War Galleon Flying Glitch...NOOOOOOO!!! - Pirates of the Caribbean Online Fansite & Forums

Dangit D...you're really starting to bug me.

Why take it out? WHY? Was walking through masts really that big of a deal that you had to remove an actual fun, harmless Easter Egg of a glitch?

I'm not pleased.

PS: What's worse is that they've added a ton of new, annoying bugs. Treasure sense doesn't seem to be working (I've gotten 90% cargo crates this morning...with maxed treasure sense...off level 30+'s...), enemy ships' life bars disappeared so I had no idea what their status was...

And, of course, stupid little things, like enemy ships sailing around with their sails raised. This is getting so old...

alway somthing every time they upgrade just the way it is. lol

Why play the game then if it's getting old? Stop wasting your money.

And treasure sense, DOES NOT GARUNTEE ROYALS.

Treasure Sense improves what you will get it does not guarentee a good haul

and yea i wish they would worry about the big annoying game impacting glitches and leave the fun glitches alone for now

I havent tried it since the update, if it's fixed I sympathize, but all glitchs should likely get fixed eventually.

If your not referring to SvS I didnt have this problem at all, as a matter of fact, it gave me a little diagram so I knew where the enemy ship was hurtin most (like the one we have for our ship). Must have been something glitching.

I noticed this for sure, was battling a Monarch, that was moving normal speed, it had all its sails, yet they were 'down', as if still (not as if knocked down).

The game's not getting old, Big D is.

My response to that is "No Duh".

Pre-update I was bringing in 600-1000+ gold every run. Now, I've yet to break 400. Zero royals thus far; my last trip only had two treasure chests...out of 16 spots, that's really crummy. Not to mention, the Captain's bonus is gone (for me, at least...anyone else?).

It was my favorite thing...

It's happened in both, today I've just been plundering and nothing appeared at the top of my screen after a certain point (not just for one ship, but all ships). Also, in SvS, enemies weren't appearing on my radar, period, and sometimes when they did, they were all blue, regardless of which side they were on.

Yep, that's it.

Also on the topic of sails...I can't seem to hit them anymore. My aim's pretty lousy, and the sails made things doable - much bigger area to tag.

This was happening in normal play last night! At least ship not showing up on radar.... didnt have any misrepresented on the radar though.

I noticed last night they seemed harder to hit as well. Hitting the canvas didnt seem to register a hit, I had to make sure to target the masts.

I did too! I was thrilled...you don't even know.

Captain Seaford · #10 07-26-2008, 03:41 PM

So practically it still works. HA, BIG D!

bdawg3496 · #11 07-27-2008, 02:40 AM

how do u do it

Dr. Zeppers · #12 07-27-2008, 04:51 AM

It worked for me as it usually does. I dont think they paid any attention to this glitch. hehe. However perhaps other tweaks make it a little harder? Took me about 30 seconds and i was off my boat swimming. (its usually 50/50 sometimes i swim, sometimes i fly).

Didn't have a lot of time to post on this one until now, but as far as I know there was no attempt on Test to fix this issue or any postings on it - so carry on (unless there was an unexpected fix to something else fixing this - but I don't believe so).

I believe it was a part of the "walking through masts" issue.

The WG flying glitch was done by manning one of the top cannons, exiting it, and simply walking through the railing in front of you (it was like it wasn't there at all; it was not a wall hacky type thing). Because of the angle of the deck where you walk off, it's like being on an invisible staircase - walk forward and you go up, backwards and you go down.

Since the update, you can no longer just walk right out, you actually have to glitch through the railing.

Also on the subject of glitching through stuff, it seems some other holes have been fixed as well.

Didnt know about that one, I was thinking of something else.

The sails not being out alot of the time is bugging me though. You have to hit the masts now to take out sails (probably more accurate). Those sails that are tied up even though the ship is moving, seem to suddenly fill out and catch air, just as I take them down, too little too late I keep thinking when I see it.
