What things would you pay for?
 
It has been rumored that special items will cost real money in the game. If this is true, what items would you be willing to pay for?

Tepcat 01-19-2007 04:37 AM

As a non-paying member of Runescape, storage space is always a nice thing

TooHip 01-19-2007 04:43 PM

Pay? Im just ecstatic that I can play at all without having to pay. I will concede that depending on how cool the items are, I may have to pony up for them. Dont count on it though, I'm cheap like that. :)

Teyla 01-22-2007 09:44 PM

To be honest I probably wouldn't pay at all

Either that or stop paying for TT to pay for that stuff

haha.

All of them! I'm really excited about the game so I honestly don't care what I have to pay for.

Capt.Winner 02-10-2007 07:59 AM

Pay? No thanks....o.o

To bad we already know we have to pay...

SeasickCharlie 02-10-2007 11:11 AM

I'll probably pay for it to get the full effect.

jsmall 02-12-2007 06:48 PM

I'll probably pay. But with that i'll probably stop playing toon-town so im not spending all my money.

Indianajo75 02-16-2007 08:35 PM

I would pay anyway, who cares?

Tepcat 03-05-2007 05:32 AM

Well, based on the 12 who have voted so far it looks as if storage capacity and ships are the big winners. And if they make storage capacity a ship - then they satisfy the demand with one easy programming step.....cool

Now we just have to come up with names for our ships.

If i pay.. probably for full game.. i want to see the game first

Same with Jolber, I'm gonna start out playing the free game for a while, and if I like it enough, then I'll pay for the whole game. But i might have to quit ToonTown if I do want to pay for POTC.

alubadubdub 03-14-2007 01:18 AM

Same as Jolber and Ducky. I will start with my free account and see how much I like it and which things I might need to pay for.

Sidestep 03-14-2007 01:21 AM

It all depends on how it goes. But I'd definitely want a ship.

piratesrock 03-14-2007 01:22 AM

I would defenitely pay for the storage capacity.

Etrain4242 03-14-2007 01:24 AM

I will probably pay, as long as the things are reasonable, and knowing disney, they will be. Considering toon town is only 10$ a month i think it will be fairly cheap. They have to get paid some how:)

Goldfish 03-14-2007 01:42 AM

don't we get a free account if we join toontown, or is it a temporairy free account

Devin 03-14-2007 02:05 AM

I'll most likely pay for all. I'll just stop ToonTown and go to POTC Online... :rolleyes:

Penguinz 03-14-2007 03:11 AM

I sure hope not!

I picked: Crew Capacity, Ship, and Weapon Upgrades.

It's already going to cost enough, I really hope that they won't charge to play things in the game.

Ugh.

Ngendi 03-14-2007 04:15 AM

Well, I'm gonna play it without paying. If I don't like it I'll ask my parents if I can start paying for it.

Maleficent_Rocks 03-14-2007 05:58 AM

I'll pay for it all. All it means is just adjusting my budget, less movies or silly stuff like that. A sacrifice I am willing to make :)

Ducky Wucky 03-14-2007 06:42 AM

I'm starting to think that Disney will make it like Toontown. Where you can't do many things unless you pay for a member account.
You never know!

How kind of free things can you do in Toontown? I thought it was pay or nothing...

Well, you have the free trail. So you can't really play forever. And when you do the free trial, you are limited to a lot of things in the game. When you dot he trial, you're not even like REALLY playing the game. O_o

JohnnyGunflint 03-14-2007 08:10 AM

I would imagine us paying for more crew space and exclusive abilities.

Qui-gon 03-14-2007 03:12 PM

No, I won't pay for this game. I think it will be fun enough. ;)

Well, it depends on how the paying system works. If it's a $20 a month thing, I won't do it. But if it's something like $5.00 for a better ship, then I'd consider it.

~Q/S

WafflePrincess 03-14-2007 03:18 PM

I don't plan on paying for the game, but if I did I would buy a weapons ugrade. Gotta have the best guns and such. xD

Vampirate 03-14-2007 04:05 PM

Playing locations.

Ducky Wucky 03-14-2007 04:46 PM

Well, I'm hoping you won't have to pay for separate things. I hope you just get the whole package.

You will, probably, but to get exclusive items, perhaps a little cash here and there will help.

gigarichard 03-14-2007 08:38 PM

I would only pay if I would get my money's worth :p

And you most likely will, mate.
I think that this game is the only online game worth meh money.

Rattlebones 03-14-2007 08:52 PM

Looks like they're going the way of Shot-online.
The game itself and 99% of the content is free but you hve to pay for special items like exp doublers etc.

PinkTinkPixie 03-14-2007 09:58 PM

Well, that's good to know it's free to play, at least ;)

Same here :D

FoolsLove 03-15-2007 01:50 AM

Ships, storage space, and weapon upgrades. That's of course if I had the money to.

Same here! I'd like to think they don't cost all that much.

PirateSkull 03-15-2007 09:21 AM

Ships. But first, I'm going to play the free version for a while then switch over to pay.

sunnyskye 03-15-2007 12:02 PM

I would probably pay for playing locations. I would not pay probably, but i would want more playing locations.

Ducky Wucky 03-15-2007 04:08 PM

I would pay for Locations and ships, maybe crew space. And MAYBE item space.

soccergals 03-15-2007 08:23 PM

I'd probably pay for a friends list, but not much else.

oatman 03-17-2007 03:53 AM

I wish it would just be one full package like World of Warcraft, you pay 15 a month and get the full deal.

Pirate Jade 03-19-2007 07:13 AM

LOL ships..

BadgerHockey 03-19-2007 07:44 AM

From exprience on RuneScape, I would pay for,
-Item Space

But just knowing myself I would also pay for,
-Friends List
-Ships
-Weapon upgrades

Bang! Lemme at them! =D

Warioguy 03-19-2007 05:16 PM

You mean no monthly subscription? Sweet!

Back on topic. I would pay for storage space, 'cause it's very handy. I'd also pay for playing locations as well, once I got to a pretty high level. I'm hoping we won't have to pay for a friends list, though I would be very happy with simply paying for an upgrade to it.

Crew capacity, eh... I would pay for it if I had a crew, but odds are that would never happen. (I prefer to be a high-ranking official in an existing, preferable famous crew. XD)

Captain 03-20-2007 11:47 PM

Advanced character customization and extra areas to explore.

HaveAMagicalDay 03-21-2007 10:57 PM

I voted for friend lists. I voted that becuase you cant play with good friends if you cant get to them easy :) But of course ships are nice too :)

~Cpt.Sea

Pinkdust 03-21-2007 11:33 PM

Auuughhh... I don't waaaannnnaaaa paaaayyy! xp Bleh.

xRyuusei 03-21-2007 11:47 PM

Although I'm not one that's into paying to play, I'd choose ships, playing locations, weapon upgrades, or storage capacity.

gigathegreat 03-22-2007 12:17 AM

Definately for ships

Volitan 03-25-2007 03:51 AM

I'd pay for ships and locations, and maybe storage.

StitchMad 03-25-2007 09:12 AM

I'd rather donate to the forums than pay for this game. I've managed quite well on runescape without paying, why should I on this? xD

larkija 03-27-2007 09:28 PM

Hmm, I do not like buying things online. I can't choose, and if I had to pay something, I'd leave quicker than without paying anything.

I just hate buying things for games that ARE NOT REAL.

You pay like 5 dollars for a sword. :eek: I hope they do not do that...

Bellatrix 03-29-2007 01:18 AM

I would pay for everything. Yeah, this is all
not real. But I have Pirate issues, and I love
computer games, so this will be really nice.
I would pay the most money for a good ship,
though, because then I could run away from
enimies faster. :)

Iwannabeacaptain 03-29-2007 04:16 PM

Im just wondering if anyone knows forsure that this will be just a free game where you can pay for add ons like the ones mentioned in the poll. I was under the impression, that it would be like a free trial, and then you had to pay to play. Like a subscription as we do for TT or how it is for WOW, where you got a 14 day free trial and then you have to pay. I also dont know how they would enforce the fact, supposedly you have to be over 13 to play, if it was a free game over all.

I dont mean to ruffle any feathers or insult anyone who likes vmk or maple story, but if pirates is anything like those games, I will be so disappointed.

I am expecting high end graphics and amazing things, more along the line of WOW, and cant even understand that they would have a free game with things of that caliber. I think the game could be free for a certain amount of time, but I dont think that is the long term plan. I think once it gets up and running, a free trial period is what you will get, then you will have to pay, say after 10 days free, with limited access. Simlar to the 3 day free trial toontown gave. Or like WOW gave. But once they have you loving and addicted and wanting more..I think you are gonna have to subscribe in some form. I could be wrong, but that is what I am thinking.

Bellatrix 03-29-2007 04:52 PM

Ah, I thought it was free, but if you play
for free many features and areas of the
game won't be available. That way it will
be fair for those of us who pay.

I think the game won't be add ons. [I hope..]
We will probably just pay for a lot of coins
to buy item, like we get 100 coins a month
instead of 5.

I would not worry about the game play. I
still have not played VMK or MapleStory
yet, but the graphics here look a lot like
ToonTown's, which is fantastic. :)

piratewithskill 03-31-2007 05:38 PM

Personally I wouldn't pay for an online game. (my mom wont let me)

Magnet 04-04-2007 08:02 PM

I would pay a flat rate to play
 
There should be a flat rate (small, flat rate) to play and all add-ons are earned through game experience. Buying your way to the cool stuff is not the pirate way! The cool stuff must be plundered and pillaged and all sorts of other nasty, piraty things!!

WDSnav 04-04-2007 08:17 PM

Im definitly not paying for anything unless if the game makes a huge turns and becomes fun all of a sudden. Currently the beta is...lets just say "sucks". I believe that Disney may make it better although another thing im kinda worried about once its released is, lack of updates, look at toontown. We thought that estate gardening was very fun and addictive at first but maybe after about 2-4 weeks you couldn't even hardly extand to garden. I no longer play Toontown as it got boring because they didn't release enough things. I heard they recently came out with new trolley games but im seeing that being fun maybe for a week...please its only 4 or 5 minigames.

jadedstatik 04-10-2007 05:43 AM

I don't want to pay for individual features, but I did vote for ships, weapon upgrades, and other (which would be clothes for me). I would prefer to pay a monthly subscription fee and have all features available. I don't know if there are any puzzle pirates out there, but thats what it's like for that game.
