There is also a new cannon GUI



I like it alot better only bug is when you are in cannon mode and you look at your menu (TAB button) and you close the menu the new ESC button is on top of the gold, tonic and weapon.

I think where it shows the number of rounds loaded, it should also reflect the selected type of cannon shot, instead of one static image of cannonballs, its a little confusing.

I agree lizzy.

I even think the compass changes make sense... until you launch your ship. hehe

Yea it would have been nice to change the background image to the shot you were using.

Just to clarify... Day of the dead and Halloween are 2 different things. In Mexico kids dress up and ask for candy in Halloween. In November 1st and 2nd which are the days that Dia de Muertos is celebrated people in some places go to the graveyards and pay respects to their dead ones. The 1st is for the children and the second is for everyone else. The skull candy and Pan de Muerto (bread of the dead) is made for these days. In Mexico we celebrate both Halloween and Dia de Muertos. I saw a post in The Helm that said that Halloween is called Dia de Muertos. It's not. I just wanted to clarify that.

If they dont change what they have on test, gold and notoriety points.

No new clothing or weapons quests as of yet.



I see from those screenshots he says "In a week or a few days".
Hopefully they put some fixes on quickly so us testers can agree with that.. lol

lol yeah, I made sure to get that part in. They could possibly just release the new caves, cap, etc. The quest says the 4th.. so it could come a little bit after the others.

I knew it! They never wait for testers to fully test things out. So lets expect invisibility glitches, speed glitches plus all sorts of glitches and tons of bugs, not to mention the fact that the test server is not working for Mac users. I can't wait like many but I'd rather see a really good update that takes its time to be fully tested than a good update that was tasted rather than tested. It seems that test is more like a preview.

Well... I will say that the popup INDEED says the quest is available Sept 4th. Who knows.. but Im sure the new content is planned to be live before then.
