  1. Hello, Pirate Storm community and developers! I hope you are all doing well.
    I'm writing today to suggest an idea I recently saw in another Bigpoint game (DarkOrbit) that I believe would be a fantastic addition to Pirate Storm. I'm referring to a system similar to their "Omega Tactical System" — an official, in-game auto-player.
    Before I detail my suggestion, please allow me to provide some context on the current state of the game:
    The Challenge:
    • Progression Gap: As an MMORPG, Pirate Storm is all about progression. However, it requires a huge time investment. This makes it very difficult for new players to catch up to veterans who have been playing for years, creating a significant gap and a slow start for newcomers.
    • Third-Party Bots: The intense grind encourages the use of illegal third-party bots and programs. This is against the rules, creates an unfair environment, and harms the game's long-term health.
    • Game Economy: The main premium currency, Diamonds, is crucial for progress. However, acquiring them in large quantities requires a significant financial investment, which is not feasible for every player around the world.
    The Proposal: An Official Auto-Play System
    My suggestion is to implement an official, in-game automation tool, inspired by systems already present in other Bigpoint titles. This would provide a legitimate, safe, and permanent alternative to illegal bots.
    I know the first question is: "Why would players pay for something they can get for free with illegal bots?" The key is to make the official system more valuable and rewarding.
    Here’s how it could work:
    1. A New Premium Tier: Introduce a new, upgraded premium membership plan. For example, if the current premium is around $3.50 USD/month, this new tier with the automation feature could be priced at around $10 USD/month.
    2. The Core Incentive: To make this new tier highly attractive, it should significantly increase the daily cap for farmable in-game currency. For example, players with this active premium plan could have their daily Diamond limit raised from the current maximum of ~6,000 to ~15,000 Diamonds.
    Why This is a Win-Win Solution:
    • For Players: This provides a safe and legitimate way to progress. The massively increased Diamond cap makes the subscription incredibly valuable and, in the long run, would far outweigh the benefits of any illegal bot. It would dramatically help new and existing players evolve their accounts.
    • For Bigpoint/The Game: It directly combats the use of unauthorized programs. It creates a new, stable revenue stream to support the game's servers and future development. Over a few months, the player base would naturally shift from risky illegal tools to the superior, official, and more rewarding in-game system.
    Thank you for your time and consideration. I believe a system like this could breathe new life into the game, level the playing field, and ensure a healthier, more sustainable future for Pirate Storm.
    Best regards,

    I really hate the idea of any kind of autoplay on this game, in particular if it increases the diamond limits. Farming is a big part of the game and it's what makes the game still somewhat playable. If suddenly anyone can have an autoplay that even increases its diamonds, the whole point of the game will just to let the autoplay farm diamonds for you, then you buy your upgrades during events and that's all.
    There's no point in playing at all.
    The only acceptable solution to cheaters is the ban and the only solution to botted acount is to implement some anti-cheats in the game.
    I mean it's not even that hard adding a captcha-like pop-up when you get sinked, verifying accounts that stays online for a long time without ever logging out etc... and it would drastically reduce the number of bot.
