Pirates Online Survey (Merged)

[Nelly Darkpaine]

Anyone else just get the link to the Pirates Online Survey emailed to em? I just got it, and completed it. Woot. Now, hopefully they listen!

I asked for MORE INVENTORY SPACE! Woot!!!!

=D

Would love to hear what you all think about the questions, and if everyone got it. (Im sure you all did!)

[James Bladefury]

I gave them 3/5, I wanted Kraken, Join Differ Groups, and Guild Hideout

[Dockwrecker The Privateer]

Not yet ,have I it.I'll be looking foreward to see this....Are Unlimited members getting it only?

[combatlizzy]

Got it but haven't really looked at it yet...Probably tomorrow...

[jason davy]

I actually thought it was a decent and fairly in-depth survey (and the later questions were specific to my early answers). I hope D is listening up!

I answered that I was currently NOT a paying member, and after that a lot of the questions dealt with trying to dig into the depths of my soul and pry out exactly why I have played "longer than 6 months" but don't pay (they asked questions like "Were you aware that Pirates Online offers a new subscriber deal so that the first month's cost is half-price ($4.99)?" and "How interested would you be if Pirates Online offered week-long subscriptions for a reduced price?").


This was probably my favorite question - looks like big D has been gathering ideas from POF!

[Dockwrecker The Privateer]

I love many on that list,I like the Guild Islands/Ships and Dungeons because they are such a refreshing ideas.Several others are top priority as well like New Storyline (chapter) and Ship Customization.

[Captain Sureshot]

Aye Nelly, I too received the POTCO Survey through OpinionsHereDotCom. Seemed like a fairly good general survey.

Overall I rated the game a 4. I feel the lack of new story content warrants a 3, but I still enjoy the game so much I had to give it a bonus point.

[Captain Del]

I just filled out the survey 2 minutes ago. I gave POTCO a 4, mainly because it was talking about the game itself, not its social aspects.

My favorite question was when they asked what features you wanna see in the future. That question really showed to me they ARE listening to us. I said I wanted New Storylines, Enemy Forts and Raids/Dungeons as my top 3. Call my influences based on WoW, but I would be really interested to see how they would play that out

[Mark bladeflint]

I got it too XD. I also gave it a 4 because I want more stuff XD.

[MacIronhawk]

When joining the game only about three months after did I get a survey. It wasn't too detailed, but I enjoyed doing it.

Now the one I just did is very detail. When getting to, "In the future, what types of game experiences would you like to see more of? Select all that apply." a huge list of things came up.

New Ship Types
Crafting, Blacksmithing, Creating Voodoo Items
Treasure Hunting
More Adventures on Ships
In-game Events, Contests, Meet the GMs
More Items and Trading
Customize your Ship
New Weapon Types (Muskets, etc)
Mini-games

Other(specify) Best option there was

The survey was... very interesting to say the least. It asked me to rate pirates online, say what I think could make it better, say what problems I encountered during the game. It asked me about whether players affected me or not, too, and whether they played a good role in keeping the game fun...

Just a bunch of things, really.

Has anyone else done this yet? It also asked me to pick the three most important things I'd like to see in the game. I said ship customization, the Kraken battle, and was other for specific. The third one I said that if I joined a group like Davy Jones or Jolly Roger I should be able to quit the group or stop being with them so I can try out other groups just so I can get a lot of variety.

Really good survey, and I hope they actually see the results.

P.S. It asked how I would rate pirates online, and I gave it a four. It asked me how to rate Disney... two.

[Angel Seafish]

I had to give it a 2. Why? No new content. I'm just glad they have heard enough complaints about that and made a survey. And a LONG one at that.

[Kat Five Knives]

I gave the game a 4 as well.
On the suggestions for new material, I suggested guild halls that are customizable by the GM and can ONLY be attended by guild members. This would be awesome for guild meetings and keep others from 'popping by' during the meeting.

[The Skirata Clan]

I think, they are afraid to lose more of us. I am glad that at least they are understanding that without us pirates (basic or not) they might be out of a job. They now know that We Are the game. I hope that they use all the input they get and do something productive with it. I wish this is a sign for improvement rather than the path that they were following. I am extremely happy to see hopes for a better POTCO game. I am glad that with this (so far) the game we all love might come back from its pending doom.

[combatlizzy]

Just finished the survey. I give Kudos to Disney for asking for our opinion. I think this will help them in directing the game to make us all happy pirates!

[Eliza Creststeel]

Did the survey last night and am encouraging all of our guild to do the same. I do like that many of questions focused on the fact that I'm an adult playing - not a kid.
