Raven Cove
 

What is this new mysterious place? Do you think it will be a new island in the very near future? What do you guys think about this area called "Raven Cove". :bookishfj7:

Ok I'll bite!

The details mate ye lack the details, like who, what, when, where, how, ye heard about this from.

An inquiring pirate wishes answers!

On Test, the EITC fleet is trying to sail to Raven Cove.

I think we will get a new island once the next major update comes.

Im thinking that the the weapon quests will be either hidden on padres or a quest to go to raven cove and find the weapons...

( Maybe we can even pull a sword out of a stone :laughks2: )

I think that the weapons won't be on Padres. I think they'll be on Raven Cove which will hopefully be a new island. And also, I think these lost weapons are the new lvl 25-30 weapons that Disney pronounced a few months back and that jolly will not find them but we, the pirates will. Idk, just my two cents :)

there is no possible way these weapons are on padres what would EL Padron would be on Padres as a spanish conquistador. Its either another island or and add on to cutthroat or the spanish pvp island it has to do with the spanish thats for sure.

In the Expedition Fleet Warning, it said the EITC were headed to an isle known as Raven Cove. When you lose the battle, it says the EITC have gone (Rumor... OUTSIDE THE CARIBBEAN TO RAVEN COVE). From what was in the announcement of the fleet, I assume that Raven Cove will be a location in the near future. Since we are playing Pirates of the CARIBBEAN I am not sure that we will be able to travel to Raven's cove since it is outside of the caribbean.

( At first I thought this thread said Raven CO. I was like " What does this have to do with MAG ", then I saw it was COVE XD. )


Hmm this COULD actually be a new island XD. That would be fun raidng the island for the wepons.

I think Raven Cove WILL be a soon-to-be new island. Hopefully, it will involve Chapter 2 of our story quests...

....And new enemies.

I hope that it is something outside the Caribbean allowing for a new set of Islands.

If you notice, the message DOES NOT SAY that Raven Cove is an island.

Couldn't Raven Cove be a location or dock on Padres? Why would Jolly be invading PDF if they weren't there?

Alot of "Food for Thought", aye, mates?
Makes this pirate think that Big D has been hard at work plotting a course for the POTCO story to continue...

I wish I had written it down but as the new Padres addition to the Casa de Muertos quest played out, a specific Island was mentioned. Anyone remember what it was? Or did I dream it? And if I'm dreaming about POTCO, help me...

The weapons cant be on Padres otherwise the Expedition fleet would be sailing TOWARD the island, and it's always sailing away. The map telling the whereabouts of Raven Cove is, and that is what the EITC have.

Then perhaps this Raven Cove is indeed some new location on the horizon... does the red dot path go off the edge of the known map?

The red dot path goes from one random island, to the edge of the map. The EITC ships are going off of the map when they win.

Then perhaps this means we may see an increase in ocean area in the future.

It'd only make sense to me, although the developers can do whatever they want. I for one would like to see a reall spooky looking island they go to, or an EITC fort, similar to Kingshead, only for the EITC.

Ok, I'm getting ahead of myself, but with the new updates I feel less disappointed in Disney, simply because it seems to me that they can actually focus on the new content, now that islands are all redone, caves are redone, there are new fleets on test, ships, etc...

but we still need forests and cuba to be redone, which is inevitable. i'd also prefer some wild islands and kingshead to be redone, and an addition of many newer islands

I don't believe we need Cuba redone, because its not a island you will go to much to just hang out (but it would be nice for Disney to re-do it after some new major content). I think Disney should just focus on the major stuff first just to satisfy us. Cuba should be redone after.

So, now I'm hearing rumors that at some point we will learn of the island where Raven Cove is and it may be part of an expansion to the game world.

One can only hope.

We don't need to revise the wild islands. They need to be open. not twisted and crowded like they made the main islands.

To my knowledge...

All of these fleets seem to be going up near rums, drift, perdida, and cajerous ( how ever you spell it )

Maybe this is where raven cove is???

The fleets go to random places, but those listed have been starting locations (at least when I saw). I don't think we'll know where the island is (or even if it will be reachable) until the future.

I'm guessing Raven Cove is either a new island (sure hope so!), or somewhere on PDF. Heck, maybe it's on Kingshead.

?

I don't think I mentoined wanting them to redo any other islands, especially the wild islands. I would even like to see them make more wild islands, so that we can explore heavy popullated areas and "forests" in the game.

But that's just me, and I really hope this raven cove ends up being an actual island.

some wild islands like Tormenta's exterior, Perdida's exterior, Cangrejos, etc. I feel should be redesigned. Mainly forests and Cuba. Angel, when i meant redesigning it, I didnt mean redoing it, I meant a complete change of the island from a beach and a small river ( that was supposed to be on Isla Pelegosto ), to a larger colony of the Spanish and by that I mean new content, as in LARGER buildings, more people, many quests, and a new form of city maneuvering and functioning, and obviously a larger part in the Story of the game, as in keeping it as a new Main island ( where we could probably see invasions and such ), basically because Pantano river should not be there.

raven cove may indeed be an island, in the isla de muertos quest they say the weapons are stockpiled in raven cove.

The quest conversation says Raven Cove is an island, so that mystery is cleared up. We also know that the sacred weapons are hidden on the island, meaning the movement of the treasure fleets is a cover story for the EITC to be having digging operations on Raven Cove while they hunt for the weapons. Roger knows this now, but so do the pirates, so, as the saying goes, the game is afoot. Who gets to the weapons first? Moreover, who will locate Raven Cove first: Roger or the pirates? If the pirates can, for the first time since the whole arc started, the pirates will have an advantage on Roger - the location of the sacred weapons and a chance to really get ahead if we can get the weapons ahead of the EITC and Roger.

We'll find out about all that in about two weeks!

:xxxk0: Thats when im gone for vacation... :mybadki6:

I'm guessing that Raven Cove will be a treasure map - like the boss battle for the first story chapter. Accessed by completing a quest.

A members only place, instance... disney has been creating more of these things in pixie hollow. I would not be suprised if the follow the same model in the caribbean.

That would be a state of perfection for a basic chap like me. :p

There are several ways they could restrict the new area if they wanted to. The fact that it (Raven's Cove) seems to be outside the Caribbean is curious indeed. They could use Unlimited or even a level restriction to enter the new area or maybe you have to be fully mastered. None of these would be easily accepted. Unlimited would make the most sense "if" they are planning on restricting it at all.

Many MMORPG's have areas that are resticted by Level and you can't enter them until you have reached a certain level and done the "Gain Access" quest which you are not given until you reach the appropriate level. It could be something as completing quests to get a new teleport stone to take you to the new area. The only real problem would be blocking other pirates from TP'n to those that had gained access.

I rather think whatever they are doing will be open to all.

Hopefully it's a new island, and I also hope its alot like the old islands

im real confused with this whole thing. But my guess is that it will be a future island!(: i hope anyways... we need a new one.

I can't help but smile when I read this thread. Not that its the fault of anyone here, but I'm beginning to question Disney's decisions.

I'll explain what I mean. Be advised that this is a bit off topic at first so if the mods don't find it right for me to post it here I'll make a new thread. While people complain about lack of content, we have created a game for ourselves, sort of a "game outside the game." Seeing everyone debate and list each possible explanation for these events makes me think, "Maybe this is what Disney wants. Maybe they actually want us to guess what will come next or how it will be integrated." Some of the greatest ideas in this world are the ones that can have many meanings, and many more answers. Of course this doesn't make up for no big updates, but it does add to the thrill of the experience so that once the updates do come, they will seem bigger and grander.

For example, when this "Where are the weapons?" storyline comes to the close (hopefully in some huge groundbreaking update) than all of these events involving the invasions, and the fleets, and the betrayal storyline will give players the feeling that they truly did have a hand in solving the mystery, and that all this tedious work paid out in the end. Just my two cents.

Back on topic, the biggest guess would be new weapons and/or a new island. Hopefully the island serves a meaning and isn't just another wild island. I'm basically asking for another main quest island (Tortuga, Port Royal) and not another "space filler" (Cangrejos, Rumrunners). Not to say the wild islands serve no purpose, but with the exception of Tormenta, if you've seen one you've seen them all.

It's definitely going to be an island! Really there is no doubt about it!

The Rott quest definately uses the word Island in describing Raven Cove.

Since the EITC is sending expeditions, it can likely be concluded that the island does NOT currently have an established settlement - at least not one that Beckett has his hand in.

So, Raven Cove could be a deserted wild island. It could be an island with ruins maybe? Be nice to add natives (alive or even undead ones) to our enemies list.

If East India is trying to get there and the pirates could get there first -

WOULDN'T THAT MEAN THE POSSIBILITY OF EITC INVASIONS AGAINST THE ISLAND? A nice reversal.

So, how about this... There are natives on Raven's Cove, or maybe the remnants of a colony. There could be a handful of NPC natives for the pirates to interact with as they quest for the new weapons. EITC or even NAVY invasions occur from time to time, along with Jolly's as the pirates race against time. Just a suggestion - but I would play that.

I have some information which i found out from Member Services about Raven Cove:
Raven's Cove will soon be added into the dangerous waters very soon. Prepare for an island that is like no island currently in the game. Rumors are, this island has unique enemies with powerful skill, so prepare ye self lad. Ye do not want to be caught in the midst of their attack! Here is another email i asked to Member Services about Raven Cove:
We have received reports of other Pirates seeking Raven Cove also. It has been said before that is does lie beyond uncharted waters. Yet, very few Pirates have been there. You can count on any news regarding it will be shared with all residents of the Caribbean. For the latest game developments, be sure to check the Current News as it is updated frequently.

What does this mean well it means we will very soon be able to sail past The Uncharted Waters in the game.

Nice James. I think it will only extend to Raven Cove if that is the case though. Unless more wild islands are coming with it in the future, nothing is certain.

The question is will it come with this update (the new weapons) or is it the next one? Since it said Very Soon..

I think its the new island thats coming.. I still wanna know when

ravens cove
 

i hope it's a good sized island and no dinky little island ike rumrunners. though they have good rum there

It looks like The Island from LOST. Smoke Monster included!

"You cannot dock on this island, the fog is too dense to see"

Hmmm ...

Aye, and now it's on the live game. The question is, When can we land on it on the test server? Hopefully this week? :) :bookishfj7::piratewheelgo2:

Aye, hopefully they can put it on test this week, or at the latest early next week. I want to have my feet on Raven's Cove beach as soon as possible.

Yeah, same here mate. If I were on The Pirates Online Team who decides what comes to the test game next, I would release Raven's Cove Island this week to the test game especially "if" and the word here is IF they want to release the new island on Live before or on Halloween 2010. I'm writing a fan-fiction story about Raven's Cove and I need to be able to see the new island for myself on the test game as soon as possible so I can finish up the book/novel. :) :bookishfj7::piratewheelgo2:
