Release Notes - June 2nd, 2009

[Basil Dreadflint]

I agree with Sven that everyone needs to contact Disney about this one. I have already sent an online complaint, and am waiting for live chat support right now.

I suggest that everyone do the same. SWAMP them with complaints about this one. Even if you don't use linked accounts, your friends do! Think about it. Families that have a single unlimited account, but two, three, or even more players in the family, only one at a time will be able to play unlimited. The others will be stuck in basic. Also, since they already have their established pirate on the family unlimited account, they won't be able to access it.

So, if you don't use linked accounts, your friends might. How many husband/wife/son/daughter/siblings use this method to play together??

One last item about this, so that I don't turn it into a total rant, I don't play on Toon Town, or any other Disney game, but did they ever stop the ability to play linked accounts on any of those other games? If not, then their excuse here of doing this for "Security reasons" is just bogus carp!!! They are just trying to force families into paying for more accounts!!!!!

I'm writing my letter right now and for anyone who is writing them, please be civil. Yes, let Disney know how mad, frustrated, irritated, etc you are, but they aren't going to listen to an all caps marathon of yelling and uncivil unrest. You know what I mean, aye?

And Basil, I don't believe ToonTown or any other Disney game had the linked account ability. I can understand shutting off the Linked Accounts behavior on the Test environment, but not Open. For shame, Disney.

Do the whole pirate community a favor and go to http://apps.disneyblast.go.com/cgi-b...nline/form.tpl and fill out your info. Then make your complaint to them to reverse this "so called security update" that kill linked accounts.

Toontown does not have a linked account system, most players on there that need to be able to run 2 at a time purchase a 2nd account. I have played there for many years and I have a few friends that have 2 accounts on TT.

That's quite true. I've played TT for many years. It's 10 times the game POTCO is but it's had years to develop. The linked account feature was POTCO's best selling feature for me and my family. I had hoped that TT might adopt the feature so my whole family could play together without paying huge sums. Doubt many of us have lots of cash to throw around these days. After having linked accounts for nearly 2 years, calling this move just a security update seems like a slap in the face.
