Heck, aren't there like 10 people working on the POTCO game alone? I think New PR, PDF, And Tortuga are a pretty good addition for that amount of time. Heres my 2 cents on this. They tide us over with some storyline (Probably making it up as they go along) with the EITC as there working on content at the same time and when they finish the content they will mess with the story a little bit and sqeeze the content into the story. If they add new clothing jewlery etc. I see them saying "Due to the latest attack on the EITC we pirates have been awarded with new lootings" Or something along that line.
To sum it up, im very glad that the POTCO makes these newsletters every once and awhile it really gives older players something to look forward to, If you can call me an older player. (I joined February of 2008).

I never said any thing negative about them sending out a news letter... I am just dissapointed with the content in it. More lame story lines that dont really affect the game that much. It is not that hard to put some side quests in the game, that is what people are wanting, most of us who have been playing since the game came out have nothing left to do. I am also not that psyched with the " Game Masters" in the game, I find alot of what theyre doing as just a way to waste time, and try to keep people interested in the game while they drag their feet developing things. They keep mentioning all this RPG talk when the GM's are going to be online, and half the time all they do is babble, they don't really seem all that into playing a role. They also are kind of coming up with all these bizzare RPG based story lines where they want you to come up with your own things to do, that benefit your character none at all. If I wanted to make up my own tasks and quests, I would be in my grandmas basement with my level 25 Wizard uncle sitting around an old card table casting spells with guys wearing alf tshirts, and drinking from cups with wookies on them. They tossed together all the new island updates in about a month because so many people (me being one of them) dropped their unlimited access. The new updates are pretty meaningless to me as far as game play goes, I run the game on a good system and have the settings set to what I can handle; all this lag they are fixing has never been an issue for me. They have cut down the character detail level to where it looks like Rune Scape now. I can tell the difference lol... I dont care what "big brother" is telling people, I know what I can see for myself. They are making tons of money off POTCO and not putting more effort into the game, just absorbing all the profit they can. The game ran for close to a year with no real updates to it untill now, all they had to spend money on was keeping the servers up, and paying their tech line people (who I would say do tech support for all of the Disney games any how). I am dissapointed because I want to play the game again, there is just nothing there to do now.
