does anyone noes were can I find a quest. I am level 17 and finished pirate life and clothing fit for a pirate?

The attitudes of most in these competitive forums leaves alot to be desired.
With 'competition' tends to come players that show off, brag, boast about their abilities (which mean nothing to me.. pure dribble IMO)
Despite my success in such venues I left highly competitive shooter games to play POTCO to avoid such action and attitude.

I dislike cheating even more so... as it completely ruins PvP and SvS when its taking place.

From what i've read.. seems that Max is pretty close with the 'needs balance' idea.

I read about people complaining about people using voodoo, etc.. and well to me trying to eliminate these options is taking away from the game. All weapons should be allowed, or it should be something that can be controlled when initiating the match that is agreed upon by all players, not just a gentlemans(or womans) agreement, but something that can be set/controlled in the matchup system itself. If I were into the PvP arena, I would definately want to be able to use all the weapons the game gives you. Being a gamer from the shooter arena originally, I have been in many competitive games when my opponent had high powered weaponry, and I had little more than a pistol or knife. You learn strategies to make them work! ;) Also.. theres the fight fire with fire approach. They use the doll, you use the doll.. I dont see an issue there. If you chose to develop your cutlass, and not the doll, and an opponent uses their doll to beat you, it wasnt them cheating. It was your choice not to develop doll that cost you.

I completely agree Zep not sure where some players got the idea its cheating to use doll, nades, staff. That you should only use blades. We are pirates so whatever nonglitch way you choose to fight should be acceptable.

I agree with Zep too - you're given a variety of weapons, you may as well use them. I can understand why dolls can be unfair - dolls usually means running around like a chicken with its head cut off, which of course can present a problem even if both players are using dolls.

As far as staffs, nades, pistol, I don't understand how any of them present an unfair advantage. I think Zep put it quite well - if I want to use it, I've trained it and it's not my concern that my opponent may or may not have.

The no tonics "rule" is nothing short of laughable IMO.

Anyway, I tried PvP for a spell and gave it up rather quickly. It's not for me, and I doubt it ever will be.

I never understood allowing tonics in PvP in the first place.... why they just don't "disable" tonics while in PvP surprises me... it solves that whole issue :)

Exactly. Theoretically, both players use a tonic, they both regain the same amount of health, the fight is prolonged but the outcome is unchanged.

On another note, the one thing I do like about PvP is the fact that the ammo used returns after the fight. At least that's how it was last time I played... which was a good while back...

If they were really smart - they could go one step further with this and make the system:
- Equal Weapons: Match only those with the same weapons in a match, so if your missing Dagger or Staff for example - you wouldn't end up with anyone with those weapons
- Equal Power: Set all weapons to One Point options befor starting a match, then give 30 seconds to all players to put extra points where they want - it would be interesting to see what combinations people choose without hurting their "everyday weapons points" configurations
and still my favorite:
- Equal Options: Allow the PvP "maker" a series of check-box options in making the game before start to choose what weapons and other options are allowed in that PvP :)

I dont understand when people say,"no tonics, dolls, or staffs"
Why should I follow them when that is THEIR rule, that they made up. It's not a rule in the game of pvp. There is no reason for me not to use my tonic, doll, what ever people complain and bicker about, in pvp. I would like it better if the creators of POTCO made rules in pvp, and not people making up the rules for it.

I like them both
What I like about SvS is you can repair the ships :P

i like both i like to own people in pvp LOL and its fun to sink other pirates in svs!

I hate SvS! The only ships to fight are giant ships that show no mercy! PvP can be fun, but only if it's fair.

I love SVS, but I hate PVP.

I am really not interested in playing either so if you happen to ask me don't take it personally if I say no OK!
