Is there a way to get rid of the pearls as a reward or make it choice between pearls and some type of units? I have over 500 pearls that I can not use on the same line barrles I have maxed them out also and still keep getting them unless your going to up levels write something into the program to stop giving them out to players that have reach level 14 on all. 

No, there are no alternatives for pearls and barrels, nor do I think that they'll implement something like that.

That's the destiny of all old accounts. You probably have abundance of idols as well.

what abou making a part of the upgrades to higher levels some pearls as well as gems etc

Not sure what you mean. Add more pearl levels? And the gems part escapes me entirely.

Btw, I don't think that this game is ever getting any more updates beyond maybe new Presidios and/or Prizes levels.

Thank you for the nice package offerings, however, there is little point in buying them on Server3 as S3 has been severely limited in expansion. Players are leaving and activity levels are dropping. Plarium's income must be dropping as well. There are many dedicated players on S3 and most feel as I do. Server1 has 424 Presidios, S3 only has 121. Conceivably, 8 BHs could have level 30 Bastions on S1, but only 2 BHs could on S3. If 2 BHs on S3 took that many the rest of the server would die and a majority of people would be quitting. There needs to be growth potential for all BHs for all players to remain interested and income growth for Plarium to happen.

Here are my suggestions for S3:

1. Drop 300 presidios on S3, in groups of 100 for 3 months. This should allow many BHs to capture Presidios and players wanting to buy packages. Try it at least once and see how income increases!!

2. Add a row and an optional storage column in Skeleton Cave

3. Increase Prestige levels

4. Add TI separation levels above 100 similar to that below 100

5. Increase levels in Witch Doctor Hut

6. Add more or increase current rewards for Idols, e.g. increase limit of log book

7. Add ability to set default resource transfer option when transferring resouces instead of always defaulting to Rum

8. Add ability to sort Presidios on distance in Brethren Court

9. Stop giving useless scout relics when prizes are attacked

10. Eliminate market trading limits on S3 

Also there are a large number of bot havens, some of which are active. Some are in BHs. They seem to have an unlimited supply of fire ships and rubies and were able to advance through the discoveries faster than any normal player. Plarium doesn't care?

Some of the "dead" ones send out this message:

I've pinged Plarium about your suggestions, but it was already past my contact's working hours on Fri. I expect to get back to you on Monday evening (European time).

It's holiday season and it'll obviously take longer. Sorry about that. But I didn't forget, and I hope to get back to you on this by the next Wednesday.

I got a repsonse for you:

We have been developing "Pirates" for many years, gradually making it more and more challenging, competitive, and complex. Until we have now arrived at the point where we have decided that it’s best to switch to a much less active development pace than before. It means that we will not be adding new features to the game or implementing game improvement suggestions. However, "Pirates" will keep fully functioning and getting all-encompassing support from us.

New content aimed at enhancing the current gameplay will keep appearing, tournaments and events will keep going according to the standard schedule, and our regular free gifts and gift codes will remain consistent. The teams will keep attending to the gameʼs optimal performance.

As for the spam-bots, please report them to the Support or let me know their maps and coords, and they'll be quickly banned.

What Grey Panther posted, about server 3 needs to happen for this server to move fwd, thx

Thank you for the response.

The most important thing S3 needs is more presidios. Something that is available on the other servers. S1 & S2 have unowned presidios. S3 has no unowned presidios. Is there a reason that S3 is restricted in the number of presidios? Is it not desirable for S3 to grow? 

Whenever the subject of Presidios and Prizes came up, I was told that Plarium bases these decisions on the players' activity. What that means exactly is not clear because these decisions are internal, and neither mods, nor CMs, nor the Support are privy to that process.

However, the area covered by the Presidios is much wider on s3 than the area covered by the havens. I don't know if that has any influence on the expansion decisions and, if it does, how important it is. It's just one thing that is quite visible to anyone who looks at the map, and I don't have access to any other activity statistics, making this the only thing that I can consider.

Anyway, the point remains: Plarium has an internal process to this that they are neither sharing nor letting it be influenced by any of us. Sorry, guys.

Wow they don't want to take suggestions from those of us who been playing the game for 10 years now.

Well how does this make sense, there is a BH Event End of Summer Group Upgrade Challenge going on right now. How do I participate in this event when all my upgades on my haven are completed to full capacity? Thus this is why a suggestion was made to make more levels on discoveries and haven builds.

As far as Presidios goes, only the P's to the South are not coved by havens, the ones to the North, East, and West are coved by havens and go out past them about 2 or 3 times around. Also they put in Bastion levels that can not be obtained in Server 3 because of the lack of Presidios. Level 30 is the highest level for Bastions, In order to get to that level, you would need 2 BH's with 55 Presidios each to and knocking them down 1 bastion level to gain a level. Right now on Server 3, we have 121 Presidios so that would mean only 2 BH's would have to control almost the entire MAP to reach this level.

How about Plarium atleast go up the East side of the map, across the North side of the map, and down the West side of the map on Server 3 and make it more intersting for those of us who play this server.

Another question is why are the 50/50 offense and defense offered by themselves on server 1 but only in packages on servers 2 and 3 ......   Why can't we grow give us some incentives to play like you do on server 1  why build a server if you have no intention for it to progress ? 

Greeting, Captain! I see your point; thanks for sharing it!

Hi, Captain! All packs are offered in the game on an individual basis. Therefore, offers on the servers may vary.
