The lastest captains tickets - opened 40 last night

WesDoobnerWesDoobner Posts: 761Member Intermediate
I opened 40 captains tickets last night so I thought there might be a bit of interest in what I got. For those of you who are looking for SPB's or temp tax licenses I have some really good news - there are plenty coming out. Here's the highlights of what I got, besides the shitload of TTL's and SPB's:

1 noc metal panel
3 delphin storm sails
1 Mod Cruise Galleon ticket
1 Augmented Expanded sailors cabin
3 craftsman sails
2 master royal staysails
1 CIGP


Not too bad, but it is very frustrating to have to open that many to get some good stuff among all the crap consumables.
May the winds blow you well

    Ive not really bought many tickets over the past few updates, but I’d say it was probably 60 tickets ago i last saw a ship.

    Hopefully it’s by the time the LLM comes out I’ll have some success

    My results were similar to yours Wes minus the ship.
    I second the LLM dream.
    Every ticket has had high end trade ships that are very fast, would be nice to see a fast pirate ship come out.

    I opened 50 tickets and got....

    1 Adv Beagle
    1 MCG
    1 DStorm
    1 DGaff
    1 AESC
    1 MR Staysail

    And the rest was utter crap that people struggle to sell in their bazaars.

    I wont be opening anymore. I could have doubled my ducats by selling the tickets outright. Lesson learned.

    I actually got a ship, my first from ticket. I've probably only bought about 50 tickets since relaunch, and I was happy to finally get a ship, not top shelf but a good aide ship...I bought about 8-10 tickets last night and got a Custom Dutch Indiaman. I also got a D-Storm sail among the other usual stuff.

    You guys are going to hate on me but I opened 15 tickets and got the following:

    2 x shadow armed sha cheun
    1 x ambush LR
    1 x cruise galleon
    1 x Dgagg
    1 x dstorm
    3 x armour forge tools
    4 x weapon forge tools
    Adventures amulet
    Rest crap!

    Considering I never opened a single capt ticket yet being a founder member I’d say I had horse shoes up my arse!

    Sold both shadow armed sha chuens for 4b each!

    Kept the ambush LR

    Yeah I pissed myself a little bit when I seen the results!

    Kinda regret selling both sha cheuns but I seen so many come up for sale and I wasn’t about to miss out on some solid profits!

    I couldn’t even play after, I was in udder shock.

    :D

    i have open over 100 tickets not 1 ship!!!!!!  thats a  zero drop rate bunch of rip off artist worst then OGP ever was. at least with them i got a mid level ship sometimes or a low level mat nc ship. and some nice loot with these AC's (a.k.a.) papaya the cheaters  i got 

    50 SPB
    1 Advanced ram
    5 books of the Unicorn
    2 Wingless dragon books
    2 Gargoyle figure heads
    2 Master royal sails 
     
    the rest was total crap most of it i threw out or dumped in bazaar for whatever i could get for it. I think after the last 30 i open and nothing worth anything in them. i'm done buying their rip off tickets.. and spending money on here..

    Damn donny that's ruff… 


    I agree they could put some crappy  nc mat ships.  Sheesh for 100 ticks if you sold straight for ducats you could have bought like 5 UWC Ships. It is a gamble that's the chance you take im sorry :/


    Papaya should bring back the old program OGP had where if you spend a certain amount they give you bonus stuff that would really boost sales and not leave such a nasty taste in people's mouths if Luck Isn't on their side :(

    At least bring back the recycle "bottle" feature so we can trade in the garbage for a chance st better stuff.

    the amount of useless crap in the tickets and the drop rate of said useless crap just shows how greedy papaya play are.

    They don’t give a damn about the customers.


    And now with so many top spec and fast trade ships and now steam ships in the game it’s a multi’s dream situation.

    I’m seeing 5 man fleets of 1 RWJ and 4 clarmonts all with similar names all wearing same clothes when in port.

    This game is now 80% nanban (most multi’s) 15% adventure and 5% maritime.

    I need a faster rower in the tickets to catch these guys.

    I would agree that the trade ships they have been releasing are very top end while anything a pirate could use has been much less appealing.

    It's bad enough a pirate has to grind rowing twice to get a ship even close to keeping up with a ship a trader does not have to do anything to use at those speeds.

    At least we have item plunder back, oh wait that's gone now too!

    It is what it is.....

    One question slightly off topic: how did they accidentally nerf item plunder while the update had nothing to do with plunder? They should not have been messing with that portion of the code.

    Sorry for the rant, I miss my LLM.
  • HelloAllHelloAll Posts: 701Member Intermediate
    What makes me laugh culvern is in the notice the posted they said something like “the update apparently nerfed plunder”.
    Do they not look at the update before they do it? When I get an iPhone update i check what changes are coming before I do it.

    Other than the agile la royale that dropped very few tickets all the other rowers have been the same ship with different names and they are pretty slow.

    pirates are a small portion of the game now so I’m sure papaya don’t care.

    But I don’t see how these traders can enjoy endless nanban in fleets.
    When you see these fleets of 5 now with Clarmonts, they have what 7k nanban goods on them, which the stick amongs the mass of aides at sev market keeper....where’s the fun? What do they even spend the money on?

    I don't get it either.
    Everyone has their own interests I guess.
    I just don't see the point in doing something that always has the same outcome.
    When you are a trader there is no real variable to your game other than what % you will earn, your outcome is a guarantee.
    Same with adventure (as far as I know, never did much of it) every quest you are guaranteed to follows predetermined course.
    As I see it only piracy and BHing have no certainty. You don't know if you will find, catch, or defeat someone.
    I need that uncertainty to keep me interested, but everyone is different.
  • rangerzfanrangerzfan Posts: 96Member Beginner
    those fleets of nanbanners are going to use the money on blue flags so they can continue to go go go get those EA goods. Getting LLMs are not going to make your game any funner. You will just find out the trader or Adv is blue flagging faster. Or you might get a Trib faster. Culvern, you talk about being in a boring in-game rut, but getting tributed or blue flagged all the time seems a little boring too. Oh well, enjoy what is left.

    just make sure you take screen shots of the 5 fleet cheaters using same type toons or same names. i reported a few and never seen them again who knows maybe papaya is at least going to try and stop them. or if not stop them make the blue flags for accounts caught cheating un-usable 

    as for the pirate plunder item nerf i think certain items shouldn't be able to be taken. those really rare items you can find maybe only once in game or really expensive shop gear. other then that steal away most things can be found or bought again
