Five on Friday - July 31, 2009
You mentioned you have an intern working on stygian abyss. What all do you have interns for? Im sure many people are interested in working on UO or taking a look behind the scenes.
Electronic Arts has a great internship program. Ultima Online was able to get one of those interns this summer. He has been working directly with the engineering team on Stygian Abyss.

Will Gargoyles be able to use pack animals when mining and collecting wood if there crafters/gatherers?
Absolutely. Gargoyles can have the same pets humans and elves do. They simply cannot ride them.

Will the SA expansion for 2d users be patched the same way that ML was patched?
We plan to patch up all existing classic (2d) client installs to support the Stygian Abyss expansion. In other words, you shouldn’t need to download a new installer to access the expansion content. This could change however. If it does, we will let you know!
