Hasn't been an update on uthgard since March. Might as well consider the project dead in the diaper.

That's nothing compared to how long it took for Kunark to be released on P99, or how long it's taking for Velious to be released either. It's better to wait for a functional server, as opposed to a buggy server which doesn't last, like Origins/Genesis, wouldn't you agree?

Those of you who played P99 since it's release know exactly what I'm talking about. Uthgard used to be buggy as hell too, it took them quite a long time to iron it out into the masterpiece of a classic DAoC server it became over the years, just like P99 is still being patched up even 5 years down the line. Both servers actually have alot more in common than most people realize.

Sure Genesis is still up and running, but that massive population the server had when it first came up 6 months ago (1300+), has dwindled down substantially (under 200.) Cause once all the excitement of a new server dies down, people realize it's not as much fun as they thought it would be; to play a buggy server with corrupt admins who don't care about maintaining the classic atmosphere whatsoever. Once Uthgard is back up and running again, the Genesis population will most likely drop down to double digits, or cease to exist entirely unless they also do a revamp of their own.
