I knew the weapon drops were coming, but new clothes too!? Woohoo! Also...

Does this mean we can fit more pirates on a single account? Hmm, we shall see.....

yeah i dont get that new feature

The updates are now on test.. don't see that listed there though.

I just posted the notes in the correct areas.

Man, these are going to take a long time to load when they come out. This is heavy.

"New and improved animations" :Now that is something intriguing ,it makes me wonder if the boss battle and other cuts have been repaired in addition....
New clothes are always good as well.

Now we're only missing the actual island form of Raven Cove....I bet that's next.

If this update means being able to create and have more characters than that is something surely worthwhile and makes for a greater update.



Lol ,I think that is one of the best quotes in a while. :)

Here are some pictures of the update.

You can know take your pants off, but there will be underwear on you.(it looks like short pants)

Some of the new weapons like the blunderbusser(is that right?) and the musket requires you to be above level 25 for the pistol, so start leveling up guys!

P.S. Some of the character animations look way better. The arms look more like arms now, not just weird ellipses combined with blocks moving. It looks really good, IMO.

So far there are a few bugs but this update rocks! The blunderbuss is cool, the pistol skill has been changed to the shooting skill to include the blunderbuss and bayonet. The blunderbuss is like a shotgun short range powerful and can hit multiple enemies. The bayonet has really long range imagine take aim with the pistol but regular even longer with take aim and attack changes to slash if enemy gets close. A new class of swords, sabres, with different combos less damage but very fast combos about half the time of cutlass. Most weapons now have their own unique ability like a doll that has a recharging skill to shield those attuned from voodoo attack, or a cutlass that has a built in tonic skill that recharges. It is 42 total clothing items plus the 7 equiped so 49 total that is the only thing I see that could use changing otherwise very good job D best update in 2 years!

Crazypirate just about explained the update. Although I haven't been able to find any lost weapons yet, and I probably won't because I'm a lower level, and the new lost weapons probably come from higher level enemies.

But the update is great. Hopefully it's here soon on the live servers since there aren't any serious bugs.(from my understanding, anyways.)

Just saying, I got a dread staff (the first one) from an undead gravedigger on Port Royal (also got a few tonics, gold, a hat, shirt, etc.) I however can't use the staff due to me being level 19..

Gold seems to be unlimited too... I have like 72,000 gold now. And Heal and Cure don't split when using it on multiple pirates. If your heal gives 1000 points back and you're attuned to three pirates, they all get 1000 heal points and not 333 each.

As far as drops they seem to be pretty regular. The broadswords and such have unique moves and so your animation when attacking is totally different. I will add I noticed a flag in Fort Charles that I dont remember being there before has a cannon on it and somebody told me they had seen a new building on Tort with the same flag. I will check into both and get screanies and post em if I can figure it out LOL

I'm a lvl 15 basic on test, and I got a blunderbuss and a musket that I can use, so I'm happy. I also can change some of my clothes. Where would I most likely find a bayonet? Probably one of the forts, eh?

Just in time!!!!! I just got accepted into test yesterday!!! SO EXCITED.
