One of the things that really bugs me about the new version is the placement of the tonics which you use by typing a "T" I wonder just how many tonics has been taken because people forget to use the enter key before they start typing? I know that I, for one, have kept those gypsies in business. In case you did not know yet, most of the gypsies on the islands now sell the tonic, which is a little pricey. As is the case with all items you need to purchase.

It seems the Pidgely quest is bugged and you cannot advance (after killing 13 of those Navy buggers!)

The Will Daggar quest works great now, however Lizzy falls a little short on her training for the use of it. But with practice it becomes easier to use. I love throwing that Asp!

Teleportation must be earned to go to the major islands. When you get to Level 12 notoriety, Tia will offer the teleport to Cuba. That was one of the easiest totems to earn and a necessity in this game!

Most of the NPC have received an update with regard to their looks. Plus there are many new NPC I have noticed around the Islands! Will have to upgrade my manual extensively!

Have received many "whispers' from fellow pirates which appear to say "blah blah blah blah" Might have something to do with not actually using a friend code (as in Toontown). Was wondering if anyone actually received a normal whisper?

The Voodoo Doll is the greatest thing since sliced bread! Several of us have leveled up by attacking the undead relentlessly while one of our party "cures" us while we fight. This will certainly come in handy since many of the enemies seem to have extremely high levels.

I wish there was a way to scroll through the list of your hearties easier and really wish you could remain in someone's crew even after a crash. It would be nice if everyone in a guild could automatically teleport to each other without having to add their name to the friend list as well. That would cut down on a lot of the repeat of names.

But most importantly, for me anyway, it is so good to be back sailing the high seas! Thanks, Disney and all of you that worked so hard on the game during our hiatus!

See you in the game!:dancetl6:

Tell me about it!!! I have wasted so many tonics doing this!!! I can only imagine when I reach a higher notoriety and using higher lvl tonics...I'm suuuure gonna be even more upset. lol

The 13 navy ships? I advanced ok with that quest. hmm

I LOVE the dagger as well! With the way my character spins it in his hands. It's quick, it keeps the enemies stunned and you can hit them first from afar. I just got the "Fight Dirty" skill which throws dirt in their faces and blinds them for 10 seconds. Love it!!! Helps fighting higher lvl enemies a little easier now.


DITTO! Found that frustrating as well.

I have a lot of the same issues as most here. However I do not hear anyone talking about the low frame rates. Anything under 30 is not good. I average about 17 FPS and I have a decent machine and T3 speeds in connection.

Also the latency that is experienced when you approach an island. If you have no ships around it is usually a 2 or 3 second hiccup. But one time I was fighting and there were 4 ships near. I got a bit close to the island and it took over 20 seconds for the island graphics to sharpen. Needless to say I was sunk and never saw the battle end.

Yes the latency and frame rates have improved, but it is not good enough.

I mostly notice the lag when in battle with ships or other characters. The health and characters do not aways respond.

I also noticed another good thing, the cost of repair a sunk ship has gone down yet again, so no more 28 gold :)

I can walk, and turn just fine in a shop... BUT in the game, all that other stuff starts downloading, my frame rates drop to under "3" UGH!!!

The only thing that saves me is the dagger... I don't have to move much, they come looking for me.

I don't think they can fix the lagggg unless you move onto your own spot of the server for the game play (like when you are in a shop), and there would be too many players to do that... They might be stalling for faster servers.

How good of a game should you have for 10 million dollars..?

They bought Club Penguin for 350 million dollars... that is a lot of millions, and look at the graphics for that game...

A lot of the issues with lag stem from syncronization issues. I see this most prominently when my wife and I are playing together. The POC network is not the fastest or the software that is in beta is just not finely tuned yet. ToonTown suffered the same thing years ago too. And this game is written off of the same platform too.
