Upgrade of Season Pass(unlimited Rewards after 100levl)

@kryz57 but why? why do we need an endless grind for minimal rewards? The gold and doubloons in a plunder pass are already meaningless.

No.

Plunder Pass is already stupid.

You can't even get enough AC to buy the next one.

The gold and doubloons are pocket change. You could earn the entire Plunder Pass gold and doubloons returns in a single play session.

Leave it as it is. Don't encourage them to add anything to it.

@captain-coel because of i take 100 level after 2 week and it will be modest reward but will be nice. I think nobody will grind rewards but it will be a little bonus while you plaing

@kryz57 Thats what your daily deeds are for. They dont need anything more than that imo.

@ottyman8687 why should you earn enough ancient coins to buy the next one? That would make it buy 1 get them all free.

@captain-coel

Because that is how every pass in existence works. You are literally defending the most predatory money-making scheme in modern Gaming.

Seriously, name 3 games that don't let you earn the next Battle Pass because I can name 100000 that do.

It already preys on FOMO and if that isn't bad enough, the PP gets 100x more love than the actual game now. I mean look at season 6 launch, skeleton ships were broken, rubber-banding was and still is an issue and we lost Arena.

Yet PP was released without a hitch. And they're demanding more money from us which people defending it will happily hand over without realising they are being scammed.

Every Plunder Pass purchased is £10 telling Rare that releasing broken updates and using such a stupid battle pass system is ok.

@ottyman8687 the freepass gets more than the paid pass every time. name another pass that does that? I dont feel that buying 1 pass should get you the rest in perpetuity thats just dumb.

Its meant to be a discount on a future emporium set and nothing more and they do a good job keeping it that way.

I wont defend the brokeness of the update. It was pure bad. It just tells me that 1 team has their stuff together and others dont. This game has always been 2 steps forward and several steps back/sideways. I wish updates were flawless. But I dont feel that the plunderpass is predatory. And the paid plunderpass is def not fomo. all of it enters the emporium.

This only works for people who actually max 100 all the time. And let face it.

1. not every grinds
2. some seasons don’t have the rewards worth trying.

@ottyman8687 that’s not a good argument. Every other game that has the premium pass either give you more rewards or give you time limited ones. This doesn't do either. All this does it gives you a discount on upcoming Emporium items. And you won’t miss out on anything if you decide to not buy it.

@ottyman8687 dont focus on the plunder pass side, focus on the free side.

I dont think its necessarily a bad idea, though i think OP worded it weirdly. I think they're effectively saying that Renown is useless at level 100 and a consistent player will reach level 100 very early on which makes renown and Trails completely useless. So after level 100 there would be a set amount of renown to get and once you get that you get given a sum of gold or doubloons, and you can infinitely spam that until the end of the Season. I think its actually a pretty good idea, however I don't think the Plunder Pass (Paid version) is necessary to give a boost to. Also giving Ancient Coins is never gonna happen if you can in theory infinitely spam it. you'd get Alliance servers that find the best possible renown grind and they'd be hard farming hundreds or thousands of ancient coins a day.

@frogfish12

Yeah I realise now I might not have thought my argument through properly.

It's just that the Season 6 launch and the game in general as of recent times seems to be taking a significant quality drop and I genuinely think PP and PE is to blame. The PP here is definitely better than it is done in other games, it just seems to be taking centre stage though at this point.

• We lost Arena
• No Commendation locked cosmetics like every other season
• Ridiculous Rubber-banding issues
• Skeleton Ships were broken
• "Content" is essentially the same fort copy pasted 6 times with minor changes.
• little thought in placing forts (the one at Sea Dogs Rest literally overlaps the two island names making them almost illegible)

Yet all the paid stuff was completely fine. If this is a one off then it should be ok, but I worry that now they got away with it once, they may make this a regular thing. The PP and PE should only be worked on after the actual game is finished

@ottyman8687 Agreed, its pretty ridiculous that the Sea Forts gave no cosmetics or rewards. Season 5 commendations gave us full Party Boat ship weapon and clothing set, and Midnight Blade Clothing set, and a title for 100%. Season 4 gave us a Scar a Tattoo, 3 missing weapons, the missing shipset parts, a curse, and a 100% title. Season 6 gives literally nothing and its pretty laughable. Obviously they're gonna have stuff for the new PL voyage but that makes the sea forts feel like they got rushed out when they weren't ready and hadn't gotten any rewards made for it.

I didn't think I'd miss arena as much as I do. Especially as I spend the last few weeks grinding and it was nice as it was something I could solo quite casually and still get a lot of progress, and now that arenas gone it feels like a massive gap in the game.

I think this is a good idea, further levels will not be counted anywhere, it's enough to make them naminal, just to encourage the player, even if you get an additional 10 ancient coins for 100 levels from above, it will not break the balance, and even if players play 24/7, they will not be able to feed more than 40 coins. This is a modest reward, but encouraging. Gold cannot be counted at all, because these 2-3k of gold will immediately be lost in the mining stream, you can't even buy a box with cores for this amount. I like this idea.

So clearly the reason we have the PP and want an expansion is to keep people playing.

Stop spoon-feeding the casuals money. They can play, sink, and earn money like the rest of us with piracy.

Leave the PP as is. If we want people to keep playing, give them a decent goal. E.g. a cosmetic. Easy way to do this? Gold to AC conversion.

100 AC = 1.5mil gold

Now you have a gold sink, a goal for people and more people playing. All sides win.

And none of that "it will damage their profits" any good company prioritises their consumers over profits. Otherwise you're not a company but a greedy corporation
