, we're all gonna be fricken Noobs!!! lol :D anyways, see you all in 4 days

I'm probably going to predict how Seville will be like on Day 1, and these are probably the players whom we might meet:

1) Newbie characters swimming around port to port (moved on and regrinding)
2) Newbie characters sitting around in Seville protesting against the wipe out.
3) Maybe 1 or 2 trollers..

Whatever it is, wipe has been done and no matter how much one can keep continue to complain about all our months and years of effort wasted, I don't think Papayaland will bring back our high level/rank characters and our expensive ships. There is no point protesting, protesting to Papaya is like trying to push a concrete wall. Papayaland has ignored us from the forums, and they will probably ignore everyone.

I used to invest a lot during OGP and NetMarble time, but although I will still be moving on and regrind back up slowly, I probably won't be spending much again this time. Papaya has violated our user's trust. Quit and boycott, or continue play newbie again and shut it. We got to look reality now. No matter how much one can keep arguing with Papaya, your voice will fall onto deaf ears of Papayaland.

I'm also just as disappointed as everyone else.

10-15-2017

I agree with Rufas and Kosevo, though I'm still bugging Papaya2Win in support tickets about their choice. Even if it fails, I'll be glad to know I tried. If the wipe really does go through, I know I won't be around past a short period to say goodbye to some lingering friends, and to grind enough fame so I can see how my nation story ended. (I know I can read the script here on ivyro, but it's not the same.) It's a shame; I loved UWO, and I loved the community, but neither will be the same after this.

I am most pissed off about my Rowing skill getting reset. That took me like a year to grind,, everything else (except for my ANG) is replaceable but refined rank 20 rowing is a real kick in the nuts to have and re-do over..

I did opened a ticket to plea my case but I doubt it will be heard.

Roiber
10-16-2017

Since I seem to still be muzzled on the forums, I will post here. I am still having the same problems as most of you posting to the forums. Always subject to approval, and takes 3 days for any post of mine to show up if at all, and usually after they are so buried in the thread no one will see them or the post will be out of context.

I agree with Rufas, Guilder, and many others on here. Nothing justifies flushing seven years of grinding and world development (not to mention all the out of print/unobtainable items that got lost). some skills are easily re-ground, but others like refined rowing (I feel for you Cash) will be nightmares to redo.

This is not like most games where the environment is static and its just the player skill/levels that change. Its going to take a long time just to get the environment back to where it was, port development, etc. Releasing the next patch was near pointless as no one will have the skills, fame, or levels to even access the content.

Anyone who thinks this reset will fix the economy and rebalance the game is naive. This puts the cash players at a huge advantage because now a cash player doesn't have to catch up to anyone who might have been around grinding for years. He or she can buy the lead and keep the lead.

I will give it a run because I enjoyed the game, but the community was a big part of why I enjoyed it. Now that community is split into two camps more vicious that politics I am not sure how long it will last or how long my patience will hold. I feel like I am reliving the election and post election toxicity all over again...

It's a shame the way GAMA ended. A heads up should have been given so we could at least take some screens and vids. Of course they milked you guys for astros right up til the end instead. Blame Koei for allowing these crooked companies to use the license.

I doubt papaya will be different but who knows. We'll probably lose quite a few people but don't underestimate how many players will be coming for a fresh start from the various regions this game operates in. Netmarble and OGP both left a huge swath of disaffected players waiting for a change and us English speaking loud mouths are a minority even on GAMA.

And they wouldn't be wiping if they didn't want to gamble that it'd be good for business. GAMA was mostly dead. Wiping was the harder decision, much easier to just copy paste the server data and keep whale milking.

And who knows, maybe we get a better game out of it? Maybe we get cut recipes, MA rewards, and oxfords back in the game.

And when was the last time you were excited to jump into an Iron TLG? 5th broadside with fusion this time around, woo!

Call me cynical... but could explain the OP Viking Event Prizes that OGP offered, that nearly everyone was farming for two weeks, just before the game went pop... OGP must of known then that the writing was on the wall, and was having a laugh at our expense.

However I will try the PP version, reading between the lines from Guilder's post PP have a P2W philosophy, I will use up the founders rewards initially and see what the state of the game is then. Currently it is a F2P game, and while it is like that; that is how I will play the game; one thing is for certain I will not be spending ANY RL cash again!

/!\ Quick little news /!\

~~~Changements in the Founder Rewards~~~

-There has been an increasement of the number of talisment for Rank 3 Founder (4 talisment of each kinds unstead of 3) and rank 4 Founder(6 of each unstead of 4).

-A new talisment is added in game and in Founder rewards: Battle King's Talisment. Utility still unknown but judging by the name and new PVP ship and land battle functions, I think they might be linked. You'll get as many of them as your other talisments.

-Another item added in founder rewards: Finesse aquisition intruction. You'll get none at rank 1 founder, 1 at rank 2, 2 at 3 and 3 FAI at rank 4. Will realy help players to get back these painfull to get techs.

~~~Forum~~~

-GMBenya is now present on the forum, and told that papaya would work on people tickets and the forum itself once UWO would be smootly launched, since their first priority is to make the game avalaible for everyone.

~~~Game~~~

-The game will be officialy avalaible to play at around 4PM PDT. Login may take a few moment due to the number of players that will log in at the same time to the game.

-There is a curently known bug by Papaya Play that occur on the installation of the game if using a 32b exploitation system making impossible to finish (And even start) the installation. It's possible this bug to not be solved in time for the official release, making 32b users having to wait a bit longer to actualy join the game.

-Alts/Toons account will be tolerated, using the same rules as before making it a maximum of 3 toons running per Players.

That's pretty much the news. Have fun in the game!

10-18-2017

For you players who aint quitting UWO after the wipe by Papaya the Scammer(yes, lying to take things away from people is scamming), all the luck for you.

But be aware before you spend in this game:
The contract with Koei lasts 1 year.
Papaya wont keep uwo if it isnt profitting. And it wont.

So I doubt that UWO will last more than that yearly contract. I'd be very surprised if it makes 2 years.

Just trying to help some people to make better informed decisions.

Alert!

Enternal and GinDracon are already up to their old scamming/trolling habits. Enternal is PMing players at random, offering horrible rates on items. GinDracon is doing the same. They are both in/around Seville regularly.

Warn your new players to avoid these low life losers.

Do not do business with these 3rd world trash.

Do not let them borrow anything!!

These "players" are infamous scammers, for years now. Don't let them ruin the game already for players by robbing them.

I wish you all well for the future, but seeing the reset was every bit as bad as I feared it would be, and having no trust in Papaya Play, I don't plan on hanging around past seeing my nation's storyline, and maybe one or two other small projects. Here's to those halcyon days of GAMA; long may they live in memory. Cheers.

When the 2x3x event ends?
I remember it was said to end at November 29th 11:59 PM PST, but it is still on.

Correct. Because it's currently October, not November.

The experience boost event ended yesterday at midnight Papaya Standard Time, as Hawthorne stated. Correct me if I'm wrong (I will apologize if I am), but it also seems that there is now no boost at all. I only mention this because OGPlanet had instituted a permanent 1.5 skill boost for all players, and an experience/fame boost (2x, wasn't it?) for players under level 40 in adventure, trade, and battle to help alleviate the tedium of early level grinding. Perhaps this is another one of those changes Papaya believes long-time fans of the game are sure to appreciate?

@Visitor: Indeed, we are back to vanilla EXP/Fame/proficiency rates as they used to be back in the day.

I won't make any pro- or anti-P2 arguments here. But back in the day, NetMarble used to have special events that lasted anywhere from two days to a week where EXP, fame and/or proficiency rates would be boosted. I can't say for sure if we will have such events under P2, but it's not entirely implausible.

@BonnyLass and anyone else who cares: NetMarbles boosts were not once in a blue moon. They happened all the time sometime twice a month, always once a month. On that note the boost were WAY better sometimes as much as 4x prof. IF Papaya does plan to bring that back, I feel no ill will towards it.

As for you people that seem to want to add in that you are leaving the game or some crap every post you make, leave. The game will be healthier without you. Myself and MANY other players will be here to help foster the growth of new players.

cool story bro. The only time NM did more than 2x on prof/xp/fame was when they had major major (major) connectivity issues. Ogp spoiled us with perma 1.5, we have come to expect it now. We dont' seem to remember what it's like to have 1.0

This draw for any game to me is to have some kind of sense of achievement, and all I seem to hear is a lot of people wanting it to be easier. Why have a grind at all, just put a button in the middle of Seville and blammo r15 on every skill.

Making the game easier is the best way to kill it, enjoy it while we have it ffs.
