Greetings Everyone,
I would like to start off todays letter by telling the Izumo players I am sorry for having to cut short the Meet and Greet and finish answering their questions.
Q1,海賊酒やバラのお酒をスタックできるようにしてほしい
A,これは簡単な修正ではありません。
Q2,フルーツを絞ってジュース作れるようにして！（ノンアルコール）
A,それは素晴らしいアイデアです！
Q3,プレイヤーが制作できるお料理を増やして！
A,是非とも新たな食品やレシピ、料理などを含む農業ブースターパックを考えてみたいと思います。
Q4,家の腐敗速度を元にに戻して下さい！
A,それはすでに5日間に戻しました。
Q5,地面に置いたアイテムの腐敗時間が短縮されました。
元は２時間強だったのが1時間前後くらいになりました。
これはバグですか？もしバグであれば早めに修正してください。
A,これはバグではありません。ゲーム内でのクラッシュを防ぐ為に意図的に行われました。
Q6,私の言いたいことは非英語圏と英語圏にある人々の情報入手における問題点です。
去年までは開発からのコメント、バグリポートなどはEAJを介するという形で行われていました
しかし、EAJがUOに関わらなくなってから、我々は情報をhttp://www.uo.comから得ています。
ここに問題点があるのです。
あなたたちはuo.comでアナウンスしながら、詳細についてはUO Straticsでコメントしています。
このことをuo.comに反映したりしないのは何故だろうか？
最近で言うならば、転送の盾による転送を制限したことを告知しました。
そのことをUO StraticsでMr.Bleakが詳細についてコメントしてましたが、数日して、制限を無くしたことをUO Straticsにてアナウンスしました。
でも、uo.comではこのことをアナウンスいないのです。
これではuo.comのみを見ている人は転送の盾による転送は2週間制限のままだと思ってしまうでしょう。
今後の私達がuo.com見るのは間違いないだろうけど、その全員がUO Straticsも見るとは限らないのです。
もし、UO Straticsで重要なことをアナウンスするのなら全てuo.comの方に記事として載せて貰えませんか？
あなたたちは開発でもあり、プレイヤーへ今後の情報を発信する報道機関です。
私のお願いは情報発信先を一元化することで非英語圏でも触れやすくしてほしいのです。
A,私たちは非英語圏のプレイヤーの不満を理解しています。
Webページを再構築する為にUOの知識を持ったWebデザイナーを見つける事に手間取っていましたが、やっと見つける事が出来ました。
私たちはuo.comの変更計画を進めるだけではなく、うまくいけば日本語、韓国語、中国語、ドイツ語に変換されるようになるでしょう。
そうすれば進捗状況を更新し、皆さんと情報を共有する事が出来るようになります。
もちろん日本公式サイトのアーカイブが失われることはありません。
1)I want to stack the moonshines of pirate and bottle of single.
This is not a simple fix, we will look into it and get back to you .
2)Please do make a fruit juice.(non-alcoholic)
Great Idea!
3)I want to cook many kinds of more.Please increase the item type that can be cooking.
We would love to do a Farming Booster pack with new foods and recipes and things to grow and cook.
4)Please return the decay time of the house.
It was returned to the 5 days.
5)Disappearance time was shortened when placed in the ground objects.(it has been changed to about 60-80mins from a over 2hours.)
Is it bug?Please correct quickly if it is bug.
This is not a bug it was done on purpose to fix a crash in the game.
6)sorry,No,6 is long.
What I mean is the problem of where to find information of people in the English-speaking and non-English speaking.
Comments from development, such as bug reports had been made in the form of mediating EA Japan until last year.
However, EA Japan is from no longer matter to the Ultima Online, we have gained from uo.com (information).
However, I have a problem here.
You guys commented in UO Stratics For more information, even while public relations in uo.com.
It’s not reflected in or uo.com this thing and Why?
If you say recently, it was announced that it has restricted the character transfer by the 14th Anniversary Shard Shields.
Mr.Bleak had commented on the detail in the UO Stratics about it, but in a few days, it was announced at the UO Stratics that it has an unlimited.
But, it’s not announce this thing in uo.com.
Who have seen only uo.com will become thought the character transfer by the 14th Anniversary Shard Shields function and remains of two weeks in this limit.
All of us in the future to see uo.com undoubtedly, but it’s not necessarily all of them and also see UO Stratics.
Would not get to put as an article towards the uo.com all if, if to announce that it is important in the UO Stratics?
There is also in development, you guys are news organizations that transmit information in the future to the player.
Ask my’d make it easier to touch in non-English-speaking by centralizing information destination.
We understand the frustration of the non- English speaking players, I am sorry it has taken us so long to find a web designer that we feel has the love and knowledge of UO to help us redo our Web page but we have finally found one and are really excited. As we go forward with the planning changes on UO.COM we are planning to have the site not only translate to Japanese but hopefully to Korean, Chinese and German. I will keep everyone updated on our progress as we make it. I want to make sure the Japanese players also know we have the archived Japanese site so it will not be lost.
The UO Team would like to invite everyone to join us for a State of the UO Address on Wednesday 17th September at 7pm EST.
If you would like to have us answer any questions you may have that you have always wanted to ask us please submit them by email towraithbroadsword@gmail.com or on the thread generated by this post on stratics forums over the next two days after which the thread will be locked.

Thank you!
UO Team
Good Afternoon everyone,
The UO team wants to wish everyone a Happy Labor Day on Monday, please be safe if you are driving!
We are excited to release an update to TC1 for Vice vs Virtue. In this update we have introduced the following,
At the beginning of each battle three altars will spawn within the City.
Shortly after the match begins, the action feed will display a message to “Fight for the Altar!”
An arrow will direct you towards the location of the altar.
The objective is to be the only guild or alliance on the altar and successfully prevent enemies from stepping onto the altar.
As time passes columns of fire will shoot up from the altar, igniting the four braziers surrounding the altar.
When all 4 braziers have been lit, the guild or alliance that successfully held the altar will receive points.
If at any time an enemy guild steps onto the altar progress will be reset.
After a short period of time the action feed will display a message to again, “Fight for the Altar!” and the process repeats.
Please note there is a known issue with the EC and how the arrow is displayed pointing to the location of the altar, this will be fixed in the next publish to TC1.
We look forward to hearing your feedback on this new VvV mechanic!
Thanks everyone!!!!
Good afternoon everyone,
We will be having an extended maintenance tomorrow on Oceania to preform some required maintenance. This should only extend the maintenance time by an hour.
We are also looking to start Advisor training on TC1 so please be kind to them when you see them. We are also looking to publish phase 2 of Vice and Virtue which includes the removal of Factions. We have fixed the crash issue related to the traders quest.
We are changing the boat decay back to the normal 14 day decay rate, starting tonight with Japan’s regular maintanence cycle, all other shards will get this during their normal maintenance cycle.
Please be aware that if you try to do a character transfer from a Japanese shard to a US shard during this time you will not be able to due to the fact they will be out of sync. Please hold off till all shards have received this update tomorrow.
Thank you.
Good morning everyone,
We have experienced some issues with the backup on Yamato hanging up causing issues and not allowing players to log in. To fix this we are having to do a 7.5 hour revert on Yamato. We have currently taking it down and are working to get it back up. We are sorry for the inconvience and will get it back up as soon as possible.
Thank you,
UO Team

Good Afternoon Everyone,
With everything going on I thought I would take a few moments and let you guys know what we have been up to.
Kyronix and I just got back from Orlando Florida. We were invited to speak at SyndCon and get a chance to talk about what we are doing and get alot of feedback from the players face to face. It’s always nice to put faces to the names, and be able to talk to you guys in person. We really enjoy having any chance to do this, thank you! We would like to take this chance to give a big shout out to The Syndicate for adding another year to their record, Congrats!!
On a different note, we would like to thank everyone for your patience while we worked out the shield transfer token fix. We are still taking care of a few loose ends and hope to have most of it finished by the end of this week.
We are working on an update to hopefully publish TC1 this week so we look forward to your feedback. Please keep an eye on UO.Com for the updated notes.
We are doing a Backpack Art Contest only on the shards that do not have owners to the Abyss Houses. Please check our facebook page for the rules to the contest and the shards which will be eligible.
We will be sending out more invites to join the Internal Vice vs Viture Focus group this week. Please check your emails and respond as soon as possible.
Last but not least, I am sure everyone has seen an increase in the decay rate of items on the ground, houses, and boats. This is due to a fix we had to put in for a shard crash. Due to the fact that the house decay does not give players enough time to move their items from one house to another, we are going to be putting in another patch to change this. Players will have 5 days for a house to decay.
Till next time, see you in Britannia!
Bonnie “Mesanna” Armstrong
