Who else is staying on the Test Server?
 
I can't sign up for the full game, and I kinda hate to give up my level 19 status and start over again anyway.
Who else is staying on the test server?
I'm Meg Darkcasle in the game.

Dennis 11-01-2007 05:05 PM

I'll be staying on the test server too. My budget won't allow me to pay for Pirates at this time.

Trident 11-01-2007 05:16 PM

Test is for me!!!!
 
Both me and My wife will be stayin on Test. We both have paid accounts but prefer Test over Open. We also have Test accounts on Toontown and never play on open.

So look for Darkrage and Lisa Wildbones to be stayin on test....

Diamond Silver Heat 11-01-2007 07:25 PM

I plan on staying on test unless it gets too empty to get some help with stuff.

Peggo 11-01-2007 07:34 PM

Yeah, that's why I'm asking. It's getting hard to get through some of the more menacing villains without lots of help.
I'm glad to see some people are still playing on test. I hope more will drop in too. I realize they are trying to get their new pirates up to the higher levels, but hey guys, we need you!

goofy007 11-01-2007 08:11 PM

I will probably play on both server for a while. Probably on the test servers more though.

As you have mentioned I think many people will want to start playing to get there new pirates to higher levels.

Silly Princess 11-01-2007 09:20 PM

I'll be going back to test after I get my open pirate worked up, AND if they fix my test character who is still bugged and can't complete tasks or get new ones. I have two lower ones on test to play too, but I'd like to get the open one higher before I work secondaries.

Meg? This is Jack Whalebones nice to see ye!

Peggo 11-02-2007 01:18 AM

Hey Jack. See you in the game!
I was wondering if those of us on the test server could play on one ocean and get the players all on that one.
I suppose we could choose one at random and all go there or, if when we enter, one is ideal we go there?

pon14 11-02-2007 02:39 AM

I am, much quieter, feel free to PM me if you want to be-friend my brand new character!

Wendot 11-02-2007 02:55 AM

How do you play on the test server? When I open pirates, I don't see where the option would be and my beta pirate has disappeared.

pon14 11-02-2007 02:57 AM

You have to download the Beta Server (I can give u a link if you want) and then you can play it on there. And my Beta pirate was deleated to even on the TEST server where it wasn't but still..

A link would be great. I didn't realize I'd have to do that much work to preserve playing on my beta pirate.

Toontown4ever 11-02-2007 04:33 AM

Wait you can keep your beta pirate and test server but not play open?

pon14 11-02-2007 01:11 PM

Ok heres the link http://x.go.com/329397?eid=null&uid=107224944
Just download it and you can just log in and play with your normal Beta account. But, you might still have your character or you might not, cuz mine got deleated so...


And yes they said that you could play as your beta character in the TEST server but it would not be carried over to the real game but my character just got plain deleated even on the test server.

Hope I helped

Pirate Rose 11-02-2007 01:54 PM

If you're not paying are they still allowing you to play on test? Are you still unlimited?

Aww. That stinks. I'd hate it if my 21 lvl got deleted.:skull:

pon14 11-02-2007 02:16 PM

Yes playing on the test server is free and you should have unlimited access (just like you paying:laughks2:)

And that would suck

Davy 11-02-2007 04:35 PM

I will be playing test now and then. I'm going to e-mail the crew and ask if my pirate can be kept if I pay for Live every other month. I think it will be fun to keep my Live player at the same point as my Test player so I can practice the quests on test and do them in live. I also really want to know what happens after 'The List' quest is over for my Story Chapter!

Peggo 11-02-2007 09:38 PM

Oh that's not right!
My pirate is intact on the test server. At least she was last night.

Yup. Free unlimited and almost level 20!
I think they made it crash a lot to discourage everyone staying on the test server. But I perservere. The limited access is just too horrible and taunting with all the locks on it. Ugh.

pon14 11-02-2007 10:16 PM

Well mine was deleated:pirate7::pirate5::skull:

otto88812 11-02-2007 11:55 PM

It depends...do free unlimited acess apply on open as well beta?

Peggo 11-03-2007 01:20 AM

No. You have to start all over again on open.

HaveAMagicalDay 11-03-2007 01:39 AM

I'm going to go on the open one not the test here's why:

I get on the test everyday for 20 minutes, and none of my friends are on.

I want to find my guild members but they aren't coming on the test, and I can't find them in the other place. We had a meeting place in the game, but it didn't work because we picked a place and world, but the world isn't there.

I want to get my weapons sooner, to work on them sooner. Voodoo is now open to you at Notoriety level 4.

More friends to find, I like my old ones too, if I see them, I'll ask them with no problem, but it won't be easy lol.

pon14 11-03-2007 02:49 AM

I can understand that

Colombiano 11-03-2007 03:24 AM

I am staying on the test server since it is free and I can't afford another game :|

pon14 11-03-2007 04:05 AM

Yea and I perfer it quieter

captainsora 11-03-2007 04:39 AM

i'm still on test because right now it won't fit my budget.:piratesing:

Peggo 11-04-2007 02:41 AM

A fun plundering couple you two are....or Arrr!
See you in the game.:laughks2:

SandySeashore 11-05-2007 01:11 AM

Im staying on the test server too :wheel:

JoG 11-05-2007 11:54 AM

I am wondering if Disney will eventually follow the ToonTown model and suspend accounts of people on test that do not play on open. They may not have purged beta since the game is not really ready for prime time yet (More bugs in open than on test it seems). Purging test would also bring that community play down to almost nothing.

Right now I am working my character on open and have hit level 21. Like many others here my friends are on open. I do pop into test though and if you see me just shout out for help. The test name is Jeremiah O'Ginty.

skullduggery bones 11-07-2007 11:19 PM

Hi all I'm in the UK and have to play on test. Though since open opened all my test friends seem to have gone over so most days I play on my own (awwwwwwwwwwwwwww everyone say please LOL)
My pirates a girl named Skullduggery Bones if you come across her shes a lvl 26 and looking for the treasure in the cave on Isla Tormenta (where the scurvy dogs are lvl 34 and kill me every time LOL) I need help if theres anyone out there and also to get the ingredients on Kingshead for my grenade. pm me and maybe we can get together.

Yikes. They did that? I guess I had better start my character at least. But I really hate doing all those quest over again. Sigh.:wheel:

Shabby_Skipper 11-08-2007 07:19 AM

I started my character on the Open server, but Basic access sucks! After playing with everything available on Test, there's no way I can play on Open with basically everything locked. I'm staying on Test for sure.

skullduggery bones 11-10-2007 06:16 PM

Woohooo I've joined open too!! Good old paypal! Seems even if your in the UK they'll take your money, so I've joined up for a whole year. I must be mad!!! I have noticed things seem to be a lot harder on open or is it sooooo long ago I've forgotten what it's like to have a pirate with small notoriety LOL. So i'm gonna play both! (when not cooking or cleaning or all those other mindless chores us ladies have to do lol)

HaveAMagicalDay 11-11-2007 03:32 AM

I might now actually be going back to the beta testing because:

1) They test new things there first

2) I miss my notoriety, it takes forever to get it back lol

~Cpt.Sea

Peggo 11-11-2007 04:15 AM

Welcome back. The more the merrier!

Gabyta 11-11-2007 04:57 AM

how can I go back to beta server? where is that option? :smiley20:

The beta server is the one that you were playing before the game opened. In an e-mail, you had the choice to download both of them. Right click on the icon of which you play from, and look at its properties. You can then see whether it is test or full game.

Personally, I'll be going on the test server again right after I've got my levels up on the full one. If I decide to stay on the full one, I'll upgrade.
Time will tell! :dancetl6:

Dolnor 11-15-2007 10:20 AM

I am on test after beta and I am actually submitting bug reports. I don't feel right playing without testing.

Toodles,

Toontown4ever 11-17-2007 05:42 AM

I'm staying.
I miss making things going boom with my grenades and besides, I miss my combos.

Bettie McBonney 11-17-2007 08:49 AM

test is where i wanna be
 
howdy mates,

Yeah, after two days of lag on open, little sister Bess can sit in jail while big sister Bettie goes after that voodoo staff, not to mention all the cool grenades and stuff.

oh and finally figure out where to dig for that earring (lol)

Not surprising that a lot of you are already on my friends list (thank each and every one for all the help) and also probably not surprising that we have been throwing pies together to get a certain guy over a cliff for years now. (years? yes, years)

so when you're ready for Kingshead (Skullduggery? others?) i'm thinking of opening a small travel agency there. let me know...

Bettie McBonney

ps - where are the dregs?

Teyla 11-18-2007 01:35 AM

I'll stay on test (I'll play on open from time to time, though).

It'd be great if they would accept my name, though (I suppose declining my name wouldn't be too bad either, as long as I can pick a new name). I'd rather not be Buccaneer forever ;D

disfan_2 12-13-2007 01:17 AM

I plan on staying on test most of the time. It's quieter.


I've noticed that open seems harder too. It's taking me much longer to get my notoriety up.
