The Future of POTCO Looks alot Brighter

[Cannonfury]

I think the future of POTCO is bleak... the game to me is boring, I only play cause of friends and I like ranking.. Had it not been a multi player game, I would have quit the day I registered >.>

For the record, having played since a year ago February (not since this February).

Since I track these quests, each and every step, and document them as I try to keep the wiki up to date I have come to one absolute conclusion:

The black pearl quest, has been tweaked making it EASIER and SHORTER than before. Fewer tasks resulting in FEWER notoriety points, actually making it fall SHORTER of what Maximvs had pointed out earlier, making the "Gap" even larger. I believe this is to SLOW down pirates from getting to level 40. Leveling of weapons is definately not any harder than its ever been.

They made it easier for new players to start and get going, and it doesnt get any harder than it was before... just easier!

Everything has been made easier EXCEPT for one thing... the number different enemy names spread about making most look around a bit more for them.
But everyone keeps track of where theyve seen things, and that is not really anything to slow someone down. In actually, I found that in them doing so, they eliminated the number of alternatives you could use to find these enemies, and put them all in the vacinity of the quest itself (again making it easier). After all, they have a beam of light that points right at it... Go search for this..... its right here! (pointing to it)

Dont know what that means for the future other than it would appear they may be about to finally expand the game... lets hope its fairly soon.

Added: Disney pushing POTCO to release too early, trying to meet or beat POTBS to the public has been the explanation accepted by the community for quite awhile now.

Well said Travis. I too believe that the game will get better. The game as already come along way from where it was, maybe not as fast as other games or as fast as some would like it, but it has advanced. I look forward to what lies ahead whatever it may be large or small.
