Grog Blog Update: Rewards for All in April - April 15, 2009

[Raikel]

lol, first off, I would kill to even play pirates at the moment...


Second off, double rep was awesome back in my day, Backside of Padres (The original and Better). Good ol' grenade training... Even my level 28 got his Grenades from level 10 to level 21... If you guys complain about Double Rep, then you aren't Pirates. This be one of my favorite events of all time...


Curse, I'm afraid was too boring for my skin... So I became Undead!!!

[Kaionai]

I'm happy that this is happening yet im not...this is not a good sign in my opinion, it's just them trying to get more people to pay for a subcription so they can persuade people to pay, by them doing it could mean alot of things.


They are on a budget and not making any more money for the game to release more content.

They see that people are not active enough and trying to get there community up in paying terms so they meet a quota..

or they are just being nice since people are fileing for tax's and know that people some and few are getting refunds..

[Rackat]

Well my two fully mastered pirates, James Buffitt and Iam Rackat, will be "in their box" for this event so they won't get to enjoy it at all. I will however try to finish James Buffit Jr. and Iam Rackat Part Deux. The double rep should be enough for me to fully Master James Jr. and get very close on Iam Rackat Part Deux. Once they are fully Mastered, that will make pirates 5 and 6 for me that are fully Mastered. I sure would enjoy something to do besides start new pirates to Master.

HAHA, I just started #7 and 8. I'm running out of unlimited slots!
Yet I see no real need to cram all those reps into a single weekend.
Why rush to master yet another pirate only to find there isn't a darn thing
to do when your done. I've decided the better bet is to just walk around
and talk to random players. At best I'll make some new friends and at worst
I'll entertain myself trying.

I agree. I rushed to master my first pirate, and now I'm just taking it easy on my 2nd and 3rd. I'm playing it a lot more for the fun now, and the longer there's stuff to do, the longer I'll have fun.

I will however use the event to finish off Big John's grenades. Nades aren't fun anymore by level 22, so best to get them over with quickly. I am certainly thankful for an opportunity to do so.

Accounts are free: anyone can take advantage of the first. Either way, there is nothing to complain about: the same complaints here are the same complaints made everywhere. If someone gets a perk, I don't complain because I didn't get a perk.

If the bait is more attractive than it used to be, you can't (legitimately, of course) complain because you bit less attractive bait (the allusion used because you are already paying customers I suppose--non-paying customers have less reason to complain, though they could easily within reason tell why they aren't paying). Granted, I will be benefitting from the first event should I try to do anything, but I dunno.

I agree with Bart, but eh, I can somewhat see that. At this point I'm thankful we have an event that will at least benefit SOMEONE, instead of a completely useless event, i.e., Jolly Roger's Curse.

/me claps


Well this is great for those people who are basic or need rep because I and alot of other players cant get rep anymore and already pay for the game so its of 0 benefit to me and my fellow pirates like me!

[The Skirata Clan]

Totally agree there Hopefully this will get more money in then more updates- then more fun!

[Ghostcannon]

Yay!!! Double Reps!! coming soon!....This is good for those who wants to master a difficult weapon like Nades....Also good for Big D..because they know the game servers will be filled with new registered users...also good for the basic access people who will get a taste of being unlimited for a few days....the whole point of this is Big D trying to attract new people to the game and attract the regular basic users to become unlimited.... it works evenly for everyone.

[davy redflint]

aye if they add more content then they would keep ppl playin.....i m pay up for another year hopin for somthing new...i guest the the best big d can do is double rep and free week end for basic....which is good for ppl that need it. still waiting for somthing good to happen with this game....

[Nicholasfunstuff]

Awesome! I might level my pirate to the max! Yea and not good lol, well if I level my pirate max and my weapons I will be bored but the good side is that I think soon the kraken quest is coming on so I am ready for that! But more to the point I like to max my pirate then I can focus on test and make a new pirate, hay can anyone tell me how much does it take to finish the game? Ohhh, I can make a poll of that lol. But for me first time it took me about a year or more or less I can't remember lol.
