Are you willing to do the quest Captain Ezekiel Rott asks you to, or are you
going to side with Captain Walter and NOT do the quest?

Makes me wonder about what Basil said:

Quote:

Should we even DO this quest? Does it mean anything OTHER THAN gold and rep? By doing it, are we falling into a trap because we didn't listen to the Game Master's warnings about not helping JR and the EITC?
By doing it, is it going to open up something NEW (not immediately, but sometime down the road) for those who complete it?

What happens if we don't do the quest? If it comes down to: Do the quest and you one thing happens, or don't do it and another happens. I think it would be interesting not to do it. But if it makes no difference then I'd like to do it. So I'm a bit caught.

Could there be a third option? 'Undecided' LOL

Well, quite interesting as all that seems.

Im quite sure that all pirates are being setup for the outcome, which is not likely an option.
I see it as all being part of the story, since they are only letting a few pirates know of these 'dangers', Captain Walter will put the weight of what happens on all the other pirates in the game. Rott makes his plight known to all with presence (hes standing on the beach with his crew!) and quests. What has Captain Walter offered to ALL the pirates of the Caribbean? Heresay, rhetoric, and information which lacks 'focus' (leaving all interpretation up to us pirates). I not be against Captain Walter mateys... but

Weve all heard the saying "Put yer money where yer mouth is..." and well, I havent gotten a cent from Captain Walter.... (not even a helpful hand or hint)

Rosa_ESG · #5 08-23-2009, 07:55 PM

I guess there isn't a third option, you either do it or don't

all the gold... it's not cheap to try to look good... I decided to stay with Captain Walter on this
(I did do the quests on test... we'll see what happens..

)

I (at this moment) am not sure if I will do the quest. All I really get out of it is gold (and a "ok" amount of rep), this does nothing for me. I have maxed gold, and I will get all the rep I need when the next story line comes out. However, Disney will more than likely go down this route even if we don't do the quest.. so even if I chose not to, it wouldn't matter.

If I do go on at the time the quest is released to open, I will only do it if I have nothing better to be doing. Won't be at the top of my to-do list.

MacIronhawk · #7 08-23-2009, 08:05 PM

Is this quest only on test right now or open and test?

I'll be doing the quest either way. I like going against what Captain Walter wants us to do. Always fun to be on the baddies side...

Davy Keelhawk · #8 08-23-2009, 08:08 PM

its only on test

aye, it is fun to be on the baddies side

Dr. Zeppers · #9 08-23-2009, 08:13 PM

Well they absolutely cannot penalize pirates in any way for having done these quests (on open), without having given some public information on the official site for everyone to have a chance to interpret. Really, should all take place in game, and not via the site, and for that matter not via any specially arranged meetings. You cant present choices that determine a players outcome without explaining the choices, or that they are even making such a choice that would effect them. Every MMORG I have played tells you when you are about to make a decision of any magnitude that will control your path.

I just don't like that good for nothing Walter! I owe my allegiance to the highest bidder.

Davy Keelhawk · #11 08-23-2009, 08:15 PM

As I;ve said before:

Ummmmm, PIRATE??!!

combatlizzy · #13 08-23-2009, 08:27 PM

Hmmm...still not biting at this point!

Dr. Zeppers · #14 08-23-2009, 08:35 PM

We wont know until they release it to open.

If they dont announce anything on the site as far as this effecting your pirates path, then its just something else to do that they put a twist of their lore on.

I started a new pirate on test... afterall, im testing. With those quests, he was able to level up quickly, and buy a new ship real fast. Those quests are perfect for the new starting pirate.

I don't think he's trustworthy simply because his last name is Rott..... Rott as in "We will rot in the ground". Although, I do want my actions to doom us all... I mean... I want gold. So, yes, I will do the quest when it hits open
