i am happy to have the game back and to see some old faces.
but the main point is we were lied to. we were supposed to be in age of reason update - we aren't
fixing the economy was supposedly one of the reasons for the wipe. yet here we are again with investment bonds and same type stuff in cash shop.
the only thing that really got changed was they let players plunder some items- improved hold got fixed and now you can deck your little hearts out. thats great
YOU COULD HAVE DONE ALL THIS WITHOUT A WIPE!!!
you only wanted to wipe for your own greed and to get as much cash from us as you could.

I also do have some mixed feelings still, but at the moment, it does seem to be very busy in ports, obviously we do not know how many new players, returning players difference from OGP servers. But I have a suspicion that all these players WERE actually here before the wipe at OGP it's just that we all sailing around EU now not going to far beyond at the moment.
The other flipside is are these returning players that have come back allegedly after item plunder and deck actually going to stay here, remember they already left the game because the game changed the rules YET many players stayed loyal to the game and carried on playing and spending.
To say battle players are the only ones that spend is a complete lie, Do you have official figures from Netmarble and OGP to suppoprt this? If so please share screenshot and document websites to support this claim.
I myself am not completely against pirates, it is part of the game, but Item plunder (Stealing someone elses hard work) Only leads to abuse, I say abuse because like in OGP times, there were players at war with each other and then become international targets with 1B posted rewards for people to target and sink certain players Then all their belongings (or what they use regular) lost in a 1 minute maybe longer battle depending if you can fight back or not.
The game works well in my opinion without plunder side of items, I think what should have been looked at is a rolling prizes for pirates with spoils or some form of raffle ticket with weekly prizes every time they win a fight. Before giving the ticket, the system should check IPs of players and maybe a history of IPs to check if it's abuse. Maybe even punch off a battle number so that if system says "No ticket for you" they can make ticket and submit the battle number to Papaya. obviously all this needs coded in and thats assuming it is even possible with the game being 13 years old and does not need
As I said all along I am not against pirates, as they are part of the game and have had some fun in trying to escape them in the past, but I just feel item plunder is the step to far.

Of course, if one is having trouble staying in the game (I, for one, keep getting "Uncharted Waters Online has stopped working" errors; and, yes, I did send a ticket to Support in regards to this), then all the tweaks and such are moot, anyway.
