really u would do that?

What you all said about invasion strategies... all I know is that I am now really angry that fishing isnt out. Its been long enough. I dont care if they are a few bugs, I want it out.

Normally I am very patient, but I think 4 weeks of waiting (or is it 5?) is enough.

I'm going to steer away from the actual topic for a moment to clear something up, and I'll get back on, just so you know.

Viewing the phase files is not hacking. A hack would be something like changing your pirates level to 100 and giving him the lost sword of el patron without actually receiving it. There's a difference between changing things to make your game play better, and just viewing the phase files.

Second, you CAN'T get in trouble for it, because for them to know you did it would mean they have control over your computer, and know what you do. This is usually illegal, and unless you tell them you do it, there's no way of knowing.

Back on topic, let's look on the bright side of this distraction. The Raven's Cove text is about stopping Jolly Roger, because he's cut off the rum supply. Maybe this is the first step to start rolling out ravens cove information? Such as, the next news may say something like, "No matter how much we try, we can't stop Jolly Roger and his invasions. Even worse, he's now cut off the rum supply for Jack Sparrow, and eventually he'll have to come out of hiding."

I am not going to get involved in this... *backs away slowly*

Anyways, harder invasions? I wouldn't like that very much. Hard enough as it is....

I always use a musket on Jolly. If you back to the very edge of its range, (when the circle turns yellow, you'll have to use Take Aim then) it puts you out of his range. If the circle turns red, start backing up. Or else you're taking a trip to jail. I tend to use Hex Eater Shot, use my Holy Musket with infinite silver (at least, I think it's the Holy Musket!,) when he's half down, bring out the silver and finish him off. I was amazed at the noon invasion.... We were at Jolly, most everyone was doing 1-10 points of damage. Heard a lot of mistimed cutlasses though. Using my musket with silver shot, I was doing 1500 points of damage easily. There were a few others using muskets, but I couldn't see what kind of damage they were doing. Evil green fog!

Well, I have a few easy suggestions for invasions: Shoot first, ask questions later, and if you shoot a friend... be a friend and put them out of their misery..

As far as updates go... eh, I can wait a little longer.

You are NOT a hacker for looking in the phase files. Disney gives them to you! If Disney didn't want you to see them, they wouldn't make them open to the public. Hundreds of people would be banned for hacking the phase files already if Disney didn't want you to see them.

About the update, I would rather that all bugs were fixed first before they release it. I don't want to crash the game or get stuck in a weird postion. Be patient for this update because it is a major update.

At this point, It should just be released, even with a few bugs. We have all been waiting way too long for this, and bugs will get reported and hopefully fixed much faster on live.

realse it already!

Still they HAVE to fix the bugs because little things can go to big major not fun things you have to think developing these features must take lots of work.
Patience.

Hmm, well okay. We know, kill jolly roger. Lol.

Uh, if they release it with bugs they then have to go back and fix said bugs. Which may interfere in unexpected ways on the live servers. Test is specifically for that, testing. To fix bugs before they hit live. I'll let the testers do their job and let D do theirs. I could care less about this update anyway, it's just so much more fluff anyway.

As for all the distractions from the lack of updates. Isn't this update just another distraction from the lack of a second story chapter?

It is a distraction JM, but the sooner this gets out, the sooner RAVENS COVE is out. And I know that we all want Raven's Cove. Do you know how many testers there are? Not too many mate. If they release the update with a few minor bugs, live players can report them, and they will be noticed by the players much faster, considering there are around..... 10,000x more. This has been on test forever, and I really want to be able to fish and get those throwing knives. Its taking way too long. More and more people are quitting the game because they just arent releasing fast enough. Disney should just put each update on test for 1-3 weeks, focus on getting those bugs fixed ONLY for that time period (except developers, who should be ready to release that next update after this update hits live), and after that time, they should just release it, and clear out those last few little bugs while its on live. I mean seriously, this has been on test for A MONTH now. If it isnt out next week I will probably have to send them a complaint email.

Normally I dont usually rant like this, but I really am impatient for this update now. Its taking longer than most players are willing to wait.

Complaints will not work on Disney. Your going to have to relax like I said making these features take time and plus little things can lead to major bad things if these bugs are not fixed. They have so much other stuff to work on like the second chapter but only they can work on these updates for little times a month because they want to release a few things at the same time. If you get frusrated alot then why play (not to flare up on anything). Patience is the key. Just relax and wait. :smiley-rpg028:

A distraction is better than nothing (I'd prefer a strongest guild event than a month of silence), either way it's still going to be on Test. And the sooner it is out, that doesn't mean Ravens Cove will come any sooner. For all we know, it could take a month for them to get it ready to even go on Test.

Live is not meant for testing the game. Those on Live are there to, play. I don't know anyone on Live that spends their time reporting bugs, unless they are on Test. Releasing the bugs on Live could be a problem too, you never know when they may have to have a reset, and doing so on Live would be a bad move.

Well if people aren't willing to wait, they should do something else until it is released. Plus, there have been months without updates, and people are impatient waiting one month for yet another, mini-game and a few daggers (that, unlike the months without updates, is already on Test)?

This is why i quit potco is their updates stink they take to long and there are better games out there
