Overall I felt as if Disney managed to "tread water" in 2009, What was addaed was nice, but has added little to the game itself.
The islands are fantastic, although I wish they could leave one server like it used to be for nostalgia purposes, I kind of miss the charge up the hill to the fort on Port Royal.
Disney needs to manage the GM events better, The Constance Sorrows reunion thingy was horrible, So much local chat going on that I had no clue as to what was going on. Perhaps they could deactivate local chat while it is going on.
The Thrall Captains are great, Tormenta is once again the feared Island it should be, it gives the lvl 40 plus characters somewhere to go to face at least a challenge once again. I wonder where the Kraken are? we have heard of them and seen rumors for awhile, but sea battles will remain rather monotonous until they bring in terror from the deep.
I enjoyed the invasions on Port Royal, it made sense to protect the governors mansion. On Tortuga? Protect a tavern and Jack Sparrow? hmm Ok, I can sort of go with it. Padres? What is Jolly after, lava? I haven't been able to participate in the Padres event yet so I'll withhold judgement for now. While on the topic though, there are many fine pirates such as myself on late nights almost exclusively, we feel cheated, Surely Jolly might make a night run wouldn't you think?
Overall, an OK job in 2009, I am glad they raised the notoriety lvl to 50, but without a new story quest, it still remains the same...
