[CapEldano2]

Will we get our credits back when we dc in the middle of a game?

I am mad. I played and it said the owner left so everyone had to leave. I lost my credits and I am really mad. I and I just got dc.

Bad design of the game.
So why do we have to pay credits to play the games? So, are they now going to make up pay for credits?

There are still LOTS of bugs. I have only played one game that actually worked the rest I have either just got dropped back into the loby got booted all together saying that the owner left the room and then all the ships dissapeared and wouldnt let us finish.
It looks really cool and the game plays MUCH faster than the original
so I hope they get all the bugs fixed.

So you lost all the credits you paid in?

This is absolutely rediculous. We already have to pay out enough credits to buy stuff. So now they are making us pay out credits to win credits.

I am very mad with this new game, my team destroyed the other team and they won!

The graphics are awesome, but I miss the old game.

It depends what game it is that you are playing they each have different rules. Like in captrue the flag if the other team has their flag and you destroy them and the rest of their team before the flag makes it back to their port they do win. That is how the game goes in capture the flag. I have had not problems except nobody to play with on level 2 lol

Okay, so I'm fine with the inventory changes.....But not the pirates game changes! First of all you have to start All Over again, and second....it's much harder. And a big sea monster thing comes out of the water!! . And it's confusing, such as the scoring. My mom, she played and won -- she got 14 credits! You also have to pay 21 credits to actually play pirates. I hope this isn't like this for all of the games

Oooops mods can you please add this to the new pirates game thread please, ty .

In some circles, this is known as gambling. Fortunately, most of us dis people are squares.

Said with a poker face,

Not doing very well with change here LOL...It took me sooo long to finally play pirates and pass level 3, and now I have to begin all over again with new freaky stuff lol. I played one game, won, and got a total of 14 credits...HUH? Did I just LOSE credits playing this 1 game? Why would I want to play again??

How are people winning over 100 credits?

I haven't had a chance to look, but are they charging to play ALL the games now??

If you play Capture the flag be the ship to the right because it has power . I used it on my mule and got over 700 credits in five games. I am going to play it on my main now.Just destroy the sips also because it is easier to do that when they are going for your flag.

Actually everyone I think now has to start back at level 1. I was up to level 3 before they all made the changes and my mom was too. So my mom got on VMK just a couple minutes ago -- she played a game and then after it said, ' Good! Now you have 9 more games to play to get on level 2! ' And my mom only got 14 credits! I cant believe we also have to pay to play a game! It's like your not earning anymore credits. If you pay the credits, and my mom only got 14....that means she lost alot of credits. I hate the way you have to pay now! But I think the sea monster that comes up and grabs you is a little challenging.....((My mom didnt notice that but I did....her other pirate ship got hit by the sea monster)) HeHe

Pay to PLAY OH GREAT!!!!!

I play the first game and our team lost got 20 credits lost one not that bad.


Second time I tried to play the BIG DC so I lost them all!!!!!


NOT FAIR!!!

I think I found one of the bugs in the game. If you play against computer boats in ship battle, the other boat gets ALL the points even when you hit them! I played with a friend against two computer boats and every time we hit them, they got more points, we never got more than 7 each which is what we started with. If you win two out of three in the game you get a bonus of 100 plus whatever gold (points) you looted from shooting other boats, but we didn't win and I ended up getting 7 credits for playing, even though I had to pay 21 to get in the game.. That is just wrong, I'm sorry to complain already, but you should at the minimum get your credits back for playing, better yet, why even pay to play? What is the purpose of that?
What is the thinking here? (or should I say lack thereof)

Awwww!! I wish the old game was back. I mean the Game only....the scenery and such isn't half bad though :

Do you think that maybe the pay to play thing is a strategy to mitigate the crush of people trying to play the new game? If the games started at 12 credits and it was swamped with players then maybe the move to 21 credits was to curb demand. Following that logic the game could get more expensive if the server load remains too high and the price could go away completely in a week or two when the newness wears off.

It's just a thought. I can't think of any other reason to charge credits to play the game.

 

[JeanJoe]

They are making us pay to play now? That is just silly.

Unless it's to provide a (small) disincentive for people who intentionally quit out of games. How many games of ghost have you played with strangers, where the other side left?

Can't make the penalty TOO big, though, because people do D/C unintentionally.

 

[CapEldano2]

anyone elso notice that one of the ships is called the wicked winch? rofl it's supposed to be wench like on the ride

 

[mouseman68]

I love the fact that there is a new game to play, but I am really sad to see the other one go. Did they have to get rid of the old one to put the new one in its place? Couldn't of they just added to the fun?

Oh well, can not wait to try it out when I get home.

Thank you for the pics and the heads up.
