In eager anticipation for the upcoming maintenance, I’m excited to see some pesky bugs being addressed that have undeniably impacted the quality of my gameplay. The much-awaited “Coercive Growth” helm upgrade, which many of us pirates have been eagerly waiting for, has unfortunately turned out to be a bit of a tricky situation. As UbiNeptune, our trusted developer, has pointed out, there’s been an issue where players like myself have unintentionally lost some hard-earned Pieces of Eight (Po8) upon activating the upgrade. This glitch was particularly frustrating for those in the midst of factory upgrades. A player expressed their displeasure, stating, “I suffered significant losses until I realized I was losing between 10k-20k Po8s. I had to halt my upgrades due to the ongoing deductions.” It seems that many players are keeping a close eye on whether the promised fixes will actually prevent future losses and potentially even offer some form of reparation—though it’s important to note that no definitive decisions have been made as of yet. As the posts suggest, patience, while commendable, is starting to wear thin among players, especially those who have already invested a considerable amount of resources.
