I thought Fishing was working pretty good except for the PDF ground thing.

What is "Welcome Worlds"?

***Sven Osymthe*** · #5 08-20-2010, 09:36 PM

The server you are on once you exit the tutorial, after making a pirate. I could be wrong though.

***The Skirata Clan*** · #6 08-20-2010, 09:38 PM

That makes sense. I think.

James Bladefury · #7 08-20-2010, 09:58 PM

Yes, when you first make your pirate and enter the tutorial, you enter Welcome World7 or Welcome World2 or any welcome world.

Seriously, fishing has been on test for 2 weeks, more than anything else ive ever seen in the game... more than even the inventory expantion... HOW MANY BUGS CAN SOME FISH AND A FEW KNIVES HAVE?!

Ok now im hoping for them to come out next week....

Maybe it might come out this month cant wait to go fishing!

If we get lucky, fishing will be released by tonight, but that seems very unlikely for tonight. Odds are, it will be released next week; ironically when most people should be getting back to school.

Fishing is a pretty big update, to me. It was in Toontown, and remains one of the most time consuming things to do in toontown. It's not as time consuming as in pirates, but it's still big.

And this is irrelevant, but with the way things seem to be going, the new shrouded island and a quest with it doesn't seem like it's coming as soon as most would like it to. We might not see it on open until October 31, the 3rd year of POTCO.

I'm starting to get irratated with this... You can always fix minor bugs later D, just hurry up and release it!

No, they need to be fixed BEFORE they go Live. There are people that play the game just to find exploits in bugs and take advantage of them. All of these need to be fixed on Test.

Looking good so far, most everything has been fixed, I'm not noticing any problems anymore. Very rarely is Live updated on the weekends but you never know...

I still think they will update it next week after the strongest guild competition is over

I don't remember a time when POTCO ever had an update on Saturday or Sunday, so unfortunately we probably won't see the update until Monday or Tuesday.
