So far for me, the game is running very smoothly. Not getting the choppiness I have been getting lately. I just switched back to DirectX9 to see if the Fireball colors were fixed but didn't have the chance to investigate that yet.

I like the new Tuga cause it's giving the game a new feel. But I do miss hanging out on the hill where I didn't get the endless "be my friend" or "join my crew" requests. Nice little hideout.

I'm sooooo happy to have the emotes and the crew tab back. I still think they should make the friends list unlimited. I found the little note that comes up when you make a new friend rather amusing. It said something like. This friendship exists only in the Pirates of the Caribbean Online and only with select pirates. I told my pirate friends that have become RL friends that we weren't allowed to be friends anymore because it only exists in POTCOL.

Haven't found the Misty Mire yet (as my time on was limited) unless it is that area where you go down those boards but there was no indication it was the Misty Mire so I'll be looking around for it later tonight. That other area only had Gators so I doubt that was it.

I'm hearing mixed reviews from people saying they like or don't like the new changes. For me personally I find the changes refreshing. Gives a bit of new feel to the game because now I have to actually look for stuff and I'm discovering new things on the way.

On another note - Just before this update, I was training nades on Kingshead last night, and Ed and I discovered that the Voodoo doll was not gaining rep or gold from healing friends. We tried several things to see if that changed anything and it didn't.

I do not know if this was addressed in this update or if it was an isolated incident. I reported it last night but I dont know if other ppl were having probs with this. Also don't know if it was limited to just Kingshead or if that is an issue elsewhere as well.

Edit - The problem of pirates coming on as Lvl 1 with no weapons is still an issue. A friend of mine came on when i was on and he was freaked out by it. His name tag said he was lvl 16, but he said his Noto indicator said lvl 1 and he couldn't draw a weapon. He relogged and it returned to normal. And no I'm not talking about you Ed. This was a different friend and it was just this afternoon (after this big update)
