The reason would be to TEST the bugs. This is the test server so I don't understand why everyone is flipping out about losing everything... Nothing is guaranteed on test.

I do too. I do not understand the complaints about test. It is called TEST for a reason.

mine keeps saying internet connection to the servers has been cut off or something like that then it says server is unavailable... :'(

:/

It's still up; maybe they're about ready to make the switch to Open. After hours ( days ) of Test being " closed for maintenance" it might finally be time...

I have a test account but it is only lvl one so I don't use it much (just to check out the new system when it was realeased) so can anyone tell me if the bugs are still there. I know from James that mac users still can't get in, sorry to here that, but "I'm Pride of Pearl, and I'm a PC"

Jamesvsthekraken · #7 03-30-2010, 04:38 PM

and test is down once again for maintenance i hope they fix this soon :/

"The site is closed for maintance".
I reported a few NEWER bugs, from after the big fix that took 3 or 4 days. I think they might be fixing some of those... and hopefully I might ablet o log in to test again after days of waiting. I'm starting to lose my patience... but hopefully most testers will be able to get on soon.

The last time they were trying to fix bugs, they accidently brought new ones in, so who knows? I say that we are lucky... since we get to report these bugs... and the more of us report it, the more chance of getting a fix, the less chance of having these horrible bugs on live.like Jamesvsthekraken, I couldn't log in to test cuz it kept saying it lost connection to the servers. I inspected it, and it was downloading the islands, as i could see in the background, the top, right corner. That means I did not lose connection, so it was, after all, a bug.

We never know it could come for Easter... So really, you never know... only disney does

Yes James, only Disney knows. However, an update this big needs to be thoroughly tested before it gets released. A few days is not thorough. Especially since mac users still can't log on (last I heard). It may come out soon, but don't get your hopes up. Personally, I think someone needs to get El Patron's sword that turns you into a ghost so that aspect can be tested before it is released. You never know what can cause something to go crazy. But, once again, who knows.

Yes, the El Patron's sword definitely needs some testing. But who knows? It's the rarest weapon out there.... a tester might not get it for weeks, if not months. There is probably a bug on the sword, but no one knows when we will discover that one. If we had to wait for a tester to find El Patron's sword, then disney would have to make it less rare, which I don't see happening, or else we would simply get the update on live maybe even next year. Already, the update is delayed for live (3 or 4 days of no testing when there should be basically a lot of testing, and disney introduced new bugs during that? Seems like it wil be released later then it should be), so I don't think Disney have time for us to discover the rarest weapon in the game. If someone finds it before the open, then yes, Disney will probably delay it a little cuz of the sword, but I simply don't see that happening right now.

Um, I HIGHLY doubt that sword is even in the game right now. They didn't say you could "actually" find it from some random ship or enemy. I bet that sword will not be in the game just like another sword. I mean, only one pirate would be getting the sword, so I doubt NO pirate is going to get it. Because it doesn't say, "El Patron's SWORDS". It says "El Patron's SWORD. Unless the game is just going to have 100000000 El Patron Swords, then no pirate is going to get it I'm sure. There is only ONE kind of that sword, and I think if anyone is going to get it, it's going to be Beckett, Jolly Roger, or Captain Walter. And besides, if it would turn you into a ghost, then you wouldn't get hurt. And that just wouldn't be right in the game..... unless Disney makes it so you would still get hurt, but that wouldn't make sense at all now would it? That's just how I see it.

MacIronhawk · #15 03-30-2010, 08:18 PM

I think it's really important, as Beorn said, that El Patron's sword is tested.

I think they should give the sword to some of the higher level players to test just to make sure it works. We don't want this going live and then having a whole lot of problems.

These are all part of the legendary El Patron's Lost Weapons! Getting them is simple. Just pillage and plunder like you've always done, and they'll drop from some of your enemies who found the fabulous weapons first. Here are some things you need to know about the new inventory...

And while you're looking - keep a wary eye for the legendary, Lost Sword of El Patron. This powerful blade once belonged to the famous conquistador, El Patron himself. According to legend, the blade was cursed with El Patron's last breath and his soul now haunts the blade. Anyone wielding this sword will have tremendous power, but will also be changed into the form of a ghost! Hurry and recover these weapons before they fall into the hands of Jolly Roger.

I'm pretty sure the sword is on test, just VERY rare.
