I Had a Scrip(t) For This Test Realm Post

Ahoy, pirates! Test Realm came out several days ago, and I've been, well, testing it and figured I put my own two gold pieces in on the latest upcoming updates:

1- Shipyards- This is a really nice concept. All those ships that you no longer use and that you are keeping basically for show, can now actually be shown off at your houses. You can only put out 5 at a house, But hey if you're like me, you have plenty of houses to use.

2- Companion Placement- I'm on the fence about this one. You can place your companions in your houses, if you so choose. This would have been good before advanced companions, but now that all the comps can serve a purpose, I don't really see a need to take them off the current roster of shipmates, unless there is going to be some sort of crew capacity coming in the future. I have 3 pages of companions so this might actually be a good thing ;)

3-Ship Cabins- Your ships can FINALLY have a cabin. Frank, fire the confetti cannons and drop the balloons! Frank? Nevermind him. I have always wanted to go below deck. My only complaint is it's one cabin for all the boats, so different boat cabins will all be decorated the same. That said, however, the decorative items for the cabins are fantastic.

4- Black Market- This has the biggest controversial part of this TR. The Black Market has come into play and with it, its own currency known as scrips. Scrips can be found in various ways. Most notably, turret and boss ships, and the Smuggler's Arena, which can be bought in the crown shop and placed in your house. The problem with Scrips has been the obtainability compared to the prices of the items in the market. I think the concept is interesting, but it needs to be tweaked.

Conclusion: I think this TR has some interesting concepts and with some ironing out and tweaking, these updates can lead to some new gameplay twists and I'm looking forward to seeing how they are implemented further into the game.

Captain Logan starts with his first post!

Ahoy! Of course most of ye know me, And some not! My name is Logan, A Great Dashing Swashbuckler Questing in Mooshu! Also working on some other pirates, I did really like the idea of being a blogger here on Pirates Unite, Not for fame, But just because i feel i wanted to share my great experience with you pirates out there, My Favorite companion? Of course with no argument, El Toro is the best! So here are 5 Top Things I love about Pirate101

1- Storyline
We all know that the storyline is amazing, Kinda I like that story of an orphan pirate who is just a prisoner for the Armada. Makes me feel it is a true story i made, And I'm living it!

2- Worlds of The Spiral
Some worlds made Pirate101 more Attractive and awesome, Lets be Honest, Marleybone, Home of dogs and Isle of Fetch, Nothing more great than that AMAZING World, Comes after it, Cool Ranch, I know it's horrible for some people, But i love that world because it shows how to be a Hero, Lets not also forget Mooshu! The world of Warriors, Beautiful, From Skyways to the lands there!

3- El Toro
No need to discuss that.... The Great Espirit De Corps Buff, His amazing Hits, he is EPIC!


4- Combat System
First of all, When Pirate101's Wesbite got launched only, I was wondering how the combat system looks like, Will it be hard and confusing? Or easier than i think? But actually when i saw it's a board combat system and simple to use, The game started to get more Exciting in my eyes!

5- Community and Friendships In-Game
Everyone there is so friendly and peaceful than i thought, Even in PvP, I can see the great Congrats and Great Match messages to the winners team from the team lost their PvP Match! Very Friendly!


My Next Projects and Events?
Well these are not announced yet, They're just surprises for now me and Captain Kyle only knows about it ;) But gladly you will love it!
