No set time yet, so keep an eye out for an update!

Hello..
I need some help or info on how to get my old account back up running..

Yesterday I downloaded the Myst Online: Uru Live from Fileplanet.com and ran into some problems - the 2 missing dll but someone from Facebook page helped me on how to fix this problem. I got this issue resolved but ran into another problem. I can't log in to go into the Myst game.

I used to play this game for a few years. I believed that I last played this in late 2013 or early 2014. So I assume that I still have my old account on the server or somewhere. Is there someone that I need to contact to get my old account back up running?

Thank you for any info or help you can give me!

Hello all !

Im also a returning player, played MOUL some hmm... 3 years ago i think, around there anyway.
And i really want to come back but problem is i totally forgot my account name and im not SURE about which email i used for my old account.

I PM-ed to Tor'i some minutes ago and asked (begged more

) if he/she can create a new account for me.

But account creation should be online, its a severe hit for the game (ANY game) if new players cant join the game.
New players not being able to join the game its like saying "we closed the doors and soon we turn off the lights also".
I really hope this is not the case for such a unique and beautiful MMO !
This game has what almost all of the games out there dont have - a heart and a soul !
And its absolutely amazing in today's gaming industry - think at it please

I don't think there are that many genuinely "new" players around - most of the new account requests are more likely to come from existing players wanting further avatars (for lots of different reasons). The problem is that the game is essentially being offered "free" but dealing with spurious accounts costs time (which Cyan have very little of) and money (and the donation fund has never been exactly replete with cash).

Your account name is your email address so if you at least know which addresses you might have used, Cyan should be able to determine which one relates to a genuine account. You might then need to give some additional information to demonstrate that it is your account.

People come and go in MMO's, breaks are made, others game tried out, real life, etc ETC...
No one can seriously expect someone to play 24/7/365 without making any breaks or comebacks, ESPECIALLY during longer periods of time (months and years) and ESPECIALLY in today's MMO gaming market.
Deleting accounts or suspending them just because they havent played in a while its brutal and not very practiced for a MMO, actually its not practiced at all almost.

This is my case also, i played the game some years ago and took a break, and now i want to come back and dedicate myself again to the game and make new friends and explore and solve the world together (my old friends from years ago im 99.99% sure they are not playing anymore).

And why would new accounts cost Cyan money and effort ?
Its just access to the game and the server(s), thats all.
How can donations increase if new players cant even make an account ?
Or how can the game have success in these conditions ?
To disable account creation is the #1 method of suicide for a MMO.

Personally, i would love for someone to actually explain the actual reason(s) and "logic" of closing down account creation, but in a clear way.
Account creation offline is THE biggest puzzle this game ever had and has absolutely no logic unless the game its preparing to get shutdown for good.
In that case it would be somehow logical.

I send a PM to Tor'i and Chogon asking whether they could make an account for a friend of mine whose excited to try it (She wasn't able to PM herself). It would be a shame if she had to wait several days so I hope someone could look at the PM's as soon as possible and make her an account. I included the e-mail address in the PM. It would be greatly appreciated!

Hello, I'm a long-time fan of the Myst series and I remember trying the demo for URU long long ago . At any rate just popped in to say Hi and ask if accounts are still being generated for MOULa. I found that Uru was alive and well when searching through a MMO gaming sites list of games. When I saw it I just had to play

I've already pm'd an admin for a new account, and I realize it's the weekend. WHen reading though this thread I noticed a couple folk saying that accounts were not being created but that a while back . Any info would be much appreciated .

Thank you in advance,

Fatedson

The last time I spoke to Chogon was the same day he made this post on the subject: viewtopic.php?p=422806#p422806, and at that time account creation was still on "lockdown" - I've no reason to think anything has changed in the interim, but I guess there's no harm in asking.

How long would it be offline and is there some solution to fix it? :roll:
