Suggestion Alt Server Solution Where All Your Dreams Come True!

[Crashalot]

Just like many theme parks and carnivals have a kiddie ride area for the toddlers, TLOPO should have an alt server where everything is easy and requires little to no effort.
Pirates would have the option of starting their pirate off right at level 50 and fully maxed.
Ammo pouches would be infinite and loot drops would only be loot skulls full of gold, brights, db, famed and legendary weapons.
Ships would be given right from the get go at full max upgrades of whatever your pirate desires, and have no limits on how many ships you can instantly own.
A pirate can never be defeated in battle or sunk while sailing.
Sailing would be under AI, so all you have to do is board your ship, and it does the rest, sinking everything in sight for you and loading you up with the best loot possible, every time. OK, boarding your own ship is optional and not required.
Fishing and potions would do themselves as well, maxing your pirate for both in seconds.
There would be no quests unless a pirate wants one, and in such a case, said quest will already be complete once the pirate selects it.
In fact, pirates won't even need to log into the game, as their pirates will play by AI, even when they're not logged in, round the clock.
Your pirate will always win every battle, sink every ship and get every legendary, famed or cursed weapons automatically, just because.
We can all quit our jobs and move to Fiji.
It can be one of the alt servers, where every pirate is special, because when all of the pirates are special, none of them are...
Savor it!

Why does the poll not have this option

 

[Eric Sailcutter]

I picked all of the above. In all seriousness I like the idea of a server where you could go and try out all the best and coolest stuff. I would make it so that your pirates would not get anything from it other than the experience of trying the best ships and weapons for fun.

TLOPO have enough servers but ''alt server'' it is good suggestion but I don't think this have to be added in the game!
because if alt server is added and ''every legendary, famed or cursed weapons are automatically'' just friendly to say that will not be fair for everybody that is grinding at Tormenta or RC for hours...

 

[Sam Dampflint]

why .-.

I feel that if an alt server was added, people would drop normal play and ultimately switch to the alt server. Once you have everything you want, there really isn't any reason to play.

 

[Driftarr]

The humor here... But yeah it kind of feels like this is what a lot of people want.

While I get where you're coming from, I don't believe this is overall beneficial to the game in the long run. Something that is important for stories and games is a sense of progression, and particularly in video games an incentive to improve or obtain something of value. If this server were to exist, the incentive to get these things will diminish drastically, and the overall enjoyment of the game is ruined.

Another thing to keep in mind is that having literally zero challenge (while entertaining at first) can only work for so long, and by long I mean a few hours at most before it becomes ridiculously repetitive.

If anything I think TLOPO needs a server that's the opposite of what you're suggesting, a server that is more challenging (excluding drop rates because RNG is not what I consider a challenge) but that's getting a bit off topic so I'll just leave it at that.

OK, I get your point, but... what about quitting our jobs and moving to Fiji?

Why does the poll not have this option

Because the poll is a joke and the thread a thinly veiled slap at other members.
I say close the thread period.

And because that's what I have on the PBS pirate game and you all can't come.

Are you kidding? I would play even if loot was dropped from the game entirely. I love the sailing even though I almost never get anything from it. I would hope that if such a server were opened it would be like the old POTCO test server where you have a separate account and statistics , reputation, and skill points are not transferrable or maybe don't even factor in if every character is started with max everything.

Waste of development resources and would be difficult. There are not even commands (AKA cheat codes or magic words) that can accomplish half of this stuff. You're asking for too much for something the majority does not want and its a waste of time that can be spent on recreating the POTCO we all know and love.

I'm not suggesting such a thing is important or should be implemented any time soon. I think it might not be very hard to give characters full rep and skill points to spend as they like with retraining for free plus a chest preloaded with every weapon in the game and ship cost of zero. That way you could basically try out everything including things like the SOTL. It wouldn't be for regular game play but more just a test server.

You're asking for them to host/purchase an entirely different server that they'd then have to host a new, custom server on. I don't know if you have any experienced with recreating any of these Disney games (POTCO included), so I won't assume anything. However, I do have first-hand experienced and will tell you that it is harder than you think it is. Also, this community is the community of a POTCO-recreation, not a POTCO-reimagination. All I'm going to say.

Good idea considering the whole thread is poking fun at certain people who want everything handed to them on a silver platter.

It's called Tlopo beta!
