Did you like the Hunters update,
 
I was wondering, did you guys like the Hunters update?

I didn't, they bother me when trying to loot solo.

Dark_Pixie 07-25-2011 04:20 PM

I didn't like it either at first, but it grew on me. I just dock quite a lot, and I've noticed that skeletons and phantoms don't cause it to level up. The guy constantly shouting when I sink a ship gets on my nerves though, who invited him to the crew? :P

akamystic 07-25-2011 04:20 PM

Depending on which day of the week it is my opinion changes.

The Stealthy Pirate 07-25-2011 06:25 PM

Maybe. I mean yes its fun sinking hard ships and getting a good booty, but its not fun getting shouted at by Gibbs.

combatlizzy 07-25-2011 07:16 PM

I think the Scoundrels update is a lot of fun. Don't think it was created for solo sailing, but to bring pirates together in the Caribbean-to create more of a community. When I sail alone, I too dock when my cargo is full. But, with a crew, it's Sea how far ya can Go, mates! I enjoy it every time even though we might end up getting sunk now & again.

I agree with Pixie...:piratewheelgo2:

Awesome sea update, second to the Fleets only in my opinion. The Tally-ho and Red Dervish are by far my favorite Bountyhunters.

WeirdBeard 07-25-2011 10:24 PM

I say maybe, i picked no, but... i like 'em kinda. When someone else is driving.

Mr. Awesome 07-25-2011 10:25 PM

Simply one of the best updates of the game, ever.

oh... and I also agree with that. :piratetongueor4:

Captain Jason 07-26-2011 12:34 AM

Weirdbeard is right, it is a little annoying when looting solo, but still, I like 'em. They're simply a fun change of pace.

Davy_Mcwrecker 07-26-2011 03:00 PM

I voted no........ I always sail solo, for reasons unknown. and now, as if gunner's quest wasn't enough, I have over powered, over speeded ships on my tail.
Boo update! We need something a bit more fun than making a ridiculous quest harder! :(

Kat Five Knives 07-26-2011 03:23 PM

I voted yes. I imagine if you do not have close friends or guild that it would be a bit of an irritant, but I love how it pulls the crew together - all working for the goal of making it to an island with your loot and your sanity intact.

As a ship ranker I was afraid at first that it would negatively impact my ranking ships, but so far that has not happened. If I only sink the small ships around the Anvil my loot rarely if ever becomes worth enough to attract the bounty hunters. I can still sink ships for a couple of hours without porting.

Yes I do love this update.

Captain Will Cannonfury 07-26-2011 06:28 PM

I like the Hunters update because it makes the game alot more realistic. You probably already know this, but when pirates used to raid and plunder the seas, bounty hunters would go after them. And I think if the Hunters didn't get the job done, then they send the Navy out.

Captain C83 07-28-2011 06:45 AM

I like it for the most part. Could do without the pirate voice constantly talking though. Maybe he should only talk when your scoundrel level goes up and only then.

Two of Spades 07-28-2011 03:16 PM

I like the new update, but every now and then it can just get in the way. :pirate_flag:

Nick The Titan 07-28-2011 03:52 PM

The update is okay depending on what i'm doing.

Captian Blimey John 07-29-2011 09:44 PM

Hate it. The voice makes disturbances in my house and sometimes scares the bejeezes outta me when I'm not expecting it. The hunters only provide gold, which due to the gold cap I have no use for. Not to mention the fact that the hunters and their aimbot explosive broadsides are extremely overpowered. The last reason is that NOBODY asked for it. People asked for famed staffs, guild islands, the Kraken, the usual stuff. What do we get? An annoying voice actor, overpowered enemy ships, and port closures, that add nothing really fresh to the game.

LoL. Disney comes up with the most unusual things, and the things you want. I think we'll get the things we want AFTER the things we never would of thought of. I picked yes. I like sinking the Ship of the line and I don't half to get into treasure fleets with Lots-o-lag. And It's better than a treasure fleet. Would you like 7-9 ships attacking you than 1-2 ships attacking you that are very, VERY strong ships.

Yes.

ruisen2000 08-02-2011 08:57 AM

It was a nice update, and added a new challange for level 50's (as requested by many people).
But I would also like to see disney add a major update this summer that "keeps" players playing, like loot. SOTS is nice, but if its the only thing we get for this entire summer....
no rum for you, disney....

Katrina Sunsteel 11-13-2011 06:24 AM

Hunter update needs to go
 
I don't like the hunter update, as it makes it less enjoyable to sail and loot for plunder. A lot of us in our guild used to like to sail for hours just getting gold, and this makes it impossible now to hold together a good crew.

Godzillan 11-13-2011 07:19 AM

I absolutely love it.

Even that creepy pirate voice can be cool at times. Mainly when the lady sounds like a manly pirate!

Chalupa 11-13-2011 07:40 AM

This was a great update, and it will truly show it's greatness when the NEW updates come out to live!

Now I really agree with that. :laughks2: I think the hunters and ship customization are pretty much a two part mega-update. ;)

Red Nations 12-03-2011 10:33 PM

I have mixed feelings about the update. The update can be fun, but I'm also a player who likes to sail solo for loot and to level sailing and cannon skills. As such I don't care for anything that causes a disruption to my game play. The update also makes it difficult to keep a crew together for plundering. I would be in favor of an option allowing those of us who wish to turn off the update for regular old style sailing without hunters and port closures.

Rannulf 12-04-2011 01:30 AM

Simple solution.

Only sail against skeleton ships. They do not activate the hunters.
