If some of you remember, the old Port Royal had Cadets patrolling through the town. I miss that, and I wonder why they don't have them patrolling anymore. I really loved the old Port Royal and especially Padres. The old Tortuga was alright. The one part about it I really liked was the area in the back with Hendry Cutts where it was all lush and away from the actual town. Again, I really miss cliff diving at Padres. I suppose Raven's Cove has cliffs to dive from, but still.

Sorry haha, just felt like sharing some memories of the old islands. I wish that they would put them back as some new islands. The models would work pretty well for a new island.

I went to King's Head and seeing all the soldiers there had green and yellow levels over them and thinking "Gee, I remember when all these guys were way too advanced for me" XD
I didn't join the game until 2010. I didn't know there was an old Tortuga and Port Royal. What were they like before?

I think they said they took away the islands because of computers that are less powerful. But hey that is on the players end not the game!

I don't think that that is the true reason. If I remember correctly, their reason for changing Port Royal was because: The hill to get to Fort Charles was inconvenient (but now you have to go through the door and up the path and up the stairs. Takes even longer to get into the actual fort now...), they wanted a more realistic layout, and some other reasons. I suppose they changed the other islands simply because if they change one, might as well change the rest. I actually don't object to them changing the old islands. At the time, it seemed like a swell idea. Change is good. Although now that time has passed, I do miss the islands. I don't think it was a bad idea for them to be changed though. As said before, it would be nice if they put in new islands with the same template. The old islands were completely different from the new ones. The only thing that is similar is the architecture of the buildings.

I just think that the navy and EITC should have patrols through out there islands, to enforce their power.

This kinda fits with the Patrol thing. Oh and I've noticed that invasions are pointless. why would Jolly destroy one building/set of walls when he could burn the whole island and take it over? i think he should burn the town and set patrols through out the island.

i miss the old islands too, im glad they at least brought back the music from them a while back, but they should at least have a server or two that ppl can go to the old islands on. I also really miss the coin flip emote!!!!! :/ Sometimes newer isnt always better.

I miss all of the 2007 stuff. Just brings back really good memories. Not only of just the game, but actual things that happened in that time. Just feels good.

Do you guys remember when navy cadets use to roam the streets of (Old) Port Royal? I wish they would add back the old islands again. Or atleast add some navy patrolling the streets. It wont add too much lag.

I remember all the old islands and the stress of trying to sail to Padres in my little light sloop and not get sunk in one shot
