TEST Release Notes - May 18 & 19

[Raikel]

What we NEED is a new story quest and raised notoriety cap.

The rest is all just appetizers.

I just hope you're not looking forward to it until August, because with all these dull upgrades and events, you best believe they're never working any little bit when the GM's are with us. Sorry to disappoint you, but I'm sure right after this new story, you'll realize it's too short, and the cap will be about 45 without any kinds of new weapons or such. You'll be wanting a refund, and you all know it.

Besides, it was like a whole year until they remade Black Pearl Boss, what if they feel the Kraken isn't good enough after about a few months? You'll just be shooting certain ships, killling certain enemies, and you'll be delivering objects you've never even seen. If you want a level 80 cap, then the storyline will have to be about a 12 month quest at the fastest. I know well that Pirates doesn't have the thoughts of spending their time and thinking out the new quest, so you'll probably be disappointed there. It may be a 2 month quest, but you've also have to look at how 'fun' the actual quests are.

If you love to attack enemies continuously over and over again, then good, but if you don't you'll just be wasting your time. Sorry, but these quests I'm sure will not be as long as the first chapter. I see that they may raise the cap, but for you who mastered all of your weapons, I would expect when they raise the cap your levels will be messed up and they'll lock the cap again until they find a solution. I may be wrong, they may have something big time in store for the new quests, but I am not making any kinds of bets.

You do know that the GMs are NOT the developers of the game, right? They're just staff members who keep us entertained. I guess you could say they're a rank above the people we call on the phone for help.

New weapons are coming. I forget what they're called, the dark art weapons or something like that. They should do much more damage than the highest level weapons we have now. You see, we won't be able to get the quests for them until we master our weapons. I can't wait to get that cutlass.

POTCO isn't going to be repetitive. Like toontown, they'll be adding in more activities, quests, and areas. The devs can't do anything we want them to in a short amount of time. If you don't have the patience to wait for new things and the spirit to know that the new updates are going to be good, then why play the game?

Sorta like you think I play the game now.... I guess it's good news that I don't. But if you're really want to stay on board that ship, so be it. Whether you can actually see that the game is just getting worse and worse over time.

On another Note... I heard about the Dark Arts weapons in October... What are they to be, something with benefits? I highly doubt it, like I ever needed Rank 5 Weapons to murder in PvP anyways... Unless these weapons allow you to grow extra experience when battling certain enemies, or actually give you new powers, then I see nothing more than an unneeded and quite possibly ugly weapon. And what kind of quest can you get for these, another 5 minute one where you battle new bosses?

And you would like to talk about repetitive? That's what they're quests are, the exact same thing.... Styles and enemies may change, and maybe even the damage, but you still attack anything it tells you to, and with no true gain, but leading to another quest where you have to keep killing another enemy.... For what reason, I am not sure, but I feel you can't see that, and I'm also guessing Pirates may not see it either.

Listen, raising the lvl caps does NOT only mean the notoriety, it means the Weapons cap too. i suggest you WAIT, and not spread things like "This game's stupid" or "I dont wanna wait for stupid weapons". BE PATIENT AND WAIT FOR THE DEVS TO MAKE THE NEW THINGS, SO THEY CAN MAKE IT AS GOOD AS POSSIBLE!!!!!!
