How come they got rid of fishing? :'( :( :/

Fishing is not mentioned in the release notes. Only potions and ship rebuilding. I don't think the fishing spots were actually supposed to be there yet. Maybe they want to test two games at a time and focus on those. Only time will tell.

The Fishing Rod's/Net's were on Test last night. I think they had to remove them to work on them. :/

I'm an older player, and I enjoy puzzle games. If I want to play a puzzle game, there is no reason for me to log on to POTCO to do that, as there is already vastly superior puzzle games available for free elsewhere.

Which is the crux of the disappointment for those of us who aren't too impressed by mini-game additions to Pirates Online.

How many mini-games are already out there? 10,000? 50,000? 100,000? Plus all the more immersive games that also offer mini-games. There are thousands upon thousands of puzzle games. Hundreds of pirate themed games. The thing POTCO has going for it is the unique nature of the intellectual property. I feel that the producers should focus on maximizing that (think STORY; think more interacting with POTC CHARACTERS) and stop trying to mimic what has already been done by others.

If being like Puzzle Pirates makes POTCO 10 times better, then that's really just a great advertisement for Puzzle Pirates.

WELL THAT'S JUST GREAT. Now I have to go pay tons o cash to redistribute me cannon points. After they took out the ability to see peeps in SVS ( and stun them, which was so wickedly fun) and on Flag ships, I dropped grape from my pirates.

-_-

I'd suggest trying it on just one of your pirates, Kat, and then see how much damage it distributes, then go to the rest of them. Or you could make another brand new pirate....:)

Not sure where to post this, but unlocked invisibility for those wondering what it looks like :)

*you are invisible to others, but you see yourself as the below screen shot.

And grapeshot does minimal damage, but slows repairs.. so it's not that good.

Juliana Maria 05-08-2010 12:16 AM

Does it show your name Sven? Or is your pirate the only thing that is invisible?

Sven Osymthe 05-08-2010 12:20 AM

No name, its as if i'm not even there.

Juliana Maria 05-08-2010 12:21 AM

That's pretty neat... Gonna make hide and seek all the more interesting xD

bartholomew bladeroberts 05-08-2010 12:34 AM

Invisibility owns. Imagine using the 5 minute one in PvP. That would be interesting lol.

You can't open your sea chest during PVP.

Sven Osymthe 05-08-2010 08:46 PM

If you use it just before entering the PvP, it should stay. I think someone should test that.


edit:

I can finally transform, although, you pull a weapon out, you become normal again.

I Agree. Sounds like petal pick up.

Ropeburn 05-11-2010 05:11 AM
