If you joined POTCO last year or so... beta is now open for you to get sneak previews. I heard some people got some good screen shots.

Also - The new fan site is not a new oppertunity to get a "mod job". It's exactly the same as this one - with the same mods. Oh and yes, first few members get free signature. I was member #28 so got sig.

I only joined POTCO yesterday... I'm waiting on some screenies to see if I'll like the game. Hehe.

wrong, public play (official opening) starts in spring.

I'll join after I get a name on the game.
I can hardly wait.

I had some trouble getting the system to accept my name. I tried Qui-gon, Qui-gon123, and (the random) Qui-gon038. All said my name was already taken. But, I'm on there as "Shogg". And when I searched "Qui-gon" on the members list, nothing popped up. I had the same thing happen when I joined here. I might just PM a mod over there and ask them to change it. I feel bad though, the site is so new and all.

That's because we don't allow nick with - in them. If you want a name change, just send an admin a PM on the pirates forum.

Oh, okay. But when you guys change it, I guess it goes through. Well, I PMed Silly over there so I think it'll work. Thanks!

Also, I see EKB is on there...

The site is probably the best looking of them all. I like the PG-13 rating on it.it nice cool to see the site grow because i was a member before the offical opening.

Queen.Midas · #8 03-14-2007, 06:07 PM

What does it mean when it is PG rated?

Well, since the game involves killing, a little bit of blood, and (supposedly) rum, the site is rated PG because the game itself will probably have a PG-like rating. So in order to talk about the game, you have to have the site PG.

For instance, VMK is a G-Rated game, so is VMKF. On VMKF you can't really get into much detail about killing, alcoholic drinks and such. But with the Pirates site, you can.

Quick question, I saw that some people have joined like in January, and not just the mods. I was wondering how did they know that the site even existed?

Is the same as a movie rate.

This game looks like it's going to be a real hit! I can't wait to play, and the site looks great! Oh, and Acepowerboy.. you forgot NC-17 @_@

Awesome new borad, but needs a logo.

I can do that for you.

Questions:
How do you become a beta tester?
How do you pay?
How much is it?

Jurassic park fan · #14 03-14-2007, 10:43 PM

Do you have to pay to play this game? ( I am uninformed )

ratcat · #15 03-14-2007, 10:51 PM

I signed up as a Beta tester about a year and a half ago. Then again last year. I got an email on Friday saying to fill out the info to get a key. Yesterday a few of us got our keys.

Two things. You have to have 1GB RAM in your computer or the game just doesn't play. One of my friends had 512 RAM and the rooms would take forever to load and jerky. Another couldn't get into making the character. So everybody is running off getting more RAM for their machines.

The Beta version, you don't need to pay. It crashes a lot (that's why its Beta). For people under 18, you need your parents permission. For everybody that downloaded it, you had to provide a credit card as proof I guess of your age (not sure why). But they aren't using it to be charged.

Like somebody previously said, when it comes out in a few months there will be a paid version and a free version. Free version not as much stuff and suppose to have ads with it. I doubt I would pay for the paid version of this, since it seems quite expensive.

We are also walking around with strange titles (two of us have the same title). I'm assuming our titles have to be approved.
