Hello.
a question, all that muds are fully accessible?
I only played  alter aeon, materiamagica, miriani, prometheus: the eternal wars, clok mud and flux world.
Greetings and thanks.

Hello.
thanks by your reply.
Greetings.

hi connor. what's the connection info for wayfar?

End of the line is interesting. As is that mud with around 1000000 levels and dragonball based thing...I think it was called uh. I can't remember. but there were all these dragonball themed races and you could choose one and it had missions and reincarnations and stuff...wish I could remember.
Tsunami is another good one. You can try storm hunters too. lost souls is interesting if you have the patients for it. Retromud is fun too. Ifmud is a server you can play interactive fiction on, just because they felt like hosting one. 7th plane is interesting for the crafting. Aarchon is stoc, but they've got a cool remort system. Batmud is cool but last I checked the overworld map was inaccessible. 3Scapes is an offshoot of 3k. They have no-qinfo-sharing rules, if you're into that. Um...I think the dragon ball was called dragon ball: evolution. I remember the address being evolution.wolfpaw.net. The unoficial squaresoft mud is based in the final fantasy series and secret of mana. You should probably check it out. Ancient anguish is lp, which for most times means fun and unique content. Eternal fantasy is another final fantasy thing. There was one called new moon or something, it's kind of fun I guess. You do quests. Similar is asylum. It's kind of hard in that you can die whenever the world wants to laugh at you, but still it's cool. Um...I can't really remember any more right now.

@Wyvern, why play single player on a mud? because at the moment muds are the largest rpg games accessible. Believe me, I'd love! to play a single player rpg where I got to be the main character and have a story for them, but there just isn't much of that sort of thing out there, so muds are the best substitute you can find at the moment. This is why I still admire alteraeon sinse unlike materiamagica and several others you can! solo quite successfully and don't have to group at all. Personally, I'm not into grouping much less rp sinse I! want to explore the world myself, enjoy the atmosphere and descriptions and not be dragged around or have others depend upon me, I don't mind if other people want to group, different strokes etc, however I don't like the idea of being forced to just to progress. I'll admit that even though hack n slash games like Aardwolf are pretty wysiwyg as far as they go I'm quite happy with them for a quick blast just for the world and tasks and such, providing the writing is there. Of course if the writing or atmosphere doesn't appeal to me, the game wont' either, which was my issue with cyber assault. Actually while a game with interesting abilities and locations and activities is great of course, I'm quite happy to do a monster pounder provided the description and atmosphere is there.

Anyway, enough woffle,  The website for Wayfar144 is Here That will tell you all about the connection info.
I did enjoy wayfar, but I found once my colony was setup I lost much interest in the game, plus I still!wish the developer would make   a way to search for certain biomes specifically and know where they are other than using the ascii map (you don't need it for movement at all but unfortunately it's the only way to see what biomes are around you). It's a bit of a pest having to run all over a massive planet looking for some sand! . 

I should give the game another go though sinse I did have a lot of fun building different devices and seeing my colony go from a hut in the wilderness to a full industrial complex. Then again for that sort of wilderness exploring and survival I much prefer Clok these days, despite the very different setting.

Empire mud's website is Here I will confess I had a rather bad experience with the game, but again I need to give it another try.

Another mud I have tried recently is frandom, website Here and topic in new releases Here
It's got a rather unique approach sinse while combat is farely rudimentary, combat is not the game's focus, it's all about the quests and tasks and exploring which is nice indeed. It rather reminds me of a very large dos style rpg game, though a little less random.

Antoher game I enjoyed is six dragons, which has some great access fixes and crafting, but I don't know where development is with that one. website is Here

A really nice and well described world, with lots of different races, and some great exploration, a shame development seems to have fallen off.

I'll admit I'm not up on muds as much as some people, indeed rampant miriani style piracy or inforced rp puts me off a lot of space games (one reason I'm really! looking forward to stellar aeon), but I have had some fun with muds none the less.

Sorry Fabi. I forgot that while I did  go and find the new link to the game, that was on my desktop which then whent caputski.  Try this one

Actually I wish the dev would come back on site for a discussion, sinse I'd love to chat about the game,  particularly sinse while I got through the tutorial fine once I didn't the second time, and it's a game which really could do with more players especially for crafting and trading crafted items.

I don't want this to turn into a 'go forth and rant about why I hate <insert controversial mud here>' topic but... I never saw any sort of cohesive atmosphere on aardwolf. Iirc you can fight a slice of watermelon somewhere, and go into some weird outer space thing... it's just silly. But... whatever.

Muds are pretty much all accessible, I don't think I've ever seen a mud that uses 100% graphics, to the point where it's unplayable. You might get stuff where you can't entirely remove the prompt or something silly like that, but as far as I know, the most you'll get with graphics on muds is ascii descriptions, and you'll generally get a text one, too. There are graphical muds, but I've always felt that those are separate enough from mu*s to be some sort of far removed subcategory.

As for new muds... Could you be a bit more specific? What exactly is it that you're looking for in a mud? Pvp? Stock diku hackNslash? RP? Crafting? There are muds (multi-user dungeons) and then there are sort of... branches of that, like mush (multi-user shared hallucination... or something like that) and muc, which stands for something I can't recall right now. Those are more rp oriented, and I think I could suggest a few if that's what you're in to. Before the dawn (contemporary setting, draws inspiration from stuff like Dresden, and some other stuff, Dresden is the only one I'm familiar with), burning post 2 (inquisition, with actual mages and demons and all the related baggage that it implies. It's very realistic and very entertaining. You can even be a bard and wander around telling crazy stories, or a chimerest, scientist, and annoy the religious masses by ranting about geometry and how you've just come up with this innovative new concept called radians... and hope you don't get burned as a heretic...). It's very hard to suggest rp intensive stuff like this because it depends on what you're interested. I could give you a diverse list and still miss what kind of setting you like to rp in completely.

  As for muds, lost souls is really great if you're willing to take the time to learn. Fair warning though, you will die a lot before you start doing things right, and I don't think anyone has ever successfully played their first character -- I got myself blown up by enough displeased deities enough times that the amount of gold required to fix me was just unreasonable. I've played aethar which is a lot more generic but not bad for its genericness, seventh plane (lots of skill/spell grinding, especially as a mage), empire mud (now in beta, very unique, with lots of building, crafting, city management, and balanced pvp and mob slaying), four dimensions (very awesome puzzles, great descriptions, some really unique stuff, like driving around vehicles, or charging around in the primeval forests of post-history wielding a laser rifle... and, did I mention, the puzzles/quest/writing are all very amazing)... ponders... end of time (somewhat FF oriented, but everything is well documented, so it's not intrusive if you don't know anything about Squaresoft), yugioh (cool game, but I wish more work would get done on it *nudge*hopefullythedeveloperisreadingthis*nudge*). Those are all the ones I can think of that grabbed my interest meaningfully, but I could probably look through this giant folder and scrounge up a couple others.

Sorry for the rambling post, and I hope you find a mud that you enjoy! (Mud connector has great filters for finding muds, and top mud sites too, although they have lots and lots of dead muds, so I usually use TMC if there's something not-so-specific that I'm looking for.)

@Soulkeeper:   Ah, if I remember right, I walked in when you were trying to summon one of Cthulhu's followers, and got psychically exploded...violently.  Fun times.

   The Mud connector, and Topmudsites website are useful in finding muds you want.  If its based off codebases for mud types, or certain atagories of themes or games, it'll help you find one...hopefully fairly active or populated. 

    @Dark:  Something tells me you haven't gone very far on the mainland then.  The soloing aspect tends to die really really fast after a while of exploring areas outside of Ralnoth.  You'll reach places that'll hit you multiple times for 300-400 damage a hit, through sanc, and require more and more equipment that are also blocked by ungodly brutal (and cheap) mobs.  It'll reach a point unless you are going to join groups to get those pieces, exploring some of the areas becomes a hellish affair.  IN all honesty, soloing those areas takes an approach of more number stat grinding and item collecting, vs exploring.  Asking someone where the obscure pieces that do not always load tends to reward better than finding stuff you get from exploration as again, some hints and entrances are obscure enough to be missed easily even if actively searching.

....Also Altaraeon relies way too much on equipment, and I already voiced my opinions on equipment heavy muds like that.  The fact your nothing without wearing the underpants of power also leads to difficulty when your set does not match the area difficulty, despite having the levels for it.

    I found muds that were not so eq heavy tended to have much more solo chances.  7th Plain was not as eq heavy, as armors and weapons were built from natural resources, and the default crafts of the stuff tended to be fine.  Going into magical enchanting is where things got different, but most of these were useful mainly for elements one was not resistant to, or weak.  Lost souls I already wentover with equipment relying on your own abilities/stats/skilsl and not defining you.  And a few other muds like Hellmoo, or Wayfar also rely on your natural skill and stat spread for the items and weapons to provide bonuses.  Thing I noted from these muds is tha it's doable to solo harder areas on your own if you are setup to take it on properly.  But the fact strength comes from self-improvement instead of hunting down items from all corners of the hellish lands they reside in, one can realistically play solo on these muds from creation to retirement, mainly using groups to exp faster or have fun with friends. 

    Oi, my wandering mud examiner self is being challenge by Dhruv and Soulkeeper.  I thought I went around more than most people, I was wrong.  If I have to throw another mud that might be interesting, I suggest helping Revive GodwarsII.  Granted, the main coder seems to be M.I.A due to having a child, and the place is empty.  But haing a fairly balanced PK mud active again would be fun, and the combat system is very very different from most muds as it's active combat instead of passive.  Stuff like attack with a weapon requires you to imput a command instead of being automatic hits, along with raising your defensive guards higher, and special combat and power attacks.  Still slightly wish the lich class was worked on before the family hiatus, but it's understandable for the absence.

im interested in any anime pvp muds with sound packs that people my have played before like dragon ball or bleach. also are there any card game pvp muds other than yugioh out there? thanks for any suggestions

Hey all,
One mud I can say I play is avalon rpg it use  to be a payed mud, but they just recently made it free to play. This mud has many different classes, player run citys and god orders and a warfare system, and you can craft stuff and their is magic classes as well alot of fun we have a few blind players on their that do very well. avalon-rpg.com port 23 If you have questions, just ask. and also they have a very very helpful player base and gods as well.
Thanks
Kevin Roberts

hi, please recommend good starwars mud anyone. Thanks.

That's personally my problem with Avilon. They say it's super craft oriented, great rp, but all I saw in the half a month or so I was on there was pvp, 'u want help with er class' and stuff about gemquests (also pvp). SO yeah there's rp, but all of it seems to be in one way or another conflict oriented, which sucks. Anyways, have you tried out empire mud?
