Release Notes - September 1, 2009

[Bartholomew Foulsteel]

Ships move WAAAAAY too fast. They are ridiculous speedboats zipping around out there!

I guess what I want to know is this--although the level cap was raised to 50 (except in Ben's case), the player cards show what our levels WOULD be if all of our rep that we would have gained fromn level 40, but our players are all strating out as level 40 with NO rep past 40.

So, which one they gonna go with?

Aye, it was very noticeable on Test. I may just dumb down my Windcatcher... A LOT. Thing is, I think I have points to spare anyway. Where am I going to put 5+ points as I level Sailing?? Need some new skills. Hate to just put them on skills to up my damage amounts.

I do think boats are a bit... ok, way faster than they should be. In my opinion this is the developers screaming, "Don't complain about how long it takes to get to islands!"

Or it could be just a little hint that pirates will be expanding a bit and faster boats will be needed. Just guessing, but that's probably what I'd do if I was a developer.

Added: Hey, they said they fixed some bugs on test, but never gave the release notes. I hope they know what they're doing by not giving us information about bug fixes.

Hey Bart , what's the fastest speed you have seen for a ship?
Cause I maxed wind catcher and still only move at 12 knots on my sloop of war.

I may get a move on one of them once the snow flies around, but even so, I'm just gonna enjoy the ride like the first time

Same here Max, I think i've gained even fewer reps on my level 40s.. lol.

You should submit bug reports etc to technical support if your having problems with the game. The Grog Blog is not designed for bug/problem reports.
On POTCOs main site click "Help" on the menu, then "Contact Us", then there is a "Report a Bug" option.
