This is a great thing to point out. This update was just....there. The Hawk promo was just a weird addition and 90% of the Pirate101 new "content" is just badly grindy bosses or packs
As a newly returned player this kind of stuff makes me really frustrated. My rediscovery of my love for this game is being overshadowed by absolute frustration with Kings Isle.
Even though this game hasn't been massively updated in a long time, it's a good thing for me considering Wizard101 is so confusing for me now with the spell weaving and other useless mechanics they introduce every year and eventually abandon. Pirate101 brings more simplicity and it lets me enjoy the game how I enjoyed the game when I was a kid
I agree, I am very disappointed that they have locked this behind RNG. On a positive note, at least it is not main story content. Hawkulies is not a very good companion, and his promotion adds nothing to the story 🗿
My thing is, I understand why they don’t do a lot of content for Pirate either because of the size of the team for pirate being small or the head of kingisle doesn’t want to do a lot for pirate or both! Why can’t they hire more developers or use some developers from wizard101 to help the small team create more content??!
Pirate101 should have more contents... Like remake NPC textures/models, remake player models, more levels, new worlds, new skyways, new dungeons, new Puppet Shows, and more. Also KI should fixed bugs and errors in Pirate101.
I believe Sam talked aa bit about this, it sounds like for more Pirate content to come out, they need to take time or effort away from Wiz development (suggesting that there is few to no Pirate-only devs), which would explain why they don't want to pull time away from their most profitable game. That said, I do still agree that either they need to put more devs on this game, or need to be transparent that they can't give us large-scale updates. As much as I really want to see this game prosper, I hate seeing the state of the game with these really rushed and buggy updates. It really makes me wonder if it is worth all the effort if they are not going to put in enough effort to make it great.
It gets even worse when you realize the hawk promo was specifically just damage control to keep matthew anderson from being fired. It didn't work, but they did try to make people forget about what he did
Personally, I find it hard to believe that this was put together in between Hawk's firing and it's release, and if it was, then they definitely can give us more than what we are getting. If not, then this was either planned ahead of time before Hawk's firing or that they foresaw the pushback of his firing and tried to make this to make up for it. I lean more toward this being more of a coincidence than anything, but it is still very bizarre.
I been playing this game since it came out and I still play it today and still love the game. It’s just very sad that the game is not getting a lot of love now. It’s either because the P101 team is small or something else is going on. All I did on my main pirate (Swashbuckler) is just farm stuff and collect companions including booster pack ones while waiting for something new, regardless I still love the game, it just needs some improvement.
We're in a BS loop where KI doesn't add content for the game, so we eventually stop playing the game, so they can't justify new content for the game.
ONE PIECE of content
😭

to be fair the winter witch pack released on wiz and pirate at the same time unlike previous port packs
That’s good to hear

Pirate101 really should have a texture update. :(
Agreed

I always never forgot about bad things Matthew did.
@InternetMonsterBoi me neither

How's your adaptation of the pirate101 story going?
@cowardlykevin great, the krok we deserve is coming up sooner rather than later
Spent 120k crowns on troggy pack, only got one companion 😭
Noooooo
