OK, I know this doesn't really belong here... but hey, I don't know where else to post, and my fellow DIS'ers always have the answers ;)

I am online in the Pirates game right now. Currently level three. I want to change my clothes (heh)... Nobody will talk to me in game and tell me how.

I'm currently standing in Tortuga asking everyone around me how do i change my clothes. They are all running around on missions and fighting with their swords. All I want is for someone to answer how I can change my stinking clothes!! Nobody is listening to me in the game... :rolleyes:

So..... anyone here play Pirates and can help me please? This is important!! LOL!! :rotfl2:

Seriously though... I need to know...

Did you buy a membership?

DD said she doesn't think you can until you pay, but that's info from one 12 y.o., so maybe not...

LOL Pink! I serioulsy was cracking up at that part! :lmao: :rotfl:

On a serious note. I don't play POTCO, so I can't help you with the wardrobe part.

Good Luck. :)

I do have to ask though ... How do you like the online Pirates game? Does it compare at all to VMK, or not really? Thanks!

Yes - you can't change clothes until you pay to answer your question. I'm currently a Level 8 with basic access at the moment. By the way if you don't have a guild we have a DIS Guild! http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1762212

Well..... since people don't seem to talk to me, I can honestly say NO I don't like this game so far!! For crying out loud... the chat log looks like this...

PinkGirlygirl: Hey, can someone help me?
Pinkgirlygirl: I'm trying to change my clothes
PinkGirlygirl: Can someone tell me how?
PinkGirlygirl: Anyone?
PinkGirlygirl: Please?

ARG!

I was just telling Aengus, the ONLY interraction I have had so far with another player is this guy that came up to me when I was pleading for help and tried to stab me with his sword. When that didn't work, he pulled out his gun and proceeded to shoot me. Fortunately, you must not be able to kill other players! :)

But wow, give me a break!! I just want to change my clothes!!!!!!!

Wow! Sounds like some players in the game are more concerned with trying to kill other players with weapons, than be helpful in any way.

And yes, you did have me laughing again with the guy trying various weapons on you with no end result. I can only imagine what you were thinking ~ like seriously, all I want is to change my clothes!

It could have been my four year old that stabbed you. We checked it out together and he kept running around attacking other players with his sword. I told him to stop, but he wouldn't listen. rotfl.

I ended up starting the game all over again so I could choose the clothes I wanted... I didn't do that the first time around because.... well.... I've been spoiled on VMK being able to change my clothes countless times in one day :rolleyes1

Hope I really like this outfit, LOL, because if I change my mind again... say tomorrow... I'll be back to creating a new character and starting over AGAIN.

Yeah, I've been playing for a year now and still am a level two pirate... why is that, Pink? because I keep wanting to change my outfit... :rotfl2:

What is your Pirate name?? I have been playing for several months I have a level 39, level 17 and level 16 pirate lol. My main is SneekyTiki same as VMK. I am first officer of a wonderful guild, if you need help I can invite you into our guild...just let me know :) Oh and we are by far the best dressed guild on POTC since we have our very own fashion consultant!!

Poor Pink:hug: I have been on that game since before beta (Pre-Regastered) shooting ships blowing holes in them and they would not sink.But still I like VMK better.

04-09-2008, 08:25 PM
aye picking clothes is not easy! I personally dont like to change clothes since stinky pirates only lets you have 3 items at a time in your inventory. Ex- 3 shirts 3 skirts etc.

Here is a pic of the outfit I wear most taken on the first day we could change clothes

04-09-2008, 08:28 PM
LOL nice pic curlee. I actually change clothes A LOT, but it does cost you sometimes selling and buying because of that item limit. I have bought and sold back many clothing items. I just like too many different outfits.

-Stacey

ETA: If you're squared away Pink I'm gonna be AFK for a little bit. If anyone needs help I plan to be on pirates later, unless of course my husband gets there first.

Well... I'm not sure if this is the game for me.

My mission is to sink a Navy ship. I figured I'd be able to do that no problem... I have now sunk twice and landed in jail both times. I've paid to get my ship repaired twice. I'm now down to 33 gold. So what happens when I run out of gold and can't get my ship repaired anymore? Man, I can't even get one hit on a Navy ship. Any tips? I'm afraid to try again because I don't want to run out of gold and have to go back and start all over again.... This is getting VERY frustrating.

If I don't have a ship anymore, can I use someone else's ship to try and pass this quest?

If you need some gold try killing a low leveled navy guard for a few pieces of gold. :)

I would offer to help you tonight but unfortunatly im about to run out for a bit. If you need any help in the future feel free to pm me!

I play too (as does my DH). I'm at level 35, and a Founder (signed up early).

The clothes situation stinks. It seems like they designed the feature after the game was finished. It's bad enough you can only have 4 of each item (i.e. vest, shirt, pants, etc., and I believe most women like to have more than 4 items to choose from lol!) in your inventory at one time, but if you want to change you have to go to the clothes store to do it. It is so inconvenient.

Yoho, yoho!

I signed out - thanks for the help though. I was just getting too frustrated with it. I just don't know how to shoot those ships without them getting me first.

Going back to my "fun pirates" on VMK. What in the world am I going to do without this game? :sad1:

Aw bummer I was gonna sail you. I personally hate to sail but once you see it done well by others it gets a bit easier. I'm not saying watching me will help, however I have learned some from others, and you will too. Let me know if you come back. I could use the sailing practice LOL!

btw: I was never good at VMK pirates game haha!

Well, I think I have the sailing part down... I just cilck an arrow key and off I go. It's the shooting part that I'm not getting. I don't even realize there's an enemy ship nearby until boom, I've been hit... :rotfl:

cowboys_girl
04-09-2008, 09:30 PM
Let me vouch for Shadow, she is an awesome captain, and great fun to sail with. Without he skills I would not have gotten through the Boss Battle LOL! If she wants to sail you I'd be more than happy on cannon, that's my forte on the ship.

-Stacey

If that is the case pink there could be many problems, maybe you don't have your compass zoomed out all the way. You can hold down the right mose button and change your point of view while sailing. Also use your roller on your mouse to scroll out so you can see more while sailing. Etc etc..

HappyGoLucky
04-09-2008, 09:30 PM
To shoot the ships on your own, sneak up on them from behind, then sail just to the left (or right), put your sails down, shoot, then drop back, then sail to the opposite side, and shoot again, and drop back. Repeat until they sink or you sink lol. You have go from side to side because your broadside cannons have a recharge period (they are your number 1 and 2 keys on the keyboard, which you have to put a skill point on to activate).

Hope that helps, it is fun. But when you are a low level, it is so much easier if you have a higher level partner.

Advice, when you get skill points don't apply them right away. Save them until you understand what you're doing better.

Good luck!

Pink, if you use the right mouse button and move your mouse while sailing you can see everything around you.



I've been playing Pirates since the beta testing, so feel free to send a pm to ask for help. :)

Sorry guys, this is all way over my head. I'm really not following what any of you are saying.

cowboys_girl
04-09-2008, 10:31 PM
Thanks for the offer Shadow, I may take you up on that when I move over to the new Guild.

Pink, if you give it up no harm done. However I will tell you that before POTCO all I ever played was VMK and Sims 2. I used to think role playing games were dumb and there is a lot of talk on POTCO forums that I do not understand. I can tell you that it is much easier and a vastly different experience playing with a group. My husband says he will be the highest level pirate that has no idea what he's doing, because he is not a gamer either but he has fun playing with the guild members. Anyway, i would advise you to give it a go with a group before quitting altogether. Shadow and I are in a guild together and everyone is more than happy to help without you actually joining the guild if that is what you would prefer.

Anyway just my 2 cents.

OMG Pink! THANK YOU!!!

The last 3 pages had to be THE funniest thing I have seen, heard, or read in easily the last week! I have realized that I am very down and sad about VMK closing and have not had something hit the funny spot in too many days.

I truly laughed until tears flowed from my eyes while reading this. I have faith that you will find a way to wear cute (pink?) pirate clothes, even if you have to start a new character - over and over and over and over and over.

Thanks again for the amazing laughter! :rotfl: Truly...tears.

You will find my picture there along with my guild mates. Oh and we leave roses and chocolates on the pillows. We call it the Janet Cabinshot Inn and spend a lot of time there lol. As a matter of fact I just signed off from jail lol

Just hope you're all laughing WITH me and not AT me ;)

Think I'm going to leave Pink in jail for a while longer until I can collect my wits again before trying out my poor ship again. So not looking foward to sinking!

And it doesn't get any better knowing my next mission is to kill FOUR Navy soldiers! Wouldn't be so bad if they didn't slash back!

I've never responded to anything you've said before! LOL. Aside from VMk and Webkinz I'm not a online gamer either. I think I tried it when it first came out and I'm like a level three. I also can shoot a thing :confused3 I've been debating about trying again and though that these people had some tips. Now I'm really confused :rotfl: But I can say that my character looks really good :lmao:

For anyone who plays and missed it, Sat and Sun 12-3 PACIFIC time double rep points. Saturday is double for everyone and Sunday is double for Unlimited access only. So I guess if you were gonna give it a go as a basic member Saturday is the day to do it.

Double reps means double reputation points...It will help you level up your pirate faster... for example, if you kill an enemy or sink a ship you might get 20 rep points, but this weekend you'd get 40 instead. The higher rep points you have, the stronger your pirate and the higher your health/voodoo power.

I'll most likely be on this weekend, so if anyone needs any help just send me a PM. I'm a level 38 and have a war frigate, so I can help you sink those ships. :thumbsup2

I'm still Level 3 (went back to jail FIVE times yesterday) and don't see myself moving up to 4 anytime soon. And if going from level 4 to level 5 means killing or sinking anything else.... I'm not sure I'm going to make it princess:

Poor Pink!

These frustrations of trying to do stuff is one of the main reasons why I gave up on POTCO during beta testing.
That and my computer is just too slow for it.

These kinds of games are not my forte. I want a game where I don't have to compete constantly and have no tasks that I have to do.

The game is actually running much better than it did in beta. I also gave it up during beta because the quality was poor and it froze my computer constantly. The released version is going better.

Not all tasks involve killing or sinking. Some are just going to visit, talking, etc. You can also play blackjack or texas hold 'um to get more gold.

Yeah Pink, Iris too, let us know where to find you. I have no problem letting my pirate get beat up while you gals get a few licks in to complete your tasks. Just know you only have your target one time for it to count, someone else could do all the work, take all the heat as long as you get one hit in. Also the bad guys only attack whoever hits them first unless that person dies.

CT, I was never around for beta, tried to sign up and never got the invite. So I can't compare then and now. What I can tell you is you don't have to do anything, however you'll want to work on the quest here and there for the points. Just last night I met a new player and we talked for a really long time all the while he helped me work on one of my weapons. There's plenty of opportunity to be social if you want it, and everyone is free to quest at their own pace.

-Stacey

ETA: If you didn't notice there is a long long list of different "oceans" which are the different servers. You need to include what ocean you are on in telling your location or we'll never find you guys. The ocean name is at the top of your map in your chest.

Hmm.... I'm not getting ANYONE in the game to talk with me yet. Maybe I need to change clothes again? :rotfl2:

I spent a great deal of time yesterday in the Den of Thieves trying to talk with a stranger.... he kept running away from me to kill soldiers.... At least he kept finding his way back to me, but I couldn't coax one word from him even though I talked his ear off... :rolleyes:

Ok ok, since I was able to defeat the guards, I will go first.

Ok, I am curious, can you change which server you are on?

By the way all, I am "Cruise" on pirates. I thought that would just be easier since everybody calls me cruise anyway in vmk.

Oh, and I already forgot how to get to theives den, LOL.

I'm getting on right now too. You can change oceans by going to your map and clicking on the white thing under your ocean name. Then the list will come up of all the oceans. Just click on the one you want and you'll go there. I anciently just went to Abassa server LOL, I'll go wherever you guys are. I'm Samantha Redsteel right now.

As regards talking to people in Pirates (strangers)

LOTS of players there are young teens - I have had several ask "Are you 15 yet?" OR, "Are you over 13?" And sometimes their typing skills are not super. So they may appear to be ignoring you - and MORE IMPORTANTLY, lots of players in the teen age range do not read the dialogue box! They focus on the fighting and "doing" aspects. This is especially true when they are on your ship and randomly shooting stuff, thus getting you sunk because they dont see you say, "HOLD YOUR FIRE" even if you shout. LOL

One good way to meet new peeps is hang around the docks on Padres de Fuego or Cuba and say, "Do you need a gunner?" to anyone like level 20 or above. Often these players like to help newer players.

Then when you are on their ship, ASK what they are trying to sink and ASK for instructions before shooting at stuff. Remember, they have to pay BIG BUCKS if you start shooting some high level ship that sinks them.

After you meet up with some dis players, try to join their guild - then you can see if they are online in your guild list.

the end:thumbsup2

No problem, we wondered what happened. We are all on friends now, so if you ever need help just click the name of the person who is online and whisper and they will get the message no matter what ocean, island, etc.. Just make sure your chat box is closed when you click whisper, that will open it.

Actually, bad news Pink, you can't heal yourself with the doll, until you get it to level 20 then you kind of can. You can buy tonics from the gypsy's though and drink those to stay alive. Other bad news, no doll for unpaid basic access.

In all honesty whether you stay with it or not, I personally found the discounted $4.95 or whatever they offer the first month for is worth it too really get a feel. You may want to wait for that until after May 21 so you get the most from it and the most from the time left on VMK.

Didn't Yavn promise us some 14-day game passes before VMK closed? I vaguely remember it sounding that was going to be some kind of in game reward like a host prize.

HappyGoLucky
04-11-2008, 03:14 PM
I believe that already happened. It was during Pirate Month, and you had to win best Pirate room. I think there were only four (one per week). So as part of that winning package, you got the 14 day free unlimited access trial.

Iris
04-11-2008, 04:51 PM
I am content to play the basic game until after vmk closes. At that point I may sign up for the unlimited with the discount to see if this is for me. I do enjoy so far, only problem is that my work computer does not handle this game well and it is far too dark for me to see what I am doing. I have changed the brightness to the max allowed on this laptop, but it is still way darker that I care for.

My home computer plays it rather fast but I am not usually on my computer when I am home. I guess I will have to wait and see.

I was able to draw a small crowd and coax them into dancing with me! Woot!

Sadly this will neve be the same as VMK but at least it will be just a little more bearable when the end does come. (I am still hoping it won't end). Pirates is a fun game but I really prefer being able to create rooms, hang out with friends and walk down the middle of main street usa.

For crying out loud!!

So.... what's the best way to get an additional 300 pieces of gold?? I'm currently in the Tortuga graveyard killing those zombie people, but they only give me 1-3 gold with each kill. Makes for a very looooooooooooooooooooooong day :eek:

Arrrrr... I just want new hair! :pirate:

To get more gold, you need to kill higher level enemies, or like Tiki said, go sailing. I also have a war galleon and war frigate and have my treasure detector skill maxed, so anytime you want to go sailing just let me know.

Also, I have maximum gold and can lose some hands of poker to you :thumbsup2

Wow, not only do I stink at shooting ships, I stink at steering too! Who knew :confused3 I thought it was a matter of just pressing the up arrow key and going full speed ahead :)

My 10 yo has been bugging me to take him out sailing so he can pass his next quest of sinking a ship/getting a flag. So I agreed to take him out this afternoon - I would steer and he would operate the cannon since he's watched me shoot before :lmao:

Before long we were yelling at each other back and forth between rooms...

Son: Mom, turn around, I only need one more hit on that ship!
Pink: Uh.. turn around? Ok, I'll try...
Son: No! Wrong direction! You have to turn around!!
Pink: I'm turning! But I can't see the ship anywhere!
Son: You're going away from him!
Pink: He's not there!! All I see is water!
Son: Just turn around! His health was low! MOM!!
Pink: Forget it! I'm going to find another ship...

Rinse and repeat...

10 minutes later...

I was able to sail with Matty yesterday to "help" :laughing: him pass his quest. Think when I left him, he needed to get some crab claws and scorpion blood, but I had totally forgotten where you find those things...

There may be other places to find them but you and I got them on Anvil Island.

OK, I have a really strange question. Is there some sort of invisibility bug on POTCO?

Last night I was on with KrazyPete, and he claims he couldn't see Pink even though I was standing in front of him. He kept teleporting to me and landing right back in the same spot (since I hadn't moved). I kept trying to tell him in game that I was standing right in front of him, but he said he couldn't find me (and then he'd teleport again...sigh)

Matty_D joined us and lo and behold he couldn't see me either! Now I could see both of them clear as day, but they both claimed they couldn't see me at all even though I was moving around them, standing right in front of their faces. I even went off and killed a guard just to make sure I was *really* there and not a "ghost."

I mean, come on.... how can you miss Pink? :confused3

At first, I thought they were joking around, but they kept up with it for so long that now I believe them that they couldn't see me. I ended up signing out.

Has anyone heard of this happening before?

Pink,

This happened with HappyGoLucky and myself yesterday morning. We were both on Rumrunner's Island I think. I had teleported to her and I think at the same time she teleported to me. I could see her just fine but she kept whispering to me "where are you". I told her I was right in front of her and yet should could not see me at all. She ended up changing servers and then i followed her over there. We could then see each other just fine. I think it is some sort of bug that pops up once in a while.

By the way, sorry i left the boat, I lost internet connection and got kicked out of course.

Yes, there is an invisibility bug. I don't know why (or where) it happened in your case, but there are various glitches around PotCO that can cause it. You can actually make it happen in certain places/circumstances.

I've done it myself, as have a couple of my friends. Interestingly, none of us took damage while invisible, yet we were still able to wreak havoc on the nasties and earn rep. We could not, however, tp when in the invisibility glitch (we got messages saying "You cannot teleport from jail"). Also, my health bar was locked down in Groggy mode, even though the bar itself was completely green. And I didn't get the golden glow when I leveled up my weapon, either. I needed to log off and back on to return to my normal state.

It was fun to play around with, but I've only done it once. Since it was obviously a glitch, I was a little concerned that it might have some unwanted effects on my pirate. And even though it didn't, I'm not quite comfortable enough to do it again.

the good thing about this bug is that the enemies can't see you either. It can be a great way to level your weapons.

Like what the others have said, there are a few invisibility glitches.. you can usually use them to your advantage, as most of the time enemies cannot inflict damage on you while you're invisible but you can kill them.

The best glitch is on Outcast.. there are 2 stumps in the grassy area that are level 30+ .. you need to go there with at least 1 other person... one of you will become glitched and the other won't. It's a great way to level fast.

As far as Im aware there is no way around this currently. I have some friends in the UK and Germany who cannot play because they are not from the US. It stinks because they let them play beta then the go on to say they cant play anymore. I hope you find a way around it though!

ARG!

I was just telling Aengus, the ONLY interraction I have had so far with another player is this guy that came up to me when I was pleading for help and tried to stab me with his sword. When that didn't work, he pulled out his gun and proceeded to shoot me. Fortunately, you must not be able to kill other players! :)

HappyGoLucky
04-19-2008, 01:50 PM
If you need Dire Wasps, the easiest place to get one is in Port Royal. Go to the Graveyard, there are torches nearby near the stream that leads to King's Run. Once inside King's Run, keep right until you find a dire wasp (you have to go past some big tree roots, and some rocks on the right not too far in). You'll need to defeat the wasp, and let it respawn however many times you need to complete your task.

You can also find Dire Wasps on Rumrunner's Island, but you'll find Scorpions, Crabs, and other stuff there.

There are also Dire Wasps and Terror Wasps on Isla Perdida, but you'll probably want to avoid that island for now.

Good luck, and happy pirating lol!

ShadowKittyKat
04-19-2008, 01:59 PM
Actually Isla Perdida is an easy place to get the wasps. As long as you can maneuver your pirate around avoiding clumps of wasps and terror wasps, there are plenty of places to get wasps alone easily.

You might need to download an update for your video card driver... the piratesonline.com website has a list of all the driver updates available.. there are even instructions that will tell you how to find out which video card you have and if it needs to be updated.

Car, you might want to also check your memory while you are at it. While the minimum requirement is only 512 mb, I find it works much better at 1 gb. We have three players in our house and the computer that is at 512 plays the game rather choppy with a lot of stalls and freeze moments.

Does that mean I can literally ONLY have 3 pieces of clothing or does that mean I can have 3 shirts, 3 pants, 3 boots, 3 hats, and 3 coats? :teeth:

Oh, Pirates is going to be so much fun now! :dance3:

No more making a new character and starting all over just to get a new outfit! I can finally level up and catch up to Cruise.he!! :dance3:

Matty's Angels (sigh.. just had to throw that in there... it's cute, but Petez will never go for it...)

I told you that I can go along with any name that has "bloodthirsty" in it. Make it "Matty's Bloodthirsty Angels" and I'm in! :thumbsup2

"Too Bloodthirsty for Pink Lace Under.Roos"... See how well that works?

Hey, what happened to "Cute or Booty?" I liked that one.

Or

VMKCuteorBootSurvivor? or CheapGoldUser?

Just an FYI:

The following names were discussed in great length yesterday - Matty_D and his Angels, Matty_D and the Sirens of the Sea, More Matty_D, Matty_D and His Girls Gone Wild (do we see a pattern here?):rotfl2:

I do like "CuteorBooty" or "TooHotForMyPinkLaceUnderoos" as well. Hey, as long as I can be an officer I will go along with any name.

OK, now this was weird. I had just exited the Governer's Mansion and was standing on the front steps with another girl when the screen started shaking. Suddenly, I found myself falling down into the garden in front of the Mansion which was surrounded by a stone wall so I was stuck in there!

I swear.... that girl pushed me!!

Is Lily playing? :confused3

OK, Pink and KrazyPete are now playing with unlimited access! W00t! (TY Petez!)

We need to pick a guild name now and get moving on that...:goodvibes So far, the ones I like that we've discussed are.......

DRUM ROLL

VMK Survivors (or Refugees)

Pretty Pretty Princess Pirates (this is my favorite, I think...) princess:

Matty's Angels (sigh.. just had to throw that in there... it's cute, but Petez will never go for it...)

Too Lava for My Pink Lace Under.Roos :lmao:

That last one makes me giggle hysterically to think of big burly Matty_D and KrazyPete walking around the pirate game with THAT under their names for everyone in game to see! :lmao: :rotfl2: :lmao: I'm tempted to go with it just for the laugh factor alone :teeth:

Did I miss any other favorites? I know we discussed a ton yesterday in VMK - so funny!!! Any other suggestions??

Aren't you going to join Dude's guild? :sad:

Aren't you going to join Dude's guild? :sad:

I'm starting all over again on a paid account and this is the hmmm... fourth time I'll be levelling up through about 7. So far I've been able to do it each with time with the help of just a couple of good friends. For now that's how I want to play.

I'm sure it will come to a point where I might need join up with another group for help getting past bigger tasks. All this guild talk is mostly for kicks so don't take it personally.

I mean, Matty_D'sPrettyPinkPrincessBloodThirstyPirates? C'mon? Although, I just logged in to PotCO found out that someone made me a new pirate. His name is "Bloodthirsty Shark" and he's wearing a pink shirt. Maybe I'd better take these girls seriously when they say they want "Lacy Pink Underoos" for their guild name. :rolleyes1

Going to be even funnier to have "Too Lava for my Pink Lace Under.Roos" under a name like Bloodthirsty Shark! :lmao:

I've just had in mind that I wanted to form a very small, tight group of pirates rather than one very large group...

I'm not really sure at this point why a guild is necessary and what it's for... :confused3

Although........if you have a frigate or a galleon, I might jump ship ;)

I'm becoming a very desperate girl as my gold dwindles with all the stupid ship repairs I keep making :rotfl2:

I don't like being poor! :sad:

And I really really don't like sailing... or shooting (or trying to shoot, i should say...)

ETA: That brings me to a question. If I sail with a crew, but I don't shoot anything... do I still take part in the plunderin'?

Meaning, can I just stand there looking pretty, but yet still get rich? :dance3:

Iris

If you are part of a crew, you will get an extra 10% rep points and you still share the plunder whether or not you hit anything.

Cough.....I have a Frigate...Cough....Don't know your new pirate....cough...you continue to hide from me.....cough...getting a complex now......

I don't know what's worse, having no quests or having 5 impossible ones to do at the same time... this is driving me nuts and it won't give me credit for anything. It took me 10 minutes to do one task to get something from a level 15+ EITC guy. :headache:

Sounds good, I'll post on this thread when we are hosting a plundering event! By the way, what ocean are you on now? I can add you to my friends list, so if we are out plundering, I can message you.

Nothing with Bloodthirsty in it, PLEASE!

I think Krazy should be Guild Master, the rest of us can be Officers. He'll also put together our own website for us to keep in touch.

I was..............on now actually. Was on earlier trying to get MattyD to sink a few ships for his vodoo doll. Pretty soon he will have a cute little doll to play with. I think he was going to name it Pink!
