I swear they altered the models slightly once before...

Eliza's... um generous endowments keep shrinking. Not that it doesn't help prevent future back problems, but you're right - did we really need this 'fix'? Like I said... she'll need a new wardrobe.

Seems that some critters have been relocated in this update. I hear Dreadtooth has been crated and shipped off to the pond in Perdida Jungle, as well as a Wasp Queen has taken up a nest there as well. I did see that Dreadtooth is indeed gone from Tortuga Graveyard and was replaced with Hardtack, a Bayou Alligator Boss.

"Moving enemies around again??" some may groan. Honestly that there is a good thing. Why on earth was Dreadtooth in a low level area like Tortuga Graveyard? I've seen so many new players get totally owned by it. I think it's good that Disney saw a fault there and is moving enemies to areas appropriate for their levels. Perdida Jungle is indeed a good place to put Dreadtooth. By the time you get there in the Pearl Quest, a pirate should be ready to fight her.

Though I think they updated again last night. I had patched up to the 7-21 update last night and logged in then for a bit to see the new models. Then this morning, my launcher downloaded again (took it about 5 minutes). I checked my PiratesOnline folder and one of the phase files did get updated. Not exactly sure what they changed but it may have been the models again.

The Dueces discussed what they noticed with the new models is that their shape of the fronts/backs of the pirates had changed, they were all real skinny and necks were out of wack; overall disproportionate. Now this morning, I checked the Create a Pirate screen and this doesn't seem to be the case any more, at least from what I'm seeing. I cycled through each body type and saw the bodies appeared to be more realistic than last night. Honestly to me, they don't look that bad. The extremely disproportionate He-Man action figure large male body type really didn't look that good to me personally. Now that particular body type looks pretty inviting to try out.

My first pirate has/had that body type. I was looking through the bodies and my son said "Pick the one that looks like Bob" (from the Incredibles). So, that's what I did.

Well my "action figure" body type, looked hourglass somewhat, as they should be. Now it looks like an hour glass with a box for the top portion, ribs do NOT stick out like that on most of the worlds population.

Now he looks like hes been on vacation eating pancakes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner while sitting on his butt watching Gilligans Island reruns.

Why are they messing with pirate models at all?

lol zep that's funny ,

hope this wont affect my pirates that much i made my pirates with the 2 coolest bodies out there
the skinny and the one with a little bit a muscle (not the hulk one)
and this is really disappointing we will have no more midgets!! I will miss the funny guys they really added more movie like
feelings to the game

Well, it is still on test :)

Perhaps they will update whatever else they need to once they finalize it (for now) in the game.
