Release Notes - March 30, 2010

• We are currently fixing technical issues on the TEST Server and hope to have El Patron's Lost Weapons back online. However, until all the inventory bugs are fixed, your daily progress on the TEST Server may be lost.

At least they admit it

aww the mac issue isnt fixed yet. :'( :( :/

Thanks for the update.

Well, I'm going on test, and I'll try not to get into it too much, since I could lose progress.

I want to go on and see if there are any more bugs.

Wouldn't be so bad if I didn't lose a character that I made 3 months ago.. Still, this is just another level of their tests.

The crashing is more out of control than it was when the Fleets were on Test - that wasn't so bad since it would be going into certain places ( Like the Misty Mire ) and getting booted. But this is outrageous. The only weapons I can use are the Blades, AKA the Sword and Dagger. Trying to pull out a Staff, Grenade, Doll or even a Pistol causes me to crash! So right now, I'm stuck with a Pirate Blade Cutlass, a Great Broadsword, a Master Sabre, and a Bloodletter Dagger.
Edit: I also crash at random times, but rarely.
Edit 2: I ALSO seem to crash when going deep into the swamp on Tortuga. It seems to make me crash in the same spot ( Entering from where the King's Arm is, and going deeper into the swamp from that entrance.
Edit 2.5: I also crashed when going to town. Maybe there's an issue with Tortuga?


But hey, this is a Test Server, after all. This is natural, typical trial and error going on.

I noticed two things when I was playing, was just curious as to if anyone else experienced it.

I tried to crew someone and the invite sent, however they were already in a crew. There wasn't a message saying that they were in another crew, instead it just disappeared.

Also, the first offline friend I have on all my pirates is a blank space. When I click it, it just brings up a blank card that says loading?


edit: never mind, was a one time deal for the first one - although second remains.

I created a new pirate with my basic account for the meantime till more things get worked out. Afterall I dont want to lose all my stuff on my 4 higher lv pirates on my unlimited account.
First thing I noticed when I made the new pirate, hopefully named Bubba Fett, he had Yo' Da Pirate's friends list! Dont understand that one. And I'm talking pirate friends, not just player.
Cant buy tonics. I swear I have with Yo' Da Pirate before. But some peole are saying that you cant buy tonics on test if you are basic. IDK for sure, but its hard to get a loot sac to drop with tonics and potions sometimes. I was just there and got booted too. The launcher said that pirates encountered a problem. I waited for a minute for the report a bug to come up but it didnt. Who knows whats up, but I needed a break anyway, lol.

Hey, can anyone confirm for us all if there are still weapon quests for certain levels like level 14 cutlass? Just wondering, because I really hope those don't go away.

There still are Mac.

Thanks, just wanted to make sure. :)

Whenever i try to log on to test, it wants me to fill out the bug report, but when i do, it doesnt go through or something. I go to play on test but the bug report comes up again. EDIT: Can anyone help me with this?

BTW : I am kinda a newbie tester, so if this is normal, take it easy on me. :piratetongueor4:

Here's a tip for you guys - DO NOT GO TO CUBA WHATSOEVER!!!

I was trying to get to killing Swamp Gators in the swamp on Tortuga, but I couldn't get there because of the Booting Barrier. So I decided to try and go to Cuba. I expected a boot at some point on the island, but guess what?
The boot happens when GOING to the island.

I'm now still on Cuba, and because of that, I CAN NOT GO ON MY LV40 PIRATE. So, I have to make a new pirate in order to play. The bad part is that I cannot go get myself a Voodoo Doll/Staff, or complete some other tasks that require you to go to Cuba.

I warn you again - do not, I repeat, DO NOT go to Cuba.

If you're playing from the browser, the same thing has happened to me. I don't know what is the deal with it and I actually sent a bug report about the never ending bug report screen. That's pretty much the only thing I can suggest for trying to solve it. For all we know, they're tweaking the browser version of the game somehow.
