Are you kidding me? lol be honest, POTCO is not even high tech, and could probably run on a Gamecube. Not only that, but the game is not laggy because it has a load of features. You see, POTCO lags because of an incompetent technical team. They laid of a load of employees all around Disney as well. You see, this game is only getting worse, and lets be honest, the only real Pirates sinking ships are the people who programmed the game. POTCO needs a good RNR, events like the Feats of Strength are decent, but are overall ruined by lag and the wonkyness of overall gameplay.

They need more instances like the Black Pearl Boss. Areas where you can solo against groups of enemies or go with friends to enjoy something different. POTCO has already sunk at its current level. It is time they added higher specs and started running a stronger gaming engine.

I like your analogy but all games lag, even those made by better developers. The reason for lag is that the server your playing on starts to fill up and starts to not be able to handle the amount of players on it. Also Gamecube ( or any past generation gaming system ) can not handle it. Why? Because the game requires a certain amount of space and that amount is like 20 times more than a Game cubes memory card. Also making a decent game is not easy and takes months to years of work. Also, making a new game engine takes up most of the development phase in making a game.
