LOL! :D Well, can't argue that - it is new... and with my last ounce of hope maybe we'll see it before I've passed on from this world to the next! ;)

Swash, notice the picture. Doesn't it resemble that island Jack was on at the beginning of the second POTC movie? You know... that creepy island with the people in cages? It's the one Jack sailed away from in the coffin.

Now, if I'm right, then I'm more excited than I would be if this picture wasn't provided. I think it's great that they're finally bringing in more content.

To tell you the truth, I'm holding in all my excitement. All of us have waited for a while and I know it will be worth even another month or two of wait. I just don't want to give my hopes up if it's not going to be something really good. I think I'll take my excitement out on leveling up my dagger, grenades, and staff. If new weapons are coming then I want to have them all mastered before they come out.

Im not sure if they will have new weapons. For Dell you use the F#1-6 for weapons, F7 for options.

They did say the will have weapon UPGRADES!

But who knows cant wait either way!:Cannons_skull_icon:

That's what I meant, lol. I probably should have said that!:laughks2:

Like Swash said, it's still NEW! I can't wait for all of this to come out. Looks great.

And look at that shiney new GOLD sword....
MUCH better than my old square silver sword!:degen:

swashbuckler II 07-15-2009 01:02 AM

You know what I want? Alot of different swords with different stats, low swinging speed/high attack power, or High swinging speed/low attack power. And so on.

Since I've already done my two gold coins worth in the News Thread - I'll just leave it at that :)

Hey there Savvy Pirate! The screen shot you're referring to with the skeletons is actually a sneak peek at the new cave environments! And by the way, that's an in-game screen shot - NOT a loading screen. Pretty exciting don't you think mates?

Machazzard 07-15-2009 03:54 AM

Aye jason, i was just about to post that from Roberta. Truly exciting. Here i was thinking that they weren't going to make pirate lairs. They are really stepping it up and my heart just soared when i read that. Pirate caves are one of the main things i was looking forward to. And...... to top that off, they will look like the screenshot, depending on your graphics card but still. WOW WOW WOW WOW AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! is all i have to say.

Ship Customization. The Kraken. Loot & Inventory. Pirate Lairs. New Islands. New Quests. We have gotten a lot of good ideas from you, our players. Now which of these are you looking forward to the most?
This leads me to believe that they're going to be working on the one thing that the players want more than anything else.(Probably the Kraken)

--------------------------------
Simon, in this thread we're asking you to choose the one thing that you would like to see us work on next. While some design and development work has been done on Kraken and ship customization, neither are planned for the immediate future. To get a sneak peek at what the Pirates Online development team is currently working and is planned for future releases, take a look at the most recent Developer Diary.
[sarcasm]What, no Kraken or ship customization before summer!? That's unacceptable.[/sarcasm] Hopefully we'll get something that will keep us busy before these big updates.
From what I've read, if they're not going to release the Kraken or ship customization soon, then they may save that as a two year anniversary for October of this year. It's been... what, a year since some decent content came out?(Note: Content, not bug fixes or improvements) I know others may not be able to wait the rest of the year but I think I can. Only if they decide to release some side stuff before the end of summer.

all i got from this is that the caves will be getting a face lift. just like PR and the rest of the uplifted islands.

Though I believe the enemy L43 screenshot looks like its in-game, the cave entrance looks just like the Port Royal loading screen....

So I'll be staying by m'word until I actually see the update. :)

A nice touch I think would be variety of weapon looks, even if they did the same damage - just something to personalize... because otherwise, that would probably create a stats nightmare for them to add.

But, if you want a scimitar or katana or fencing sword instead of a cutlass - the blacksmith could offer them. Granted, in real life they all do different damage - but just give us more individuality.

AND where is my eye patch, dang it? I want Eliza to look like Daryl Hannah in Kill Bill...

Shnoodell 07-15-2009 01:38 PM

Hey im glad to see there actually talking in there news updates more like people to people again rather than beating around the bush and making us mad. If they go through with this ive got to find a way to earn a tiny bit o money -__-..... OOO they should have waited to give the free month till new cotent came out, that woudl be much better marketing business.
