In the few minutes since my last post:

Got booted, total game crash.
Then the "report a bug" screen totally locked up my puter.
Had to do a full reboot!

Trying to get back ingame now.

And thank-you Max, that was exactly what I meant.

First edit:
Happened again, Every time I click on another pirate, or on a name in my guild list, CRASH!
Gues we aren't allowed to teleport, whisper, or anything like that anymore!
(Not being able to whisper isn't necessarlty a bad thing, IMO.) LOL

Second edit:
Still happening, every time I click on a pirate, or if I click on a name in friends/guild list, I crash. I've been booted 6 times so far.
And this is regular game play, not the test server

Has anyone considered that there may have been a drunken, disconted, malcontent at Disney last nite? LOL!

"I know how to fix these buggers! I'll just give everyone a Test account! Hah! You want new content? Here's Port Royal for ya pal!"

LOL - that's great Rackat.

Well, I followed the link through the grog blog and am definitely on the test server.

I'm just playing the game as I normally would (questing) while looking for issues.

I guess my question to people who've had a test account for a while is how nit-picky should I be? I noticed a minor graphics (block hand a'la the "I Want My MTV" video) issue and a text script error getting my compass from Tia Dalma. Is that too small to report?

NOTHING is too small to report.

Nope! In fact - I'd send it twice (espically the script issue) - just to make sure they herd you :D Send ANYTHING in that you find - otherwise... if a bug is found in the forest, does anybody hear?" ;)

Basil Dreadflint 01-30-2009 06:55 PM

There are bugs in the forest???????

And, yes, I agree, anything you find, ANYTHING, is worth reporting.

One thing I forget to do is proofread. I'm so used to reading typo in chat, I tend to not really look for things like that.

Great info guys/gals. I will be sure to be meticulous and report, report and report. I truly hope the majority of the folks signing up for the Test Server are doing so for the sole purpose of TESTING and REPORTING. I'm sure we'll have a % of those just wanting in to see what is out there before it releases. My opinion on this is, if you sign up for Test Server access....participate in feedback for improvement purposes. Anything else is just a waste of time. I'd much rather have a roll out to main servers as bug free as possible. Nothing more aggravating then crashing in the middle of playing a game. Well, perhaps crashing in the middle of a game and spilling a drink on your lap...that could be worse....lol

The link is now gone from the grog blog so I assume no more test invites?

Basil Dreadflint 01-30-2009 08:32 PM

Totally unfair for those in school, or adults who work for a living!!

How were they supposed to load the program to their home pc's when they are at work!

Hope those that were able to get it are a fair representation of those who play the game! I.e. a good mix of players of all ages and all levels!

swashbuckler II 01-30-2009 08:49 PM

wierd, the day I get my test server invite for my main acc, They open it to everyone. lol

Fillyteen 01-30-2009 09:00 PM

what about thoose who are already on the test since the begining of the game when it was made, that is also unfair

Erich Uchiha 01-30-2009 09:00 PM

Sweet! Can't wait to join! Remember Partners In Crime has a test guild :)

Will Badbreaker 01-30-2009 09:40 PM

I'm disappointed since I can't seem to get access to the test server now. Really poor time to release it when most are at work or school. Its not even on the grog blog now.

Chris 01-30-2009 09:49 PM

Aye will i agree i have been waiting for 13 months to join test server and the one open chance the have im in school.

Erich Uchiha 01-30-2009 10:28 PM

-Sigh- Now its gone, gosh can't they think about kids who go to school...
