The Island

[Dark_Pixie]

We all know the 'PvP glitch', right? And the empty island you get to if you do it wrong. I'm very curious about the origins of this island, so I did some digging on the Pirates Wiki and...

Has anyone had that happen to them? I started playing in early 2010, so I missed the old islands. It would be very cool to go to one of them! My theory about the island, as most of you probably think, is that Disney are using it as a place to develop a new island. Or that they might open it as a new PvP cave. Anyone else got some theories?

lol theres a pvp glitch? hmm


mind pming it to me? :3




I would say they grabbed the entire ' old islands ' and threw them into the middle of nowhere.
thats what they do on toontown! haha...

Well, I've never been to the Old Islands when I tried to do the PvP Glitch. It'd be cool if someone could grab some screens.

The few times I've ATTEMPTED to PvP Glitch (I've never actually succeeded, and I haven't tried in months), I've ended up with an Endless Black Loading Screen (when you tried to exit the match too late) or I've ended up on an island that is similar in layout to Driftwood Isle (when I go in too early). I've never actually ended up on one of the old islands, but I've heard rumors of this happening. I too am curious to see screens. I'd imagine that they would have no people and no interactive items (search crates, doors... maybe even no buildings).

A comment about it on the Pirates Wiki:

One time I was there for 5 hours and I came back with no weapons on the OLD tortuga. It was creepy.

Could be a lie. Anyone willing to camp out on Empty Driftwood? Of course, there's the risk of crashing...

Another comment from that person said that they never got their weapons back. Guess somebody would have to make a noob account just to test it.

A quote from an email from Disney that someone put onto the Internet about Pillagers Pass, as it's known...

Pillagers Pass is a secret island that not many a pirate has had the luck of stumbling upon. Even Captain Jack Sparrow has heard only rumors of this island from some of the avid Pirate Versus Pirate fighters.

The rumors mostly be old wives' tales but the one that seems to hold true is that Pillagers Pass is one of the islands which Pirates of old used to store treasure, weapon loot, and cargo while passing through the Caribbean. However due to the threat of Jolly Roger and El Patron fighting to take over the Caribbean, Tia Dalma placed a voodoo enchantment on the island to hide it from plain sight. This is why only the savviest of pirates are able to locate this isle.

Pirate's also say with the voodoo enchantment placed on the island the treasure was hidden from plain sight as well; until the enchantment is lifted by Tia Dalma, Pirates will not be able to regain their riches. If the spell is lifted count yourself lucky mate, for you would be the first to know where it is so ye will be a richest Pirate in the Caribbean!

Sounds like Disney are trying to cover themselves up...

Couldn't find anything else on the subject. I guess the mystery of the island won't be solved for a while...

Thare are old videos on YouTube but ai can't find the old islands in the phase files

I remember in 08 the old island were there. When you go through the cave you would end up on on the base of Tortuga or PR. Now you end up on this random island. I have done pvp glitch thousands of times, when it was fun. Now its not fun like it was in 08. There use to be a glitch called Skel glitch were you could be a skeleton on real islands. Anyways, you can't go on to them.

This is correct Davy.

[Mr. Awesome]

I have been to the that island, and I thought it was interesting, but ending up on one of the old islands would have been much more awesome...

[Dark_Pixie]

Aw, it sucks that there won't be anything if we do find it. I wanted to see the islands. YouTube isn't the same.

[shaodwfan00]

I always to the PVP glitch wrong XD but I've never been to one of the old islands.

[Dark_Pixie]

Sound's like there's not much to see anyway. Never mind...

[Captain Jorden]

I miss it. I'm back in forums.

[Jim seapaine]

It may be possible to see the old island.

[Cannonfury]

I wonder if there's a way to get passed the invisible wall at the end of the world =o
