Test Release Notes - April 2, 2010

[William ORoberts]

First, great fixes, and I'm surprised they did all these fixes before putting them on open.

Sorry I didn't quote it but is it really on open now?????

[nitnek]

Thanks for the answers mates. Can we see some screens of these new characters types ?

[Sven Osymthe]

The new bodies have been out for a while - just for pirates created after July 21, 2009. Had to do some searching, but I remembered posting it before, 5th post in this thread:
(You can tell the type of body by the icon)
http://www.piratesonlineforums.com/f...ad.php?t=12513

It just added some weight to our pirates - it's not really that big of a deal. Ever since they first came out I had a feeling they would be changed. After a few months of it being our "normal" pirates, that feeling went away. However, if Disney thinks that this will help the game, then there really isn't an issue, at least for me.

edit: there is now..

First, great fixes, and I'm surprised they did all these fixes before putting them on open.

Second, what's the difference between an EITC fleet and treasure fleet?
Third, did anyone even get a cursed weapon while on test?
Forth, what does that little bug fixes mean!?

Fifth, well, the amount of loot chests we get from enemies has decreased. Guess that means it will be harder to get those lost weapons.

2) There's no difference, it's referring to the EITC fleet.
3) I got a few, but was unable to use them
4) Bug fixes wasn't supposed to be included in the list itself, but rather to title the items listed below it
5) I'm just gonna guess, it might be easier to get it from the fleet, considering we always get a chest (it's guaranteed after all.. that might need to be tested..)

Thanks for the link! Yes! I remember that, it's not so bad

If you're a male pirate with the third body type it isn't too bad. But my poor Kat... I'm not sure of the exact date, but I know it was the week of the 18th of last June. My Kat is gonna go from looking like herself to looking like Melody Moonriver on the right.



I've had 10 months to get used to Kat the way she is, and I most decidedly do NOT want her looking like Melody, whose body type I still don't like. I just can't stand the 'new' body types for girls. It just isn't the same. I'm not gonna be happy about this change at all, if in fact it goes live. Assuming it does, D is gonna get letters from me every day about how much I hate them changing my pirate on me. But, for mow, just gotta wait and see.

I wish they would just go ahead and add the new updates to the live game now... =/

[William ORoberts]

The only bug that I have found on Test so far, is that on cutlass, instead of being able to press "1" to use sweep, I have to click on the skill to use it. Same with pistol, I have to click on the ammo to load a different kind instead of being able to press the number. I have not reported it because I wasn't sure if it was part of the update or not. Anybody else having this problem?

Edit: I figured out later that num lock was off and that's why it wasn't working lol.

Sorry!

Sweet, thanks. Hope this means we'll have something new to buy soon.

Maybe one of those huge Goliath/Ship Of The Line type ships ( Not sure WHAT to call them with Frigate/Galleon/Sloop taken - let's call it a Mega-Gondola ).

Well, seeing as the weapons are so expensive - the staff costs 10,000+, and that can burn a hole in your budget - so it would make sense if the highest amount of gold WAS 200,000.

umm Kat the change is worse then what Melody looks like. Imagine lets say tk, the short one, imagine her with 3 times the rear and half of what she had on the other, it's not right I would never have made her look like that

[The Skirata Clan]

Can someone clarify the whole body issue please. From what I understand is that the current body types will be changed on All pirates , not just the newly created. I don't want my pirates to change from buff to fluff.
