mm1984 is scurvy dog
First off, I am not a tester, nor is it a "privilege" that I ever want to have. Testers, thank you for what you do for the game. With that out of the way, I agree Poison Elf. I'm not one to complain, unless it is warranted. This update seemed way too rushed, IMHO. While there are features that I like, mainly the point reallocation, degrading the weapons that were already hard enough to level, making them now virtually useless (if they could even be called useful in the first place), is not a way to make me want to keep paying to be a pirate errand boy for a bunch of lazy NPCs and button mash just so I can level up weapons to a point where I have nothing useful left to do with them, except for protecting fellow pirates.
Also this whole thing about fixing "bugs" that actually helped us level and didn't hurt anyone else (like the KH fence and to an extent the flagship glitch for grenades), yet not fixing the host of SVS problems that they said they would, does not help POTCO development's waning credibility in my opinion.
I'm sorry but if this trend of updates degrading the gameplay continues, I have better things to spend my $10 per month on. It's becoming an interactive chat room, and frankly mates, I have better things to do with my free time. It's not that I won't miss the friends I've made either.
Ok, my rant is done. This has been an editorial by the manager and sole employee of this station. Thank you for your attention. Now back your regularly scheduled program.
