The game does need to be thoroughly looked into by Disney...for a few reasons...
1) needs a graphics overhaul...desperately...
2) the servers need to be updated with better machines to handle the traffic more efficiently to lessen the lag/latency...
3) new content
Getting clothes, swords & stuff is fine and all...but the game needs to be as we all remember it from the first time we played it...heck I remember just going up to the fort on PR and feeling the adrenaline rush from being chased by the EITC guys...every place we went was a NEW ADVENTURE...
Pirates took their time to explore and actually do all the quests, leveling up while making new friends along the way...nowadays we have players jumping around trying to fast track their levels without going through what we did...
Even for us, things aren't as exciting as back then...sure we got some new stuff and a new island to explore...but how long did the excitement really last?
When you look at other MMO's, they have a huge world in which to explore...and when they do get updates, they get major updates full of quests and exploration to last them 6 months to another year or so...
Updating the islands was ok, even though I kinda miss the look of certain islands, but what Big D should've done was overhaul them all at once while tossing at us the fishing, Raven's Cove, etc...not in little increments because that's where the problem lies...we finish the new stuff rather quickly and then what's left?
Yes this is a fun game...it's also a nice social game upon which many true friendships are made...but it does need more, plenty more to substain it...not little its & bits here and there...it needs a grandiose push forward...
How hard would it be, let's just say, to add an entire new area with a dozen or so new islands to explore and quest on?
It could be like in World's End, where one would have to sail out past an island and hold course for 5-10 minutes or so before they found themselves in artic waters...then traverse a chasm through a huge ice wall and come out to discover all these new places...how cool would that be?
I will keep playing this game because I do believe in it's future...if enough people want it, we should get it because the last thing a developer wants to do is ruin relations with the ones that support their product...
And I hope they read this as much as we read all of their stuff...they need to read these posts/threads of ours because it's the best insight to what's good and what isn't...
