I haven't been on POTCO for a few days, but here is the latest update.
April 27, 2007 [pirates_1_0_6_0]
- Taking a ship out via the dockworker has been simplified.
- Added boss battle: Rescuing the Black Pearl.
- Splitting and doubling has been added to Blackjack.
- A Log-out button has been added to the options panel.
- When you log in, you will appear on the last island you visited. Major islands have jails.
- The ability to teleport to a friend has been added.
- There is now a new user interface in place for currently targeted enemy.
- Enemy aggro has been tuned so enemies don't gang up on people as often.
- New name tags reveal the difficulty of an Enemy relative to a player. Red: Hard to defeat. Yellow: Near equal to player. Green: Easy to defeat. Gray: Very easy to defeat.
- The Lookout system is now defaulted to Invite Crew.
- You should not be able to buy or equip a weapon before you've earned the right to have it.
Other items to watch out for:
- We will be removing the deploy button from the ships panel - you will have to use the dockworker to deploy a ship.
- Look for missing water after dying in a jungle, cave, or swamp.
- We are doing a quest database patch, so try logging in with an old avatar that has quests and make sure the quests still show up.
