They should let all of the site members here into the beta.

Why would they? This site isn't owned by disney, they don't all the members and they don't need to do that.

A BBC News article that came out today says that PotCO will be released "at the end of June".

Here's the quote:

The cinema blockbuster Pirates of the Caribbean is a typical example.

It started life as a theme park ride in Disneyland, was then turned into a movie, which was accompanied by a deluge of merchandise - from books to action figures.

Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean video game has shot to number one on every platform in the UK, France and Germany.

And at the end of June, Disney will launch a massive multiplayer online role-playing game based on the franchise.

Later in the article it talks about pricing:

And the Pirates of the Caribbean online game lures in players by making a few levels accessible for free. Those who want to swashbuckle through more of the virtual world, will need to pay a $10 monthly subscription.

since testing this game since it went live for beta, i have to say that over the last 3 days i have been very happy with what i am seeing finally. I noticed first off that they turned off al the other testing intances and there is now ust one server for us.. and even last night with 213 players on at once the lag was alright.. I have noticed that the binding boxes on the scenery are getting better too I have not "fallen through" the ground this week.. and I also noticed that the dead space between scene loading is much improved.. maybe the Devs are working over time. to get this out.. It would be cool.. I also did notice a new button in DXD that doesnt work yet but it says Subscribe to prirates or something like that.. Has anyone spoken to a DEv in game lately? I am curoius to see what level they will cut out the free players. I am thinking level 3 since at level 4 it gets more interesting.. and Disney cant let people have real fun for free or the game will run like **** without hundreds of us paying to keep it going lol..ok talk to u all later

1. If they say june, with the games curent track record, they probably mean june 2008.

2. NOOOOOOO!!!!! If the game has a fee that can not be payed by phone, I am SCREWED! I thought disney said the game would be free! This is terrible!

snowegoof · #39 06-14-2007, 02:08 AM

With all the glitches they are definitely going to have to push it back.

wildtaz999 · #40 06-14-2007, 01:15 PM

FREE???? how do u possibly think that a multi million dollar mmo that over 200,000 adults over the age of 20 are expected to play will be suppoted if its free?? I would hate to see how slow CSR responses in WOW would be if we wernt paying 20 bucks a month to play.. that would suck lol... Dont worry I am sure that the day the game goes live everyone one world wide will be runnign to thier parents and getting thier Credit card numbers to add to thier DXD accounts lol..

Why, and how, do you think this game woudl be free forever??? I hear toontown did that, but I think POCO will be much, much, more popular than ToonTown. I don't like ToonTown to start with lol.

Ad.NoringTon- how do you think this big, big game would be free for everybody? They are spending A LOT of money on this, they wouldn't make a profit lol. But yes there is FREE VERSION, but, you don't get as much lol.

no,no,no, that is way off, I mean, first they wouldn't say "spring 2007" and then make it in June 2008! that would lose a lot of people, and think about it, how good it is right now! pretty good i would say. So it could still come out this month!

I wouldn't say "good", but I wouldn't say bad lol. It still has lag that needs to be fixed and some quests that they give you.

Ex: Divers Quest, and Tattoo Quest

But it is better than when it first started lol.
