Does Disney put effort into the game?

[The Skirata Clan]

Agreed!

There is nothing that we (the players) can do or say that will change what Disney does with this. I just sit tight, keep my hands and feet inside the vehicle, take no flash photographies, and enjoy their ride.

Alright well the question of whether D can help them or not is finished.

Do you think they could do better with the resources they have?

[combatlizzy]

Personally, I have no complaints. Well, any major ones, anyways. Things like the LB being down & deletion of servers are a mite upsetting. But, for my money, I am very happy with POTCO. Never got into other Disney games, so I can't speak about them. It is difficult for me to fathom the huge task of maintaining POTCO, and to keep adding updates. Test was invented for a good reason. And when things do go awary, Disney tries its hardest to fix & make pirates happy. Can't make all the ppl happy all the time, but the Mouse attempts to satisfy. Where else can you enjoy entertainment for under 10 bucks a month to have the game at your beck & call 24/7? Maybe there are other games, but my money is on POTCO...

[The Stealthy Pirate]

I voted other because when you least expect it, an update comes out. So they come out with updates when the big D thinks it needs it. I mean look at last year:

~ Raven's Cove

~ Alot of weapons

Those are some pretty good updates. Sure they havent been up to scratch this year, with the resets and all...

[CaptainMonkeys]

I chose other because they are doing a fine job. And your choices don't match. Both are implying they are lazy/bad at their job. "Yes, they need to step it up" and "No, they are doing a bad job at [managing]* the game" are the same.

They have done fine, greatly. In the years i've played POTCO i have found both fun and enjoyment in the game, something you dont see in most MMO
But, they have had the test for almost a month, i just want it to go live that way i can do privaterring.
Sure they havent fully given us all the promised features they said they would YET, such as the kraken, new boats etc. But they work hard, you should be satisfied in in that instead of complaining. Please, Disney works hard. The only mistake i have EVER seen is when the closed Vmk...
Again, they have done a wonderful job.

If this was a real issue, then someone else would have told me. Sure, maybe i could have added more choices but then you couldn't have said so.


Anyways, i see what your guys are saying. maybe i was a but overreacting?

Depends how you view this.
Are they lazy?

Yes Because... for the company they are and for the business that Disney is they are lazy because they can do way better if more work was put to action with more technological resources they can get...

No they are not lazy because because POTCO staff might or is not provided with enough resources by Disney as a whole. POTCO is just a minor addition to Disney from a business point of view since they own TV channels and film production...

Players intend to blame Disney a lot because they see it as a gaming company. The POTCO staff is probably a small portion of Disney workers and they are doing the best they can with what they are provided. Disney could give more but since POTCO is not one of their main concerns they just can't spent money with it making it better.

[The Stealthy Pirate]

Its depending on how you see this:
This game has alot of stuff other games dont have.

A) The game is set in the 1600-1700's so theor choices are limited.
B) Come on you guys, as Davy said, this is one of the minor parts of Disney.
C) If you think about it, the Invasions are/were a great addition because it showed that the Big D is paying attention to the came.

[titanic95594]

Well Disney owns alot of these game like Club penguin, POTCO,etc. They don't entirely put there true heart in it because all the other game need tamed. But last I check they had a specific team for the game. They must be lazy then.

[Mr. Awesome]

THEY ARE DOING VERY WELL!!! I mean come on you cant update a game every week. And I hear when this game first started it was the bare minimum. (I read all the release notes) And I think they might add Blackbeard from the new movie instead of Davy Jones. That would make alot more sense.

[Witch Way]

no idea rly i dont ?_?

[The Stealthy Pirate]

It would make more sense to add Blackbeard instead of Davy because:

~Davy is dead! Not DF

~Blackbeard is in the new movie, gets hype for the new one, which is why I have been hearing is why POTCO came out in the first place.

I believe Del said: 'Overall, the game needs more of piratic feel, and less of a superman feel' Or something along those lines. Blackbeard is NOT a hero...

[Shalini_rose]

I can't get into mastering my pirate because I'm the kind of person who needs quests in order to stay interested. My level 36 pirate is done with Pearl and Raven's Cove, and now I feel like I have nothing for her to do. They need another BIG story quest that opens up after the completion of Raven's Cove or level 40 or something like that.

[Captain Hector]

I think they should ask us what we want next. like, 'would you want: 1), new ships, 2) the name of your ship(s) on the bow, or 3) sail designing. i would like that. and the choice with the most # of answers they work on and release first. other than that, its good.
