Is complete exaggeration.

I would take the learning curve over the lack of access.

And how is that so? The more updates the game gets, the more the basic player has to pay to use more stuff.

POTBS wins. we need to be more like them.

POTBS is a true pirate MMO. I've been playing it for a long while now and it's well worth the time and effort.

Oh, and another pro:
In POTBS, you can use a SOTL. In POTCO, it doesn't even exist in the Caribbean except as NPC.

Not at all true. Whenever Disney adds something to the game, they always will add something for basics. When the new clothes come out, there will be a few items that Basics can buy, such as sack shorts. Yes, its not as much as unlimited, but Disney needs to get money or we can't have the game.

Other examples. Basics couldn't always use the voodoo doll, or the light galleon. Those have been unlocked for them. When the Inventory was expanded, basics were able to use sabers and blunderbusses. Whenever Disney updates the game, basics get a little more.

Disney =/= the company who developed the game. At least learn that Disney didn't make the game. Disney just published it.

"Few" as in a select amount of things which say "Hey, i'm a free player! Notice how bad my clothes look!"

The developer needs the money, not Disney. The developer cares more about what's going into its pocket than what's being added to the game.

I can't use my Frigate. And I was Unlimited until I went Basic. I used to be able to use my Frigate as Basic until the system got changed once again to limit my play time.

And many more remain locked with no key able to be seen in sight.

And Unlimited was able to use about everything else that got released. 2% is not 100%.

Whenever the DEVELOPER updates the game, the Basics get less.
