If you have a basic account, you can't level very far or access all the quests/weapons. If you're on unlimited, you can. In the game, basic user names are in gray, while the unlimited user names are in gold.

cant u somehow transfer ur paid subscription from ToonTown To POTCO?

I'm playing on test still as I've done 97% of the black pearl but am stuck on the treasure find on Isla Tormenta. Those dudes in the cave are lvl 34!!! I can only get a few hits in and im dead!! LOL Then i've gotta sail all the way back there.
My notoriety just turning 26 so I dont want to lose that by playing open. Think I need to lvl up a few waepons then go try again.

You won't lose your level on Test. That will remain the same. But I dread starting over on open.
I wish they hadn't made payment possibilities so limited. Now I have to wait for a credit card to pay for this thing.

I signed up for the $4.95 first month, but I'm not sure I'm going to keep the subscription. Anyone know what happens to your account if you cancel? Can you just go back to the free access version?

[Rose Daggermonger]

I've got a free account now, but might get a paid one to get the little extras.

[Rossi]

I play for free. At the point I'm at in the game, i don't need any other weapons. For the advance ships, I just join random crews of subscribed members and sink ships on their ships-works well since the captain still gets his money.

I am considering upgrading later on whne it's more vital. I was so ticked when I sailed to Cuba, took me 3 tries, and when I got their found out to get VooDoo I needed to upgrade

[gingersilver]

I have a basic account but I am planning to get as far as I can get and then beg my mom to get a paid account

[DrStinglock]

Hell yes, paid for and well enjoying it.. Same deal as what the other australians did, just selected a us state and it went through on my CC

Sif 40% less rep, and lvl caps and ad's...

[larkija]

I'm playin' free for now. I have a strong feeling about paying though... even though I don't want to pay for anything. :S
