According to Aliese/Piper, There's a new sub-folder that Disney puts the screenies in. Check her OP to find out more.

Oh, thank you. I haven't really read everything here yet.. lol

edit: Yes, I was right. I found some spots.. but not what you mentioned. Two in Murky Hollow, one in Royal Caverns

Only thing i can say is the COMPASS SUCKS. I want it to move with the direction my screen happens to be facing like before. Anyone remember they tried this before on the ship where it stayed the same direction your ship happen to be going? That was bad enough but not to have it fixed in one direction and you have to tell your brain which direction you are going.

WHY IS THERE NO NEW WEAPONS!!!!!

I agree with wmah. I like the way it was before, made it less confusing, and was just simple.

Anyone has a shot of the new weapons? Did they added more skills to go along with the new rep?

For some reason, Mac users can't get onto game. I am on a Mac too and have sent many bug reports, and have asked friends who can get on game to send bug reports regarding this as well. Hopefully it will get fixed quickly.

I don't think the new weapons were added yet.. that may follow with the new quests. Plus, it would be mentioned in the updates if it were added.

Never mind I misread. I got worked up with all the good things they added.

Hating the compass too.

But I LOVE the new speedometer for the ships.

I have always hated the fact that the slightest little adjustment to your ship's direction scrubbed off all your momentum. But not any more. That alone is worth this month's 10 bucks.

The caves are AMAZING. Murky Hollow looks like Mordor. Dark, moody and damp. I liked what I saw of Tormenta too, but I stepped on a Brinescum's toe about 20 feet into the cave and he pasted me.

This one might just have been worth the wait... Going to wait and see.

Argh, this is anticipating, can't wait. The updates look really well done

MacIronhawk · #57 08-21-2009, 04:18 AM

I am speechless. I want to jump up and down and scream my ear drums out... but for some reason, I can't.

There is a pirate lord out there giving us what we want... thank you! Now all we need is the second story quest and the Kraken to make this all worth wile! Thank you Disney! You took a while, but you finally came through, and before summer ended!(for me anyways)

**Sven Niscadae** · #58 08-21-2009, 04:32 AM

All in all, love this update. Every single part of it including the compass. I may be the only one there but D will change it again for the sixth time I'm sure. Shouldn't really be a big deal. People will get used to it. Right now it makes sense with the caves. The compass stays stationary (with North at the top) so it's perfectly aligned with the F8 maps. A lot easier to follow the map if the compass isn't spinning around, losing your bearings. I'm not having any issues with it at the moment.

They've also seemed to have gotten rid of the 100 rep limit per weapon as well. I was using dagger exclusively on General Bloodless and received 168 rep after 45% crew bonus. Not really sure if there's no limit now or if it's just a higher limit.

Put me into that same boat.
Have not been able to get on Test at all.

I think the compass is just asking too much. All the stuff that is added and the compass is the issue. I for now can't complain. I just can't wait until it hits open. And knowing Disney it will probably be next week. They do have a record of not taking the necessary test time with updates.
