IMO they are working on the cars game now, when that launches they will turn attention back here. If I am estimating correctly when they release the game in england with all the upgrades, we will get them too. I dont however understand what their aversion is to raising the note level. Thats a simple fix that would make many people very happy.

Changes are comming, just in time for christmas , thats my guess, not a fact.

Benjamin, I like your optimism. However, this is a multi-billion dollar company. They dont' have two people sitting in some back room working on pirates, they have teams of employees working every aspect of each of their online games. (although it would seem there are only three people and a little hampster running a wheel in the customer service dept.) Time to crack the whip on the POTCO division IMO.

Disney is a multibillion dollar company , that does not mean they are throwing that money at their online gamming division, I would be very curious to see exactly how many are really working on this game exclusivly, my guess all their division works on all their games. I dont think its as populated with staff as you would imagine it is

Benjamin,

I wish I could support your theory, but if there was any major content upgrades coming out in time for Christmas, then it would have to be on Test already. Although I'm not on test, I do know that anything that gets put there, information starts to leak out. Nothing has leaked from any of the test server pirates since they all disclaimed the October update!

Then again, maybe none of the pirates who have test accounts are using the test servers anymore. They were all so upset when the October update came out full of bugs that they had complained about and been ignored on, they may have all quit!

Aside from the limiting of ships (OCD - I want complete sets...and a racing sloop...LoL), I totally agree.

Like many others, if it weren't for my guild (what's left of it), I'd be done with Pirates.

I have been on test, nothing there any more than on live servers. At least with nothing to do, I go there and see how much rep I can get in one kill or something.

As for guilds, my last one emptied about a month after the mess in svs. Some guilds would be expected to gain members as the old 250 max ones crash down to 0, and few that stay look for new homes. These are not just small guilds, these are guilds that had to constantly eliminate people who were not around, to make room for more and max. This particular guild was under rank 10 in everything on the xd site at the time, and came in much later than the starting guilds.

Never once heard these people say they didn't like the game as they left. Many times heard of cheats, no new content ever, and ban issues over such stuff as giving out guild site.

I feel sorry for you lot :P Imo, they need to get some worthwhile and substantial stuff in this game. Look at Toontown for example, they've got all the stuff they can get in it and more. Why not POTCO?

And I don't think it's Cars Online that they are working on... Too small, it's only a tiny 3-D flash game. Maybe they are working on the Great British version of POTCO (I live in GB ) Well working on the server, because as far as I now UK and US share the same servers, as for upgrades we'll proberably get them at a similar time as GB, usually GB are first according to most Disney games.
