Next 'New' island
 

You all know they blew up tortuga and port royal well guess whats next.


I believe its Padres Del Fuego

This is for real just launch your ship at padres you should see about 3 juggernauts and an EITC fleet.

It serves as a good place to lvl up on a quiet server.

why not cuba? and is it Just the main tp islands?? or are they redoing All the islands?

you know i did see quite a bit more etic ships and not one navy ship by padres could be true :) .

i really hope its cuba because there is nothing really there... maybe they can add more content there, perhaps new quest material? make cuba more of a main island than say cangrejos or anvil... padres can be left last in the list because it actually looks good... the new islands seem to be based out of padres. perhaps put more skellys around and in cuba, you know becuase of the voodoo thing. it is the loneliest place in POTCO. you go there because you have to not because it might be a fun place to level or hang out like the other main islands.

I go to cuba to rank in enemies defeated...20 gators a minute :)

I rather see a new Cuba. Definitely, Cuba needs a renovation ASAP.
Padres looks just great as it is, I hope they dont change it.

Cuba needs a massive over haul its basically only there for tia dalma and thats it.

Tia will be upset if they blow up Cuba and curse them for one thousand years!!



:psmiley27:

I like cuba and I do hope they make it better.. but padres could change just a little.. like make the fort a little closer to the town so the travel time is cut down a bit....

I do feel they will do padres next, primarily because of lag. There are long distances from the gyspies side of town to Fort Dundee. It is the reason they re-did the other Islands is to try and minimize those distances. So it will be next on the list. I like how it is, but nice to have things change up also.
I don't know if they plan to do all the islands, but agree Cuba needs more there.
Also I don't feel Isla Perdida does much, mainly wasps there and you have to see Scary Mary. I rarely go to Cutthroat as well since it doesn't have much of a purpose overall.

Personally I think Padres is great as it is. It was the best looking township in the whole game. Still is. Plus it had a number of areas already in place for future expansion.

Id definately go with Cuba, it NEEDS something new. For the role it plays, there is nothing there.. should definately be alot more robust than it is.

Your right they did it because of lag ().
They did it to limit line of sight to decrease lag... which I have never experienced in Padres in the past year of playing.. wow, ive been playing for a full year now!
(It had nothing to do with distances from Gypsies to other places, etc)

The only reason they are Redoing the islands is because they are too big, Padres i think will get redone before cuba if it does get redone.

ROFL :laughks2:


Yeh, Cuba needs a big renovation. Padres is just fine as it is and so was PR and Tortuga :skull:

Will :piratewheelgo2:

Think about it if they re-do all the islands (wild included) it will be like a new game! I certainly hope Cuba is next.... it is in HUGE need of an explosion.

I'm kind of okay with the wild islands though.. i think it would be cool if they made a new island.. like Singapore. But really go all out on the layout and graphics.. I think if all else Singapore should look like the movie.. with all the steam and everything

The only problem with such detail (not arguing, it would definately be cool) is it would have the opposite effect of what they are indicating they are trying to reduce... Lag. Texture/image detail will cause more lag vs preventing it which they are trying to do at present.

All for a Singapore at some time in the game. Also think the wild islands are sufficient as they are.

I think the only thing they really need to do with Padres is putting the Navy Fort in a separate zone and perhaps Las Pulgas as well. I'm sure they plan to add to Cuba as well.

Right now I'm REALLY taking advantage of the ships around Padres for cannon rep. I think it's great islands are getting a makeover, and Cuba is in desperate need of one. Anybody know how to get in touch with Extreme Makeover Island Addition?

Perhaps a complete makeover would be too much, but some good additions and a few revisions are in order on Padres. Cuba does need more to it, but like we've said before, Tia Dalma will make sure "...they will be cursed for ever and eternity....."

(I know, wrong movie....)

Rofl now thats funny!

"Send in a video of you island and maybe you can win an Island Makeover!"

I think it was "...always and eternity," but yeah, good reference. Cuba seem rather base, having nothing for anyone over a certain level 4-6 with the grenades or staff respectively. Padres may need a do-over because of the back beach taking a long way to reach safely. Cuba could use some stores.

New Cuba!!
 

I would like to see Cuba change some. It is a teleport island, but once you get all of your Voo Doo items there is no need to go there, it is kind of a waste of a teleport spot to me. I would like to see them shrink the area around Tia Dalma, and add another swamp on the opposite end of the island. I would like to see some super high level enemies and bosses there, possibly an undead witchdoctor that has a voo doo staff as a weapon. They could even maybe add a dank run down shack or two with people offering some new quests (I would like to see some more of those people on all the islands though lol).

i would like to see some quests with the island makeovers even if it is sink 100 navy ships and the reward is a new hat just give us something to do.

That better be one fancy hat to be sinking 100 ships for :laughks2:

Chele

ya cuba need to be redone

the only reason the developers are redoing the islands is to reduce lag. They think what is causing the lag is the open space, next thing you know they will have the high seas redone.

I sure hope not.
But reducing lag is something I don't see here. I've been experiencing more lag than ever on POTCO. I would hope they would try their hardest to fix lag issues without creating less space.

Everytime I get on I start off fine then, Bam! im lagging :(


For some reason if im on a pirate and not lagging, then log to get on another pirate..When i get on the second one its so much lag :(

who need a new town we need new content..............maybe soon i hope ...........arggggg

I do agree that cuba should be next , and oddly all the juggernauts left the area.

Guess it took too long and they gave up.....
or they took them out for some reason.

And just to think, how many things do you think they can add to cuba?

I was thinking putting in some navy and jolly roger's army it might make the doll quest a bit
faster to do. Since then they can get skeleton bone dust from the island and get th doll faster.

Woo! I'm excited!
i love all the new islands!
i cant wait till padres!
im glad they are changing them!
the old versions were getting boring!

-Elizabeth :)

The main function for Cuba after the Tia Dalma quests are completed was as a launching off point for Tormenta. I found that was the nearest TP point to cut down the time on water. If you don't have a crew member or guildie in the cave, it seems like you run out of grenades all the faster. Back before the increased carrying capacity of grenade pouches leveling 'nades was an exercise in time management / efficiency.

I'd still like to have a gunsmith and swordsmith on Cuba exactly because it is a convenient jumping off point for Tormenta.

Next new island will be....(drum roll)......."Fantasy Island"

De Plane!! De Plane!!!!

:laughks2:

That's Exactly what I thought. If they were to make any other islands, why not either Singapore or the cross shaped island where they had their big meeting

Or shipwreck Island :pirate2:

thanks for the info mate I am going to stay at padres till they blow it up, and see for myself what happens!

I'm all for a totallly new island to go explore. But if they don't do that I'm hoping they redo Cuba because it really has nothing but Tia and gators.
