There are two things I really don't like about Kingshead.

Number one is the enormous disruption caused by the invulnerability glitch.
Number two is the inability to switch servers. Put me on the darn dock, not Padres Del Fuego!

But there are dozens of reasons to love Kingshead:

Super-cool high level enemies everywhere.
Good mix of low-level mobs on the lower field.
KH invulnerability glitch is mostly limited to that island; most of the truly disruptive idiots don't know how to get off the island with it.
The glorious archway entrance. The beautiful 5-arch archway.
The level 35s in the maze section near the gallows.
A jail with a guard who is not asleep!
The exciting, terrifying challenge to level 20s, just trying to get their grenades for the first time.
The deceptively similar forts; similar enough to confuse the heck out of ya.
The mysterious "safe room" with all those things to search.
The fence!
An introductory quest that takes you through more than half the island.

I could go on and on, I suppose. Its coolness is unfortunately overshadowed completely, by the two items listed atop.

Having played for 7 months, I have had the 1st problem only 1 time ever and I use KH for leveling alot. How are people using the glitch causing a disruption? In my case it was an individual being inconsiderate and disrupting what we were doing. They could have done it just as well without glitching. Its not the glitch, its the people causing disruption thats the problem. Guns dont kill people, people kill people.


Would definately be nice if we could change servers and remain there (once there). ;)

Did ya Know in RL there is a Isla Grenada actually named Grenada and its in the caribean I think but its was actually first conquered by the French and later conquered by the U.S and another Caribean Island but yea just sharing it.

Dr. Zeppers 10-03-2008 06:40 PM

Its also a spanish city, funny thing.. I just learned this.

I thought he was referring to the island of Grenada the whole time.

Its fairly well known, the U.S. invaded it 25 years ago.

Yep, Grenada was the inspiration for my "Spanish" island. Since there wasn't really a good name for a "French" isalnd, I just incorporated the weapon into the island name.

BTW, if you want to see a movie about the Grenada invasion to rescue American students/civilians, watch Heartbreak Ridge with Clint Eastwood. iirc, it also has Mario Van Peebles in it.

Well Rackat they cant make Grenada Spanish since Spain never invaded or Actually Claimed Grenada Isla Grenada would have to be Carib, French, British, or American but whats funny about Grenada is they had a Fort named FORT ROYAL guess what island that rhymes with.

I will admit I do hate lag and sometimes I must island hop because of lag when a gernaid goes off especially.

I'm not fond of hey lets disable this weapon! However I like giving the French and the Spanish a main fort island. However lets step it up one notch let's give the British their own too. Hear me out on this one I know you might be thinking but KH. KH I feel is more of the EITC's base of operations. So in theory since the EITC is a trading company they would have agents from all European countries on their sides. Giving another island for example give it a name like "St. James" I am pretty sure that was a British colony in the Caribbean back in the golden age of piracy.

Also on that note, this gave me a cool idea of (not races like in a game like warcraft) but certainly something similar.

1) Padres del Fuego is I believe a Spanish name (though my language skills are a bit rough being out of school for a while now.) So how about making that fort a Spanish fort?
2) Why would we do this? Simply to give the Caribbean ore flavor. If each island lets say has three for each faction, 3 French, 3 British and so on it gives the options of a - more quests and b - the possibility of how NPCs react to you. If during privateering your taking on more French ships and go to a French Island you are really going to be saught after then if you were on the French side.

Either way I like the idea of giving nations their own KH island.
